How to climb in this arena

• Keep your deck’s levels even: prioritize upgrading your win condition and the defensive cards you play most.
• Every deck should have at least three cards that hit air troops, one splash card and one tank killer.
• Before putting a newly unlocked card in your deck, compare it with the card that does the same job; a low-level new card can make the deck weaker.
