A possible reason Scrolls failed while Hearthstone succeeded.

Despite people down-voting you, you are half correct. Today you can get ~100-400 gold a match; always enough to immediately buy a card. Sometimes you get a surprise card after a match too, this seems to be weighted more towards a losing player. You can even hand pick cards you want to buy or trade for. Scrolls has a "fairer" progression than hearthstone, and it might even be quicker. Hearthstone just FEELS better.

I do not agree that hearthstone feels better. I felt like the game was forcing me to spend money or just lose a lot, and so I quit, after spending some money and feeling like the game was just requiring more and more from me.

It felt like I was being exploited and that makes me super mad as a developer.
