Props to the editors for quick work on this. And man, what an astonishing amount of news. BABLYONIA! Christmas 2015 re-run and 2016 overlap just like Halloween events! Tons of goodies!

Not to mention, finally a gatcha where if I pull a bunch of CEs, I'll probably be happy with them. Except Shinji, nobody likes Shinji. Looking at the rate-up distribution across classes:

Sabers: 4

Lancers: 5

Archers: 2

Riders: 2

Casters: 2

Berserker: 1

Ruler: 1

When adjusting for rarities, all 4 of the 3* servants are split equally between their classes.Of the 4*s, 3/7 of them are Lancers, so I admit I'm a bit wary of potential redundancy given I pulled Extra Vlad, although getting him a better NP wouldn't be unwelcome at all. The remainder of the 4*s are 2 Sabers, 1 Archer, and 1 Caster.

Of the 5*s, 2 Sabers are the only inequality, all others are 1-ofs.

Remember that the rates are 12% for a 4* CE, 3% for a 4* Servant, 4% for a 5* CE, and 1% for a 5* Servant! It would take knowledge of the complete gatcha pool to work out odds of anything individually, so no can do there. Nor do I know how the rate-up math actually applies, but as a reminder: '''Rate-ups do not increase your chance of rolling a particular rarity. '''They just apply weighted odds to the probability of specific pulls within a rarity.

As usual, the best approach is to roll if the general chance of getting something you'll enjoy is applicable, and I'd definitely say that applies. Even disregarding the servants entirely, the CEs are some of the best in the game, and I'll be entirely happy if I don't pull a single servant and just get CEs through this.
