No 5000 Gem pack?
Was sitting at 4940 last night and knew I was going to get to 5000 this morning and wake up to find that the multipack is $40 and there is no gem option? Really?!!!

Unfortunately, yes. Really.
That's what the countdown next to the multipacks was telling you for the past week.
It's not that big of a deal though. You just get 55 packs now instead of 60 for 5,000 gems.
^true, but no guaranteed legendaries...
I am really upset about this as well.
I've been saving for months to buy the 5000 gem packs and now they are gone.
And I didn't see ANY warning. Someone refers to a countdown, I didn't see it.
This is VERY upsetting and I hope they bring back the option to buy them for gems soon.

That's marketing
The legendary drop rate was much higher than the guaranteed minimum.
Plus, now you can just buy the legendary cards you want for 1,150 gems each.

You must have some serious luck. there's threads on this board about not getting them with buying multiple 1000 gem packs

Not only do you not get any guaranteed legendaries but you're losing out on 30 cards for sparks. I'd say that's a big deal. For me I have all legendaries but one and was really just going for sparks, dupes and heros but I think it's unfortunate that they chose to go this way. Especially for newer players. Much more difficult to get legendaries now. The countdown ended yesterday as well, no correlation with the update by the way.
While it's a tough break... for a card game you can get an awfully long way for free, even still. EA has never been a company i would call fair to customers, but the f2p model in this is far better than its competitors at this point.
This Game is soo Pay-to-Win, its crazy. I cant understand that people still support this. After any update it got more P2W and now they changed something that was in the game since release?! Think about it: Its a Kids-mobilgame and it costs more than GW1 and GW2 combined (when you want all cards). Now you cant even get a guaranteed legendary, actually this update was just sad.

Man, it's not like that. It really is not possible to get legendary in the packages. However, you can still buy them through the deck buildings. Is it the best way? With certainty not, but still can acquire legendary.
I really agree that the game has become a bit more P2W, but not totally, it's still a bit fair

You get 9% less cards when spending 5,000 gems all at once. It's not really a big deal.
There is no difference in the number of legendary cards you will get from packs. The legendary card guarantee was just marketing.
@Schattenpflanze is a card game. So yeah, paying money gets you more cards to create and player higher level decks. Just like EVERY TCG/CCG EVER!! As a matter of fact, this game gives you cards more frequently than magic, hearthstone, yugioh, etc.
It's a business. They're designed to make them money, contrary to what you must think, they didn't make this game for people to just enjoy outta the goodness of their hearts. But even with that, they're still among the most fair in their free elements.
And, i too, wonder why you classify it as a kids game... is it family friendly? Sure, but just for kids? No more than video gaming in general. Or was that you just trying to justify being a person who wants to enjoy a product but not support it?
