Abyss Completion - My experience and rewards

I'm a f2p, so t5cc has been very slowly accumulating. I actually formed a mystic t5cc upon exploration of Cav EQ with the 10%. While I was happy to form a t5 and become TB, i didn't have a good mystic champ to use it on (mephisto, morningstar, jane foster, ebony maw, juggs, dr strange). While there is debate on some of those, the truth is i didn't have a quality champ to use it on. So therefore I was stuck with a difficult decision... R3 one of them just for the TB title, wait for another worthy 6*, or... Tackle the Abyss.
I had the champs, the units for backup, 600+ free crystals, and a good stash of items already. I still had the recent Act 6 compensation as well. So I started farming pots in ROL and prepping.
As for the Abyss itself, I went in with 5*'s:
Aegon sig 200
Torch sig 20
Sym Supreme sig 200
Nick Fury sig 20
Heimdall
I got solos on Medusa (barely as I went over the max hit count), Mephisto and Cull. Problem childs were: IMIW, Mordo, Joe fixit, and Cyclops (6+ revives each). Then there was the Collector itself. Just fought through the pain with 10 or so revives in the end I think (I stopped counting honestly). Overall, it took me 3 days playing off and on.
Now for the rewards.
For some background, I could use t5cc for tech (Ghost), cosmic (Corvus), mutant (Domino), and skill (Killmonger). As for science, I had duped Gulk, duped Sentry, Luke Cage, or Yellowjacket - not great, but not horrible. And then mystic would be bad as I already have one that I couldn't use on.
AG - Science (will hold and consider options)
T5cc - Mystic (yup... Should have known)
6* - duped Jane Foster and a Elektra
So... Yeah... Quite bummed about that opening...
So there I was again, back to considering a silly TB rankup... Since I duped Jane Foster and seen KarateMike talk about her all the time, I thought she would be the one most worth it. Help out with the 6.4 Collector, is duped, and be a unique rankup.
Well, as I looked at my stash, I was 1000 off from another 6*. So I went into the new variant and completed the 1st chapter. I threw the crystal on the spinner and... Was a bit surprised... Rolled over a Green Goblin...
It was a bit of a roller coaster of emotions. From a "this Collector fight sucks" to "I'm so glad that's over... I hope it was worth it" to "I'm quitting this stupid game" to "O GOD YES!!!! I'M THRONEBREAKER!!!"
