   @DrRyanSkelton So in this week's episode of "should i roll this character in arknights" is blaze in the kernal headhunt or ines worth rolling for? And what do you think of the candle knight's kit and that weird Sanka cello player lady's kit?

     Blaze is super good and still holds up, but there's folks who will argue quite rightly that there are better options. Blaze was like THE first "put her down and she will solo a lane and kill everyone" char and she still sees a lot of play for me, but folks like Thorns, Mudrock, Mountain, Penance, Doc Croc's Revenge, all muscled in on her niche pretty hard so you have a lot of competition for her with slightly more refined kits. Honestly, Kernel banner is probably a bad deal though just because most of the Kernel era SSRs are powercrept by the newer stuff. Hellagur isn't bad but he's still kind of a whammy if you pull him. That said, Shamare is super good and more Texas pots aren't TOO bad so you could probably be forgiven for dropping at least to the G10.
     
     Ines is basically the most meta unit ahead but she's not an instant game winner like Fuckable Yato or Texas Alter, but she reveals invis even when she retreats, hits about as hard as Phantom, gives DP, steals ASPD and Atk from enemies letting her slightly nerf certain assholes. If you've used Cantabile at all you probably see how much fun SHE is and someone with a busted SSR tier kit with that same niche is gonna be nuts.
     
     I don't care THAT much about future units to evaluate hard as we've got 8 months or so... but Candle Knight looks like a boss killer but most bosses don't let you go "1v1 me faggot" without turning you (assuming you aren't Hoshi) into a red smear so her gimmick would have to be super good to carry her and we don't have numbers yet. I have no idea how useful the necrosis stuff is for evil cello lady but reddit doesn't like her because evil so I may roll for her.

     Honestly I think your best shot at getting old units like Blaze is to just keep saving your gold certs from the folks you DO run on and just keep putting them toward the shop buys. Not THESE shop buys though, there's no reason to by Hellagur or whoever else is on shop.

     @MashpotatoesIII the next standard banner leaked and its Blemishine, Mlynar, La Pluma which is pretty good. But right after Ines is gonna be Muleyse and Hool so rolling is tight

     @MashpotatoesIII skip should be the default option for most banners anyway

     @DrRyanSkelton I might have to skip the standard banner, I don't want to waste all of my originium.
