       For the paying customer (maximizing your money) and the non-payi
       ng player (tips)

       This is a fun game to play and you really don't need to spend
       any money in it. You get lots of resources early on by
       completing the storyline.
       It is very easy to get a good deck:
       1) The Storyline giant cards are a great start.
       2) The AP / Zone Events gave me my strongest 5* cards.
       3) The daily area (egg hunting) leveled up my cards
       4) The daily area (egg hunting) gives a Special Token every time
       you complete the zone. Every 10 Special Tokens will give (at
       worst) nine 3-star and one 4-star card.
       5) The daily area has race-specific zones that you can complete
       to gain 4-5 decent cards for your deck plus tons of cards to
       level their skills.
       You should never have to spend money on cards.
       Especially experience eggs. This is by far the worst way to
       spend your money. 50c for one egg?! For 100c (or so) you can buy
       a restore potion and run through the daily area (egg hunting)
       for a dozen experience eggs AND a special token!
       Don't use the Premium Card Machine either. It's completely
       random and never on sale... if you MUST buy cards, there are
       better options.
       If you absolutely MUST have the newest released card (you know,
       the one with 3x the rate), be prepared to spend $100 or more to
       get it (and get lots of junk along the way). That 5* card you
       want has a rate of 0.1% which is bumped up to 0.3% for the
       special deal. Ok, I just pulled those numbers from nowhere, but
       you get the point. That $100 would be MUCH better spent
       elsewhere (if at all).
       If you have a hole in your deck (Front Guard or Rear Guard),
       those machines are a decent option, however they are not race
       specific... and the race specific card machines are not
       Front/Rear Guard specific. But, if you must buy cards, these are
       your best bet.
       Where should you spend your money? You don't have to spend
       money.
       I showed you how to build your deck... but at some point, you
       will run out of resources and get bored or impatient. It does
       not hurt to buy restore potions when they are on sale. AP
       potions are rarely available and BP potions are almost as
       expensive as restore potions, so restore potions are your best
       value.
       I showed you how to build your deck... and now you have too many
       cards? You can buy more slots for your card bank. It's expensive
       so don't go crazy, but a few extra slots help when you are
       overloaded with experience eggs while you blast through the
       daily area (egg hunting).
       I showed you how to build your deck... but there is a problem
       acquiring your strongest cards. The AP / Zone events require you
       to complete a series of treasure and people can keep stealing
       your loot! Having a series trap or two can make sure you keep
       what's yours until your AP/BP restores. OR have a fully-leveled
       defense deck to protect your stuff (place your best card as the
       ACE to deter people from attacking you).
       In conclusion... you do not need to pay money to enjoy the game.
       You do not need to spend money to win events/tournaments. But if
       you do have the means, now you know where you can focus your
       spending to maximize your money.
