That seems a bit inacurate imo. She's not the best aoe lancer, but she is one of the best among 4* (and 5* as well). I don't think she beats Karna, but that's debatable. It's just that her kit is easy to use and so complete. It's rare enough that a lancer has star absorp skill, but Lalter goes even further since she can supply her own stars and boost her crit damage. No slouch in percentage either.

It only lasts for one turn, but if you combine Blessings from the end of the world and mana burst, she can deal a stupid amount of damage. Her NP also has an NP seal attached to it. Combine all of this with 4* deployment cost, decent NP gain, and easy material requirements. You can really see why people like her.
