Uses for "tickets", gold, crystal?

[aardvarkpepper]

Before spending all the loot I got as a new player, just want to make sure I'm not spending it on stuff I'll wish I hadn't later.

So I have a bunch of gold, no crystal, I take it you can get new leaders with gold or crystal, so probably I'll save up for that. (Or I could get packs, daily deal, that sort of thing, but pass for now)

But I also have a bunch of these here "ticket" things. Some tickets seem to be good for "Take Two", some for packs of the original, some for packs of what I think is an expansion. It seems each is "spend 1 ticket get 1 pack" or "spend 1 ticket play Take Two once". Is there any OTHER use for those tickets at this time, or OTHER way to spend those tickets? Like save 20 tickets and get 25 packs, that sort of thing? Or save a bunch of tickets and get a new commander or something?

Thanks in advance for responses!

Card pack tickets are for certain card packs, so just use them, no point keeping them, new expansions will most likely get new specific tickets too.

Arena tickets are for the Arena, 0 wins out of 5 gets you 1 card pack ticket and 4 wins out of 5 gets around 130 gold and a pack ticket, sadly never won 5, so you're garenteed a new card pack in Arena.

I used 2800 gold/rupies/whatever on the leaders packs, then saved 1000 rupies and bought 5 of each pack. Then heard the new expansion will come end of the year so I'm just saving Gold now.

Log in rewards include card packs and a arena ticket, but I wouldn't recommend blowing all your take-two tickets unless you're really good and know you'll make the gold back.

my advice: left 1,500 gold (for new pack, cosmetic item such as skin and sleeve, etc.) and spend the rest on basic pack, as for arena ticket: find a friend and play it in private to know how take to work (in the real take two, the hero you can choose is random from 3 hero tho) before spend it. at worst you would get a pack for 5 lose as a reward (but you should aim for at least 3 win)

Yea as already said just open all your packs. If you hit skip it will open all (up to 10 at a time) to make things quicker and make it in a view that's little easier to see everything.

As for arena tickets, 2nd what braboobssiere said - make a private match with a friend and practice take two with them. If nothing else, have them come into lobby, make a deck, then exit out and remake a deck just so you get experience making take two decks. If you don't have an eye for understanding if a deck is good or not by looking at it, then use it in practice, but usually it's easy enough to tell if a take two deck is going to be decent or not as soon as it's done (if you have some experience with the game). Also, this helps for regular matches too as it lets you see more variety of cards so you can better understand what cards what classes have and what you could be going up against.
