Introducing: The Calculator

It’s been a long sore: players get a new champion and wonder how much xp and cash it would cost to upgrade it, what the attributes would be and how this new champion would fare in a battle.
That’s why I suggest to add a new aspect to the game: The Calculator. The Calculator is an Einstein-like in-game only character. He has a Phd in Championology and advises The Collector about champions. He can be accessed in the Champions tab, somewhere in the bottom-right corner. Clicking on him opens a new interface.
In this interface, you can put up to three of your champions side-by-side, either showing attributes or abilities. However, you can also ask The Calculator to calculate. The calculation can show you the attributes of a champion based upon the tier, rank, level or signature level of your choosing (provided you have that champion in some way). What is the hero rating, attack, health or critical hit score of a maxed out 4* sig 99 Gamora? With one push of the button The Calculator gives you that.
The Calculator can do so much more. He also can simulate an entire fight. Go to simulation mode. In there, you can put one of your champions against a simulated one. You can choose the stats of the champion, the difficulty of the AI and which node boosts it has. This fight is entirely free, it is purely meant for you to train without any cost. Having difficulties with a boss? Train in the simulation different strategies before you try it for real.
It is up to Kabam to decide if such fights should be rewarded: cash or a new type of tokens. Maybe a community aspect could be added, so players can have an accessible in-game platform to share hints & tips.
I think this would be a great addition to the game: it gives players more know-how to base their decisions on and give them to opportunity to learn tremendous amount of game play. New or old players, everyone could use The Calculator.

...how does this give Kabam money again?
By making it cost units or money to unlock?
NOOO, don't encourage them. This is a great idea.
Units,Then.Great Idea,it is,lol
Their main source of income is crystals,
Also,I don't think anyone would spend real money to get units for revives and potions anyway.
Ya gotta look at at some ways in which it's reasonable for kabam and the players,
So...A 7 day free trial,and THEN units or money to unlock permanently?
Seems good too...(They could do it the other way around too)
Also,How about adding an ability to create new nodes in there?
It can be limited to be
Basic concepts of the game,Not new nodes doing new things,
Just a way to mix em up.(And create champ specific nodes)
Love the idea though
I do agree that this is a similar thing to the idea this whole string is about, but the new mode was supposed to let you choose the difficulty of the champ you go up against, something that is not easily possible in duels. Also, there would still be challenge in quests, as a strong enemy will still put up a fight no matter how prepared you may or may not be.
Plenty of ways to find champs around the difficulty you’re looking for. Alliance mates, general chat, friends, leaderboards - all allow you to find the champ you're looking to practice against plus I think if you search, you’ll probably find a list of champs with easy and hard duels on reddit/ClanHQ. I agree setting the difficulty would be a lot easier but do you really need the precision for an exact level or sig level of a champ?
As far as the challenge in quests is concerned, it would definitely make questing a lot easier if you can practice several times before you enter them — you’re saving energy and potions because you’ll die less often on challenging nodes. Takes away the resource management aspect of the game.
I do like the idea of checking prestige/atk/health before ranking/leveling up.
This game is so you can win, why would it be bad if you can train? If it really hurts Kabam, they can make some bosses requiring a fee (so you burn resources a different way).
Thanks for supporting half of my suggestion.
