Should you pull for Sparkle

As with any other gacha game, support units are definitely the hardest to power creep and seeing just how loaded Sparkle’s kit is, she is sure to be one that will stay in the meta for a while and is bound to fit a lot of teams thanks to her boosts in both Crit Rate and Crit DMG, as well as her ability to supply a ton of Skill Points, which are one of the most important parts of Honkai: Star Rail.

As such if you do have the Stellar Jade we highly advise that you continue to save it up so that you may get a copy of Sparkle, as we believe that she will surely stay in the meta for a long time to come.
