Although the new focus chests only allowed specific splinters to compete I found it easier than the previous format. However yesterday my randomly selected splinter to complete the focus turned into a challenge. How so? I got the Earth splinter and based on recent experience prior I immediately went with a splinter reset. Boy would I regret it as it turned out I had the Life splinter.
My Summoner Handy Cap
I had no choice but to continue playing however my Life summoner woes just came to surface. I had rented out my level 6 Tyrus Paladium and had only a level 3 to fall back on when playing Gold I. This meant I was at bare bone stats going into the battles.
I had a decent collection of life cards but for summoners I was handicapped with only Tyrus. I had to make due with what I had. Biggest challenge was the summoner's limitation as a level 3 card. This meant I was not able to use my monsters at their fullest capacity.
A majority of my rares and commons were limited due to my Tyrus. Yet I got had some help with use of another set of cards to supplement my deficiencies.
Neutral Cards
Through a streak of losses I changed up a bit in my setups. Ignoring the thought of using only life cards I mixed it up with an arsenal of neutral cards. The infamous Lord Arianthus even at level 2 was good enough to carry me though in some low mana matches. Then on higher mana matches the Goblin Mech turned into a staple.
Conclusions
Often in Gold I had to face opponents that had pretty much maxed out in leveling cards. The limit of level 6 rare summoner in conjunction of level 5 and higher on rares and commons were difficult to overcome when I was using a level 3 rare summoner.
On the other hand I sneaked away enough wins to get my averaging daily yield in focus. Although not ideal way of playing I still got a decent play to earn results.
For those wondering why I do not go with relinquishing my rental and get back my level 6 Tyrus mainly came down to me wanting to challenge myself. I wanted to see if I could make due with limited resources. I am happy with the results.
Until next time thanks for reading!!!

Nine Focus chests. This is amazing. I stopped after 5 Foucs chests. My maxed chests are 8.

I took a lot of losses to reach 9 chest though. Also stopped after 5 straight losses.
I think it's quite tough in Gold I and I am currently right there with you. However, I seem to be lucky and I have only gotten water, earth, fire, and dragon focus so far. So it hasn't been that bad. I play with either lvl 1 legendary summoners or lvl 4 rare summoners. My cards also aren't maxed out so I don't have that much of a summoner level issue.

The big surprise I see is that at gold the focus points stack very quickly leading to some decent rewards. The struggles/challenges with playing cards at lower levels is well worth it still. I’ve been steadily upgrading my summoners and took advantage of the untamed rares free fall in price.
