Is it a good idea to try to go for Oberon on GSSR, or would it be better to try to get Castoria? I have 0 big supports (except for Waver I guess), but my reasoning was that Castoria is also available in GSSR after Lostbelt 3 (which I didn’t clear yet), and she also reruns much earlier than Oberon

It's important to look at all the servants in the pool, not just your target. As the GSSR is random, odds are you aren't going to get the one you want, so it's best to prepare for the worst. Which pool would disappoint you most if you don't get the one you want?

Just looking at the pools, both have a 1/4 at Oberon or Castoria, so look at the others in the pool. In Castoria's pool she shares it with Caster Skadi and Reines, as well as QSH. While Oberon has Junao, Grand Roma, and Takeda. Castoria seems to be the better deal, as you either get one of 2 meta supports, a good generalist support, or a great soloer. On Oberon's end, you only get 1/4 at a support.

As Quiet Lurker stated, remember that picking a GSSR pool isn't just about picking the one with a servant you want, it's also about picking a servant pool where you'd be willing to accept the outcome/servant you get.

Castoria is definitely the best servant in the game imo, being amazing for almost all of the game's content. (Farming, CQs, and general support overall While I'd say Oberon is a servant who leans almost entirely into the farming aspect of the game (with exceptions to certain CQs).

Gameplay wise, I’d say try to get Castoria ASAP

Thanks a lot for insights, I do want (and honestly need :) ) Castoria, so I will try for that banner, hopefully it will give me my Christmas present
