Level Up
The best way to get the most packs in the early game is to level up your character account.
Every level you gain Pack Hourglasses, each of which is worth 1 hour of wait time between opening new packs.
So for 12 Pack Hourglasses, you can get a free pull!
Do Your Dailys
Every day, a select of missions open up.
By completing 3 of the 5, you earn 4 Pack Hourglasses.
This means that you earn 1 additional booster pack every 3 days just by playing the game.
Battle the Computer
When you hit level 3, you unlock the ability to battle both the computer as well as other players.
By going through the first 6 battling tutorials, you earn 14 Pack Hourglasses.
For the Solo battles against the AI, every first victory will earn you more Pack Hourglasses, starting from 2 for the easiest difficulty.
Construct your deck to target weaknesses, or play the rental decks that you unlock through pulling specific cards, to breeze through the 2 easiest difficulties for 23 Pack Hourglasses.
Buy them with Shop Tickets
If you head to the Shop, you will see that they have Pack Hourglasses up for sale.
For every 2 Shop Tickets, you get 1 Pack Hourglass, and there are 10 of those available.
But that’s not all!
There are also bundles of 6 Pack Hourglasses that can be gotten for 12 Shop Tickets each, and those are on their own counter of 10.
By obtaining 140 Shop Tickets, you can trade them in for 70 Pack Hourglasses.
In addition, those same stacks are available for 50% more Shop Tickets that refresh every month.
Get the Premium Pass
Finally, you can obtain more Pack Hourglasses by partaking in the Premium Pass.
The Premium Pass unlocks access to Premium Missions, which contains collection milestones like obtaining cards and opening booster packs that award the currency you need to open more packs.
The Premium Pass is also available for FREE the first 2 weeks, so definitely take advantage and set a reminder for yourself to cancel the $9.99 subscription at least 24 hours before the end of the 2 weeks trial period!
