Tactics give best time vs improvement ratio, but to keep improving you'll need a little bit of everything.

Given your ratings here, definitely tactics. But I'd recommend using both Tactics Trainer and CT-Art, which will allow you repeat tactics so you cam ingrain tactical patterns into long term memory.

I use both whenever possible.

But as a Gold member, I only get 3 Mentor lessons per day and 25 TT per day
