If you are talking about any future ninjas, then no because of what happen to Ay. People were worried about Ay having to be 4* to skill break because of what happen in Germany rather than 3* like in China. Due to this, players cannot predict the future skillbreaks for ninjas at 3* will come and it is under the discretion of Oasis. A forum post won't change the mood as there is no good reason besides restricting who has access.

Like I said, the only reason I could think of doing so is restricting the amount of people who can access those skillbooks/skillbreaks, If this is the case, I can understand why they are trying to avoid a post about it because of the expected backlash. Although, they have been transparent on some things in the past but as a whole time , they haven't been transparent on the level that is respected.

When I talked about restricting access, it was targeting meta changing skill breakthroughs. Between hashiarama and tobiarama at 3* and Ay at 4* is that SB Ay is meta and those two hokages aren't and their major usefulness is in 3v3 matches. If the change in stars was with two meta ninja, then inconsistency would apply. Another reason I can think of just so happened to be mentioned by others, which is money-drived. We won't know when they will add skill trials for him so at the moments whales will try to get frags in ingots/spending rebate events.

Of course its a cash grab but it also does provide balancing. I don't really see it as unhealthy besides limiting the chances of the amount of people getting those skill breaks. Just like how shisui was introduced on this server, the large number of people getting him in the first few events he appeared in changed the gaming environment. People were angry that shisui was easily obtained and he was heavily present in arena right after.

Let's say, currently the number of people that have Ay is 200. Of those 200, only 5 can currently SB. Most likely they will see Ay meta as an option to use as a team rather th*e them as the go-to team as they have several other teams to use due to how much they have already invested. Those 5 most likely can beat the majority of the players without using SB Ay so it doesn't impact the gaming environment. The only thing we can do is just wait when they decide it is fine to introduce the skill experiments for Ay and when they add the skill experiment vials in events/group shop, as that's how you are most likely going to upgrade him.

Of course it isn't fair but which sounds better 200 people that have SB Ay that are stronger than you or 5? I rather take the 5.
