One word-roshi....now hashirama is good dont get me wrong...i have him and his barrier is abeast with buffs but we live in a time of the game where we have barier breakers...even if u have a barier ninja first round it won't do any good...but to have barier changer as hashirama wont do good at all...now yes u can wait after u get hit by roshi then use him but by then ud probably be almost dead coming to round 3...all in all its not worth it..wait from mission boxes also if u have extra seals han-roshi team with healers is good right now maybe go for that.
