Oh yes they did. For me the adventure part makes even less sense, but I have no doubt that they wouldn't do that again as well.
Agree also, did not like these last time. Took away some of the newness of the expansion.
I really don't like these inn-vitations. they kinda take the hype away from day one of the expansions release.
Yeah, even if you don't watch, most people will. Last time it was already discovered that bomb warrior was op and the first day everyone played the same deck.
"most people will" - where's your evidence for that? There are tens of millions of players. These streams get only a small fraction of that number of views.
Arguably it didn't take a genius to figure out bomb warrior was going to be good. I didn't watch the stream, but opened Blastmaster Boom and the rest of the bomb package, so there you go. I don't know how many people are actually watching this and how much that influences the first experience playing yourself, but I don't think it's really a big issue.
I agree, I rather try out stuff before it's been played to death by streamers already
