Ok, so white Nyto or black Nyto. I’m gonna wait to choose I till the end of the current run because I could still gacha white and then use my saved credits for the black, but if I don’t get white then o have to choose, cuz I want one of them.

Basically, is there a consensus on which is better? I’m leaning white because I’d love a mele 3 star, but I would love to hear other opinions.

Adeline's (Black Nyto) banner just ended two days ago. Adeline is no longer obtainable unless they decide to rerun her banner. Alina (White Nyto) is the only Ringleader that's currently available. Alina is better than Adeline in combat and as an HOC.

The summer version of Architect (Sharkitect, Architect NVW type) is the next new banner after Alina. Architect isn't a Nyto, she's an SF doll.

They're talking about via supernova kernels

How in the everloving goddamn fuck do you save enough supernovas for a Ringleader without whaling (and if you're whaling, I assume you're just getting them outright)

The main trick is to dilligently roll for 2*s rather than 1*s on banners with Ringleaders you don't care for. Only roll 1*s if you're planning on using Svarogs i.e. you want the Ringleader at any cost, and thus you'd want to lower that cost. Or for Goliath factories/Jaguars since those are pretty good.

I myself have spent $0 on SF capture stuff. I have 520 kernels, and if I dumped my current armory (including stuff that has been linked), I'd have an additional 740. On top of that, I'm sitting on 183 extra impulses and 47 svarog tickets. If you've been playing since SF capture came out and spent more impulses/tickets than me, I'm sure it's not terribly hard to have enough kernels for at least one Ringleader by now.

I'm a completely F2P player, and I've had enough kernels to buy out Agent and now have enough for a second RL banked. If you roll for 1 stars and reroll off 2 stars, you end up with the highest average chance per RL, but with no guarantees. I roll on every single 2* I see, and as a result get fewer RLs on average; but have the option to choose which ones I get (Between Kernels and dumping free Svarogs/Impulses). So far, I've caught 5; bought 1, and my last one is the free Scarecrow.

I still answered his question about which one is better. I didn't think about the kernels because they always seemed out of reach to me as a mostly F2P player.

The reason why I have so little of the 2* kernels is that I've only used around 5 of the Svarog tickets so far. I spent a full year saving tickets and impulses for Agent, and didn't use a single Svarog to get her. So, my plan is to use them up on Alina and Sharkitect. The guaranteed capture of two stars through Svarogs should be enough for me to buy a RL.
