Hearthstone is pretty reasonable imo. You get a fairly consistent amount of dust per pack and even like a ‘lucky’ pack isn’t that great. Just saves you from having to dust a few extra cards to get the one you want. I wish the prices were lower given how many cards they release a year now, but it’s not very much like gambling.

For me Hearthstone is a big offender of the practice - the way they gate the new cards behind an expansion pass which you have to pay for is very predatory, not to mention a portion of newest cards always form the metagame as they suffer from power-creep.
