Gotta let it go. Tech is a tough class to fill, it had to be done. Tech is well stocked for a while and science will get its time soon. Definitely for the Antman event imo.
Here's what should happen. Why can't we have hybrids? Why can't characters be both tech and science? They would have 2 class advantages and 2 disadvantages. They should then require both classes of cats to rank them as well. I think that there are some cool things that could be done with this, let alone, updating previous champs to be more consistent with their actual backstory, i.e. Scarlet witch should be both mystic and mutant. Maybe one class could be "dominant" eliminating an advantage or disadvantage, but still allowing different class iso to be used to level up. There is definitely some thought that would need to be put into this but it could add a new aspect to the game.
speaking purely from prestige standpoint. players in a top alliance with skill and science gems are at a disadvantage. players with tech, mutant, cosmic, and mystic gems are at an advantage.
i know hoarding or burning gems and stones is all elective, but at the top (and if you are not there please don't generalize, you know who you are) there is a definite strategy of saving for new featured champions to boost prestige.
there is also an element of luck, but by ignoring these classes for so long, you have taken away from these players, the chance at even trying their luck.
ignoring character design, comic book origin story, just purely looking at class balance, it is near criminal how long it has taken to revisit these classes.

When wasp comes out she'll be science
the release date for that movie is June 2018, thats 10 months away.
I am one of the many that were disappointed by Kabam's decision to classify BOTH gg and doc as tech- beyond the obvious science ties that each champ has- why in the world would we need two MORE tech champions? We've seen several added in the last two months alone and now yet another month dominated by this class. Kabam please realize that these "waves" of champions pertaining to one class have "conveniently" skipped over science and skill for far too long. The real disadvantage is that players with awakening gems corresponding to those classes have had no opportunity to use the rarest items in the game. A five star awakening gem is the most highly valued, sought after item available! That is why the gg and doc situation was upsetting; it seemed that players with sci gems were finally getting a moment to take advantage of their gems!.Nope. To put this in context, its been almost a year since the last sci champ was released (quake). A year. As most know, Gwenpool was the last skill champ released and that clock has been ticking as well. So those players holding sci and skill awakening gems have been denied a good champ to use them on for far too long. Meanwhile, players possessing mutant, cosmic, tech, and mystic gems have had ample opportunities to use them on great featured champs. This is a real problem that has gone unaddressed. We need some answers as to why science and skill have been neglected.
I too am in the same boat, sitting on 5 Science gems had to let one expire. GG should've been a science champ it's sad they decided to make him Tech. Same with Doc Oc. I thought finally 2 new science champs but nope now I can't chance opening any awakening gems.
