This was a decent season with 246K Glint left at the end of the season. With all the Common and Rare rewards cards leveled up, I may focus on Legendary and Epic ones now.

So, four level 5 and 3 level 4, and another 10 Epic cards bought. Got lucky, with one Gold Epic out of 10 cards too.

Second batch, another 10 Epic cards. This time no Gold cards.

Last 5 Epic cards from the batch 1, and time to move towards Legendary. In the end, one card leveld up, so right now I got five level 5 and 2 level 4.

One Legendary cards, and Merits for the rest of the Glint. Death Ranger, still week at level 1.

I got enough Merits to buy 9 packs of Gladiator cards. Am I feeling lucky? Four Gold cards out of 45, not bad at all. Two Epic cards too.

As the Merits become too expensive, I bought my last 3 Gold Common cards and finished my shopping spree.

What did you buy this season?

Congratulations on maxing out most of the "commons" I think the common cards gets very useful at level 9 and 10, so getting them done is good. You'll probably spend more glints to Max out the Legendaries.

Actually not. Do not forget that you need 400 cards to max up a Common, but only 11 to get a max legendary. You need on average double the glint for a legendary compared with a common. Maybe triple.
