You're pretty much spot on with the issues I've been having. I spent around 30$ on the spellbook and some packs but still I'm being destroyed by everyone once I got into Bronze league. The couple of wins I managed to get was due to the badly scripted bots you mentioned. Every now and then I would perhaps beat a player.
It would take around 50 games to get 5 wins for the daily quest and I felt like the only way to progress and get some wins would be to buy more packs. It just felt like it was pay 2 win in the early game and I gave it up.
I check back in every now and then and play some matches but I always get burned out after 15-20 minutes. Either I forget I'm playing because I'm waiting for the match to start and get a free win or I get destroyed. It's just not fun. Feels bad after spending 30$ on it, but oh well.
Let's hope the early staged will be improved upon!
Thanks for your feedback and really sorry to hear you are struggling. The game gets amazing once you manage to get more cards and advance a bit. We just need to help players like yourself to actually get there!

I check back after every season to collect my chests. One day I’ll break the barrier.
