Is it worth going all in for CYL 2?

Ok so first off we can all agree that the skills these units got power crept to hell. This was more or less expected. If these new skills are inheritable than i can see how this would completely shift the meta (mainly from what Hector and Ephraim have).

What i'm getting at is it really worth it to load up on these units since i know many have been saving orbs for awhile. Are these units so game breaking that its worth dropping everything you have or is it still more beneficial maybe just get a copy of each (unless you really want those skills) and just move on, continuing to save and spend on B8% banners instead?

Personally, I'm not spending any orbs on this banner except for the, what, 15 orbs along with the Free Summon on the normal CYL banner. The main unit I was wanting to be good was Ephraim, and him being an armored unit kinda screwed that over for me. Veronica was the next unit I was banking on being the unit I 'wanted' and while she looks good, she's not really "Oh my god!" material, and I have no interest in a Blue Hector, or another red Celica.

I'd suggest saving, but that's just me.

Why is Ephraim being armored a bad thing?

I think Celica will be an absolute monster on Arena Defense. And imagine her once we get a Renewal Seal!

Just me personally not liking Armored units that much. He's not a bad unit generally speaking.

Gotcha. I definitely get that, though. They're the most unispired unit type, for sure.

Honestly, im still going to summon for eithrr hector or veronica, they both has something i need, since i dont have dc blue armor unit and satisfying cav healer( im looking at you -spd nanna and -spd elise)

CYL Always powercreeps things from skills to units themselves, but they are'nt as game breaking as the first CYL since the first CYL CHANGED the Meta while this time the units are just Really strong additions to an already strong Meta.

So yeah it's worth to spend a lot of orbs on this banner but if it does'nt interest you then spend your free summon and go on your way.

Was more or less wondering if others felt a little unimpressed as i did. Certainly they're really good units but for those of us who have already built up plenty it just didn't feel like these were "MUST haves".

I'll be getting one of each, but I've no desire to +10 any one of them. I'm super into both Veronica and Celica's art. Definitely need those two just based on that.

They're powerful. For people like me, with absurdly terrible bad luck on armored units, and meta defining skills, this is a chance at getting those skills, along with new units with better stats. However, if you've already got your units that fit the role of what these units are trying to fill, then just roll a bit, and save the rest. I'm sure they're going to pull off another "CYL part 2." Nobody else calls it that, but me. However, back when we had our first batch of CYL units, they came out with Dorcas, Mia, and Lute, which was a banner comprised of other high ranking units, so there's always that to consider.

I don't think any of them is truly game breaking and since they stay in the permanent pool I don't think you have to go out with a copy of each of them as well. I mean sure people will have fun with DB4 (esp the Reinhardts) and we might see more armor emblem in arena and AA but it's not worth spending every orb into this banner imo.

Personally I will try a couple of summoning sessions for Veronica and Celica (because I like Celica as character and Veronica has cool skills) and hope to get one of them at least. Then I will just pick the other one with my free summon. Ephraim and Hector seem really good, but I don't really like armored units so I'll give them a hard pass.
