I've got this really weird hangup when it comes to wanting to dive in to this. I wouldn't be able to relax if I felt like I was on a clock. The stamina/seasons are totally fine and not at all an issue because weeks loop around as do seasons. But years don't and if there are major story beats or events that take place on, for example, Year 3 in which I should really have been preparing for instead of not really progressing my farm/village, then I would feel like I'd have to min/max my tasks each and every day with little incentive to just relax.
What say ye, those who could speak more about this?
@bork: You stated quite correctly that the mode you chose to play the game for is ranked.
Well... let me save you from some of the disappointment from the Blizzard support rep.
You can still play that very same mode that you have already learned to love. It'll just be called Ranked Wild. You can use all of the same cards you've spent so much of your money on.
What are you going to do now? Turn around and change your definition of 'ranked' to mean 'the main aspect of competitive play as defined by Blizzard'? That's only very disingenuous.
Good luck with getting all them free rewards though ;)
