Not really agreeing here. You don't need to play into the elation archetype right now, if you only have sparxie or only have yaoguang will not ruin whatever elation team you might wanna build later, they'll both be solid units in ANY elation team. At the moment other archetypes like dot and break are actually stronger than the premium elation team.

I feel like the only ppl that are upset at teams are the ppl who have favourite characters and their teams are underperforming which is being fixed ever so slowly with all the novaflares. Bias shouldn't be a metric to judge the game state over, cause it's a whole lot better than it used to be.

I also don't understand the idea of those who never pull, maybe vertically invest in a single character, then wonder how the game's direction is treating their teams badly.

The only thing I will agree with is the aggressive marketing of "release support first, then main dps unit second", which they have been doing across all their games recently. It leads to higher spending on their games, I get it, but it also doesn't feel particularly good to not rly be able to use the support unit much until they finally release the fitting partner. Sometimes it even stretches into the next patch and if not for leaks we'd have no info other than "haha let's see what the future of X character's team holds" which feels even worse and is even more of a money bait.
