duels and arena rewards are trash; don’t play these mods for the rewards, but play them because you like them.
Expecially before 7 wins, the rewards are just a consolation price; 5 wins isn’t an impressive result to be fair (and I say that even if in arena most of the times I end with 3 wins or less)

5 wins is a very respectable result in duels. most I tend to get recently has been 1 or 2 wins since the expansion, and before that my absolute best run was 9 wins.

I usually get 5-6. But I play casual. Bc I ain’t spending my money or gold. That’s for next expac.

if this chart is still relevant & applicable to duels, 5 wins is actually pretty good.

Anyways, yeah. Reward progression is pretty abysmal. Particularly for the lower win numbers. 5 wins just to be guaranteed to break even is terrible. Wouldn’t mind seeing a bit more normalization there.

Yess bro, trash modesss. Yes ladies and gentlemen, I later received a spreadsheet. the whole reward is ridiculous. 3 concede and so much from now on, I’m sorry the duel is just a little tiring, but the arena is suffering for that reward, it’s awful

if it makes you feel better I went 12-0 and got 2x golden rare cards, 260gold and ofc the pack. Duels and arena rewards are well not as bad as heroic tavern brawls but yeah…
Duels gives rewards? Ive never encountered that… Ive gotten as high as 9 wins before and all i got was a try again later.
Depends on if youre playing Casual Duels or Heroic Duels. Casual has no entrance fee, but also no rewards. Heroic costs 150g to start a run, but you get rewards based on your ending winrate for the run.

Oh I’ve never done Heroic because my average runs in casual run anywhere from 3 losses in a row right away to at best so far, 9 wins. Its been about a year fiddling around in duels and it seems my issue is consistently facing opponents that play a legendary every turn from the start. It is rare I see players not do so. My collection lacks so many legendaries that can apply to a theme or have any type of synergy to try and build a duels deck with 15 legendaries at its start. Currently my best runs are as the paladin with a mech deck and If Im super lucky to get the divine shield buffs (either one or both) and especially the buff that shuffles 2 3 cost copies of a minion when i play one into the deck (its the only way I dont auto lose to Rattlegore). But unless they give decent reward for 0 or 1 wins I’ll stay in casual.
If you get 0 or 1 wins you still get a pack and some gold (usually 25g in my experience). Assuming you still need cards from the current expansion, it’s not terribly bad, given that a pack is worth 100g. If the packs don’t help you, it’s harder to justify the entrance fee based solely on the rewards.
I have like 8 or 9 arena tickets stored away from previous reward tracks. I gave it a shot in arena today. 3 losses in a row right away. One of the matches the enemy player had like a full board of 4/4 to 8/8s by round 4. Redonkulous.
