If you were struggling on the 50, then you may as well give up on clearing the 80 with just slight improvements. It's better to just grind out the story maps and build up your team efficiently and forego the current event, and possibly even the event after that.
What's the point of scraping and struggling to get a 1 slot/skill 1 5★ when a fully evolved, 100% affection, 2 slot/2 skill 4★ would be far better? This is the mindset of people thinking somehow that certain units are better on a moonshot pull or a lame event reward, when they have potential money winners already in their inventory or within their grasp. Again, many of you are overvaluing 5★ and 6★ girls, citing statistics, and ignoring the myriads of variables that make it impossible for the normal player to obtain. Nutaku feeds into this narrative, actively encouraging this kind of rhetoric, as it encourages whales and people spending real money.
The fact of the matter is that the game (most games) can be played for free and without the need for all of these high level girls. The one exception I've encountered is in the realm of ranking and PvP (games like Valkyrie Crusade, School Girl Strikers, Rage of Bahamut, etc.), where having all the best of the best, minute differences in power and performance, all of this can change the rewards you earn. Games like FKG, however, are simply and purely single player focused, and are casual in nature.
You can beat the game without killing yourself over obtaining all the 5★ and 6★ girls. If you can get them with some luck on the available pulls, then more power to you. But people need to get out of the mindset that the only way you can clear events and have fun is through having 4 teams of rainbow girls.
