AW Berna also won't cost you or any other rogues a three-star when she/they dies (though she has to be deployed if other rogues die).

Zero drops doing Spirit Rescue G is my standard luck
Im not sure if rogues are specifically better than any units in some situations, most other units are better at handling them imo, correct me if im wrong, tho berna is exception ofc with her %30 assassination chance, i saw her assassinating whole swarm and not letting anything passing through.
Tokens do invalidate AW Berna a bit, but if you're tight on cost and/or short on duelists that can survive, using free RNG can help.
For example, if we got a revival of Solano's Mighty Ogres X.

While this is true, those rogues ARE taking up deployment slots in your team, where you could instead bring Memento and do the same thing with 5-cost skeletons. Granted those skeletons don't have 50% evasion nor assassination chance but they're not taking up slots in your team either. Only reason I can see to actually make significant use of AW Berna's "rogue = token" ability is if you have multiples of Berna. Other rogues will likely die quickly against anything that you'd actually need tokens instead of duelists to slow down, while taking up deployment slots and not being able to use their assassination chance immediately. Of course, I believe it still applies to AW Berna herself, so there's that at least (if evasion and assassination RNG let you down). Would be nice if Berna's AW ability applied to Ninjas as well, they're also sneaky people of the night XD
Lol at the idea of a Berna Clone Assassin Squad

Well, I already sold both of my Berna clones for Danchou, so I can't test out that strat anymore.
Would've been great for Dwarfs and Giants though.
Seems like Berna is a good unit to have but can also be very particular as you can always use other units should you have them. Still it is good to have her.
On topic I am making most of the dailies to get orbs and story mod to farm units to upgrade my own. Though I am burning through the cash doing so. Have gone from 4,000,000 down to 1,200,00 cash and still have units I need to upgrade. My goal at the moment is to max my units lvls without CCing and AWing them, so that none of my units are sitting at lvl 1-20 anymore. If they were all ready CCed and Awakened then I am lvling them to their max lvl.
Though it is only when you try to lvl all your units that you realize how many you really have, whether you use them or not. It is very costly and was slow going until this drop rate increase but now I burn through the cash quicker haha, had hoped to AW Betty so I could 'Gold Get' but don't have enough DC's for a AWing Spirit. So I guess I'll have to make do with the cash I got, though it isn't going to be enough to take advantage of this drop rate forever, Unless I start selling the units here and there to get more gold.
I just leave it here:
And with later patches this Whirlwind of Death hits fliers as well!
It's long hit me as kinda funny how often people underestimate Berna's defenses. People just see "rogue" and squawk about RNG but evasion is actually a pretty nifty complementary defense when you're talking about a unit that already has static defenses roughly on par with a Platinum princess. 50% is unreliable in terms of surviving a one shot kill but when you're talking about a unit that can already survive 3 swings from most opponents that 50% chance can be interpreted as a 93.75% chance to require least 5 swings instead of 4 before dying. She's not super impressive by black standards prior to skill awakening and dat wave clear but her raw stats already make her far more generically useful than the other rogues.
