Well sure, if you slot her in with the rest of her batch they can cover for her weaknesses, but part of the charm of this batch is how much utility they bring. Let me get one thing straight: I love most of this batch's units and have zero problems switching between BB and SBB to maximize their potential. However, unlike the rest of the batch, Nyami penalizes you for this. Not everyone sees her as just a nuker, and a lot of people will probably want her in their squad becaus her crit rate buff and bb mod on BB can be incredibly useful for them. However, if they want to slot her in as a crit/bb buffer while simultaneously trying to get the most of ger damage output they're quickly gonna realize it's impossible due to the way her SBB works. This forces you to consider whether you want her as a buffer or a nuker more. Seeing as she's meant to hit hard, the answer for most people will likely be nuker which forces you to bring a different unit to fill the roles her BB would normally cover. Seen another way, it means you have to build the squad around Nyami's needs to make the most out of her, which can be difficult for a lot of people who don't have Avant, Charla, Farzen, etc to make the most out of their squad slots. It all goes back to that one line where I mentioned that her kit has bad synergy with itself. You can bring her as a buffer or a nuker, but you literally can't get the most out of one without sacrificing the other.
