    The RNG is a factor of the game and one that is quite important to Kabam’s business model I’d imagine.

    Although I’d love to have an increased chance to have the best champs, it would make having them a bit meaningless.

    Like two titans I’ve duped Nova, it made it much the feeling much better when I pulled this saucepot from my last titan.


    Would you agree to the selector being on general crystals with a wider pool of champions. So i.e. the basic 7* crystal having a selector but not the titan since the pool is very small and chances of getting the desired champions are greater?
    Not a nexus, but maybe old champs like blade etc. I think the problem isn’t with the chances, it’s with the decisions for who is in the pool.
    Not Nexus, that's too much. Just a normal selector that gives you 3 options. The normal 7* crystal already has 150 champions in the pool, that's a 1 in 150 chance. Think having an option of 3 of the 150 is fair enough.
    ... That's exactly what a nexus crystal is...
    I just noticed this LOL
    Nexus > Normal selector that gives you 3 options 😳

    Adding this would only be beneficial to the player base yet most vote no. Only way you vote no to something that is beneficial to players is if you're working for Kabam.

    lol be reasonable. a 3x nexus selector for all 7* basics would cripple their business model and we'd have no game anymore.

    There are 2 Nexus crystals. Abyss Nexus gives you 10 options a normal Nexus is 3... did you notice that? LOL

    And lottery tickets should automatically give us 3 of the random numbers so we only have to guess 2. Would make it much more fair because we're spending money on those tickets.

    Of course it would be beneficial, so would them giving out 5000 units for free every day, it would also likely tank the game

    comparing crystals being selectors to 5000 units a day is dumb... try again.

    You're comparing winning millions of dollars to a crystal in a mobile video game? Are you dumb? Try use that brain a little more and give a more equal comparison that actually makes sense

    Gambling is gambling. No matter what, you risk throwing something away in hopes of a good return. The idea that champion crystals should become selectors, completely removing the RNG factor from the game, is the only thing dumb here.

    You think that would cripple their business model? is it that fragile? Do those champions automatically become R3, no, so there is still ways for them to charge you for rank up materials. Would you not be more inclined to spend on rank up materials if you knew it was going to a good champion? if your 7* roster is terrible what is the incentive to spend on ranking them?

    Are you aware how RNG works? the 3 champions from all selector crystals are still RANDOMLY selected... sure you're not the dumb one?

    Your post said selectors. Are you actually talking about nexus crystals? Because they're not the same. At least I am aware of how those two very different things work.

    Is attacking people and calling them dumb really a wise way to respond to people on your post?

    Please explain to me what a selector means to you? Because they're called Nexus Selectors, they aren't separate things lol, selector being the keyword because you can 'select' 1 champion from the 3 or 10 options a Nexus Selector or Abyss Nexus Selector gives you.

    A selector is a guaranteed and limited pool of rewards that you get to choose one item/champ from. Like a 2022 Selector crystal from previous holiday sales. Yes, you "select" a champ from a nexus crystal, but they are nexus crystals, they are not true selectors.

    I’d advocate for them making the crystal rewards from special content less rng based and more guaranteed value, since it sucks when you complete tough content and get shafted on the rewards. Do we need it? No not really, it’d just be nice, but we already get quite a few catalysts in most content rewards, which is guaranteed value.

    However, “should all champion crystals be changed to selectors,” most definitely not. Everyone would have the same champs and bg decks would have almost 0 variation from one another. Kabam did a great job in making the 7* base pool have very few duds and 0 completely useless champs that are terrible everywhere. There are more Ws than Ls, and if you get some bad pulls from there it’s likely fairly uncommon, or you just have many of the good pulls already and you’re just pulling sigs.

    Literally no one, including Kabam, refers to nexus crystals as “selectors” because that’s already a term with a different meaning used elsewhere. It’s not a technically wrong usage of the word but it’s pointlessly obtuse and misleading in the context of this game.
    Buddy if you go to Abyss of Legends the crystal there is called Abyss Nexus Selector... just read.

    Got to Abyss of legends of tell me what the prize is called. If you look it will say 'Abyss Nexus Crystal Selector'

    You don't get to tell me anything I say is dumb lmao. If we factor in the cost of a choice of a single 7 star as 9k units then what you're suggesting is even more outrageous than 5k units a day

    That's because what you're looking at is a selector. It's called that because you select from the 6 classes for your crystal. After that, it's an Abyss Nexus Crystal. The crystal is not a selector.
    He could also go check himself and realize its a crate and not a crystal...🤣

    I get wanting less RNG in a RNG game but a seven star crystal will always give a seven star. You can't say "this champ is bad" based on what you need all the time. For example, a character like Shuri has a very important dupe but her sig level isn't important after the first dupe. Is she a bad pull then? Even a universally positive champ that benefits from sigs like Domino eventually maxes out at 200. I do not want to pull a max sig seven star.

    Doing every crystal as a nexus is a bad idea but I think you could maybe do something with a guaranteed crystal based on number of misses. Say for example every 100 five stars you get from a valiant crystal, you get one guaranteed seven star. A lot of gacha games have a wish/tears system that I think MCoC could benefit from for the low hit style crystals.
