· The conclusion is that the current Street Fighter collaboration cards are not worth pulling for.
· As of now, all collaboration cards are unnecessary, and it's mentioned that they are likely the collaboration cards with the fewest users who have achieved 4-breakthrough (4 limit breaks) in #Compass.
· Only the '52' card is a very powerful UR card, so if you're aiming for a specific playstyle (Gondorud) or considering future buffs, you might consider acquiring it.
· The other 3 cards currently have no practical use, so skipping them is recommended.

· This collaboration is unique in that there are no collaboration costumes.
· Therefore, if you pull the collaboration gacha, you are guaranteed to acquire a collaboration character.
· The implemented characters are Ryu and Chun-Li, and if you don't have both characters yet, it's strongly recommended to pull at least once to secure new characters.
· Both characters are powerful enough to be used in the current meta, and Ryu, in particular, is highly recommended due to his versatility.

· Role: Sprinter
· Basic Performance: As an early sprinter, she has no special effects on her dash or HA (Hero Action). Her normal attack speed is very slow, so she primarily relies on card attacks.
· Ability: Increases multi-hit card power and reduces cooldown by 3 seconds, specializing her in combat using multi-hit cards.
· HS (Hero Skill): Unleashes a multi-hit attack with piercing lethal damage to enemies within a frontal range. It activates quickly, making it easy to counter opponent's attack cards, and allows for exploiting openings after HS. It can be combined with Ghost cards to defeat even Tank characters, and its rotation speed is good enough to be used twice per match.
· Pros: As a multi-hit sprinter, compared to Asuna, she can utilize area attack cards, and the Ghost-Student Council combo allows for a definite one-shot.
· Cons: Her movement speed is slow for a sprinter. As a multi-hit sprinter, she has high reliance on collaboration cards, and her attack stat is low at 1.25, making it difficult to defeat enemies even with piercing multi-hit attacks. Normal attacks and DA (Dash Attack) are useless, leaving her with insufficient damage sources outside of multi-hit attacks.
· Usage: Her ability is powerful, making her likely to be re-evaluated whenever new multi-hit cards are released, and she is frequently used in last-minute comeback (Makkuri) compositions.

· Role: All-rounder Attacker
· Stats: Generally high, with particularly high HP for an attacker.
· Normal Attack: Excellent, delivering abdominal attacks to everyone.
· HA (Hero Action): Emits a 'Kiai' to increase movement speed and slightly boost attack card power until the next attack card is used. The buffs from his ability and HA stack, resulting in significant power. When using HA, he has the fastest movement speed among attackers, and during HA, he gains Super Armor, preventing him from being knocked down by opponent's attack cards.
· HS (Hero Skill): Fires a 'Vacuum Hadoken' with lethal damage forward. It doesn't pierce but has long range and quick activation, allowing it to hit area attack cards or be chained from a distance. Skilled Ryu players use HS at unpredictable timings to pressure opponents. HS accumulation speed is very fast, allowing it to be used 3 times per match, and the HS is a projectile with an attack hitbox, not a beam, requiring precise timing.
· Recommended Attack Cards: He can effectively handle all types of attack cards, including melee, ranged, area, and multi-hit.

Category	Details
Area	Activation is not very fast, and strong knockback makes follow-up attacks difficult, leading to low adoption rates.
Melee	'Kuruka' and other standard cards.
Ranged	'Muaba' and similar cards are occasionally seen. A hit with Muaba can lead to a guaranteed kill with HS, and if there's healing support from allies, you might consider replacing a healing card with it.
Multi-hit	'Student Council', 'Makitari' recommended. Since ability and HA buffs do not apply to piercing cards, it's better to prioritize normal attack cards.

· Basic Build: 'Kanoune' (Damage Cut/Heal) is essential, and the remaining slots can be filled with your preferred type of attack cards. For versatility, 'Furuku' or 'Student Council' are recommended.
· Gameplay: It's crucial to maintain the front line by utilizing his high HP and equipping Damage Cut/Heal cards. If you can land HS 100% of the time, he becomes a very threatening presence even in regular matches, so he's highly recommended for players who want to excel in standard play.

· Ryu is a highly recommended character; owning him will always be beneficial.
· Mastering Ryu's HS timing will also help you learn the HS timings of most other characters, greatly improving your skill.
· No matter how tough the opponent, Ryu's HS can always create an opening, so we highly encourage you to try using it.
· There's no particular need to acquire collaboration cards, so it's more efficient to quickly get the characters and withdraw.
