As it has been in the past couple of seasons, I decided to rent an Alric to help me climb up to Silver I and end the season with 18 chests. I wouldn't have been able to do it without one as I can't get enough of a winning streak to move forward.
This season, it was easy to get into Silver but thereafter, it was pretty hard to get moving forward beyond. Anyway, as the top rewards show, it will end in Silver I again.
What do I hope for the end of season rewards? At least a gold foil or an epic or legendary card. I don't recall the past couple of season having good rewards, but that can all change in an instant with one good card.
