Hey guys, I am a new player to this game.

Hello forums as mentioned in the title , I am a new player for this game and even to the forums. So it would be very generous of you guys if you help me in my journey.
So this was my Day 1 and I had been prepared a little before starting the game. I had saw some videos of guides and gameplays in YouTube to help me out. So I completed act 1 today. And this is my roster.

So here are my set of questions, I want to ask you guys.
1]How is my progression on Day 1 ?
2]Who should I rank up?? Or should I wait for some more champs
3] I have read about variants and about mastery build up, so I can't see variant in my game. Is there any specific level to unlock variants??
4] What should be my next aim??
5] How can I change my profile pic in the forums??

Thankyou in advance. I would be posting more queries , so please look out for any new messages in this post. Once again thank you for your support guys.

1: Your progress is pretty good
2: Id say wait for your first 4*
3: you unlock variants by unlocking level 45
4:Your aim should be to rush through story

1. For a new player, your progression is fine
2. You don't need to rank anyone up yet, I would wait
3. Varients are higher end content made for end-game players. They unlock at level 45
4. Your next aim is act 2. Push as far in story as you can
5. There is a guide on how to change your forum profile pic. Search it up

Variants are under the back issues tab.

There’s an article in the forums under Strategy and Tips on how to change the photo.

Fairly good progression honestly.

Next aim is just blitz story mode and do the event quest.

The champion and Luke Cage are solid investments.

Also, (shameless plug) I made a thread for people like you who have lots of questions. It’s here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/203501/are-you-new-do-you-have-a-question-ask-away#latest

Progression is pretty good on day one.
I would rank up a few 3*s to atleast r3 if a 4* is taking long. You certainly need champs, and you have 250k gold, so it won't hurt.
Mastery is necessary. Remember, the best mastery setup doesn't have everything unlocked, and max levels on whatever is unlocked. It is a balance of the best that your playstyle requires. Right now, you can complete some classics(classics are the lower versions of the variants you've read of) to get easy stoney cores. Unlock parry, desterity, 1 level each. Do not put any more levels into them for a long time.. Next, build up attack, lesser health, lesser attack, lesser cruelty, lesser precision aren't needed to be maxed at all. One level each, and store units for maxing out cruelty and precision. Also, glass cannon, courage, willpower, recovery need to be maxed.

Dont need to think about variants,atleast for now.

Next focus? Complete act2! Also, explore act 1 or 2 is possible, maybe. I did, but that was a really long time ago. You get a lot of units, though. Act 3 is no challenge, too. Act 4 miiiight be a little challenging. But its easy as well. I explored act 3 and 4 back in the day, but that was because act 3 gave a 4* crystal, which was rare then(yeah im an ancient player lol).

Do not buy crystals with units.
And do not be eternallu disappointed with kabams rng. Good luck 🙂😉
