Why is there so much hostility/dislike towards Renewal?

[Motenai_Ronin]

The very reason you stated seems like a perfect reason to not like renewal, also getting cards has a sense of pride that comes with it, more so than battling to get an equip, makes ya feel more satisfied having made it, and it doing more damage cause you planned it out, not "I snagged this god-weapon! Now I pwn youze!"
