if you just started you should try to stick with ai3 or lower till you get money to upp cards
then upgrade and move to fg and pvp

The current difference [1-2quanta] works well for partially upped tournaments like War.

A difference of 1 quanta can be huge.  Give me a (set of) pharaoh(s) with their cost reduced by 1 :time, and I'll show you a gold-arena-farming deck which absolutely dominates all other gold-arena-farming decks.

A better topic for discussion might be:  which PARTICULAR cards are hardly worth upgrading?  I'll start by nominating Lycanthrope!

I disagree. This is a thread about whether the current degree of upgrade is ideal or if it could be improved.

The thread may be for that, but I'm pretty sure that the name of this subsection is "Buff This Card!" and not "Buff ALL Cards!" Instead of making a thread about all of them, adress the ones that namely would need a buff upgraded, following the guidelines of this subsection. This thread just seems out of place IMO.

Where would you place a Buff All Cards thread? I feel the subforum for buffs is the correct place for this thread.

The guidelines point is a fair one. However most of the guidelines can still be followed with this thread.

increase the quntum cost to maybe 2500 but a buff to any upgraded card is needed

Assertions are nothing without reasons to support them. Please give more support for your claim.
PS  :electrum is electrum,  :water is quanta.
