It would be cool if the Starter cards had, let's say like 50 free uses.
So you could use a "Phantom card" 50 times for free in a battle, but after that you would have to actually buy it.
In 50 battles a person should easily get the feel for the game, and this would give more incentive to actually buy cards, rather than just stay with these phantom cards forever.
I feel that would cause much more harm than good. Unless there was a corresponding reward increase that'll just drive newbies away.
There is no denying that the game is great, but the new/low spender experience is not. We don't need another money siphon from poor to rich players, there's already more than enough they want/need to buy on the market!
Well said!
Agreed. However, I'd go a bit farther and include epic and legendary cards on the basis of random appearance. At least one/no more than 2 splinters have 2 epic and one legendary card for 24 hours.
On that point, League of legends does a thing where they offer all player a few random characters for free for a week. That but with like 5 random epic/legendary cards (maybe even from reward edition) would be nice I think. It could be for all players, starter pack or not
