Who cares about it costing less if the reward ninja isn't all that good? 8tailed cloak bee isn't bad, but idk about him being worth that price with the stuff from RNG at their current ninja frag count and drop rates.

This event would be great if it was used to re-introduce all those "new weekly release" ninja that we never see around much after that first week and other ninja that haven't gotten much space recently but are still interesting to have:

Guy gate of shock came out but he's never around much to get 4*

Edo jinchuriki could be a thing depending on what other top tier ninja frag is up

Why not bring back kakashi anbu since it's been a while and we got more anbu characters

Kushina habanero seems like it died in events so why not come out with some frags here again

Some might pay here to 3* yamato anbu and get some power with it

The list can keep going on and on...

Also the "kid kakashi for jonin minato bonds in non-merged servers" thing can be given in other events as a redeemable.

My logic wasn't that 8tailed cloak bee isn't good, just that for the price and what you get off RNG it wouldn't be such a good deal.

As for kakashi anbu being no good to you, that's your call.... but aside from not having a prompt skill his kit is nice and with new anbu ninjas like sai suit and yamato anbu idk if he's as worthless as you might be thinking, at least for arena. Oh yeah and there's shisui too now that lots have him thanks to that mess of last Sakura foodsacks event
