Your favourite Doctor is here to give you the perfect medicine to peak 100% Win rate! I have a big announcement to make I REACHED DIAMOND 3! Yes guys I did, after 4 Season I made it. I'm back here to share with you my considerations about this goal and some ROI analysis.
💸PS. Let's get rid out of the big elephant of the room. No I am not a whale and yes I rented every card.💸

😝 Let's jump into the consideration😝

I am sure you have tons of question about playing in Diamond so I will start by explaining you what I wanted to discover.
  • Is it worth? Did you get enough DEC back to pay your rent? No, in terms of instant ROI I invested more than I got back.
  • Is it fun? I would say there is no much difference between Gold and Low diamond. It's just a tryhard
  • Did you have to use max level summoner and monster to reach Diamond? No I played with summoner lvl 4 (even below Gold league max)
  • Is it plenty of whales destroying you? No it is not. Especially last days of Gold 1 I would say it is pretty easy
  • What is the summoner you hated the most? No one, honestly you can counter everyone. Probably I would say get ready to meet a lot, A LOT, A LOT OF YODINS

This analysis will continue on the next paragraph.

👽 Now let's have a look at the REWARDS ROI! 👽

How much did I spend? On a daily basis I spent 3-3.50$ x 15 = more or less 45$.

Let's evaluate the rewards now....

  • I made a total of 198 Win constantly holding my DEC rate over 80% --> 3442 DEC just by winning games. That's a total of 15.4$ with DEC at 0.0038
  • Gold Foil Cards: 2x Common
  • Standard Foil Cards: 39x Common; 14x Rare; 2x Epic; 1x Legendary
  • Potions: 20x Legendary; 16x Alchemy
  • Dec from Chests: 519

Not bad, not special. After achieving Diamond I think that for my expenses it would be better to stay in Gold 2 Max. I would say that the instant ROI is more balanced if you rent everything.

This does not mean that you should not try. My biggest gain was knowledge, especially seeing high lvl cards and combos.. I can tell you guys there are so many undervaluated cards around.

🕺 2nd Part of Considerations 🕺

Let's go back to our considerations.
  • Would you do it again? Mmmm maybe in a few months, I got what I wanted to. Reached my goal and discovered so many undervaluated cards...
  • Can you share your deck? Of course I can. I did it in a previous article, link here. 👉My secret deck! - 100% Gold 1!👈
  • What is your goal now? Ending every season in Gold 2-1, finding more rewards cards until I can avoid rents.
  • How do you think to improve more? Well... you know guys I strongly believe in knowledge so at the moment I am playing through a Scholarship to see what I can do with strong cards.

🤑 Next surprises 🤑

Thank you for reading my article, I hope this will help you to understand if it is worth to reach Diamond 3 by renting. As I previously mentioned I am currently playing with a Maxed Modern Format Set to see where I can arrive. Stay tuned because I will share more about this experience.. Maybe I will reach Champion 2 or 1 this time ;).
See you soon,
Dr. Estiqaatsi
