Massive CX Inflation?

[Larry_Xu]

Hello, I returned from yet another hiatus from Eredan. This time, I see the usual: OP cards released, more powercreep, and same metas. However, I noticed that almost every card requires more crystals to buy with.

For ex, was worth at most 50k cx 2-3 months ago, and it is now well above 100k cx to get it "cheap". This huge jump of prices applies to almost every card...what happened?

nothing new, the rich players keep getting richer, the other ones the opposite


is harder to get good stuff from the veteran boosters, thats why old card are more and more expensive as time passes by

Not just Acts 1-7, Same with Act 8 -10 and even Basic...
Fireball / RoD are a prime example... Fireballs used to be around 11-13k but have been around 30k+ recently... RoD are just ridiculous atm ( They aren't worth 60k+!!! )...

less people are spending in the game maybe that is the problem

Or that it's just so difficult for F2P players to get "Sellable" Cards... Even the Basic Set Booster is a hard slog with Free Feez Videos... Getting a Newcomers Booster with Champions Medallions isn't much better...

Supply of new stock in the Marketplace is limited for the "useful" cards... Price goes up...
Killer Cards ( Tracker Ball / Menacing Sky etc ) are expensive... Price goes up on everything else to pay for them...
Upgrade Cards ( Master Linker Cane etc ) are expensive... See previous point...

The current Marketplace is making it almost impossible for a F2P player to be reasonably competitive without a massive amount of grind... And there is little incentive to spend real cash on Feez for boosters and still get butt-kicked by the same decks that kept kicking you before...

Case in point...
6x Fireball @ 30k to get 3x RoD... 4x Black Chimera @ 30k ( 1 to upgrade Ardrakar )...
So your Basic WB is already 180k and Nehant 120k...
The Basic Set should not be that expensive if you want to grow the player base...
