sorry you got bad luck. I did as well. just stings to see all the good luck, while suffering horrible luck. Sadly, the gatcha is part of the game. Maybe odds will shift in your favor someday.
Kabam Jax - a question to you buddy: Why you cannot see iDoom that often in the spinning, as much as u can see the others??? The distribution shouldn’t be even?? You see freaking Blackbolt or kingGroot like 10x, while u see iDoom once in the same amount of time/spin… This RNG is rugged and freaking game is crashing and buggs all over. Soon you are loosing more and more spenders…I can assure you dude… The game is getting annoying and burned out with all the glitches…. Definitely I am seriously gonna drop my spending on this freaking game and soon most probably I will burry the game in the trash… Cheers
Kabam team & developers should go and review properly the RNG on the new featured champs!!! Freaking iDoom is having muuuuuch muuuuch less appearances then ANY other champ…and this is definitely not equally distributed between the other champs! Kabam is screwing us big time, especially some of the spenders… I opened 46 featured and 0 iDoom - not to mention that out of 4-5 featured I got - none of them got duped…but all the other **** champs, of course getting 4-5x in row…not to mention the connection “issues” and lagging on the game… Try to think twice you…….developers and work on stupid bugs and make this game nice again and not a fcking money grabbing tool… I’m sure that many other like myself…gonna drop this stupid game once and for all… Definitely Rigged featured! Cheers Scammam aka Kabam You favorite summoner
It's RNG. Nothing is rigged. The more narrow your preferred options, the higher the chance you might not pull it.
OP. I'm currently floating from all the salt coming out of your eyes with your tears. Me, 4 featured opened, 4 new champs. Sasquatch, White Mags, Spot and Mantis. Not first choices but will happily take them.
I'll be posting my vid of 20 openings later today or tomorrow at latest, but I'll tell you right now they weren't rigged, in fact this was easily my best features opening ever!
Sorry you had bad luck, but one person's bad rng doesn't make it rigged. I do 100% agree on the connection issues though. I had tons of lag while opening (which I'll have to edit out on opening vid as way way too much) and I got booted halfway through. Think too many of us were desperate to use our hoarded shards.
There is zero chance these crystals aren't rigged to favor the poor champs. One new champ. I saved for months.
Technically, you're absolutely correct. There are 7 featured champions out of the 24 champions in the pool, meaning that there's only a 29% chance you get a featured champion every time you open a crystal, and a larger 71% chance you get a non-featured champion.
So in a way, yes, they are "rigged" to be more likely to give you non-featured champions. You just happened to get the most likely outcome out of nearly every crystal.

Who you see on the reel has nothing to do with who you get from the crystal. Some characters never show up on the reel but are in the crystals.
This means that the chance of getting that character is muuuch less than all the others, obviously…. Stupid RNG definitely…and even more stupid developers…
Actually, it doesn’t really mean anything. The reel has never had anything directly to do with who you pull from a crystal, it’s always been just a visual thing to build hype or suspense by showing other available champs from the pool. The reel may not show all available champs, and most certainly will not show them in equal proportions. From what I remember, I believe the champ you pull is decided from the moment you place the crystal on the spinner (although I could be wrong), so at that point the reel is just for show, nothing else.
you probably haven't paid the game enough money recently. cos that's how this game works. you pay well, you get good luck.
That's not a thing. I run a FTP and a spending account and I've never noticed a difference in the quality of my pulls on either, only a difference in frequency.
14 featured crystals and only 2 featured champs (no Infamous…shocker); other 12 were all duplicates when there are others in the crystal that I don’t have.
Reminds me of when the Blade featured 5* crystal dropped. I opened 24 and didn’t got Blade. I’m sure it’s not “rigged” but it feels like it when you save for months and don’t get the champ you want.
I generally don’t get any / very few of the ‘new’ champs in my first 10-12 pulls on a featured. Maybe 1-2, sometimes not even that. At least that was the case for the last 4, but luckily I broke that trend today. Got three of them in my first 11 pulls and two other target champs as well. Given my roster, 5 new good pulls out of 11 crystals is pretty darn good.
It’s just RNG - be patient and eventually it will work out for you like it did for me today. (Spidey was from a basic 6* yesterday - all the rest came today from the featured).
I get it. But literally I'd have taken agent venom (new for me) or a duped venom. And I didn't even get that out of 20+ crystals. I got daredevils, black bolts, civil warriors, and yondus. I literally got at least 3-4 of each and I believe 5-6 civil warriors. There is just no way the odds are built like that unless those champs have a SUPER higher drop rate. In which case there should be a drop rate percentage just like with cav crystals and such. You have such a chance at this one or this one.
First of all, I think your memory is probably exaggerated and faulty. The drop distribution you're describing would be extremely rare. Second of all, if the crystal was skewed towards those champs, it would be heavily skewed towards those champs to produce that sort of result, which would mean everyone else would see similar skews. But I don't see that happening for everyone, including myself. In fact, out of twelve crystals opened so far, I have seen exactly zero Daredevils, Black Bolts, Civil Warriors, or Yondus.
I have never seen any evidence of the featured crystals being skewed towards or away from certain champions or groups of champions. Last featured I opened 69 crystals, about three times the amount you've opened so far. Not only did I see no evidence of featured champs being rare, I actually got more of them than the statistical average. All still within the reasonable bounds of probability, but still.

Strange how my alt account is f2p is consistently pulling better champs from the featured crystals than my main account that I have spent a sizable amount of money into it.

What's a reasonable number of Crystals to open to assert one particular Champ is not in them?
If you're targeting one particular champ specifically, and declared before you start opening crystals then if you want to assert a champ is not in the crystal you would need to open at least a hundred of them before your assertion carried any weight at all. At that point, the odds of failing to acquire one specific champ out of twenty four would be about 1.4%, or about one in 70. Even that is just the hint of a potential issue. I would not believe that assertion was statistically significant until someone opened about 270 crystals, at which point the odds of that happening are about one in a hundred thousand.
It is important to state this number is only valid if someone declares first that they are looking for one specific champ, then opens that many crystals and fails to find it. If they collate these numbers from other players who themselves are not looking for that champ, this would no longer be valid as this would suffer from selection bias (in other words, anyone can *find* 270 crystal openings that happen to not contain one particular champ).

How do you read "what you see in the reel has nothing to do with what you get from the crystal" and conclude this supports the conclusion that if it doesn't show up in the reel the odds to get that drop are lower?
This has nothing to do with that, therefore it does?
The "drop rates" may be the same but kabam for sure has the game programmed for God tier champs to be pulled a lot less than meme tier champs. Featured champs especially gets pulled a whole lot less no matter what kabam says. Cuz otherwise those players popping over 30 featureds should have gotten each featureds at least once instead of pulling 6 or 7 yondus, agent venom and Civil warriors.

First of all: no. There are twenty four champs in the featured. It would be extremely unlikely for someone to open thirty crystals and get at least one of all six (normally) featured champs. After opening thirty crystals, the average player would have about 17 or 18 different champs. The odds of that set including all six featured champs would be approximately 18%. In other words, only about one in six players who open thirty crystals would randomly get all six featured champs. Most would get far fewer.
That's for you. But a whole lot of other players mostly pulled mediocre champs instead of the featureds. With the last featureds I never pulled Valkyrie. Galan once. Wiccan once. Titania once. Gorr once. QS twice. All of my other pulls were non featureds.

RNG giveth, RNG taketh away.

Second of all: here are my pulls from the last featured crystal:
Show me how that crystal was biased away from the "god tier" champs and towards the "meme" champs. Because I sure don't see it.
But some ppl shouldn't be opening feats.. then they complain about the lack of iso
