April 17th Patch Notes [Ken, Haste and Guilty Gear Collab]

Finally, SmileGate has announced the collab and it is Guilty Gear! We will be having Sol, Baiken, I-No and Dizzy as the collab characters. Looks like there will be a month long side story for the collab characters.

I am not entirely sure if its 2 or 3 limited units, but if you have 1210 bookmarks or 24,000 sky stones, you are guaranteed to get at least 2 limited units. In previous banners, Diene and Luna has been really good. The new ones should be as well. So they are better bets than Haste and Ken (as much as they are good). It is recommended to save your bookmarks for the collab heroes.
