So did Karai win in IDW's "City at War" arc?

So IDW's version of City at War ended with issue 100. Now that we're a few issues afterward, I can't help but feel Karai, "won."

- Karai took control of the Foot Clan again and became its leader usurping Splinter just like she wanted.

- All the new Foot recruits Splinter had trained are now part of her Foot army. And the ones that didn't change sides were killed.

- Splinter is dead, just like she wanted

- Kitsune is out of the picture, at least for now, and raising the dragon didn't cause Hell on NYC.

- Oroku Saki is back to life although we have no idea yet if he and Karai have met in the 6 months timeskip

- Ocho is dead, so him turning on her has no threat to her anymore.

- Bishop is dead, and while they never interacted, I think Bishop would have surely went after the Foot and her mutants after a while.

- She sends Koya and her enforcers to mutant town to get new mutants from Old Hob for her army

- The Turtles, at least for now, are depressed and scattered over the last 6 months and don't seem to be an issue for her anymore. Even Jennika who she nearly killed, doesn't seem to want to get her revenge on her for indirectly causing her to become a mutant.

The only thing Karai didn't get were the kid orphans she wanted to raise to new Foot recruits as they escaped to Dimension X, but besides that, Karai got everything she wanted. Splinter is dead, the Turtles are at their lowest point, she took over the Foot Clan just like she wanted, she has mutant enforcers, and for the most part nobody seems to be going against her.
