When I saw them, I assumed the new H-coins would be used to unlock new heroes. The following quote from the press release seemed to confirm it:   "We’ve also introduced a new card pack system that lets you earn coins to unlock character cards, giving you more options to choose from when building your team from hundreds of your favorite PvZ characters."

However, in the shop, the only things that can be purchased with H-coins are ordinary basic packs. This means that H-coins are virtually useless, since you unlock all basic cards very quickly anyway and basic packs never drop premium cards or heroes. Or am I missing something?
