Best strategy to collect cards?

So, I'm pretty new to this game and have been playing it a lot since about a week before Christmas. I try to use my ticket boosts when they're available and I make sure I do the quests so that I neve...

    I recommend to buy the normal packs, ''Premium Pack, Galactic Pack and Colossal Pack''.

    Once I decided to buy a specific pack of Knuckle Grass, that costs 2000,  it was the biggest disappointment I've had, no legendary, few super rare,  and the same number of useless cards as a pack of 1000. it is really preferable to buy the 1000 pack. 

    Premium pack can give you even a hero, if you are very lucky. 

    Of course they give you all the cards of all heroes (both plants/zombies) in a disorderly manner, but you save much more than that expensive pack of 2000 that gives you the same amount, only that of a specific hero...

    Daily Quests/Heroes Quests

    Ads

    Advancing in the league

    And... that's all

    the daily challenges give you the event card of the week, and if you complete all challenges they give you a one pack (100).

I figured it wouldn't hurt to get another opinion, since I'm not too familiar with it all. Otherwise, I do all the things that you all have recommended: quests, watching ads, making sure I use ticket boosts. I'm not exactly free to play, I spent 20$ to get some gems to use for opening Premium and Galactic packs, and overall it was a pretty decent haul. As a matter of fact, part of what tempted me to spend the money in the first place was because my first 10+1 pack got me Rose and Spudow, and I've since added Nightcap to my collection as well, all just by opening packs. Maybe one day I'll open a zombie hero! Hopefully my collection will grow at a pretty steady pace, I love the idea of the weekly events, getting free cards is great, so is being able to get sparks from any extra copies. Thanks again for the advice, hopefully I'll be able to climb to diamond this season instead of just gold.

Another piece of advice from someone who loves to learn the hard way....if you do craft cards, like I said before, make sure that it's not a card you may be getting in a month from event or whatever, and I have always been wary of crafting a fourth card to complete a set because I have on at least three separate occasions, pulled the same card that I crafted, only to have to recycle it for basically peanuts in comparison to how much we pay.
And the "free to play" label is kinda hard to lump every single player in one of two categories.
The pay to win players in my opinion, are those who buy the event cards only available for cash and use them for an advantage over players who don't have access to the cards.
Spending a few bucks to support a game you enjoy, and/or to just get a few packs is not the same thing to me
