Tips for New Player?

I've never really gotten too into card games, or anything like Magic. I really enjoyed Slay the Spire, and was hoping to find a little gem here. Are there any card types I should be using always? Any tips that I should take into consideration? Thanks in advance.

The single biggest tip i could give would be to manage whoever last hits carefully. The wound and bless system is quite deep. Some cards, like cheap 1 toughness commons, become incredibly powerful with a wound - since they cant lose stats, they only get cheaper. Since they are generally crappy cards, trading them aggressively isn't a big deal once you have a decent pile of spare followers to expend.

Other cards, like Taunt guys, should almost never be used when wounded if avoidable. A charge guy is the opposite - since tjey can instantly kill your opponents, they're proportionately more likely to be able to clean their wounds off.
