Power doesnt matter in Zenith. And both sides start with the same ninjas but people who recharge have it a bit easier. And im talking about Ninja assists. As a F2P I only had Gaara maxed to level 8. And i had to max Ten Ten so i can at least have something to use for ninjas that are not wind and buffed by Gaara.

People who recharge have access to a lot more cultivation pills then people who are f2p. So they have a better choice when they have to make a team. 20% nin/tai and 30 res/def can give you an easy win if your opponent is using lower lvl assist ninja.

But this game is full of toxic people and there is no point arguing with them :)
