Thanks! That's awesome that I could give you a new perspective! :) Reward cards have always been my main strategy, as I usually have more time than money.

@MonsterSpirit is growing really quickly now. This season I'll be able to finish in Gold II, maybe even Gold I! That's some serious reward cards for a no-money account. My summoners are coming along: Delwyn at level 6, Daria at 4, and several of my Untamed summoners at level 3. I think the Spirit will be hitting Diamond within the next month!
