6.9 million Infinity Dust and you don’t even get...

A generic awakening 5* gem. Not even sure how one can get 6.9 million but hardly seems worth the effort if it means grinding like crazy only to end up with an awakening gem you have little use for

The 5-Star Awakening Gem Crystal is definitely not going to be easy to obtain,, but luckily there are also lots of other rewards that you cost much less Infinity Dust if you don't want to put in the effort to try for it!
The players who would benefit the most from having the option to choose which class of 5* awakening gem they would receive range from mid to high level players but are not top level players. The bonus in prestige and other aspects of the game like AW attackers and defenders or even LOL teams that players would receive from a 5* class awakening gem of their choice would have no impact on the balance of the game.
Previously, players were able to duplicate specific 5* champions far more consistently than current players because of the old 5* featured crystal. Replacing the previous 5* featured crystal with the current 5* featured crystal has given all players less than 1% chance to duplicate all of their 5* champions. The only way to increase that 1% chance is to spend $ or units of featured grandmaster crystals, which does so by no more than 1-2%.
6* awakening gems/crystals of any kind have the potential to be a commodity that could change the balance of MCOC. This has not been the case with 5* awakening gems/crystals for months.
2 Things:
1) You can't buy a 5* crystal with infinity dust. You can buy the special 5* crystals with dark artifacts or you can by 5* shards with infinity dust.
2) I'm assuming you are referring to the crystals you buy with dark artifacts. If so, how are you checking your total? Are you going to the menu, selecting the crystal you want, and then tapping the button that says "Get Now 27,000"? If so, it'll say insufficient funds and have a total. That total is not the dark artifacts you have, rather the dark artifacts you still need. Thus, if you earned more dark artifacts via infinity dungeons and then try again, the number will be smaller as you are now closer to the target.
To check your current balance of dark artifacts, tap the gold/bc/loyalty bar at the top and all your resources will be displayed.
The op is talking about the awakening gem crystal in the infinity dust store next to the 4* version
I wasn't writing this for the OP. I quoted @Deeeez and responded specifically to his post.
Not really. There are too many terrible champs in the crystals now. I’ve got enough t2a to r4 two heroes but the choices are so bad there is no reason to. If there were fewer truly terrible champs it would be less of s problem. Too many bad champs
5* Featured Crystal is your friend. It’s almost 4X more likely to awaken a 5* compared to the basic crystal (4.16% chance VS 1.11% chance).
If you have said champs
IMO god tier criteria should include being able to solo tier 1-3 AW bosses and even specific tier 1-3 AW nodes because AW Season Rank rewards are 2nd only to Act 5 and Labyrinth of Legends completion and exploration rewards. Gladiator Hulk (Dormammu/Mephisto AW boss), Killmonger (Medusa AW boss, also god tier defender), Void (Node 24, Mephisto AW boss), and Morningstar (Medusa AW boss) are all very effective in AW. Proxima Midnight is also very effective outside of AW (Labyrinth of Legends), and the same goes for Bishop/Sentinel/Sabretooth as AW defenders.
It’s easy to overlook the current 5* featured crystal because it doesn’t have the most talked about champions like Blade/Sparky/Medusa/Hyperion/Iceman/etc. That doesn’t mean it’s not a better deal than the 5* basic hero crystal.
