Same applies to the unlucky part. If you're unlucky, you'll get the patriot from the featured and you'll be very upset. (happened to me a few times aswell)
You need to calculate odds for having “good” result based on formula:
Odds=number of cristals * (number of good heroes / number of possible heroes)
Let’s assume you have 8/24 interesting feature heroes and 20/96 interesting basic heroes.
Odd for feature = 2 * 8 / 24 = 67%
Odd for basic = 3 * 20 / 96 = 62%
In such a case, I would choose feature Cristals
The current 5-star featured crystal has the opportunity to provide a roster-altering character. There's no doubt about that -- Domino, Iron Man (IW), Hyperion...those characters can change how you play on offense and defense.
But there's also Groot and Iron Patriot in there.
If you have the stomach for the risk of the extra 5,000 shards -- because 10K are sunk cost, no matter whether you go basic or featured -- then do the featured. Because there are pretty decent odds that you are going to get a fairly decent character.
But that's not guaranteed. It's just not. You could get a Groot or IP.
When I was faced with this choice twice recently, I went with the Basics. Not because I think that's the best choice. It's just the choice I made, based on how I process risk vs. reward.
Out of the four basic crystals I have opened since the current feature crystal has come out, I got, in order, Doctor Voodoo, Hyperion, Angela and Spider-Gwen.
When I opened basics during the last five-star featured, I got, in order: Phoenix, Winter Soldier, Beast and Gambit.
So there's no rhyme or reason to it. No telling what you're gonna pull. Sometimes, you're gonna get a Hyperion. Sometimes, you're gonna get a Spider-Gwen. Just the way it is
i went for featured, and got garbage:
- hela
- psylocke
- ironpat
- groot
But hela isn’t garbage? She’s like high Demi god imo
