Why are 7* Odin’s buff = to the 6*

I’m not here to complain that this is game breaking or massive or anything of that magnitude; but I just can’t understand why Kabam would change the precedent already established with Odin’s lower rarities. Every rank of Odin has his pre fight buffs improved(even if by 1%) over the previous rank; however for 7* Odin, his pre fights are no different from his 6*… Im pretty confident this was definitely intentional but I just don’t understand why? Even the 4* has a 1% increase in their aptitude buff over their 3*, so why just stop? Feels weird and uncalled for idk. Maybe some communication as to why the decision was made when he released as a 7* would’ve been appropriate.
Like I said, this isn’t major or anything, but it’s one of those things that’s so small that it’s makes me question why Kabam felt the need to change the precedent

The only way this makes sense, is if they were so lazy that they just wanted to copy and paste the 6* to the 7* without overlooking anything which is ridiculous to even say because they still got to do stat adjustments, so I just don’t get it.
LMFAOOOOOO WOAHHH slow your roll there buddy, we just got 7*s this year and you’re saying they gimping champs now cause of future 8 and 9 star rarities? That’s pretty nonsensical and kinda highlights how ridiculous(tho not major) it is to purposely release champs gimped. I’m not gonna say “nerfed” but definitely gimped because they’re holding certain aspects(big aspects in guardian and odin case) to a 6* power level.
I purposely mentioned the 1% increase from the 3-4* to explicitly show how handled that potential problem before.
It could’ve been:
Aptitude-2% increase to 17%
Protection- 2-3% decrease to 12-13%hp capped
Shock- 2-5% increase to 92-95% resistance. Just for that lilll bit more healing off willpower
Just to follow the precedent THEY established. No one In the community that I saw was asking for outrageous values
And the argument of 100% shock resistance being OP and 90% being reasonable has always been funny to me cause 90% is essentially the same thing as Omega Red getting a bleed on him… Odin buff already turned it to willpower! A small increase in willpower isn’t breaking the game but definitely goes a long way.
AND this isn’t entirely new cause you can get 100% bleed resistance with some champs and mastery(Omega red for example)
Going forward with other champs, this “small issue” can be potentially grow since Guardian and Odin are the only ones I know of so far affected by this
They are not "gimped" if they were never even built to be the way you envisioned them to be to begin with.
This whole thing is such a non-issue because if Guardian and Odin werent released as a 7 stars, people would still be using the 6 star versions with no complaints.
I obviously know 8 and 9 stars arent coming any time soon, im simply saying if they keep constantly updating their kit per star level eventually they'll be nothing to upgrade so they set a soft cap.
