So they want us to purposely have a card on the team who will get no boost, will likely have no link skills with the rest of the cards and even with a possible damage reduction (which will be based on whether or not he guards if 16's other cards are a good way to guess his passive's theme) will still take buttloads of damage.

Literally NO OTHER CARD THAT I KNOW OF has such a restrictive requirement in order to activate a passive or skill or anything else. Nothing requires that you purposely weaken your team in order to get something. (In regards to stage restrictions, You only have to look at SBR bc only actual restrictions present prevent you from using the new Gohan in the first place. along those lines, many of the specialized stages (SBR) won't let you pair gohan with an android, meaning you have to forgo ever using his transformation or hope maybe 1 stage has an android on it)

And there is literally only 1 android card that is Super Agl that can even get the stat boosts on gohan's team, f2p USS android 18 (who will 99% likely have no links with the new Lr).

Also looking at the current A16s in the game and comparing them to the SS2 gohan youths in the game, the odds are the new A16 will not have any links w/ Lr gohan, save fierce battle (unless they pull the bs of requiring medals from the cell game story event once it is expanded)

TL;DR - For a company constantly introducing power creep and emphasizing synergies using categories and link skills, forcing you to use a card who will not get any boosts and will likely just cause your team to take ridiculous damage while only having a purpose of transforming one other card is really really stupid.
