Hi Guys,

! didn't expect to be writing this update quite as soon as this but iv had a very good week with gaining CP.
So in my last post i was happy to finally make the 5K CP need for Bronze 1 before the end of season, with the goal of possibly reaching silver just before the end of this season.
Well in just over 5 days iv reached that goal with an investment of just $20!

This is end of last season.

This is where i am now.

As iv stated in previous posts i dont have alot of money to invest at the moment so i really have to make my money stretch as far as possible and get the very most bang for the buck.

With this in mind i dropped $20 (£15) into my account and headed straight over to PeakMonsters https://peakmonsters.com/.

For sure its a buyers market at the moment with prices generally falling for many cards to their lowest ever price, and rares especially great value for money.

As you can see from this screenshot, rares are selling for upto 285 CP per $1 which is amazing value for money.
Throw in a little card flipping, like selling cheap cards like Radiated Scorchers that i was buying at .04 selling at .07 or Kobold Bruisers for .17 selling at .32, i pumped it all back into getting the cheap CP cards and soon the CP started rising.

Obviously this is my own experience and in no way advice of any type as prices can wildly fluctuate by the minute,but it was fun making moves to increase my balance and reach my goal a week earlier than i expected.

So going forward from here, theres a huge leap from Silver 3 (15K) to Silver 2 (40K) in terms of CP, and to be honest my cards are not strong enough to advance any further,so i think that for the time being i will be content staying in S3 and learning the different styles of battle and focus on strengthening my deck before trying to advance higher.

Thanks for reading and feel free to offer any advice or comments.
Any upvotes greatly appreciated.

Seems like a great start!

It's just so annoying you need high lvl summoners to use high lvl cards. And summoners have horrible CP/dollar ratio.
