Guide

Use the keeper rule

Only chase premium traits like Monarch or Ethereal on a unit you expect to keep. A perfect trait on a temporary unit is still a temporary upgrade.

Carry before support

The main carry touches more waves and bosses than any other slot. Trait Shards go there first unless your carry is already stable and your support is clearly limiting the run.

Economy traits are conditional

Economy traits matter when they change upgrade timing. If the economy unit is not affecting the run, do not spend premium rerolls there yet.
