Should you Pull for Untainted Heart - Lingguang

With Lingguang and Jinwu running at the same time it might be hard to choose who of them to get. If you have enough currency then by all means go for both, as they are both great units to have, however, if you do not the question still remains.

Generally, gacha games tend to favor Support characters more, and they are mainly the ones that transcend metas and are viable for a long-time, meaning that they are a better investment for your accounts. And Lingguang being the newest support character she is sure to remain in the meta for a while, as such pulling and investing for her is not that bad of a deal!
