Honestly, I am utterly astonished by what has been written up here in the chat.
First of all, you do realise that at level 60, you can change classes, so it doesn't really matter that much?
Secondly, the point of a team, is to have ninjas that take certain functions i.e. tank, buffer, main, dps, etc.
The fact that someone said that the ninjas in the current treasures are awful for lightning class is an absolute joke. Take for example, Asuma WB. He is op in nine tails, and the amount of coins and exp you can potentially get from the event can mean a large power increase.
As well as this, it can be difficult for lightning class ninjas to clear exams. This is when you need the Pains. For example, Ningendo is very good for this purpose. As ninja exam is the primary source for your mags, it's clearly important.
In regards to the argument of Sage Naruto not being that good, it's impressive how large the misunderstanding is. He has massive aoe damage, and is a tank. That's two roles in one ninja. He is the most worth in the Sage Naruto Treasure, and can boost your team lineup by a lot, especially if you already own a buffer like Asuma WB, or Iruka. Why else do you think everyone wants him?
Every class has its strengths and weaknesses. Lightning has staggering damage when you spam mood scrolls, water has impressive healing, wind has aoe damage, earth has great attack/defense, and fire is op in status changes. There are strategies to combat every class, and honestly, if you think that any class is way better than another, it's obvious that you're doing something wrong.
