No, it’s actually not. Unless your calling Mage Tower a battle pass.
And posting the definition does not convince me you know what a battle-pass is. Infact, you’re making this concern a joke now.
And further trivialize the word and make it mud pretty much?..
I can tell you right now, it pretty much plays like every other game that has mini meta challenges, and i’ve listed them.
Something you’ve yet to touched upon. 
Meanwhile i’ve remembered that i’ve added this in another thread. 
And i’ve said, if your problem is with FOMO, i can see your point.
As if it is right now, you’re just misusing the word “Battle pass”, when that’s not really your problem. Until the day the trading post becomes monetized, i will not agree with you on this one.
I would have a lot more respect if you’re talking about FOMO. As cliche it is, it holds a level of truth with the Trading post.
Because using that against you, is meant to point out how silly your logic is and how your issue is misguided. And glad you pointed out how silly your logic is and how misguided your problem is.
Tell me you don’t know what implications are without telling me you don’t know what implications are.
