Can I get an f in the comments or a $25 giftcard?

So, been summoning on this Tiki banner since it came out, always used 20 orbs per batch. Got NOTHING. Not even one single 5*. My luck SUCKS. Anyway, have a good day!

That's...30 summons no 5*? Rough. I had a streak like that in the middle of around 600 orbs fired at the banner, 34-ish summons on red and green, no 5*. Then things were better

There is a reason every legendary banner is called "bait banner".
Trust me my only legendary outside fjorm and LIke is only a Gunthra and Lyn. Most legendary banner pull result in salt

Any banner can be considered a bait banner. As some have said, "that's what banners are for." The reason why people accuse legendary banners so much is because a lot of them don't understand how the probabilities work and they go in with 100-150 orbs which is maybe a 50/50 gamble or worse, depending on colour, so at least half of them get disappointed. Most of the other half don't feel the need to publicize their pull, whereas the other 50% are quick to pour their frustration out here. Then even innocent, unassuming players get this distorted, mostly one-sided representation, and players who actually understand what's going on can't be troubled to exert themselves constantly to try to balance the representation of the banner. At some level, it is the fault of uninformed players for risky plays and blaming the banner when it's their expectations which were inaccurate. And now that GamePress has released an article on summoning statistics, I think it is even more their fault than before if they remain uninformed. (The article doesn't explain especially well, so I don't blame them entirely.) If they knew what to expect from less than 200 orbs, they would be a lot less frustrated and legendary banners would have reputations more appropriate to what they offer.

True. It just sometimes people got lucky and pull straight 5* in a row and other just spend their orb to get nothing. The true nature of gacha

Rolled 12 5* blues in total
Only 2 were Tiki
Little bummed out, but I can't be too mad.

I'm in the exact same boat - 11%. It literally makes me want to quit the game, like what's the point of doing quests and events for orbs, when you literally get nothing in return. Hopefully this just means we have better luck for the upcoming Halloween banner
