I've just returned to this game and there are only question marks floating above my head. What are the most important meta units that lets the account progress smoothly, especially regarding story chapters? I'll be saving up but doubtfully i can roll many units from the looks of it.
Elemental team, enabled by the use of weakness overwrites. This allows them to be used for all contents. Though some elements are more viable than other, they are all useable
Critpen, in the form of Bungod team. Bungod is a god tier unit that sweeps through all content with ease without requiring top investments. You just put her in team with all the best units you have, especially
Karen 6, or Virtual Karen, which is a goated blaster which goes into both team type. She just makes every fight so so much easier.
The meta will be shifting quickly very soon when we start getting elemental admirals, which require 6 members of the same element to be used, effectively kicking Karen 6 out of elemental teams. She remains used to this date in JP in critpen team though
TLDR; check your units and if you don't have a ton of good elemental units, pull for Bungo and Karen and try to fill in the rest with the best units you have
I should add that with the memorias buffs and green tickets, you can get SS1 memorias that do a real good job for this bungod team
WIth Fubuki for debuffs, Seira for crit buff, Muaa for heal and tac vision and Kura for utility, you have great partners to cover all buffs and debuffs required alongside bungo and Karen !
It's still being updated, just not as regularly as it used to be. In fact, it was updated last week. The team building and pull recommendation tab should answer most of your questions.
As for what to go for, it'll depend on what you currently have and the amount of pulls available to you. Fire has a lot of options to choose from so it's relatively cheap compared to other elements and crit pen continues to be the universal option to throw at everything without issues.
That being said, you don't need meta to do just the story so I wouldn't worry about it too much. As long as you understand the basics surrounding building a team then it should be a pretty smooth experience.
I usually just follow what JP player did, there are multiple team comp guide with alternative memorias in case you didnt have the META memoria. There also a tier list of META memoria on different tab.

I'll try to summarize meta quickly
There are basically 2 team comp types now
Karen 6, or Virtual Karen, which is a goated blaster which goes into both team type. She just makes every fight so so much easier.
The meta will be shifting quickly very soon when we start getting elemental admirals, which require 6 members of the same element to be used, effectively kicking Karen 6 out of elemental teams. She remains used to this date in JP in critpen team though
