Gems grind rate is TOO slow

I disagree. Even with the current quest times, you can manage to get one pack per day. Or basically even a guranteed daily pack during an event because of the special quests.

Well, you get 70-80 gems every day and with the special quests giving 20 you can get 90-100, it seems. 

In any case, I don't think it's a terrible model and I think it's probably more than 30 minutes.  Each quest can take around 1-3 games depending on how you do and what kind of quest it is so let's say that on average you do 2 games per quest, and you usually do 7-8 quests each day (24/3 = 8) so that would be around 14-16 games and around  5 minutes per game that gets you about 70-80 minutes. Add to that time to design decks and fool around. And course this is just the minimum time if you want to fulfill all your quests and nothing more.

This is actually pretty good time for a person who has a busy life and/or other games to play on their mobile phones. I think it's actually a pretty good strategy to make a mobile game that appeals to the mobile gamer.

Even then, in practice most people will certainly be playing more as they try to test out decks and grind the ladder. At a rate of 1-2 hours a day each player is getting new cards every day for the first few weeks thanks to the hero coins and the gems from the ladder. It is only after a few weeks when the rate of new cards starts to slow down, once you have all the basic cards and your reach gold rank. Of course, by then you have plenty of cards and should have lots of decks and strategies to try out.

I can certainly agree that it would be nice to have a few other gameplay options. This would likely increase ways to get more gems daily which would appeal to those who are obsessed with rewards, but to me the important thing is having the extra gameplay. And as I've said before, it's a brand new game so just give it time.

No, the rate of you getting 20 gems quests is much lower than 1 per day, it's more one per week even if you use the renew quest all the time and it could be a 30 gems cornucopia shill. 100 gems quest is now set to monthly basis. You just got one on 21st, right?
Also to get all 8 quests daily you have to be dedicated to the game to another extent, doing the quest in 3 hours frame it appears. Once you have got all 3, your timer stops and you are wasting time. Even 10 minutes wasted means you won't do 8 quests this day, only 7.
And to buy a pack you need 2 20 gems quests DAILY so I have asked him how us it possible, unless he is a cheater like grinningwhoever who gets 800 gems per week for several months.

Maybe the rate of YOU getting 20 gem quests is "much lower than 1 per day".

I get at least one 20 gem quest a day. I've had the 30 gem Cornucopia quest 3 times in the last week. And I get the 100 gem quest about 3 times a month.

You get less than everyone else because no one likes you. The entire world is in collusion to ruin every day of your life because you are so extremely annoying.

See you next whine.

Anyone can get monthly 100 gems quest 3 times a month if they set the false date in their phone like you do, it's not something unbelievable. However, those who don't cheat get this quest once per month. Last time everyone has got 100 gems quest is 21st of November.

Anyway, there is a new abuse plaguing the ladder now and devs don't bother to fix it.

Have fun being owned by these 4 turn zombots.

I have not seen this "abuse" before.

I checked the Technical Issues board, and there is no mention of a turn #4 Zombot bug there either.

How would the developers know to fix this "abuse plaguing the ladder" if no one has "bothered" to report it?

You already submitted a ticket, right?

Not my game so I won't be able to submit it. The guy who experienced it has done it apparently.
