*A big issue in this game is how collab units are near irrelevant in the game. Barely any collab unit is even remotely useful in today's meta which is infuriating considering how limited and hard to get they are. Almost all of them get outclassed by non-collab units that are way easier to get. Some of them like [[Meliodas]], [[Ban]], [[Berserker Guts]] and [[Griffith]] have their niches but require a lot of investment and a very specific team composition to get the most out of them. You'd think that just on the fact that they're limited time collab units, making them some of the best units in the game would be a priority but that isnt the case with this game.
