Rewards this season (or lack thereof -- 20k for final reward)
So the final stage requires 20k pass points. In their post announcing Season of Elements they made it seem like they were going to strip away all the useless rewards, and give us better stuff... while the rewards were better, we're also getting a comparable amount of stuff, just over a longer period of time. I've collected every possible pass point, meaning that from here on out this season will offer nothing else until I get to the 11th tier. This will require more than double what I've already earned all the way up to this point, just to earn a single egg.
"You should be playing the game just because you enjoy it and the rewards are a nice bonus" More power to you if you do. I want the emotes because I can use them in League, and the little legends are usable in aram (perhaps they'll have them as your avatar in LoR, etc). I find auto-battlers lacking meaningful decision making... so this may be where I'm off until next season. Given how many people are afking in this mode, I'd say I'm not alone.
