Hello, people! Has anyone heard of Hearthstone? It's fun. It's an online card game- A bit like Magic the Gathering, if you've ever played that. But online. It's made by Blizzard, and based around WoW, but that's all basically humor and lore, the mechanics have nothing to do with it. It's really cool.

everyone knows, the ads are EVERYWERE
but I haven't played it

one question, do I have too pay any money for it?
I am the harbinger of the spicy rooster apocalypse,
I am the hydrogen bomb in a necktie,
I hold the flames of a thousand collapsed stars,
I am Bobracha!

Paying is entirely optional; there is nothing in the game you cannot get without paying. It is much easier if you do pay, but I've payed only 10$, and I e completely slaughtered people who have clearly payed more than that. A well constructed and played deck is what counts, it's not pay to win.

And I wouldn't say 'everyone knows.' I doubt it was intended as such, but when used in context like that (Especially on the Internet, with lack of vocal cues) it comes across as quite rude. Like, 'Hey dude, check out this cool thing I'm excited about!' 'Oh, everyone already knows about that, the ads are everywhere.
Oh, and might I add that advertisements are personalized? If you're a gamer of any sort, based on the types of searches you've made, you'll be more likely to get Hearthstone ads, whereas if you, say, search for a lot of movie stuff, you'd get them less often.

Anyway, yeah. I got from rank 18 to 15 today! Oh, and lower numbers are better. You start at 25 and work your way down towards one, with periodic resets.

I get the point but I see those ads more than I see all the other ads COMBINED
and I meant do you have to pay for the game itself

I believe I answered that rather clearly.

In a word; no.

Tumbler, what class do you play? I love Priest, because I can mess with people in weird ways. I'm at rank 14 at the moment, with only one legendary in my deck and only 10$ sunk into the game, right? Everyone around me has Ragnaros and Ysera. I don't. I've got King Mukla. Yeah. But anyway, I was against this guy, and he played Ragnaros. I, of course, stole it with Mind Control. He then used a Faceless Manipulator to copy mine, and I stole it again, at which point he conceded. It was AMAZING.
