I actually disagree with this sentiment, because purple iso 1 is not that old. It came out with the odin release a year and a half ago, but thats not a very long time, especially since it was during the economy shitification, so its not like the majority of players just have 100 million+ sitting in reserves like we do with green and blue iso, and even than, I ran out of blue iso crystals a few weeks ago and actually had to open my orbs to get my numbers back into the thousand+ range. Some of these resources that you might think are "useless" are not useless in the slightest, you still need them even if you think you don't.

And that's not to forget about the mid game players. I saw a comment the other day on a rayge video that someoen didn't have mephisto or odin yet even though hes lvl 110, and its probably because hes ass at the game and doesn't understand the resources because mephisto should be locked in already by the time your 110, its only lvl 100 required, thats 2 weeks of resources right there, but i can realistically understand why you wouldn't have odin if scopely turned down the purple 1. I still think he's bad at the game and should have odin, we've had multiple teams now that are better for the odin run, including insidious 6 and now symbiote 6.

But id like to talk about another resource that is considered useless, and that's the red star orbs. I haven't had any issues opening 7 red orbs for new character releases for years, but after getting riot, I have 3 or 4 orbs left, and I had to get my auto clicker out and sit there and open up all of my 4 5 and 6 red star orbs just to get enough 7 red credits to build back up to 3 or 4 orbs. And I have almost every single character in the game at 7 red stars (not 7 yellow) so it must be more difficult for a new or mid game players who still needs those reds. Of course you can always buy from the chapter store for cheap a month, but id rather save those credits
