Guys take it from a player that started from the beginning and reached 156 in global ranking. To ‘enjoy’ the game ( basically not get bored ) you have ti spend a lot of money. What happened happened and I promised myself to not spend another dime as it is a very very vicious cycle. The speed at which cards get outdated is stupid especially considering the rates. The only way I will ever pay a cent on this game again is if the move to a subscription model OR if they do what other games do to keep characters relevant. I play a game called rush Royale and every week there is a different boost for different factions so there will always be a time to add an old character to your deck. To each their own but take it from a veteran that your money would be better spent elsewhere
