- Event Additions: Introduction of time-limited events and new permanent content has routinely shifted optimal agent and Bangboo usage.
- Banner Rotations: Power spikes when new S-rank or SS-rank agents join the game, shaking up the “must-pull” list.
- Endgame Evolution: The meta shifts whenever new modes like “Threshold Simulation” or Shiyu Defense variants are introduced, favoring adaptable teams that exploit the freshest mechanics.
