I can't get silver surfer... what do I do?

in General Discussion
For a bit of backstory, Silver surfer is and always has been quite possibly my favorite marvel character ever. He just seemed so cool to me the fact that this one man stood up to a world eating being to save his own planet sacrificing himself. And even furthermore from there, sacrificed his freedom to save Earth itself. I literally started surfing because of him, and I don't regret it, one of the most entertaining hobby sports I could think of. When I started mcoc a few years back the first things I thought were 1. Where is the F4, and 2. Where is Surfer? 2 years later, the sentinel of the space ways trailer comes out and I'm damn hyped! I spent the entirety of 2019 making sure I had everything I would need to take him up as soon as I hopefully got him. I got a 5 star cosmic ag from Atlantean rifts, a cosmic 2-3 gem from variant, a cosmic 3-4 gem, didn't manage to get a cosmic 4-5 gem but I have the catalysts :(. Finally, his crystals dropped today. I blew 200 dollars (Singapore) and bought every offer to try to get this guy, but to no avail. I'm going to be away and have no access to wifi or technology for when his arena/3 day crystals come around, meaning I wont be able to have another chance. So, now I ask you guys; What can I do? How can I get this champion that I've been waiting for so long?

    only way really will be to either - A) wait for him to be added to the featured 5/6* crystal pool and save your shards for then or B ) wait for him to be added to the basic pool and try for him then. No way to guarantee you will get him straight away

    Why won't you blew another $500 dollars, that way you have more chances to get Silver "wet noodle" Surfer. Seriously, he's not that great. Not even a good utility champ. Just saying. I would suggest to spend your money elsewhere. Maybe, Cav crystals?

    I appreciate the advice but it's less how good he is to me, more the fact that I love him from the marvel lore and the collector side of me just can't not have him. He isn't that bad from what I've seen and actually has some potential if played right.

    Yea. But being so heavily advertised and special event of December. He should be better than the rest of the Fantastic 4. I guess, i expected too much out of him. For me, he's a dud. Very underwhelming champ. The only good about him is, he's the highest prestige. I think.

    Save 5* shards and wait until around March I think when he's in the featured 5* crystal

    My absolute fave marvel character as well. I lucked out and got him in 5 * in the bundles yesterday. I’ve also saved units for the crystals when they come out because I want him in 4 as well. Less than 24 hours but I’ve done some heroic questing with him and he’s been good so far. Not god tier. Maybe he will be awakened ? But I had fun and once I got into a rhythm he was easily playable

    Best way to get him:
    1. Go hunting
    2. Catch a deer
    3. Roast it over a nice camp fire
    4. Burn a toast to RNG Gods and especially to Kabam Mike
    5. Open your crystal
    Viola you got him

    You forgot empty you families bank accounts

    If you wait for 6 more months you can get him for free :)

    His cav crystals should come out next Thursday so you can try your luck there. Other than that he will be released 4 months after initial release and he will be in the featured 5* pool in 3 1/2 months.

    Since you won't be present in the 3-day period where his Cavaliers will go live. Your best bet would be in January, the first new Champion in January, their Cavaliers will also have Silver Surfer, not as a featured champion, but he'll be there.

    Save your 5* shards for the featured crystals.
