*pulls double iron patriots*
I have been cursed with the unusual luck of pulling 4 skill gems over the last few months. One went to Blade. That was fantastic. One will eventually go to Gwenpool, although I'm not holding my breath because chances of pulling any given champ out of the basic crystal are incredibly low. That will also be awesome. After that, it's less awesome, because I have to take signature stones that could go to Blade and put them in Taskmaster or Killmonger or Thor Ragnarok to make them usable. Still, this is what I had resigned myself to. Now I find out that TM and ThorR are going to be put in a crystal with Sentry, Modok, Hela, and Void, none of which I can awaken or really use. This means a 20% (roughly and estimated, could be higher, but probably isn't much lower) chance at a champ I can use drops to an 8.3% chance, and if we're being honest about the fact that I wasn't going to for ThorR, that drops to 4.1%. Again, this is my reward for making the choice to have fewer 5* champions overall by going for the featured crystal in the first place. But then if I pull Sentry, who I would never intentionally spend shards on, Kabam will tell me that I pulled a featured champion and I should be happy. To use polite language, I think that is utterly ridiculous. And don't tell me they will eventually be added to the basic. If you spend 120k shards on featured crystals right now, your odds of getting the feature champ aren't 100%, but it's a huge deal if you miss. If I buy twelve basics tomorrow and don't get Iceman, no one will be surprised.
So either you don't understand why we were buying featured 5* crystals in the first place, or this is part of a deliberate effort to boost sales of feature Grandmaster crystals and therefore game revenue through buying units. I strongly suspect it is the latter and that is not okay at all.
You guys were killing it lately! Uncollected difficulty, Act 5, the recent event Quest was awesome and actually well written! I want to root for you!
But this is a huge failure at best and a backstab at worst.

Here's hoping you can turn it around.
Haha, my 2 medusa pulls were BPCW. Within seconds of each other. What are the odds of that.

my life is over. crystal change
Exactly. It has absolutely zero to do with that.
Hey not even people with jobs are guaranteed to get a featured out of a GMC, I've seen people online spend 600$ on featured GMCs and not get one 5*
Just it’s the first time I’ve seen you talk in clear and certain terms like this about chances of pulling a champ.
No dev/designer is sitting around the Kabam offices, or any other gaming office, talking about ways to make terrible design decisions. This is an idiotic comment to make. These guys try to create cool, unique, interesting and balanced new characters to bring to the game EVERY TWO WEEKS!! Do some miss the mark at times? Sure. But don't sit there and pretend like they do it on purpose or set out to create a character that you feel plays like garbage. Show a little respect to the hard work being put in here.
300 units for a 3*
I think we all know the overall drop rate is 20% ish but that doesn’t mean that everyone has the same chance. We all know players that seem to bat 100% and others that have have little or no success on 10-20 attempts. If it was so straghtforward then I think you guys could just come out and say what the odds on those are but the roundabout and choice of wording leads us all to believe that everything is not truly equal.
Nail on the head
Maury:I have the test results in my hands. *opens the envelope*
Muary: RH and LC you aren't the worst champs in the game now!!!!
Im guessing the 5* arenas are coming soon
~20-25% chance to get desired Featured Champ
Immediate Chance to spin for Featured Champ the moment they are released
New System:
LESS THAN 5% chance to get desired Featured Champ
up to 3 MONTHS WAITING for Chance to spin for Featured Champ after they are released
Seriously, how is this a better system? Give us better odds for Featured champs and let us wait less. We deserve that at the least.
If that's the motivation, this should be an additional crystal, not a replacement for the primary source of advancement for the strongest part of the community.
that sounds pretty accurate
So, when exactly will those drop rates be released then?
As someone who is 10-20 with no featured 5* it is so relieving to see someone else who notices what I notice. There are some people who are more likely to pull garbage and there are some people who pull god tiers back to back to back. It's almost like they just made it so that 20% of the players are lucky. Some are meh. And some are doomed.
This is from the post Mike wrote. What I don’t understand is the way this is written implies that they didn’t like how the 5* crystals were structured when a summoner wanted a particular champ. But the new method is much worse when looking for a specific champ. There is no way to get more than a 4% chance of a particular champion. It’s silly.
