Hey, 'newbie' here. I've been playing about a month, just learned this forum existed.

With my first 11-roll with premium gacha resulted in me getting three 5-stars (Rose, Nasturtium, Lantana) and a 6-star (Victoria Bride.) This set me up for disappointment as I fell into the trap of thinking future rolls would be just as easy.

With my next two 11-roll premiums, I only got one 5-star (Laurentia) and a 6-star (Epidendrum Swimsuit.) The rest were mostly three-stars.

I'm happy for the six stars though none of them have great personalities for me. I'm not even using Epidendrum Swimsuit yet as the voice and whole 'lazy character with cute animal friends' shtick wore thin on me. And Victoria's adorable, until I'm reminded she's the clinically insane yandere stereotype. (A strange mesh with her prim and proper personality otherwise.)

In recent days they had a Six-Star and a Five-Star Ticket on sale, and while I wouldn't want to spend money gambling on gachas, it seemed to make sense to take the sure thing and choose characters I wanted for my team. The first time around, I didn't know about this website, so I chose Cactace under the assumption she was a bit more of a tomboy. Oops! She's just really shy. Ah, well. I have a small cactus in my bedroom, so it still feels a fitting choice.

With my five-star ticket I chose Madonna, and she's quickly become my favorite.

How often are the tickets on sale in daily deals? At their price points this past week it seems a much more affordable route than investing hordes of money into flower gems or premium gacha draws. Don't want to become a whale or anything, but I could see myself investing less than $10 a month to get characters I like.
