I've Been Away a Long Time. Shards? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=47287.msg1046648#msg1046648

I have a ton of cash but no shards and it seems to beat the currents FGs I should have them.  Problem is that I don't know how to get them and I couldn't find the solution in the forums.   

Thanks in advance for your help.

Just play in the Arena and get a win streak to get to the special spins at the end.

^ That. Course if you've been away so long you don't know what shards are, then the arena is probably new to you as well.

The arena replaced the Top50. There are 4 leagues divided by difficulty and level. Decks are made/submitted by players, who receive a certain amount of "skill points" based on their level, which is dependant on score. Points are spent on upgrades to health, # of upgrades, double draw, and mark multiplier. Basically, if you're level 80, your arena deck is of false god power.

Now, winning a set number of games in a row gives you a special spin. The special spin is filled with rare cards. If you don't win a rare after the wheels are done spinning, you get to respin any individual column that you wish, up to 3 times each, until you do get one.

Bronze League = Level 0-19, 5 wins in a row, unupgraded rare card spin
Silver League = Level 20-39, 4 wins in a row, unupgraded rare card spin
Gold League = Level 40-59, 3 wins in a row, upgraded rare card spin
Platinum League = 60-80, 2 wins in a row, upgraded rare card spin

It's also worth mentioning that if you can build a deck capable of reliably grinding at least silver league, the arena will be infinitely more profitable then grinding AI0-4. Happy hunting. :)

But there's also the option that with those extra-spin for each column, you don't get any rare :(
