Adding some Economics to strengthen this argument

Wild cards have a lower circulation than the new editions and would have their bonuses impacted and negated at higher tiers. It feels strange to give Alpha and Beta card pack bonuses and then negate them by implementing this change.

For example, in Wild the total print was
300,000 Alpha Packs
900,000 Beta Packs
200,000 Essence Orbs
300,000 Azmare Dice

Compare that to our Modern Format
1,500,000 Untamed Packs
15,000,000 Chaos Legion Packs
3,000,000 Riftwatcher Packs
There have been significantly more packs for Modern than Wild Cards
50X compared to Azmare and Alpha 75X for Essence Orbs and 16.67X for Beta

Modern also provides more rewards per battle than Wild and has consistently since implementation this is also where many bots focus league-wise.

This makes the relatively cheaper editions earn more SPS and drains the pool for new players due to botting while punishing older players who own older edition cards and play in the wild format since they may not have or want to sell out their older edition cards that cannot be played in the modern format.

The main bots are also concentrated in Gold Silver and Bronze Leagues, the argument on Diamond and Champion level bots is rare given the case Modern pays more SPS than Wild per battle at the lower leagues.

The area that concerns me is the need to max out Legendary cards in older sets where it may not make sense and honestly is far more expensive for fewer rewards than the modern format to avoid penalties in Diamond and Champion lv 3 Legendary GF vs lv 2 Alpha or Beta GF would cost 2225 USD at a minimum if you already have one GF card.

This proposal makes sens at lower levels, however, it doesn't make sense to apply it to Diamond and Champion uniformly, I don't see a problem with high-level Bots I see a problem with CP exploits.

Honestly, what needs to happen is draining the players rating slowly when they don't have the required CP (or Power).
That is a huge RED FLAG for people double dipping.
@just2randoms picture in the SPS Dao proposal.
If they don't have the 'Power' for that league then each day their rating is reduced and helps the active players push past them.

I respectfully disagree with the current proposal as I feel there are merits to this at Gold and below where botting is more prevalent.

However, CP costs in Higher Tiers and napping accounts are where the problem lies in Diamond and Champion not botting.

As this proposal stands I don't like the uniform approach that this proposal implies and would like to see it tailored to the lower league gameplay first before applying it to the higher rulesets.

I would vote yes if the proposal impacted Gold League and Below initially

With a separate test if the bots become a larger problem at Diamond and Champion I don't like the overall tradeoffs if Bots are primarily gold and below punishing players who have full sets but have not maxed out every single card just does not make sense to me at the higher leagues.
