I don't know the exact dates, but I started HS around March of 2022 and played till about February of 2023 when life circumstances took me away. Approximately 11 months.

Most of that time I was a very casual player, rarely finishing the reward track, missing daily weekly quest completions, and never getting significant season rewards... the most free packs I ever got of any set (because I never paid for any) was in earning 34 free packs of Murder of Castle Nathria (my peak playing period for that first go).

I did check in after rotation, but wasn't playing at that point and didn't dust anything that I had.

I came back to HS October 15 of last year, had to relearn a few things, get into the swing, then ramped up to consistent and "serious" play, hitting all the quests, making Legend in standard, transitioning to mainly playing wild, and continuing to use gold to buy past mini-sets, one adventure, and exploiting the legendary pity timer on past expansion packs. Most recently, starting with Cataclysm, I bought a tavern pass...just seemed worth it, but I haven't spend any money other than that.

With my broken approximate 18 months of play, most of it being casually(up until last October), I seem to be averaging 12.8(repeating) legendaries a month to growing my collection, based on my total of 232 legendaries currently. And 18.83(repeating) or 19 epics per month.

Has anyone else has looked at the rate of legendary accumulation based on months of play as a FtP player? What kind of numbers are you getting?

Once I saw that somone mentioned this is actually the first time a goblin has been on hero art, I was like, man, now I would love to have that even more...I mean I liked it initially, just for being a goblin (which I have a history with in MTG).

I feel like the Faire gets a lot of hate, for basically being a free, no cost way for the vast majority of players to get additional cosmetics.

I've never paid for any spins, but I am routinely happy with simply getting free cosmetics or packs from it.
