Currently, there are three classifications of Arena Crystals.
Regular, Uncollected and Thronebreaker.
Instead of introducing Paragon arena crystals when the next rank comes out, what about providing higher tier players with a discount on the existing crystals? Thronebreakers would be able to buy Uncollected and Regular crystals at a discounted price, Paragons can buy Thronebreaker crystals at a discounted price, etc.

You would need to buy a lot of TB crystals to statistically notice the difference. I've opened 720 so far, and I don't think that is enough.
I switched from UC crystals to TB crystals (basically when they came out) in May of 2021. Since then I have opened 720 TB crystals. In those crystals I have seen 105 unit drops, 63 of the small ones (375 units) and 42 of the larger ones (1125 units).
That would be 14.6% of all drops. The stated drop rate for units is 15%. This is well within the margin for error for this volume of measured drops. You'd expect the measured drop rate to be 108 +- 10 most of the time if the drop rate was actually 15%, and 105 is well within the 98 to 118 expected range.
Has the rate changed over time? Well:
If it has, not by enough to be visible in the data.
Here's another look at the data: 720 TB crystals over two and a quarter years, with unit drops highlighted:
If you actually saw a drop rate of 5%, that sounds highly unusual but maybe not impossible. I've had batches of twenty with only one unit drop, and I had a stretch of 60 crystals with only four drops. But I've never had anything close to a stretch of a hundred crystals with only five drops. Across 720 TB crystals and 2200 UC crystals the worst stretch of a hundred crystals I can find is I think nine.
