MCU crystal has one major flaw in it - please rectify!

As the title states, the contents of the MCU crystal award at the end of the month from the EPIC content (and I’m assuming the lesser variants as well) has one massively glaring wrong champ in it.
The crystal contains many of the characters from the MCU, which is exactly how it should be. Yes, even Antman should be in there.
The one champ that should not be in this crystal though, is Iron Patriot.
Iron Patriot has not been in the MCU. At all.
The Iron Patriot in the Iron Man movies was just Warmachine renamed and spraypainted.
The Iron Patriot in this game is the comics version where Norman Osborn is in the suit. You know, the guy that in the regular timeline of the comics is Green Goblin?
Please, for the love of all that’s Marvel, remove Iron Patriot from the crystal, it is a stain in the crystal to most Marvel fans I’m sure. Replace him with any other champion, hero or villain, but please.. be true to the MCU for this crystal.

Tell me again which Champ from the first Thor movie is in the 5* crystal...
If you answer Loki, I’ll ask the same for the second Thor movie. Since that boat will have sailed already then..
I’m fine with him being in the crystals. Yes, I dislike him as much as anyone here, but that’s not the reason he shouldn’t be in this crystal.
Like I said, stick Antman in instead. Or any other MCU based character that was introduced since the game started to follow up movies with champs.
But not Iron Patriot. He’s not MCU. Not in this game.
As is said before. Ant-man...
He at least is a valid MCU champ.
IP at least has his name and his suit in IM 3
There are three Iron man movies.
From those, only the regular Ironman is in the crystals. Correct?
Now, taking the first two Thor movies, based on those, only Loki is eligible to get thrown in, leaving one of the two movies ‘entry-less’.
The third installment of Thor gave the options of both Ragnathor and Ragnahulk. Not the first two.
So there shouldn’t ‘need’ to be an entry for IM3 specifically.
Iron Patriot in this game is a villain character in the Marvel comics history.
Iron Patriot in this game is not James Rhodes, it’s Norman Osborn.
There is no relation to the MCU whatsoever.
Absolutely. And there is no reason for IP to be in any of them.
Tell me which champ fits the bill for the first two Thor movies.
Your argument is absolutely non-existent.
The fact remains that the game’s version of IP is unrelated to the MCU..
Thor 1 = Thor
Thor 2 = Loki
Not gonna keep going in circles with you.
Same
Obviously bw wouldn't be in the 5* crystal but it makes more sense in terms of mcu as it is a different iron patriot
If the basis for addition is being in the MCU, then Iron Patriot has no business in the crystal in any level of crystal.
Iron man 2- BW
Incredible Hulk- Abomination
Thor- Hawkeye
Avengers- Hulk
Iron man 3- Iron Man
Thor Dark World- Loki
There fixed it lol
Is just a crystal, with a selected group of champions in there. Disregard the name of the crystal
Wow you clearly don't understand the point of these crystals.
Go to the Store in the game. Look at the name of the section that the crystals are being sold in. It is called "Gate Crystals". The Crystal's contain the characters used to open the gates in the Gwenpool Goes to the Movies quest. Iron Patriot will be a character needed to open the gate for the Iron Man 3 quest. Therefore Iron Patriot is in crystal. It's not complicated.
There will probably even be a joke in the quest about it "not being the same Iron Patriot".
You also do realise that none of the options for obtaining a crystal contains the 5* crystal though right?
I get that there are gates and I would honestly faintly smile at that joke since it would be a bad joke.
The 2*, 3* and 4* crystals all have champs in there that won’t be in the 5* crystal because they simply do not exist as such.
Beside the point that I still think Iron Patriot shouldbe replaced by Antman in that final crystal, I will still maintain that he should not be referenced in any way to the MCU since he (the game version) was never part of it.
Personally I feel it’s bad form towards fans of the comics and movies to add IP to the reward crystal. Not because it’s IP. Because it’s just wrong from an MCU perspective.
He was bad at the end
The point of the crystal is definitly based around the mcu. Its called cinematic crystal its celebrating 10 years of marvel studios and the quests are even called the title of the films
