Gold and Rank Down Tickets

Gold piece is short and sweet: Normal gameplay does not net the kind of gold it takes to even remotely keep up with rank-ups of modern tier (4, 5, & 6 star) champs. If you don't have hours and hours a day to dedicate to arenas, you're kept pretty much gold poor just paying donations for running AQ, it can take weeks or even months just to save enough to rank up one champ. Just update the gold rewards to match the cost of upgrading modern tier champs. The catalysts and ISO should be the limiting factor for rank ups, not gold. And it's not like anyone is paying actual $$$ to get gold, so I don't see the need for hesitation on Kabam's side.
I know there are threads all the time talking about rank down tickets and how they should be provided for <insert_perceived_slight_here>. Ever since the great apology package of the 12.0 SNAFU, folks have been harping for more of these wonderful items. Kabam has been mostly steadfast in their refusal, with one watered-down exception. I would like to make an argument that they should be a purchasable item. I think rank down tickets are basically only lateral movement items. There is no net gain, and in fact if they don't supply the ISO from a rank down, are actually a net loss of resources. Not to mention whatever they decide to charge for them. But the contentedness factor of the customer would be immense! We all have that champ that was super useful back when your roster was more limited, but have since gotten the next star level of, or has become obsolete due to newly introduced champs, and really have no need for any more. I don't see any negative impact to Kabam to allow the lateral champ moves these tickets provide, and throw in another way to spend some sort of resource, be it loyalty or glory or units etc. Can even make it a limited purchase item, limit of one with a reset timer of like 30 days. Would make people happy and cost Kabam nothing. Win/win.
