As it stands rn NOBODY uses takedowns for anything because with max potential stats, all you will get is an A stat
High-level players gamble on shiny and transfer
Low-level gamble on normal and transfer
IT NEEDS A CHANGE
Takedown needs a weekly shop where you can exchange takedowns for gems, gold, or Guaranteed traits. ( MARKSMAN TRAIT, BLITZ TRAIT. SOLAR TRAIT, ETHEREAL TRAIT, DEADEYE TRAIT, MONARCH TRAIT). This way, F2P players can create teams of ppl they want and can actually roll on their SUPPORT units without fear of getting MONARCH on them( got ethereal Hakura Rin btw)
PROS
This is a reward for high-level F2P players who don't have monarch on units they want it on, despite their high level, e.g., me(182 and 1 monarch)
Can create a more inclusive community where high-level players can find an incentive to help low-level players get gems or gold in a direct manner
Can lead to more diverse teams and more free thinking because high levels can create teams since they can get the traits anytime for a unit
CONS
Monarch inflation_ This can easily be stopped by making mythic guarantee traits ONLY available for players above Gilg max level
