Why are the old school top champs not being added to the 5* pool?

Where is the 5* SW, Thor, wolverine, ww2, daredevil (original), doctor strange? You add all the new champs who are way OP as 5*, even gave us 5* starlord.. so what gives? Doctor strange is severely weak so he wouldn't come close to being overpowered.. just curious

    One more time, this is why lol. But let's keep this thread really constructive so we can get an answer. The other ones went downhill, so the mod didn't really answer the question.

    5* SW? man, id like to see that hahahhaha....

    these new champs have new abilities etc making them 'seem' powerful..
    imagine a 5* wolvie at even R4... how his bleed and regen would be..
    5* thor with tht armor break/stun damage... etc. those new 5*s no chance buddy

    SL only good/useful to ppl tht can keep combos and you need to dupe him anyway.

    Those aren't the only champs left out though. They still haven't released 5* Joe Fixit who isn't so great.

    X23 is far better at offense than wolverine, and she is available.

    Hyperion, Angela and medusa are way better than thor and they available

    Dr voodoo is way better than SW, and the hood and crossbones can counter her easily. And they are available.

    I'd say there are probably 5* that won't see a 6* equivalent.

    There will be 4* that won't be seen as a 5*

    The health/attack disparity plus CR seems like a fine way to adjust the potency of champs without ruining them and having to cough up compensation.

    That's kinda where I'm coming from, there are more stacked champs in the 5* crystal, especially after the ones I mentioned being nerfed.
    And the guy downplaying starlord... wake up man. Everybody in the bigger alliances or at the endgame content can at least get to a 150-200 combo and that gets crazy high on damage output depending on Sig level. The old argument was they would be OP.. You just can't say that anymore. Think about a duped 5* r4 dormamu or medusa now even- insane champs

    Well, the response is that they have no plans right now of adding Champs that haven't been available as playable before. That seems consistent with the fact that all the Champs added to the Crystal recently have previously been available in the Crystals.

    So you're saying they won't add SW to the 5* crystal cuz she isn't playable??

    If I was saying that they should put Jessica Jones in the 5* crystal, you would have a point. But that's not the case here

    The Champs that have never been available as playable 5*s are the ones they said they have no plans of adding at this time. We've seen them in content, but they've never been playable. All the Champs they're adding to the Basic are ones that have been available before.

    Hulk, Yj, SIM and so on were available in content and they got added to the pool

    Were they not available before? I can't remember. In any event, I'm just stating what was said. They have no plans of adding them at this time is the response. To be honest, certain Champs would be game changers at a 5* Level. There's no denying that. Considering the purpose of the changes around 12.0, it's not hard to understand why some would be avoided.

    Probably worth noting that they also said "at this time". It's possible that may change in the future. Hard to say.

    In a way it makes sense that Scarlet Witch, Wolverine, and Doctor Strange have not been added yet. Even with the nerfs to Strange and Witchs sig ability, these three characters can easily beat all game content especially Witch. That being said, they have added other powerful champs like X-23x, Og cap America, and Starlord to five star roster. My guess is they will be adding them once six stars are out. But an answer would be nice please? We are all just curious not demanding any action or releases. Thanks!

    Also everyone can stop downplaying Scarlet Witch. She is the best in the game. I’m not talking about as a defender plenty to counter her. But if you’re using her as attack the only thing that she’s bad against is spite node cause can’t predict her powerlock. But still, Starlord, Gwenpool, Spider Stark, X-23 all do such massive damage and they are available. And Thor is still the best cosmic, except against stun immune.

    Hahaha ok she’s still top5. But now she needs to be sig99 with a crit team. She is the best overall* champ. Doesn’t need 200 combo hit to be a monster.
