In the game, players can open a pack by spending Gems, that they can obtain by making an in-app purchase, farming, or giveaways. Gems are not used for anything else, other than to buy packs. They are somewhat limited if you don't purchase them, which is why it's better to carefully plan on what you want to get, and use them wisely on certain boxes instead of buying everything.

You should find a deck you want to play and pick an appropriate booster pack that contains cards what you need. Consumes Gem efficiently to avoid in-app purchase.
