7 stars and Rank 5 resources.

Almost a year ago, the first rank 4 came to the game, only the high spenders had access to them, but now, with act 7 rewards and the unit deal, people have multiple rank 4s. Some top players even have 5 rank 4s.
I believe it is the time for rank 5 resources. What does the community think about this? Is it too early or too late...?
Should we get 7 stars before?

And you didn't quit when they introduced 5* champs and you had spent all that time developing 4* champs?
That being said, *if* the game goes to 7* champions, I imagine it will be at a point where players have full battlegrounds deck’s worth of r4 champions. So uhhhhh it’s gonna be a bit.
And if you can’t apply the same logic of “well you didn’t quit when they introduced X* champions”, like you did for 7*s just then, then why not? I think there is definitely some point in the game that people would get tired of repeating the same grind for the next star level. Who knows, maybe 7*s isn’t the point where that happens. But then again, maybe it is.
Also, it sounds like a lot of people are against 7-stars. Not sure Kabam will go that route. These equip-able items (or whatever) that’s supposed to come with the Battlegrounds rewards could possibly replace rarity progression. Or maybe 6-stars will go to Rank 6. Tough to say.
By the current standard, we would probably see 7*s shards in about a years time that we could start collecting, judging from how soon 6*s came after 5* rank 4s. I think that may be too soon for some players.
I think instead of that, kabam will go for something along the lines of relics as the best ceiling, enabling us to push the vertical progression in that way - in place of 7*s. Then maybe in the future, after a couple of years of relics, that’s when 7*s come, so we can have a break from the normal grind for the next level of stars.
Of course, this assumes relics is a success from the upcoming battlegrounds (I suspect that’s what the next beta will be for, testing relics. Doesn’t make much sense to have another beta so soon, and for a month I think it is, unless they are testing something big)
We indeed need to see what the plan for relics is to know what that might look like progression wise. If relics are linked to strikers as was mentioned in the past I would see that as more of a horizontal progression than a vertical one.
Only time will tell what that looks like though.
I just feel that if this time next year, 7*s are announced, I’m going to feel really unmotivated to go for them. I will only just feel like I’m settling into my 6* rank 4 roster, maybe having 8-10 or so by then at a rough guess. I won’t want to feel like 7*s are the new goal.
Right now, I personally don’t want to see 7*s for at least 2 years, and even then I’d feel that was too soon. I’d like 6* rank 4s to be the next goal for the next year, and then after that 6* rank 5s and relics for another year and then after that, in 2.5+ years, we get a first tease of 7*s as the next goal. That’s a rough timeline, and not absolute, but I wouldn’t want to feel more rushed than that
While getting 20 more sigs on some champs is nice... part of the allure of the game is to open something new.
Unless champs come out faster (which I don't recommend given all the fun we have about champs being too bad, too good, and too buggy)... the other option is... 7 star champs.
It is going to happen... but I tend to think we are probably talking something like December this year at the earliest (imagine if gifting event had a 1% chance for 250 7* shards). You'd still need to open an average of 4,000 of them at a cost of $40,000 (in units) to get a 7 star... and then really start rolling it out so people start really getting them around summer 2023.
Also remember a 7 star rank 1 will probably be no better than a 6 star rank 3-4, and the odds of duping one... will be ridiculous for a very long time.

I explored SoP
I didnt do Gauntlet
I explored act 7
I didnt get the offer.
I have 1 R4 and 1.5 T6b and 0.75 t3a
At that point; I'd welcome MCOC 2 instead of 7*
If the vertical progression treadmill is not for you, and that is perfectly fine it isn't for everyone, then when it does eventually happen I hope you find a game that does meet your needs.
