Greetings, it is an interesting proposal, but, in my opinion it should be more refined, what I mean is that, it should be a little more consistent, even so, I understand that it is to draw attention and seek a change in what is the spell book, although I have some observations.
- I am not against increasing the price of the spell book, it can be a good strategy to avoid more abuse from the aggregators.
- However, if the price is increased, it should come with more benefits, for example, a spellbook at 15$ with the possibility of getting 5 to 10 Rebellion packs, although the idea is that newcomers can play with more complete decks.
Another benefit would be to have several "Spellbook" offers, what I mean is that there are certain levels, for example:
Spellbook at 15$: That comes with a SET of 3 level 3 Soulbound Summoners.
Spellbook at 25$: That comes with a SET of level 6 Soulbound Summoners.
Spellbook at 40$: To come with a SET of maximum level Soulbound summoners.
Of course this idea can be modified much better, something that is more balanced, but, the idea is that new users have possibilities to play with good decks (depending on how much they pay). Now if you are wondering what would increase the BOTS farm or more creations of this, the higher the price of the book, the higher the benefits in decks and this would speak of quality players committed to really play the game.
Would the summoners be counted as starter cards? if so why not implement a spellbook level system, letting you pay for a higher lvl spellbook containing starter cards matching the level of the spellbook? That actually sounds useful maybe 0-5 with each lvl costing 10 bucks, maybe even implement a way for old players to burn dec to lvl their spellbooks. With a zero level spellbook letting you play but not giving any starter cards, so youd have to build your own deck.
Yes, my idea is that new users have the desire to acquire any type of spellbook that is ivented, and that can help them build their deck, talk about "Soulbound" cards to avoid the supply of the same, but, from that I think you can build something good and beneficial with spellbooks.
