Are there just none this year? I could’ve sworn there were some last year like 5k 5 star shards for each fight or something. Am I tripping?

So there are no rewards?
It costs 0 energy too.
So far, I like it from a fight perspective. Better rewards would have been nice I'm enjoying it for now.
Fights can be for fun, to enjoy yourself, to challenge yourself, to try new champions, to improve. Not just to get rewards.
Everything in the game isn't here to pour resources into your pockets. Some of it is intended to be a challenge, and challenges with too high rewards, or sometimes any rewards, fall into the problem of players believing that they deserve those rewards, and thus the challenge needs to be toned down to their level. This literally happened the last time around. By eliminating the rewards except for cosmetic ones, the content can be designed as a pure challenge meant for people who want that challenge explicitly, and don't need to be bribed to participate in it. If you're not one of those people, then it is not for you. Since there are no rewards, there's nothing to lose by passing on it. But it isn't rubbish just because you happen to not be one of those players capable of enjoying a pure challenge.
While you're sitting around with nothing at all to do, maybe this would be a good time to sharpen your playing skills, or practicing higher content, or learning how your champs work. All of that is part of the game, and a part I don't believe you've completely mastered yet. Or you can take a break from the game, and come back next month in exactly the same state you are in now, wondering where the next giant bucket of rewards is supposed to fall from.
This game is more than just doing fights cause Shiny Rewards. Enjoy challenging fights, be happy when they come with rewards, and enjoy them when they don’t. Rewards aren’t the end all be all.
so if kabam give a gem to rank up a 3 stars, you will have the resources to rank up a 3 stars in order to try the challenge and win the gem ? a bit weird...
I do hope there will be rewards, like the first showdown, but even there is non i will try the challenge at least to see i can do as well as known top players
Meanwhile, if you choose to spend the rest of the month taking a break from the game, I don't think you're going to get a lot of sympathy from others when you say you lack resources. How do you think other players get those resources, if not from grinding them out by actually playing the game?
I don't know you or how you play the game, but it sounds like you're someone who has been trying to fast track your way through everything. Focusing all your resources on the expensive proposition of ranking your "most powerful" champs, and tackling content as if you are supposed to bring a god tier champ and knock it out the first time you attempt it. I have no problem with people who choose to play the game that way, but if you choose to play the game that way you had better be extremely good at it, because the game isn't designed for that and will not help players to do it. The game is about building rosters long term and learning skills long term and overcoming content long term. If you want the fast path to everything, and if you don't have a fast path forward you're just going to step back and come back when one materializes, your playing experience with get worse and worse, and the number of people who will sympathize with your situation will get smaller and smaller.
Some things are just not going to be for you, and when you run into them you're supposed to find something else to do instead. Until you reach the absolute top of the game, there always will be something else to work on. If you choose not to do so, that's entirely your choice.
