I support this as an ftp player; they're constantly inflating prices for something that's simply digital.

Look, we had an honest deal going on— I pay you for the pass bundle every few weeks, I get to play the game with enough packs and incentives to keep going. I may buy the occasional cosmetic on top, but I didn’t feel gouged— the game was a service and I respected that. Very much do not like changing the deal here.

WOTC this is your way of telling me that you don't want my money for this game, so I won't be giving it to you anymore. This was the only thing in the shop I would spend money on nearly every standard set even with the increase in number of sets per year and the overall lower quality of gameplay since you don't really test things anymore for real formats since all upside / F.I.R.E. design and the mandate to just throw overpushed commander trash in every set and then force all those sets into standard.

The mastery pass pre order is almost the only thing I spend real money on - please bring it back.

Bring back the Pass Bundle!

So greedy to take this away from us. I’m seriously considering dropping this game because of this.

you turned my money I was giving you, back into money I'm not giving you now. good job

This is a pure greed decision and not the first one. Like the special guest cards that are unlikely to get out of packs and basically craft only. If the greed course not change I will not spent any dime on MTG or Hasbro products anymore.

"Why remove the Pass Bundle? Simply put, it wasn't doing what we had hoped."

It simply doesn't matter what "you had hoped" the Pass Bundle would do -- removing it is a gigantic middle finger to players. People liked the Pass Bundle and they were paying for it, and they wanted to keep paying for it. By removing it, you are telling those people -- "Hey, I don't care that you liked this, it wasn't making me enough money, so I am deleting it."

When you have nothing but disdain and contempt for your players, why would we keep playing your game?

It's like they're trying to make in-universe sets fail

Was already mostly F2P. Guess they're making the choice easier for me.

Horribly greedy. I only justified spending money on arena because the pass bundle was a decent deal. I think I'll be saving money from now on if this doesn't come back.

"Why remove the Pass Bundle? Simply put, it wasn't doing what we had hoped."

Which was what? Not making you enough money?

The only thing I'd ever consider spending money on in this game. Without it you're not getting a cent out of me.

So I guess my $42.38 for each set release was not enough for you so you had to eliminate the pass bundle which actually saved money on the pass if you preordered it and then jacked up the price of the play bundle. I would get both the pass bundle for $14.99 plus tax and the play bundle for $24.99 plus tax for every set but now you have double the price of the play bundle (and while you do give more tokens I don't see double the value of it plus maybe I don't want to have to spend $50) and remove the pass bundle all together. This just seems like pure greed to me.

You claim the following: "Why remove the Pass Bundle? Simply put, it wasn't doing what we had hoped.", "In contrast, when you previously preordered the Pass Bundle, you'd have the Set Mastery ready to ascend but no tools from the new set to use in advancing. This created an experience that was more frustrating than rewarding."

This is missing the whole point. The pass bundle allowed you to save $5 on the pass by preordering it early, what the heck is frustrating about saving $5. This whole thing is just greed, I cannot see any other reason behind it, it does not make sense, and I agree with others that I will not be buying anything else from arena until the pass bundle is brought back other than maybe the pass each set if I still feel it offers a good value at the increased price.

Please sir Please, bring it back.

this the only way i grind. bring it back.

No more spending money on this game until the pass bundle is back. Why would I spend $50 USD on a pack bundle when only the shocklands and maybe a few other cards will see play in standard.

I haven't spent any money on Arena since the Omenpaths debacle-- was considering a bundle for this but the rampant, runaway greed from WOTC can't be accepted. I know they won't address this so they will not get another dollar from me. BE BETTER.

Congratulations on being one of the most greediest companies 🎉👏
