How do you get ranked to Ultimate League?
I need to know how to get ranked up in PvZ Heroes. I haven't been ranking up since worldwide release. I haven't seen any advantage on this game. There was no elements that is very OP.

@Goo0di you think less than $3 is why I'm at level 48? LOL. that must have been one amazing pack of cards I bought.
@jaydabbler I'm not talking about the cards.
I'm talking about the fact that the game gives you a card is not random, but with certain coefficients. If you pay the money then you get the right cards. The game puts you in the category of people who pay. In this category people become more "lucky" and get the right card at the right moment. This is done in many games, to encourage those who pay.
- No, this game does not do that

That's completely ridiculous.
@GrinningRuiner LoL. Do you think the card are issued by total randomness? Of course not, the game has coefficients, I am sure there is a difficult mechanics inside. At the beginning, the game is give to you cards basically not more than the price of 1-3. The farther away, the more expensive cards appears, you think this is a coincidence?

I wish you good luck and all the best for the rest of your life.
@GrinningRuiner Thank you! But you have not answered my question - do you think it is random?
I am ready to spend an experiment with you. You add me to the game and we will do 100 fights with a single deck. In the deck, only one card of each type. We will not fight, only to watch the starting card. Make a table and then brought in the table the results. And calculate statistics loss cards. If the game gives you a complete random - all cards will be approximately the same percentage of loss. But I think there is a strong imbalance in the direction of cheap card in the first stage. Let's do it?I do not have that kind of time lol.... I've had plenty of games feed me all expensive cards to start, re-rolled all 4 cards, and got the same to start.
That's when you learn to only have 6-8 expensive cards in your entire deck.

This seems pretty out there!
Here's the thing, in this day and age of the internet and the hive mind, where people can easily put together data and calculate rates and probabilities, a company would be quite stupid to try something like that without being transparent about it. There are various reasons:
- That kind of thing (giving better luck based results to those who pay money) because people are quite against that. The norm is that people who pay will have access to more chances, but the chances are equal for everyone.
- If they did make internal changes to the coefficients for the RNG used for people who pay, then it would make absolutely no sense NOT to market it. Why give those who are paying more without telling them, they already paid anyway, and they aren't going to realize that they are getting more because there is no information indicating so. What is the point then? It would just mean that people who are already keen to pay would need to pay LESS!
- If they are doing it and are hiding it, and people discover it, that would be terrible marketing for a company, completely not worth the total lack of extra revenue that doesn't actually exist if they do implement something like that.
Given this, there is no reason to do it. You can call PopCap greedy if you are inclined to do so, but if they were, then this idea would not be in their best interest.
You say that this is done in many games. I can imagine some small and ignorant indy developer who actually thinks that this helps implementing this in their small mobile game but even then, is there proof of this? Which are these games that do this? Or is this just a bunch of people who don't understand probabilities and think that companies are both stupid and incredibly greedy making the same assumptions for all these other games?
When I started to play this game I used 2 euros so that is pretty much 'free player' I'm at ultimate league. Right deck with 60-80% win rate gets me there easy. Sometimes I lost only 1-2 games per taco level. Sometimes I lost even 20 times before next level.
Tip. Play chompzilla with 4x 2nd best tacos of all time. Build deck with good late and mid game cards with couple of early game counters. Only weakness I notice is lucky rush with pet zombies or valkyrie can beat it.
