Yes they give you free cards to help new player but if you really want play net deck some of the really good one are closet 20000 dust to play. Even if you buy the $80 per-order not going give all the cards because just one set your talking a few $100 dollars I spent to complete recent one. Now if thinking about whole collection as have complete in maybe closet 1k or more a year. That with bundle , mini sets and card packs.
You can disenchant too. Also it seems you have buyer’s remorse. Some of us are F2P and we enjoy optimizing free to play.

Never but never gonna do them pre-order sets when the gold is easy n quick enough to earn which then translates into some dust for crafting what the gold don’t get me
As before: you won’t get more cards by disenchanting, why do you even bring this up? He is certainly aware about disenchanting.
This is a joke right ???
Not even you can be that far into lunacy street.

When I was playing hearthstone and I wanted to be competitive I put $500 into getting a deck that was a constant winner. Spending that much in one season really took the fun out of the game and I no longer play regular hearthstone only battlegrounds. In fact I have over 200 packs sitting waiting to be opened from a “catch up” event they ran. It’s just too much of a time sink to open 200 packs.
You can mass-open them
Hover over the pack pile for a couple of seconds and all the packs in the pile will merge into one
Move them to the opening section and open with one click
Since september last year

Another day, another post …
Because they whine “the bundles don’t have all the cards”. The bundles can give ANY card you want by disenchanting.
Yes you lose dust value but that does not stop the fact that if you pay you can get any card that can be crafted.
If you disenchanting a single pack of cards you only get maybe a 100 dust at most. I dust like 10 packs of cards and maybe end up with 400 dust at most.
My, you’re quoting something OP never said. Granted his/hers English is not the best but what s/he meant is that s/he is not going to got all the cards by buying 80 bucks bundle.
So unless my reasoning failed me (always a possibility) the OP’s issue is not that s/he cannot get ANY given card from an expansion but ALL the cards from an expansion.
And my point is it doesn’t matter. They’re whining that by paying they didn’t get all the cards.
They CAN get any card if they pay because they can craft (yes they lose dust value also).
If you play regularly for a year you can put an up front investment of FAR less than anything i have seen stated here and be FTP in a year. The only money to optionally spend would be on battle passes throughout the year, which is very little. If you play BG’s regularly and want the 4 choices you would need those 3 as well. Getting a full set for standard and keeping a full set would be done through Packs, dust and what they give for free.
If you spent the Battle Pass it would give you more gold and dust to spend with but you could get away without having it. It’s really not that difficult to do and many players already do it.

F2P probably needs 2 entire rotations to start being comfy (2+ years). That’s because for their first expansion they usually don’t have much gold to get cards anyway and they do more mistakes at crafting efficiency.
Even then it might not be enough to be comfortable; I’m testing this myself; my 2nd rotation is the next.

Just out of curiosity. How many playable decks did you create the first year in each set rotations for that year? That’s probably what most want to know.
You can’t make more than 2 or 3 expensive decks every 4 months. And it depends a lot on how much you save. E.g. I currently save aggressively and I can’t change deck; I started with handbuff but it’s just bad right now for my “specifications”; it hasn’t been a great deck according to how I filter stats of decks for at least 10 days now.
That’s not too bad honestly for your first year doing it that way. If someone spent perhaps on a big bundle at the beginning of a season they could have more i imagine. Seems about right to me overall. If you are expecting more you should probably be spending money at that point.
Mind you that it needs a bit of study to maximize it. E.g. it’s found to be efficient to stop getting simple packs when you get duplicate rares and then start spending on golden packs but only for the 1st legendary.
I could disenchant a lot more but it’s subjective for everyone; e.g. this month I’m kinda stretched at work so I don’t play that well anyway; I choose to be extremely conservative (I dusted almost nothing).
I play semi-regularly, sometimes a couple hours a day and I was never close to getting a full set since I stopped paying money so I would call your claims dubious.
Not too bad considering you need to put two years of work to start enjoying the game in full 
Let’s face it, you either shell out real cash, make HS your second job or stick with one or two classes you love. Choose your poison.
What free to play card game do you play where you have full access to the library of cards? I’ve played Marvel Snap, Runeterra and Shadowverse. All of them have worse onboarding than Hearthstone, and give you far less to play around with. I’m just curious which card game you play that is better at giving you cards than Hearthstone.
