After a while, I went back to playing. In the beginning, defeat followed defeat. But during the third season, I remembered how to play the game again. I'm not saying that I'm back to success, but I'm much better than I was a month ago.
I set my goals low. Stay in Bronze I. But I'm starting to think about Gold III. I'm also getting more playable cards. I only buy Epic cards for Glints anymore. But I can manage to buy 3 or 4 a season.
That's not the kind of reward you want. But thanks to these Merrits I've got over 2000. I can buy and open another pack Gladius.
And you want to win such cards.
One last note. Some parts of my day are more successful than others. It almost seems like players with better and worse card portfolios play at different times. Given that the players are in different parts of the planet and in different time zones, this shouldn't be possible. But otherwise I can't explain losing ten battles in a row at a certain time of day and winning ten battles at another time.

Of course I have a few favourite sets. This is one of them. Unless my opponent is several levels stronger, I usually win with her.
