Herc, Scorp and FAM my only R5s and all are via gems. Have a half dozen R2 and currently saving my 1-2 gem and cats for two more until I see what’s going on with Necro.

Where did you get those Gems?
Probly from the r5 gems from the gwenpool event or 4th of July deals I know the 4th deals had r5 gems in the odin deals
No. So far only r2 one 7*, shuri. Have enough for few more but will wait till December. I think a new batch of 7* is coming in December. And besides, not interested in r2 any of my other 7*. Maybe Joe fix it but that's it.
Judging by the sheer amount of players in Battlegrounds still in Victory track with 10 or more R5 6 stars and 7 star R2s, there is no resource issue if you spend enough money.

8.3 exploration also has a 6* R4->R5 gem crystal.
I know, this is where I got my Tech Gem from… Was considering ranking Ghost, but now pulled Nimrod… Torn…

One gem from 8.3 explore. One may have been from 7/4 deals. But I feel like the third was also content—can’t recall.
Although I don't have anny 7*s or 6* r5s yet, my thinking is that as r5 gems become more and more common, it's much less worth it to use resources on 6*s instead of 7*s, where rank up gems are much more rare.

Just occurred to me—EOP Carinas was one of the gems.
As for which champs I R2, those would be Shuri, Black Cat, America, Cable, Silk and Gamora.

I have Bishop, Nick, Doom, Warlock and Hercules at R5. I’m hoping to get a gem for Torch to complete the class team. In theory, I won’t use T6 resources on 6 stars again. The only problem is I don’t have a 7* that I feel comfortable ranking up.
The only r5 i have from using resources is hercules (because obviously) my other 2 r5s are kitty and doom and both of those are because of gems.
I've been saving my resources for my 7*s because the game is definitely focusing on those rather than 6*s. But the difference between 6*s and 7*s is so massive and you can clearly see most 6*s will be outdated soon. A lot of people don't know this but there is a hidden value in the game called "challenger rating". 7*s have a much higher rating than 6*s. The difference between them is double the difference between a 6* and a 5*.
What challenger rating does is that if you are going up against a higher challenger rating you will crit less, block less damage, deal less damage both normally and into block etc...
This is effectively nerfing many 6* champs going against 7*s. For example, Kitty is sort of reliant on her crits to build up prowess. But if you crit less against the opponent she will build up prowess slower. Herc and CGR are reliant on crits for their massive damage but the diminished crit rate will also slow them down.
That's why I think the 4-5 gems becoming more common are a great thing by kabam because it allows you to still take up the really great 6*s without spending resources meant for the 7*s.

Not entirely sure what to do. When I'm not sure, I wait.
6* champs and ascended will hold value for a lot longer than people think.

I've seen some strange R2 choices.

Pre-coffee brain. Meant Bishop.
