the online alone makes it worth it, but it is hard to grind for cards so unless you spend ur cards will look sameish with everyone else

I think it adds for more versatility, they're not locked into their certain rows and some units have different effects depending if they're melee or ranged. Also, their are stuff like charges and zeal that can do some really cool techniques
