Bugged/Incorrect Gacha rates?

Not even rate up, just 3 star. 99.2% of seeing greater than 1. Please investigate.

Yyeehawwlol

Fun game but constant updates

I have enjoyed the game but am tired of having to download 300+MB updates every other day. I get that’s not a lot but the place I’m at that I usually play this game at has very slow Internet so it takes forever to download the 300MB. To make matters worse there’s usually another download that varies in size right after that. Most recently it was around 60ishMB but other times I’ve had it at over 300MB. I’ll just stick to playing this on PC at home.
