considering the fact that the top spots are always taken by the same guilds, with maybe the ocassional jump from one of the other tops:
if boss cards were exclusive to top guilds, maybe the top 6 or so guilds will attempt to win the war. but for every other guild? anyone outside the higher guilds wouldn't bother. and since they don't have a chance at earning the boss, they won't bother buying gems, so in the end Playmage also loses.
think about this: my guild is top 50, top 20, or maybe even top 10. if we can't earn the boss, we won't bother with the war, and obviously we won't bother buying gems. now imagine how much of a loss it would be if only the top 10 guilds bought gems?
Playmage can take the bosses away from the rest and make them exclusively top3 guild rewards, but is also bad business for them
Benjamin is funny that you ask how are they going to make profits. if boss cards are accessible to everyone that can score 50k points, everyone will be buying gems to reach the score. i could be in a top 500 guild and i would still buy gems. my guildmates would buy gems. most mid-level players would buy gems.
(and how ironic that someone from a top guild is tired of whining, considering that during this cycle, top players constantly complained about the boss cards that weren't shepard)
now, back to my previous point:
as a matter of fact, the top guilds already have the boss cards (and are the only ones that have the evolved version), but even then, i expect they will still want to stay at the top on all of the recycle wars anyway, isn't that right?
