Is this going to be a.. buy new packs to get new cards thing? (microtransactioned)
Yes and sorta.

From what I remember watching during closed beta, you had to pay $1.50 to enter the ranked queue, and if you won you would get enough credits to keep playing in ranked queue a few times. Otherwise you had to keep forking over money to play ranked.

If you win a ranked queue (9 matches unless you lose 3 times), you get gold + cards depending on how many wins you got. So 9 wins would net you enough gold to pay back the $1.50 you spent + more, then you'd get some card packs, and some dust (used for creating single cards).

I think if you spent something like $250 was the average to get every card in the game, otherwise you'd have to play enough to get enough packs and fill up your book.

Stop giving the zerg complete control of the server and allow other guilds to be built. Server policy is ruining Red99 end game, only Sirken and Nilbog can fix it!
