(Why) Are there no t1a frags in map 5 crystals?

Maybe I'm late to the party, but I can't remember the last time I pulled t1a frags from a map 5 crystal. Are there seriously none in there? For months now I've been chapped at the lack of t1a's available, only to now feel I've been punished for choosing to play map 5.

Yeah and hoarding 5 star crystals isn’t paying off for you guys now that you are looking at 5+ new champs when you can only hold the materials to rank 2-3 at a time eh? You made your bed..
Use it on GGC or t4b frags.
You just don't get it. I will leave you to contemplate it. Maybe when you finally understand they will have made lower tier mata more available.
In alpha arena, map 5 crystals, reduce the amount needed for 5*, just do something. and to all you map 3 runners who think we should use our glory all on alphas, some of us do, it's still not enough, makes no sense that those who progress in the game lose access to a basic resource that becomes more and more necessary,
I have expiring ones in my stash. And yes, I’m patient with my rank ups.
Agreed
Remember that it was our complaints that got T1a and potions removed from the map 5 crystals as people were sick of pulling them.
The compromise would be too put them back into the milestones.
Plus as others have said, use your glory, if you’re far enough in that you feel the T1a squeeze then you definitely don’t need more glory crystals, if you do then you’re not as far into the late game as you think.
Admittedly I put myself in that position because I've been opening all my map 5 crystals trying to get more alphas. But seriously it's bonkers how little we get considering how many you need for 5* rank ups. @Speeds80 put it best IMO
Opening map 5 crystals to get more alphas? They’re not available there.
There’s no need to rank all 5*s to r2/r3. I only do so when I have expiring t1as. Learning to manage resources wisely is part of the game.
1. Haven’t progressed far enough to need large quantities at 1 time I.e. ranking multiple 5 stars.
2. Play mostly Map 3 or lower
3. Don’t have the gold to rank your heros up
4. Don’t have many champs and are hoarding your alpha for that 1 special champ.
5. Or In some situations are so far advanced that you ranked most of your 5 Star heros before they decreased the drop rate.
Stop saying you can buy them in the glory store. We know this. I buy every single one, every week, hit every single milestone etc. meaning I max out every opportunity to get them and still come up short. Someone in my alliance spun 135 greater solo crystals and didn’t pull a single t1 alpha. They didn’t even have a single one in the cyber Monday deals!! They are doing it on purpose, that’s why the 1000s of threads go unanswered.
You both obviously don’t do 5x5. When you finally do, you will understand the struggle. I have 12 T4CC expiring this month and at the drop rate and t1 availability, even if I max out every opportunity to buy one and earn one I have a feeling it won’t be enough.
I also think the arena needs an update, maybe the chance to earn 3 at different intervals of milestones upto 2.5M.
How about you pipe down before coming to such assumptions as I lead a 5x5 alliance.
I never said it isn’t an issue I was more directing my comment at the people saying they need T1a but then buy glory crystals instead of them.
I’ll admit I have a couple in overflow, but that’s not because I don’t do map 5 as you incorrectly presumed, it’s because I lack a lot of T4b. Throw on top the fact that my last 3 5* pulls have been ant man and suddenly my need for T1a is gone and replaced with a need for T4b just to use some of my T4cc before they start piling into overflow.
Now, would you like a hand getting down from your high horse?
Don’t make me laugh dude. Similar to @Mr_Platypus, I lead a 12m alliance in tier 2 doing 5x5. I just checked your in-game profile, you’re far far away from where I am in the game. My champs on the second page of my roster will still triumph your profile’s top 4 champs. You’re still new in figuring out the game and how to manage upgrade resources.
Honestly I feel sad that you have 12 T4C expiring this month but it’s on you for not managing your resources well and having them expire.
You’re saying you don’t have 16 alphas after 2 months? And knowing that you’re going to be trying for Stark featured, you didn’t prepare enough resources in case you got him?
Every month there are 10 3day alliance events, 3 T1A arenas, 3-4 AQ Cycles, and you’re telling me you can’t muster 16 t1a in a month?
Whatever. I don't rank champs that often and never have enough t1 alphas. Glad you don't have a problem with alphas but this has been an issue for a lot of players for awhile.
Yup that must be it. I've completed all game content to date except for 100% LOL (only one run so far). I'm an officer in an active 12 million alliance. Must just not play the game very much.
