And, her skill does not feature power multiplier (only range), so she is less suited for the burst healing. Her AW ability is major healbomb, but plat and free gold healers have something like that already.
And, most importantly, there will always be a hope of her event finally hitting our shores, what weights heavily on her status as premium unit.)

Oh, and there's also the little thing that Saint Illys, whom she replaced, is simply outright broken, outrageously so, as far as healer/support goes
I can understand if liana is worse than most plat healers, but if these blacks you mentioned if we can get them only from shrine then liana is our (f2p) only optimal choice between healers. I mean cmon, should i use alissa while even i have her? iirc other healers were mostly shrine units too, dunno, should take a look at jp wiki.
