More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:

If you’ve read them a million times before, you may consider reading them again before deciding on your budget for summoning. A little time spent deciding on how much money you want to risk on summoning goes a long way to avoiding disappointment, frustration, and regret later. :slight_smile:

Feels like they mixed Luna and Pophit and got Mena. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll be really happy to have Mena, but we all know the odds!

What are the odds?

The odds are, well, against me!

I wanted Penny years ago now, I bet I get that one instead of one of the new shiny ones, it would be really unlucky for me at those odds.

But better than a S1

That’s what I was thinking. I’m a very happy Luna-phile, with her at LB2 and +25. I just pulled Mena and intend to fast track.

Got tonics. I’m split between Toon Elkanen and Mena. Thoughts?

I love the mana cut but all those Nautica tanks out there…and I think Toon stats are still very sturdy. Hmm.

I have toon Elkanen and just got Mena. I love Elkanen but I would choose Mena over him slightly

really ?? very strange ,even is good for opposit team but very strange even them on flanks(lunq and mena) will be crazy in defence as they are better are they are different colours

Just in case one thought Luna was not enough.

I feel they are still great to pair together, between both of them you can have your whole team knocking down people’s mana, instead of just the three
