I'm glad I was able to complete one final quest in gold before being relegated to what I expect will be the bot wasteland (even though I'm human).
I'm going to give the collection tiered system a chance, but I'm really not looking forward to this season... I'm hopeful the challenge will actually increase as the devs predict, but the benefit of that likely won't be enough to offset rewards completely stagnating since the new leaderboards come later.
I really think a smarter and easier first step would have been to make the daily quest rewards constant across all tiers.
We'll see what happens...
