Starter Cards in Dragonrift Ascension
Starter cards are used for safe early-game learning, first team building, and beginner progression. The best choice is not always the rarest card; it is the card that improves your lineup, supports your battle plan, and gives duplicates a clear fusion purpose.
Fusion read
Do not plan long-term fusion around Starter cards. Treat them as a baseline that helps you judge whether a new pull actually improves a role.
Watch out
A full Starter lineup is easy to read in battle. Replace one role at a time so the team keeps a tank, a tempo card, and a damage card.
