Conclusion
As you can see, trading common cards — either by trading with your clan mates inside the clan or with the trader — is the best way to spend Gold to earn Elite Wild Cards. This is followed by buying Commons and rares at the shop, which has equal value. Buy far the worst value you can get is buying Epic cards at the shop, which is 9 times worse than trading Commons. The shop offer for Elite Wild Cards is also not a good deal either, but it‘s still better than buying Epic cards at the shop.
So spend your Gold wisely and trade your Commons! If you’re one of the lucky players who have too much Gold and is sitting at 5 million max, then by all means, spend them all.
