Kabam what are the chances of getting a particular 5* champion?

I have opened 10 basic 5* crystals & 3x featured 5* crystals. Out of 13 I have pulled 7x science, 5x mutant & 1x tech, so my pulls roughly equate to 54% science, 38% mutant & 8% tech.
Currently there are 72 champions in the basic crystal & although there are not equal numbers of each class, there isn't massively more of one class than another.
If there was an equal chance of getting each champ surely I should have pulled champs from skill, mystic or cosmic? Kabam, is there not an equal chance of getting each champ? Or is there a great chance of getting a meh champ & most of them are science?

I am sure we will see regulation to deal witht his in the coming years as it gets more and more popular.
to be honnest that's the most faaar away thing from being random in the game.
i just openned 10 5* too and all i got was **** and the celebration thing got me venom 5*
it's random when a noob oppens star lord in one crystal and u stuff like iron patriot she hulk in 10
So Crystal drop rates are not random by any reasonable definition of the word. The outcome may be randomly generated,from the possible results, that Kabam’s algorithms have determined, will generate the highest revenues from the player base.
If it’s simply the same, equal chance of each and every champ across all instances and for all players at all times, then that’s something I would classify as truly random. And if that’s the case, I see no reason to keep it a secret. Publish drop rates, eliminate conspiracy theories and threads once and for all. It won’t happen, but that’s what I would do.

To the OP : Your example proves how random the rng is. Every pull you have the same chance of getting any of the 72 champs, there is no reason to think these would be split equally on each class. That would actually show it wasn't random
OP got mostly science champs with his small sample of pulls. There are prob other players in the game who got mostly mystic or mutant etc etc but they just haven't posted about it.
@MisterNiceGuy A good point, and I agree that most who gripe about RNG do so because they didn't get good outcomes---however, the question isn't whether other games share rates but rather whether they should share or should be required to share rate data when it comes to loot boxes.
Let me reiterate what I said earlier: it won't happen, but it is what I would do.

If it was properly fully random then I think they would be more transparent. But I can sort of understand from their point of view why they would need to exercise some level of control, if you hit 2 or 3 god tier 5*s right at the start you are able to cut through more content and less likely to spend.
The irony for me is, I’ve spent on this game, and I’ve grinded on this game, quite a bit, but the consistent demoralising 5* pulls has led me to question my spending for the first time.
Disclaimer - these words are simply representative of my thoughts and in no way an allegation against Kabam, or to be taken as fact. Miike closed a thread of mine on this topic last week so just being clear.
Science x10 (59%)
Mutant x5 (29%)
Mystic x1 (6%)
Tech x1 (6%)
Skill x0 (0%)
Cosmic x0 (0%)
lol that is a tiny sample
Science x4 (11%)
Mutant x6 (17%)
Mystic x4 (11%)
Tech x5 (14%)
Skill x8 (23%)
Cosmic x8 (23%)
Nobody but the community has ever said that.
You sir must be don't watch BG
Anecdotally I personally opened 15 of the FGMC 2017 crystals. I got a variety of 3*'s and 2 4* KP's. In a true world of RNG the probabilities of that must be astronomical considering that crystal had 3,4 & 5* options in it.
Strange to call out the "RNG Chorus" for their comments not having the true cold hard facts to back up their POV...considering the "it's all rigged/Kabam is cheating Chorus" comments are based on the same amount of information.
I am not trying to argue one POV over another here...some of the posts from the RNG Chorus are not about defending Kabam, or claiming 100% knowledge of drop rates....some of them are in response to someone posting their last 5-10 crystal openings and making declarative statements that it "cannot possibly be fair RNG" when mathematically it is completely possible it is RNG. Not making the argument to defend Kabam...just making the argument to defend math.
If you post that 2+2=7....I do not care why you are posting 2+2=7 or if your suspicions are correct, but I will point out that 2+2 does not equal 7
BG is part of "the community".
4 Cosmics (Venom x2, Venompool, Angela)
4 Skill (Elektra, BP, Agent V)
1 Tech (Hulkbuster)
1 Mystic (Guilly)
1 Science (Yellow Jacket)
Not really complaining but it's just no way that it's pure RNG.
