    They don't give you a good UR anymore? Ugh. When I used it, the choices were Dragon of Echigo, Tiger of Kai, Demon King of the Six Heavens, Taikou Hideyoshi, Tohsho Daigongen, and Luis Frois. I assumed that it was still a "pick your favorite UR", as newer UR generals have been added to jade ticket. Dragon of Echigo, Tiger of Kai, and Taikou Hideyoshi are all preferable to any of the six choices you list. Oh well. Save any UR EVO or Universal EVO cards that you have the good fortune to get until you get a Tiger of Kai or Master Strategist to use them on.

    At least the new trainer event should let you get some SR generals to high levels quickly. I'd recommend focusing on the trainer event and going as far in it as you can until either you've done all of the generals that you can 30 times each that day before farming any other content besides the convoys in the daily/daimyo world bosses. When you're new, the first thing you need is to get a team of max level generals with skills that are useful to inherit later. The copper from the trainer event will help you, too.

    The list from the freshman ticket is as you said i have just been lazy and told their name instead of their UR name xD Only Tohsho Daigongen i forgot her name. (It's why i said tohsho but i didn't say the full name)

    What i mean by saying i didn't had to choose between Tiger of Kai and Master Strategist was because Master wasn't available while Tiger was there.

    Well that sure makes the decision easy for you. Interesting to know that newer UR generals haven't since been added.

    Is there a consensus on the best use for free koban? I unlocked the second dojo slot, but otherwise have been hoarding. More inventory slots would be nice, but they sure seem pricey.

    The single best use of Koban is, when there is an event with unusually good rewards that you weren't going to get, buying the rations and/or fast battle tickets necessary to make sure you get those rewards. This only applies to events with unusually good rewards. In the current rebellion event, if TruelyNice and Aqua-chan spent all the souls they've gotten from the event on soul tickets, they've probably gotten over 130 soul tickets each so far. That's huge, but you'd better believe that they're burning a ton of koban on fast battle tickets to make that happen.

    But the rebellion event (which formerly ran as the crusader event) only gives such great rewards if you can kill the boss in one battle, and the rewards drop off precipitously if it takes you 10 battles to clear it. The other notable event was the last four opponents in the summer generals/water gun event, which had a 0.2% chance of dropping an SSR EVO card. You could only fight them 50 times each, for 200 per day in total, which didn't necessarily require spending koban. But if you would have missed the rewards without spending koban, it was worth it to spend it.

    There are diminishing returns to buying more dojo slots, but it's a reasonable thing to buy. You'll need more inventory slots if you decide you want to equip gear on your defense team, not just your offense team, but you don't really need more inventory slots than you can buy with copper unless and until you decide you want to do that.

    After that, summons are probably the best place to spend your spare koban. Platinum x11 or some event summons are the most efficient to buy with koban. But there's absolutely nothing wrong with hoarding koban to make sure that you have what you need for events when an important event shows up. If you're playing completely free and not buying the monthly pass, you're probably not going to have the spare koban for very many koban summons, anyway.

    Do not waste koban on shortening cooldowns, buying copper directly, buying the last boat at the port, buying construction tickets, or buying gold summon tickets. Those are all massively wasteful.

    I think I started during the summer event, so I wasn't strong enough to get to the end battles, and I haven't yet seen a need to buy rations or FB tickets, but I can see how it would be useful. I guess the plan for now is to keep hoarding, and if I end up with more stashed than I think I need, I can drop the 1500 on summons.

    I like the constant free exp from the dojo, but it's such a drop in the bucket compared to exp cards from events. I'm certainly not feeling tempted to drop 1000 koban on another slot.

    Before the current rebellion event, I had only ever spent 50 koban on fast battle tickets and nothing on rations, relying instead on getting them by other means. But a soul ticket about every 60 battles or so, repeatable infinitely often, is far too good of a deal to pass up. By the time the event is over, I'll probably have spent about 4000 koban on them, which should drain my reserves of it entirely. But that will probably be good for something over 100 soul tickets over the course of the event. So far, out of 63 soul ticket draws from the event, I've gotten 2x UR Master Strategist, 2x SSR Takeda Shingen of Kai, and 1x UR EVO card, so it's worth it. That's massively better than anything else I could hope to get with 4000 koban, or 6000 if you count the standard rations and fast battle tickets that I had accumulated before the event started and have since used.
