What do 7* champs cost? (Completely useless and utterly ridiculous math)
So I was sitting here licking my wounds after being power burned to extra crispy when a bizarre thought entered my head.
What would it cost to be the first person in the game to possess a 7* champ? 7* champs are supposed to become available to the players sometime later this year, but the crystal vault has the crystals right there. Sure, its there as a placeholder so we can see our shards, but if it is in the vault that should mean there's an actual crystal there, right?
Right?
Okay, so what would it cost to buy one, like right now? Well, the only way to earn 7* shards is to dup 6* champs, and while there are lots of ways to earn 6* shards/champs, really, for the numbers we are talking about none of them will really work in this century except one: buying Cav crystals. Cav crystals have a 3% chance to drop a 6* champ, which means every Cav crystal contains, on average, the equivalent of about 300 6* shards (0.03 x 10000). But we also have to consider 5* champs. The Cav crystal has a 16% chance to drop a 5* champ, and 5* dups generate 6* shards. If we assume all your 5* champs are max sig (and trust me, for anyone attempting to do this, they will be) then a 5* champ is equal to about 550 6* shards (more or less: there are rare drops that are not shards, but they are rare enough to not change the numbers much). Which means the actual amount of 6* value we get from each Cav is about 0.03 x 10000 + 0.16 x 550 = 300 + 88 = 388.
Cav crystals cost 200 units, but I'm going to assume the Thronebreaker discounted price of 175. That means to earn the equivalent of one 6* champ requires, on average, 10000/388 x 175 = 4510 units.
We're going to need *a lot* of dups. 999,999,999 / 550 = 1,818,182 6* champ dups, more or less. Which means 1818182 x 4510 = 8.2 billion units. At 3100 units per Odin this is about 2,645,162 Odins, or in USD terms $264,516,200.
Now, I would assume that there's a crystal for every crystal vault entry. I'm not sure what the crystal would actually contain, however. Would one of the whales out there drop about a quarter billion dollars on Odins, buy about 47 million Cavs, and then use the shards to buy a 7* crystal? And please record the opening so we can all see what's in it.
Hey, you will be the first, guaranteed.

Please do the math for us @DNA3000
For reference there’s about 31.5 million seconds in a year. 47 million crystals is going to take a comparable amount of seconds to open, give or take a factor of two or so.
Because it’s massive and also doesn’t exist
Kabam should offer a ‘super mythic’ title to sweeten the deal. Quarter billion isn’t looking too bad for that status.
(Okay that might be a tad obscure even for an MCOC title)
I would buy a stake in Kabam, actually rig RNG and then make incendiary posts through an alt claiming that RNG is rigged, and bask in the ensuing chaos knowing that I have duped the entire forums instead.
Would have to be like Bloop, Leviathan, Cthulhu, or some other ancient water creature.
We're talking a quarter of a million dollars here.
Here's how I see it.
Hundreds to thousands(if not tens of thousands of dollars) - Whale
hundreds of thousands of dollars to maybe at most around tens of millions - Megalodon
Hundreds of Millions of dollars and beyond- Cthulhu/Leviathan/Kraken/Bloop/Mustakrakish
It would probably be worth waiting a week.
