This would be great except that I won't be able to do a "perfect" promotion. Personally, I'd rather get a base 1* rare, than one that was already promoted.

GI Joe Battlegrounds ID:  7SrSvh I agree. I pulled a 2* Snake Eyes and was a little bummed that I wouldn't be able to do a perfect promotion. Then again, it will be a moot point if I don't play the game enough or get enough Snake Eyes cards.

I haven't quite figured out the "Upgrading" part of the game. I understand that it improves the abilities of the cards, but it seems like the only way to upgrade is to recruit via medals, or capture via flash bang. Going through the event, it seems like flash bangs are somewhat scarce, so I haven't been doing much upgrading. Perhaps I'm missing something. Yes, upgrading requires other cards to feed to your primary card. You can also get UC Hector that you can feed by winning PvP battles, e.g., 3 in a row within 10 minutes.
