I also don't have any flow of packs going, is there someone here who's been relatively successful with tournaments that could post their bronze/iron team to help us out a little?

Remember, there are players who are dedicated and spend the time to carefully craft their teams and to actually play the tournaments, so you might have to content yourself with lower rewards than the top prize. However I found that, when I had taken this approach, and entered three tournaments every couple of hours, I could get into a dozen or so and would earn 50 to 100 packs a week, once I had a decent team set. When I was short of time, or disinterested, I would try to get into the daily tournaments that have diamond rewards. You hit one or two of those and you're walking in tall cotton. Iron or bronze have the quickest turnover and are the easiest teams to build. Don't overlook the cap tournaments, like the bronze 1350. They're quirky and easy to get lucky in. In short, let the hard core folks do the hard work for you and you can get a full meal from their scraps.

on top of that.... do NOT overlook the Perfect Draft tourneys... in v23 you get two entries (vs just one in v22)... doesn't matter what cards you have on your actual roster, in PD you draft your 26 cards from the pool presented to you... so with a little luck, you get the right combo of cards and nab some prizes (I already won one of the PD tourneys I entered... huzzah!

now just need to win the one with the 50K point prize or something

)
