At least that's how i understand that quote , so feel free to correct me if i'm wrong. Anyway , the point is that we're not actually sacrifing anything (since radars give only bouquetes , unlike stamina pots that could give battles >> so keys/casses ) , unless we would otherwise reach 50k with them (because , let's be honest , for a f2p , getting in top 100 would be next to impossible , and even then , the standing rewards are a joke). Considering we won't reach enough bouquetes for the card , the only thing i could probably lose , is some extra SR wild cards from a better standing (and wild cards is not something i really lack anyway right now ). So , no , we don't lose momentum , we just cut our loses by hoarding the rest of the radards/consumables , instead of waste them for very little gain. At least it may give us a better start in a future event

Good! That's exactly what I was saying.
And radars don't give only bouquets (Strong Chances, actually, but... same difference). WHat they do is pretty much reduce the chances for normal spins to something like 1% each. You still get one normal spin (triple spins included) every 30 or 50 spins under radar.

What you're missing is that, under radar, you actually get Battle spins about twice as regular. And there is where you're losing rewards.
Outside of that? No, not really losing much. I said in my first (or second, or third...) post exactly that: If you start the event, make numbers, and realize you're not reaching the wanted goal, just don't bother burning resources and stockpile them.

The problem seems to be you're still believing I'm always talking about your specific situation, when I'm generally trying to give advice for all the newbies that will come through this to get some help... Y'know, the people that, unlike us, haven't been at this already for 4 months and half a dozen events.

The onus of my posts is always that every player needs to learn/find the right balance between stockpiling and burning resources.
The only thing specifically about your posts I've disagreed until now is that remark about the event limeds being unreachable for F2Pers

And I fully agree with the F2P to Top100 part.
Remember those unlisted ranks I mentioned before? I consider myself rank 4 because that's the one that stops before reaching Top100. Rank 3 would be Top100, and Rank 2 Top50.

I could count the F2Pers that can reach Top100 with my hands. And I can do the same for casual P2Pers that can reach Top50.

And that's exactly my point when I talk about over-stockpiling... that no matter how much you stockpile (By you I mean any F2Per reading this), you'll never reach Top100 (or, if you do, as I have some times, it'll require pretty much full brunout of resources and 24/7 connection, and it'll be both hard to reach and hard to keep).

As such, there's a point when stockpiling resources is simply futile. The rewards are the same for all 200 players that get Top300, and they're usually marginally better than the other 200 that reach Top500. Thus, being in pos430 and stockpiling for two events to push once to reach pos290 will be a waste of two events. Same for being in Top300 and trying to push to Top100.

Currently, fact is that as long as you place Top1k (or Top500 in some events), you'll get the important limed SR, and a crapton of SR levels. After that, your only concern is divining which EP/Bouquet/Assist/Kill/etc rewards are both reachable and useful to try.
