Listed below are several Beginners Tips and Tricks which will help you in Counter: Side.
Play the Tutorial
Counter: Side comes with an in-depth tutorial to help new players. Don't make the mistake of ignoring it as doing so will cause confusion later in the game. Keep in mind that Counter: Side is an ever-developing game which means that is will take hours of gameplay before you reach or achieve the full potential of your counters so it is important that you understand what you are trying to achieve.
Follow the Main Story First
If you are new to Counter: Side it is recommended that you start by following the main story. This means you need to unlock the stages to reach episode 4 making sure you prioritize the beginner missions. Doing this will allow you to unlock many helpful auto-run stages and the systems from the game. It will also enable you to get many rewards, keep in mind that those missions will only be available for 30 days, so you need to complete them all before the time ends.
Use your Diamonds to Grow

Save your Quartz for Summoning Tickets
Quartz is the premium currency in Counter: Side and as you would expect is not easy to acquire unless you spend real money purchasing it. There are ways to get Quartz for free, but these take time and effort grinding. Make sure you save the Quartz you earn for Summoning Tickets as the game requires you to build a team of powerful counters, and you will need to be able to summon a lot of them.
Level Up the Normandy Ship
Aside from your Counters you need to make sure you level up the Normandy, the Undercontrol, and Coffin ships.
