New Black ISO store - enough to keep paying for it?

In the beginning I mainly used the Black ISO store for the extra storage, I stopped thinking it was worth it pretty quickly and stopped paying for it. Then when they added Sigil Witch, I started buying it again. Next Monday I will be able to purchase the dupe (I quit the game for several months in between). My plan is to be done purchasing the Sigil.
I like a lot of the changes and I think that some of what they added is great. However I am disappointed at the token total to get a 6* crystal. The way it is now you pay 160 tokens (about 4.5 months) to get a very good champion and then again to dupe her. Now it is 120 tokens (about 3.5 months) to get a random 6*. I feel like it should be around 75 tokens, which would still take just over 2 months to get (36/month). I was really hoping for another Sigil Champ, maybe one from the new Dr. Strange movie or Agatha Harkness as she recently lost out on the summoners choice.

I also like being able to exchange 10k 5* shards for 3k 6*, however that will lead to a shortage of ISO over time.
Could it be better? Definitely.
But when you release a "pack" that costs nearly $200 worth of units and doesn't even get you a fully leveled 5* champ? You know what the real priority is.
With so many champs in the crystal now, it is hardly exciting to open them for the many garbage champs or dupes of them. Will there be increase to the sigil we get per week? 120 sigils = $120 usd for a 6 * random is .. hardly an interesting announcement.
As for the potions, while a nice addition, it wouldn’t make a difference for those of us that don’t bother with certain game modes.
Why bother investing time and most likely a lot of money when you can just buy it all during gifting event … if I am still playing by then … will probably be elsewhere at that point.
Sad to see no effort spent for premium content…
At least for Thronebreakers, you can theoretically buy three T2A for 1875 glory in the updated glory store: six purchases of 18k fragments each. With the price ramps, that starts at 250 and goes up to 375. You can then trade three T2A for one T5B in the Black ISO store. The glory store resets with AQ so it is on an eight day cycle not seven, but this will come close to getting four T5B in a month from about 7500 glory.
For people who temporarily find themselves unbalanced between T2A and T5B, or for people who earn them at unbalanced rates, I think the 3:1 T2A to T5B bidirectional trade might be the most significant one in the Black ISO store. I haven't done the math for every title, but the Thronebreaker exchange rates seem very attractive to me.
Honestly, the Sigil feels aimed at earlier stage players. It can be nice to trade up for shards, but other than Sigil Witch I cannot point to a major impact on my account. I cannot recall ever trading for many of the lower tier items in the store.
The changes are an improvement, and I will have a week or so to check them out. But I cannot see myself dropping $10 a month ever again.

These announced updates do not change my mind
I had originally started getting Sig for the inventory increase and 5* shards.... but then stopped because the inventory increase wasn't worth it when it didn't apply to so many things like Energy.
Then I got it to get Sig Witch.... and stopped again... Looking at the boost Cav's are getting, I'm just not seeing the value for me.
I used to spend quite a bit of money in the game.... but these last couple of years of what the game has been putting out squashed a lot of my desire to play and most certainly killed my motivation to spend money.
