    I guess that's a good point to make kayfabe. But if that's the case , it doesn't seem like a very healthy way to balance the game : does this user has lapis ? Easy life. He does not ? Well , screw him

    It's definitely playing with fire. Lapis and B. Iris aren't 100% broken in the strictest sense of "The gameplay is now bullshit" but they are irritatingly desirable. Luckily, they buff units rather than single handedly destroy everything themselves and we're talking about a freemium single player game where people want to catch all the waifus rather than a competitive multiplayer game. So as game warpingly powerful as B. Iris and Lapis may be they're not set up in a manner where you'd actually want to run multiple copies of them to the total exclusion of other units. That means they're fundamentally incapable of completely screwing up the game as badly as a couple of horribly overpowered releases might end up warping the meta of a card game or a MOBA--people might get annoyed that they take up slots virtually by default on the hardest maps but at least they'll never turn some competitive ladder into a boring series of mirror matches. At worst their eventual necessity might drive off a few freebie players but there's ways of addressing that problem like anniversary tickets and power creeping other units.

    I wouldn't hold onto it tbh if we get it. As far as i know they haven't added new units to the black ticket since it was released, and Lapis came out a while after the black ticket did. Have heard the black pool from the ticket is quite permanent.

    Lapis is without a doubt a really overpowered black and just murders everything in her path with constantly ticking true damage. Another unit that is rather nice is Kibahime, who came out at the same tim as her (i got both in 4 rolls) but she was a bit overshadowed by Lapis in the start because Lapis is loved by everyone.

    Other very good blacks we have not gotten yet are Wendy and Rinne, they're both amazing and Rinne is super popular everywhere. No, i can't be arsed to look them up for you, i need to head to work :P

    No real argument here. I'm not defending the devs so much as I'm saying that Lapis is stupid powerful but hasn't caused the sky to start falling. I mean, hey, i's entirely possible that they'll just let her be an easy mode unit for whales to chase, so maybe my criticism will amount to very little. Who knows? I ain't psychic.

    When speaking about brokenness, there's also an nice little case of Narsus, and while we will 1000% not going to get him in our version (being limited, premium, and collab unit for all-age side of DMM onry and all), so won't be affected by that wonderful fcku, his disgusting overpoweredness is a thing to behold.
