An energy bar is needed to do missions or enter raids. I believe there may be more, but it's been a while since I last played (glad for that too).
You may fight against other players registered teams in the arena. You fight the cpu controlling them and there are "seasons" that regularly roll over. Rewards are given out after a season based on how well you did and offer premium currency and standard currency in large amounts if you can do really well.
Monthly events are by far the best way of getting in game currency without spending money. You can get some from the single player missions, but it's a finite amount. To continue playing for free, you must be constantly active. In addition, certain popular character variants will pop up in loot boxes for limited times.
Offers bundles on premium currency and on lootboxes to get you to spend more. For example, adding a single guaranteed rarity character if you buy 10 lootboxes at once instead of just one.
Game will frequently give out loot box tokens or premium currency rather than a specific thing.
While you can just play through the story, that's not the main attraction of the game and if you're going to be any good, you'll have to spend money. While you can spend inordinate amounts of time to get better, paying money is the quick and easy way to avoid continued frustration.
The game will occasionally give you small rewards of premium currency for things like beating missions under certain perimeters, collecting x number of characters, etc.
So you got an S rank character, congrats. However, you'll need to get more of that same character in order to power them up or you'll find them lagging behind pretty quickly.
While you can obtain some characters from playing through the story, in order to obtain more useful characters you will need to gamble on loot boxes. In addition, there are multiple tiers of loot box and the odds (while posted) are extremely low.
Can spend premium currency to recover your energy for missions and a separate energy bar to fight in the arena. May be more, but can't remember since I haven't played in a while.
