All crystals should be Nexus - More choice

Let me share this feeling while it is still fresh. I have just opened a featured 6* and I got Guillotine. It could be worse: it could be Karnak. The feeling is a disappointment.
First of all, I know how RNG works and most of the time, it sucks! And after six years of playing this game, I still get this bitter taste in my mouth when RNG has some fun of me. 
However, if I was a new player, opening a featured 6* expecting Hercules or another new hero, I could easily see myself quitting the game.
Surely the Nexus crystal would not guarantee a top pick, but it would allow the player to choose.  It could be Guillotine, Karnak, or X-23. Still, it would be my choice.
With over 200 heroes in the game, Kabam could make this adjustment to the crystal. This is not too complex to implement, probably two to three months to change, test and launch. Not a game-changer, but one of these small improvements that have a positive impact on MCOC.

    Eventually and I do mean years down the road all Champion crystals will eventually be Nexus and when that happens it's going to be the same thing like when the dual-class crystals first came into being.. There will be a period of excitement and adulation followed eventually by claims of conspiracy if they don't get their desired champion and eventually General indifference and anticipation of the next shiny new thing.

    I don't believe in in-game conspiracy, it is RNG and that's why I want more choice for the player.

    If a player gets this frustrated about it, maybe they should indeed reconsider why they chose to play a gacha mobile game as their form of entertainment rather than the thousands of other games that do not have RNG.

    It's a proven game system that works incredibly well to drive sales which is the entire reason they're able to offer the game for free - they don't need to adjust how crystals work in this game and make everything a nexus, that would reduce sales and thus revenue and thus they couldn't offer the game in this format.

    For most of us, we're totally fine with the RNG aspect of the game - we understand it and play the game because it's free and convenient and fun.

    Nor do I but it still doesn't stop all other threads from popping up, claiming shenanigans whenever they miss their desired champion by 1 or if it wasn't even in the reel at all, even though everybody already knows that the reel at the bottom is merely a visual aid, not the actual deciding factor.
