Unlock Order
Optimal early-game unlock order: (1) the strongest Mythic-tier ball you can afford, (2) the next-strongest Epic-tier ball, (3) fill in Common Runes only after the Mythic and Epic slots are stable. This maximizes your 3-ball selection quality across the first 50 matches.
Gear-Coin Trade-Off
Save Coins specifically for the shop — opening crates offers lower expected value than direct unlocks in the first 20 matches. Once you have 5+ strong balls, consider opening crates to fill out the collection for trading.
