So, it looks like if patterns are followed, the next group of champs being added to the Basic 5* Crystal in January are Yondu, Punisher 2099, Carnage, Spidey-Stark, Vulture, and Green Goblin. This would occur after maintenance on Jan 2nd. Then, in Feb it would be Doc Oc, Kingpin, Medusa, Mephisto, Morningstar, and Blade added (after maintenance) on Feb 6th. But after that, it gets a little interesting.
If Kabam follows suite, then the March crystal would add Thor-Rags, Hela, Taskmaster, MODOK, and 2 more unreleased champs (data-mining shows who, but I'll leave it out, just in case) on March 6th. However, this would mark this first time that champs would be added to the Basic 5* Crystal *BEFORE* being made available in the PHC, 3* and 4* crystals. Thor Rags would be fine, but Hela is scheduled to be permanently added to the PHC/3*/4* crystals on March 13th. Taskmaster on March 27th, MODOK on April 10th, and the remaining two champs on April 24th and May 8th. All 6 would be in the Basic 5* crystal on March 6th *IF* Kabam doesn't modify their pattern.
So my guess is that Feb is the last month we will see the "6 champs added on the first Tuesday" thing happen. It looks like starting with Thor-Rags, they will release to the 5* crystal on the same date they release to the PHC/3*/4* crystals.
Unless they decide to start adding OTHER champs to the 5* crystal on the first Tuesday of the new month. There's a good number that were left behind, afterall (a lot of old-school champs like Blockbolt, Ms. Marvel, War Machine, DPX, and the former-God-tier like Thor, BW, SW, etc.). But I guess we'll see what Kabam does when that bridge gets closer to being crossed.
