GUIDE FOR STARTERS AND ASPIRING CHAMPION RANKS:
If you're just starting up and need an idea how you can maximize your start up try reading the wall of texts below.
When starting up and your goal is play to earn you'll need to buy the spell book($10 or PHP500 + taxes depending on MOP)
After buying a spellbook,you can now earn DEC every win in ranked matches. The higher the win streak and rank the bigger the amount.
For starters:
I would recommend you to invest atleast $3- $5 worth of dec or credits just to rent out 1 team so from the start you can winstreak up to bronze 1 and you accumulate dec. cause in bronze 1,the rules will start and there you will have some lose in matches if your team is not available.
I highly recommend this strat since simula from the start you can maximize your capture rate.
(Avoid renting cards that are on cooldown cuz you cant use it rightaway. You'll see it when you're choosing to which cards to rent, its in the right side,theres a little circle like a timer if highlighted it means on cd if not then it's ok)
(if you dont have extra $3-5 you can grind them dec and if you've accumulated enough amount you needed to rent cards then you can proceed)
- RENT DEPENDING ON YOUR CAPACITY
For example you only have 300 dec, rent for a day and grind it till you earn double the amount that you use for renting the cards. (make sure to maximize your capture rate and don't let it step down below 50%)
if you have huge amount of dec then rent for the whole season but make sure to grind your account.
Personally I would start by choosing a team whether it's fire, water, light, death, dragon or earth I'll start renting normal to epic cards for 15 days cuse they are the one with low renting cost and manageable for 15days. Then I'll rent legendaries for 7days and accumulate 3 times the amount I used within those 7 days before the legendaries expire. Then continue to rent again for 7 days and repeat. By the end of season I can say the you have either quadrupled your starting dec or maybe more depending on how you manage your capture rate.
(Normally if your just starting I would advice to compose a team or 2 till you get a good grasp of the game mechanics then continue on your own discretion)
for those aspiring champion ranks, I learned this the hard way. Based on my experience if you want to reach champion rank you have to have atleast 7k dec(this price is base on what i used last season but now i think its not enough since now the cost for renting a card is high)
Minimum of 7k dec I managed to reach champion rank with 3 teams rented all max level monsters and summoners. It's quite the number for me since I never invested anything here just the spellbook so the 7k dec i spent is im a little hesi.. since all of that was from grinding for several days. But I can say it's def worth because of the number of loot box you can get once the season end.
Personal Advice:
If you got into the game just because you want to earn and don't want to invest more than the spellbook you can do so with just renting but don't expect to earn much because you limited capabilites in renting since you'll depend on the dec that you're earning. Most likely you'll have a slow progress in ranks since that will also be where your going to get your renting budget next time aside from profit.
But if you're here to enjoy the game and willing to invest eg: SPS, SPT, SKINS, LAND ETC.. then you can expect a larger income in the near future especially just by staking your SPS and managing your lands.
Start by collecting the cards that you have complete trust by buying it so you won't have to rent it when grinding in the lower ranks. Coz it will take time to grind on the diamond to champion ranks coz you'll probably need max level cards there unless you can afford to rent them for a week then you may do so and earn like champion.
That's all for now if you have other questions just put them in the comment section and I'll try my best to answer them. hopefully this can help you,it a little bit hard for me when i have started since I have to gain everything from experience.
PS: I consider myself as a new player too. I'm about 11-13 days into the game palang so if you think there's something wrong with what ive wrote then feel free to comment it down.
GOODLUCK TO ALL OF US AND HAPPY GRINDING!
