be prepared to either spend few hundreds $$ a month for 'progress' or play slowly for free.

middle ground is so thin there is no point.

- there is always bigger fish - you wont have a chance of reaching top1 in tournament without outspending everyone else (and some guys drop few thousands in 3 days event ...)

1) Pay2Win vs F2P Mentality

• Accept that you won't be in the top arena ranks without spending many many $ or getting ultra mega lucky.
  
• If you want to be F2P, that's fine as long as you aren't competitive at all and are fine with making very slow progress. 
  

2) If you're happy with #1, lookup guides on youtube. Specific creators I've gotten a lot from are:

Raid: Shadow Legends (this is the official channel)

Vertigo

Chofly Mobile

I know this isn't super helpful but there's A LOT to take in with this game. Def worth watching/researching as much as you can.

I just played this game, so I don't have much experience in the game yet, looking forward to your further guidance

Welcome!

Who did you chose as your starter?

run while u can or while u still aint too deep in da sh!t already.

even if u r extremely lucky who can pull couple useful legos u still need to spend $$ to make them useful cause lego skill books dont exist for f2p, ascend/mastery takes years if u r f2p, grinding foods for a team of 6 stars literally takes 8+ months for f2p,  after all those "crack cocaine"ly freebie xp boost and energy feedings at the start of ur game, progress will feel like watching paint dry after then.
