The Bazaar, after seven long years, is finally entering into open beta with a F2P package—and it's, uh, not going great.
Here's the rub: In a recent video going over patch 0.1.8's notes, it was revealed that the autobattler would be receiving a "prize pass"—a battlepass-style earn-via-playing system which'll allow players to grind 10-card expansions for certain heroes, providing they've paid for the premium version. They'll be available for the first month, after which you'll need to purchase them with 999 gems, a currency equivalent to around $10, though gems can also be won with good ranked runs.
