Well still trying to find best defense card(excluding super rares, and you might be interested to know that in the long run the alligator begins to beat even burglar+, great tortoise, and roman soldier. This is even better when looked at the point of view of money. The burglar+ maxes at 5100 defense and roman soldier maxes at 5000 defense, but these require to be leveled to 50 which is very expensive(82,000 tokens from lvl 40 to 41). While the alligator only requires being leveled to 40. Now on to the data, the series for defense increase is approximately (6+1.7n). This is off by a bit, but its hard to tell how to correct with no high level values. Here's what you can expect for defense values:

Lvl 10- 3841

Lvl 15- 3974

Lvl 20- 4148

Lvl 25- 4364

Lvl 30- 4624

Lvl 35- 4926

Lvl 40- ~5300 (I calculated 5270, but since maxes don't have a tens value.)

So what does this mean? So far, alligator is best defensive card in the long run. Hopefully I didn't mess with the card market too much.
