Road to Champion Update #3 (Pleasant Surprise!)

Two days before the End of Season and I have arrived!
After renting and getting the teams I want, I started climbing.

Eventually I reached the highest point of Diamond. The Advance button showed and I got nervous. I steeled myself and clicked ADVANCE.

I have never climbed this high since I started playing the game. But I started to ask myself. At what cost?

That was easy. For all my cards, I spent close to 15k DEC. Did I think I would be able to get this back? I assumed I would be able to get ROI from the ranked battles alone. Fingers crossed.

My first match, was also my first win! Let's not think that it's because they surrendered. It did help me calm my nerves.

As I continued to play, I realized that the people I'm playing with seem to have all the cards. Each match is so fun and interesting, but it's so hard to win! I'm just glad I have
The Pleasant Surprise
In one of my daily quest chests, I got some DEC and a few cards. It wasn't a big deal for me until I saw my DEC. I had 24k! Holy crap! So I went to check out the explorer tab in peakmonsters...

IT WAS THERE. All that I spent for renting easily taken care of thanks to that one chest!

This was of course pure luck, but I'm not complaining! With how many daily chests you can get in the upper league, it's definitely worth it to farm here!
One more day to End of Season
There's one day left. Time for you to rent enough power and claim those chests soon. May the Odds be Ever in Our Favor! Let's hope there won't be problems renting!
Bonus Fight Watch Here!

I expected them to go on a sneak match, so my Cocatrice was placed at the back (with the sacrificial chicken). The match was won because of the OP-ness of Byzantine Kitty with the Pelacor Deceiver and Uraeus.

Congrats! 🙂 I guess this is not your account with the challenge you made recently. Did you gain that power over time, rent it or you invested in the game by buying cards?
This is mostly rented cards! I only have around 20k power of owned cards.
The 500 DEC Challenge one has a 2.8k rating now. It costs too much to rent the cards I need so I focused all my resources on my main account.
I see. Great! Thanks! I just wanted to see if I could have done much better for my account.
