Well written up, I've been doing the same, especially stacking DEC, although I've only actually managed to maintain that given the cards I've bought rather than increase it.
I think one has to be careful with the summoners - bit too rich for me personally.
maybe some of the maxed legendaries too, good chance to pick up a few gold dragons.
However, I'm just holding out a little bit longer to buy my level 3 Hydra! They're still not selling even after several price reductions.

The summoners are kind of tricky. You really need them but having them at level 8 is kind of overkill at the moment. The gap in price between getting a level 5 having to buy single cards leveling them up and getting a level 8 which has 5x more cards into is not all that big though.
I have mostly focussed on buying cards that are most useful to lease out to affiliates, which has been a really good use case so far allowing to earn some good returns on those while I'll be able to sell them one day.
I just have to have L8 summoners, I'm too used to having 'all' the buffs at max level, there's a few cards where it's crucial.
I tend to to focus on good value legendaries/ epics. I'm very tempted by a second Gold Dragon!
