The #1 reason I stopped playing the game is because I would do fairly well at the game, get matched with stronger opponents, and subsequently lose because I dont even have the full set of Mage cards while my opponent is pulling legendaries. That kind of a game just isnt fun for me and it happens over and over.


FWIW I ranked Legendary (in March 2014) without using any Legendary cards. It's definitely not required for success.

Offtopic but that reminded me of those decade-old Slashdot posts with the sudden cutoff mid-sentence followed by 'Connection dropped' modem messages.


It's definitely a bit of an issue, but less of one than people tend to believe. There are many decks that people bring to Legend rank that cost very little in terms of dust.
