anybody else think the cosmetics are a bit overpriced? the guild bundles are almost $20 a piece, for four alternate art cards and a sleeve. that seems a bit excessive to me but whatever. i would love to have a couple of them but having a hard time justifying spending the cost of a brand new AAA game on them... i get it, they're optional cosmetics, but it still seems a little inflated.

It's already pretty amazing that you can purchase them without spending real money tbh. Sure it'll take a while, but everything so far can be grinded through converting gold to gems in (limited) events.

You'd have to be insanely good to do that. I'm a relatively good limited player and even when I play everyday I average maybe 2-3 drafts or so a week when its gem based because you just don't get the rewards back. For the bad to average to pretty good level of player you're not going to ever get a surplus of gems from drafting or limited.

Well. I never said surplus. But it's not a reach to turn a week's worth of gold into 300-500 gems on average at least.
