    The Battle Pass is relatively inexpensive & you will gain the necessary Crystals for this fairly quickly.

    There are third party sites that sell codes online that you can redeem in the game.

    @Mewnfair There is no monetization in PTCGL, and IMO it's better this way, rather than having pay to win system where you could buy mountain-pile of booster packs or bundles to gain advantage if you have money for it.

    You can redeem codes from PTCG products can purchase in stores, and obtain items in-game, otherwise the PTCGL system is build around playing with what you got for starter, and farm crystals in battle pass, ranked play and daily quests, in order to exchange them for bundles and boosters.

    From what I've noticed though, exchange crystals for boosters is not very good way to get decent cards, and since there is no trade in PTCGL, only reliable way to get decent cards is either from bundle, or when you exchange credits for the card you need.

    Generally, the best use of Crystals is to convert them into Credits and then use the Credits to craft the specific cards you want.

    If you have a good collection of Celebrations cards, then buying Celebrations packs is best. If you don't have many Celebrations cards, then buy the Shadow Rider Calyrex League Battle Deck.
