Holiday Bundles - Feeling a Bit Gypped Here

in General Discussion
As someone who spent $250 on units just a few days ago to spend on Greater Banquet Crystals, seeing these Holiday Bundles roll out today with extra rewards in them has me feeling like a bait and switch. Why wouldn't these offers have gone live with the rest of the Banquet Event?

Feels like a cheap shot.

    Ideally these offers should start banquet day 1. But it's business.

    they knew people like you would fall for it
    That doesn't seem much in the spirit of holiday cheer.

    Tbf, they been doing unit deals every year around Christmas Day for as long as I can remember so anyone in your position and been playing the game longer than a year only have themselves to blame for rushing into banquet rather than waiting

    Yes, I get that it's business. Just generally annoyed that these offers didn't go live with the event. Just makes me not want to spend in the future.
    Well the last few years there always ben holidays spending why would u also go all out one day 1 though there 14 day of the event not saying it was bad

    I did the same, bought 2 Odins yesterday as the summoners market had no inclination of there being bundles until this morning. Feel like ive been fobbed off abit but i guess its too late now.

    I've been playing the game for 8 years. This is my first time spending on holiday deals. And, to my knowledge, isn't banquet only a couple years old now?

    Huh. That’s not really a phrase anyone uses anymore. For variety of reasons.

    Or, you all could have just waited.

    They usually have the 10 GBC offer live at a different time from the unit deals. After the unit deals go away the 10 GBC deal will probably come back.

    Never seen the word gypped spelled out before tbh. Wild

    They’ve done this the last few years to be fair. 10 x GGC/GBC bundle first up. Unit deals with added extras a little while later.

    There's literally no reason to not release extra unit bundles along Banquet other than Kabam wanting to do, "Gotcha 😉"
