2* Signature Stones and Champion Availablity

in Suggestions and Requests
Back in August, I started a discussion about 2* champions being generally unavailable in the game and I made some suggestions:
  1. Give summoners at least one of the newly released champions as a two-star each month (They’ve actually done this in two of the past three months, and the other could be available through Marvel Insider.)
  2. Collector Crystals should contain ONLY champions who are not regularly available.
  3. Expand or completely change which two-star champions are in the Premium Hero Crystal.
  4. Increase the drop rate of 2-star awakening gems in the Solo Crystal
  5. Make two-star signature stones more available and/or worth more sig levels
  6. No more new two-star champions
What has Kabam done?

Notably, they have made a collector crystal available every month that contains only 2* versions of the champions in the monthly Cavalier crystal. However, they have also
  1. Stopped giving out one of the new 2* champions each month to everyone; even to those with Marvel Insider
  2. Collector crystals still contain champions from the PHC. 9 this month and 8 last month.
  3. No change to PHC
  4. Unchanged
  5. 2* signature stones are NO LONGER AVAILABLE in the 7-hour class-specific solo objectives. You can only get a +2 sig stone from the Solo Crystal (22.83%). [I'm not sure if that's a change, but they're still severely overpriced.]
  6. Still making new 2* Heroes
Further, the collector crystals are severely overpriced at 100 units. The PHC also costs 100 units (60 to Uncollected), but it at least gives you a 23% chance to get a 3* or 4* Hero. So the collector crystals are basically character-specific sig stones for 100 units. Last month, when I only needed 1 of the 25 heroes, I didn't buy any. If they were 20 units, I would have bought more (and then would have really pissed when the Banquet crystals came out). I'd buy 100s of this month's crystals at that price. Needing just 4, I'll at most buy one for each of the Cavalier crystals I open.

People will say that 2* heroes are useless in this game, and they're right. That's why these changes should be a no-brainer for Kabam. It's a pro-player move that basically costs them nothing.
