6 star offers have been crazy lately. 3k units can awaken either Hercules or kitty. And most end game players have more than 150–200 6 stars, even mid tier players have 100 or above 6 stars. And kabam needs money for champions hype, which reflects on cavs. This game is all about champs. If ppl already have all the 6 star champs they want, how can kabam keep getting more money? Relics or strikes can’t feed Kabam’s wallet. They are definitely releasing 7 stars to continue boosting their revenue. So IMO 7 stars will probably be shown when 6 star rank 4 can be easily obtained. So what do you think about 7 stars?

-says the financial analyst who also knows exactly how they work and how the entire player base will feel about spending money on them
The relic system can very well replace further stars number
But, if (and when) 7 stars do come, they need to release content catered towards them. As many have said, there really isn't much content that we even need r3's for, let alone maxed out 6 stars. Basically all of the game can be done with maxed out 5 stars. So the real detriment to adding 7 stars is also adding the appropriately challenging content.
Either way, I don't see it happening for a long time, if at all, but I'm not going to be bothered if it does happen.
As another point, you never left space in your poll for people to disagree with your point of view that 7* champs are imminent. All of the options are just on how we would react if they were added. You mentioned that you think they’ll be added around the time that 6* R4 is “easily obtained” but I doubt it will even be relatively common for TB players to have even 1 6* R4 by the end of this year. I’m really confused by your timeline.
You also state that “relics can’t feed Kabam’s wallet”…… and then go on to say that they’ll release 7* champs to make more money. How can you think that they would introduce relics and not be able to make money off them? Especially if they are meant to delay the introduction of new champion rarities, I can see Kabam making bank off the introduction and release of new relics, even if they are reasonable about making them achievable for F2P players. The problem with releasing 7*s too early is that an increasingly accelerated game economy can wreck the game (and thus make Kabam lose money) more than it can help the game. They do want money but they do have experience on how to keep a game alive.
I usually try to find some common ground with posts, but I just see so differently than you on most things. I appreciate that you keep a relatively positive voice about this though, since many people complain whenever they mention 7*s.
