While this of course COULD be a huge money sink it doesn't have to.

Mobage has a choice at this juncture. Do the above and slowly kill the game.

They could also increase droprates of cards to compensate for the higher requirement. They could also make it possible to complete Evo cards by simply playing a lot and "grinding". Money should just get you it faster but be supplantable by time invested. They can also make each individual card cost less so players buy more cards but spend the same amount (or less per player but more players spend).

Ball is in Mobages court. They can either do this properly and make this one of the better CCG out there, or drop it entirely and doom it.
