Progression trackers
in free spins a tracker above each reel sets the lowest Densho type that can land there, and Upgrade symbols raise the level.

triggered by 4 scatters, 10 spins with all trackers starting at level 2.

for 50x bet each spin guarantees at least 2 Densho symbols.

Each reel has a tracker that restricts which Densho tier can appear there. Upgrade symbols push that tracker up, enabling Rare or Legendary Densho symbols on reels that would otherwise only produce Common ones.
