I think drop effect is okay but boost may be slightly better. This game simply have 2 variables: Atk and Def. Battle results just compare these two variables, the bigger number wins the battle. Its different from other game which has at least 3 variables: HP, Atk and Def. In that case Drop effects shoud be better, but it doesn't work in this game.

"If enemy ATKx0.8, then drop card is very very useful. Same as GB to element DEF 25%" Sorry, this is wrong. 20% atk drop can cancal the 25% boost effect, but does not mean increaseing your def 25%. Just think about your atk 100K, your enemy 80Kdef.

Just thinking two numbers X and Y, and two skill 25% boost and 20% drop. if X>Y, boost better; X=Y, it doesn't matter; X<Y, drop better, but in this case, you probably will lose because your enemy also has skills ( think 1.25^3X<1.25^3Y or X<1.25^3*0.8^3Y), really it doesn't matter either. Also, boost effect really depends on you, but drop depends on your enemy. My opinion, single 25% drop better than 25% boost, 25% boost and 20% drop not a big difference but boost give you awesome number :)

Note, it's based on the assumption all skills multiple each other, if they are additive may get different conclusion.
