Beginner Growth Roadmap
Build a main squad you actually use before chasing power numbers
First week
Link your account and join an Alliance
Main squad of 2 front row + 3 back row
Keep construction and research queues running nonstop
Early-mid game
Check prerequisite buildings for Castle upgrades
Invest in your main heroes in the order EXP → stars → skills
Secure soldier tiers
Mid game
Check whether the faction bonus is unlocked
Main squad gear and Alliance Duel research
Set personal reward goals for events
Late game
Calculate the T9 → T10 requirements
Expand your second squad
Build a separate war lineup
Resource Management
Use Universal UR Shards after you pick the heroes you will use long-term in your main squad
Open Resource Chests once the next construction/research cost is set
Use speedups on Alliance Duel scoring days, but do not pause construction/research for days
