Here is my weekly status and giveaway. I also talk about an OST track that I like. Please make sure to read the rules to qualify for the giveaway. I chose a track from a game that I played in the past. Hive PUD is tomorrow, so this post will come a day earlier.
Pyro Labyrinth
I chose Pyro Labyrinth as this week's track because this week was very hectic. There was a holiday on Monday but after that, I was just busy the entire week. I feel quite tired, and it made me think of this track. Pyro Labyrinth plays in Trials of Reverie during the escape sequence from a dungeon on Lloyd's route. They struggled as hard as they could, and at the very end, Lloyd is separated from the rest of the team with flames all around him. I am glad that Noel came in clutch at the end on the bike and saved Lloyd. Also, this was the dungeon that I needed to do a new game plus for because this was a dungeon you could not re-enter, and I was one chest off from collecting all chests during my first run.
I think about Noel Seeker when I listen to this track. She was just the key person who jumped into danger to save Lloyd during these events, and that always stood out to me. Also, during Reverie, I choose to use her as one of my range tanks after setting her up with evasion quartz. Having good long-range characters work better, so I tend to use her more compared to other characters in the cast. I think she left alot to be covered in Zero/Azure as she wasn't developed as much, but I still like her as a character. The image comes from the wiki for Noel Seeker.
Do you like any of these tracks? If so, why?

Current Status
I gained 101k STARBITS over the past week. It was another busy week, and I didn't have as much time as I would like. I felt like I was rushed the entire week, and Rising Star wasn't on my mind as much. I should get back to it as I want to still earn enough STARBITS to open packs every single week and skipping out on all of these missions isn't looking good for my reserves. I did get an epic card though.
Current Ranking
My rank went up by 3. I was expecting it to go down, so I don't know what is going on as I am barely in the top 100 now.

I think the tips are something every new player should know about. It will help people progress in the game and it hasn't really been shared since surya1adiga stopped his giveaways.
- Take music lessons when possible to raise skill and reduce ego.
- Having lesson specific instruments helps in receiving more skill from that lesson.
- Have pizza box to store any pizza received during mission to reuse later.
- Buy cold pizza slice if possible. This gives 1 refill every 24hours. Comes very handy when you are low on energy.
- If you have enough of cold pizza slice and pizza box, you will never run out of energy.
- If you have more fans than skill and you won't reduce the ego , you can use a storage trailer to store unnecessary cards. Or you can list the card in market for an unreasonably high price.
- Ego received for a particular mission increases every time you play it. The ego is reset to base level the next day. So, try to play different missions to control the ego gained.
Keep track of your achievements to unlock in game rewards- Buy storage trailer (only if necessary) to keep the cards that might have a negative effect. Like a card with high fan count resulting in ego.
- When earning skill points through music lessons, you can earn more points per lesson if you hold more of specific instrument cards. There seems to be base skill which is rewarded irrespective of the card count and then the skill increases depending on the number of the lesson specific card one has.
- Try taking up many smaller missions to fill up pizza boxes and have extra energy to play more rewarding missions. But you need to have pizza boxes for this to work.
