I've been playing this game for about a year and love it but now that vouchers are available for the Chaos expansion set it seems that people are going crazy.
With my 5000 SPS that are staked I'm likely to get about 40 vouchers over the next month. I was contemplating buying 10 vouchers so I can get my hands on 50 packs guaranteed.
Then I looked at the price. $25 for a voucher to buy a $4 pack. What??? Why???
For those with deep pockets who are going for the 1000 pack presale bonuses and guaranteed Gold foils it might make sense. For those DEC whales who need those premier power cards in gold foils to stay competitive in the Champion leagues perhaps it makes sense.
However, for the rest of us why not sell those vouchers for the $25 and buy the cards we need on the resale market? I'm solidly Silver tier so I don't need that many cards. If I sit on $1,000 from selling all my vouchers I can pick and choose what works best for my battle lines. Overall I'll make for a solid competitor in Silver and be happy there.
If I spend big $$$ on vouchers and get 50 packs I'll be guaranteed 200 common cards and 50 rares with a couple of epic or maybe legendary thrown in. No guarantees they will be what I need or want.
Then again, once the remain 9,000,000 card packs come out maybe I can spend that $1000 to buy 250 packs. Sure I don't get the early adopter bonus but way better chance of picking up some premium cards that way.
So... For all of you who are scrapping to get those vouchers at any cost I would like to say Thank-You! My warchest for purchasing much needed cards on the market is getting fatter by the day.
Happy hunting everyone.
