The thing is, this Umi, idolized, is still on my Japanese Pure team. Not that I have
a ton of good cards (my EN Pure team is actually much better than my JP one, because
I have 1 idolized UR and another UR), but being someone who has T2’ed most of
the events, that is saying something. 

Of course you are also picking up the loveca stones for ranking up in the event. I
don’t know if you’re calculating that. And at such a low level, if you have NEET
levels of time, you can use the level ups to your advantage. :P If you time things

perfect, you can get full quite a few full LP restores. But it could be hard because
this is ScoreMatch, but the algorithm is supposed to match you to people that score
around the same amount as you do, but I wonder about that sometimes. ^_^;
