Hi Guys. This is my normal daily grind, but this time I tried FIRE FOCUS, which I never tried in the DIAMOND league because it is too expensive, predictable, and if you don't have YODIN you will have a hard time, which I had. I will be sharing the cards that I rented, rental costs, and the battle that I can't get out of my mind because of the mistakes that I made here.

RENTED CARDS

As usual, I rented all of the max level cards that were less than 10 DEC/Day and the cards that I believe I will use a lot and help me win the majority of the games despite the higher price. I was unable to rent a YODIN because it was priced at 1600 DEC/Day, which is more than my total rental cost for the fire splinter, which is 1409.016 DEC/Day. With YODIN, I will be able to win more games, but I am still attempting to become acquainted with the diamond league and try different lineups and monsters.

BATTLE OF THE DAY

I chose this game because I made a lot of mistakes in this match.
**First and foremost, with the EXPLOSIVE WEAPONRY ruleset, I always go for fast monsters to eliminate the enemy before they can take their turn, as I did in this match. However, I don't have a good tank to take the enemy's blast damage, and all of my monsters are vulnerable and have low HP.
Second, I didn't realize there was an ENRAGE ruleset, so I chose EXPLODING RAT, who has a REDEMPTION ability, and in round 1 he died from the THORNS and exploded, boosting all of the enemy monsters' speed so much that I lost the game in round 1.
Third, in the EXPLOSIVE WEAPONRY ruleset, I chose a monster with the ability BLAST, which is useless.

AFTERTHOUGHTS

This FIRE focus was a disaster for me; I lost 60-70 percent of my game and was not even motivated to play until I reached 50 percent ECR, which is why I changed my goal and just tried to open at least 12 Diamond chests; as usual, my luck with these chests is terrible. I'm still learning the meta and strategies in the DIAMOND league, and I'm halfway there, but I'll never play FIRE focus again.
