Doing this (almost what they've announced they'll be doing) makes you stronger, but it doesn't take very many merit points and I'm going to cap out in a few days again without particularly trying. Opening up the Tier 1/2 merits would have kept me busy for a long time and arguably would have impacted game balance less than what they're actually doing.
