Who in the right mind thought Duels would be better by including Wild cards into the format? I’ve already deleted all my cards from Wild and not in a million years am I going to craft them for this one feature. As a system, Duels would’ve been a lot of fun, but given that they included Wild cards into the format it’s something I will never take part of.
It’s still labeled as in Beta, so frankly if Blizz doesn’t want Duels to be the red headed step-child of the Game Modes, they need to keep it away from Wild. I’d love to see statistics on how popular Duels is.
Duels exists to make you buy more packs.
You need Wild packs for the legal Wild cards.
You need Standard packs for the hero power & signature treasure.
No other Mode works like this. It’s actually a wonderful way to invalidate what would otherwise be a great mode in the trio.

Personally, I’m never going to play a mode that forces me to buy more packs in order to use all its features.
In constructed, I can invest gold into building decks. Once I have a deck, I can always play it. I don’t have to worry about the cards not in the deck.
In duels, I will always feel as though I’m missing out or disadvantaged because I’m missing hero powers and signature treasures.
Moreover, duels classes are completely unbalanced. Some are good while others are bad. Yet, you don’t get to pick your class out of 10. You have to pick out of 4 random. I don’t like that system. I can’t invest into one class (or even two or three classes) and then play it every time.
Overall, buying packs should be in order to find the cards you need for a specific deck. Buying packs to just unlock a hero power or signature treasure doesn’t feel right to me at all. I’m not about to craft X amount of epic cards in some set just to use a hero power I want in Duels. I have enough trouble trying to craft the cards I want to use in constructed mode so I have no free resources to craft random cards I don’t even want or need.

I like it that I can use all my cards in duels. Only problem is that I dont like that I need epic cards to unlock signature cards and treasures are too random. Also queue times are long and it feels like trying to match me with too good opponents. I would never pay 150 gold to win 1 and lose 3.
It would need a major overhaul. At its current state its complete joke players arent even interested in playing it.
When I was trying to complete my achievements and quest I had 3+ mins queue time when I had 6+ wins.
Duels are fun only real problem 2 of heroes need love bad
you’re really clueless huh.
the mode is still garbage even if you own all the cards.
The mode isn’t bad I think. Just got 4-3 with Priest with her first hero power in the 150 gold mode. That’s better than I do in Arena these days. Its also nice that you can practice with free Duels before you go to the paid Duels, or just stick to free Duels if you want.
