T4A Depreciation - halved value in 5 months?

I thought it would be interesting to compare the act 8.4 completion offer against the 9.1 completion offer.

8.4;



9.1 (courtesy of our man BG's stream replay);



For clarity, 8.4 release was April 10th this year, and 9.1 as we know was released September 11th. These two offers are very close in unit value but I think that it has to be considered that you aren't necessarily going to be a Valiant player when you hit the 8.4 offer, whereas completion of 9.1 could easily get you there. The 9.1 offer also holds more than twice the value considering it accounts for the T6CC, T6B, T3A and T5CC needed for the rankups too.

Any considerations or concerns? Personally I think it's a pretty steep decline and makes me less likely to spend, despite the fact I think we're about to see another abundance of R3's come cyber weekend and eventually the Banquet event.

    About 6 months... Or spacing between 4th and CM deals the values drop insanely quick

    I suppose it goes to show your money's only good in the moment/short term in this game, the only argument I could make otherwise is for limited availability champs like Banquet exclusives or crystals that allowed you to get someone like Starky more recently.

    I thought it was common knowledge top tier catalysts usually drop in price by roughly half every 6 months.

    I've never followed the rank up resources this closely tbf, I had a short break of 5/6... Years 🤔😂 I just find it very interesting.

    This is partially why I'm asking the crowd though, I'd really like to hear from some bigger spenders but we'll see.
