Without that, it is a slowwww grind to get them, takes beating some of the best content in the game, like the uncollected monthly quests or the mid monthly quests. Or dupe a 5*
You can complete story mode, ACT 5 gives you (if i remember correctly) enough for a 6*
For your roster don´t worry about them now, focus in 5*
If 12.5-13m is too much 2x a week - 6.5-7m should get you half the rewards
It is more correct to say that trying for them directly is probably too far of a single leap forward. You should be trying to become uncollected first, then trying to build up to completing uncollected on the easiest path, then trying to be able to fully complete uncollected, then think about building up your 6* roster. Because one of the two best ways to get 6* champions are buried within those goals. Fully completing uncollected gets you 1/4 of a 6* champ per month. Besides that, slowly accumulating 5* champs and using them to grind in the 5* featured arena is the other best way, because you directly get shards but more importantly you begin duping 5* champs by acquiring 5* shards.
true story: my second account has a 6 star champ but was not uncollected before getting it. How's that even possible you ask?
1) completed the symbiote event, epic level, collect 2500 6* shards.
2) cyber Monday unit deal: 1 odin = 2500 6* shards, limit 3. purchase 3.
result: 10k 6* shards. pull karnak.
He's fine tho, since the account is only lvl 53 and the 3 top champs are 5/50 blade/korg/void with a 3/45 domino waiting for gold to go 4/55.
that's the quickest i can think of getting those shards, clearly they're going to let you buy them (chunks of shards) going forward.
But for the most part, getting that first one is bound to disappoint a little if it’s one of the countless champs that needs to be awakened. Examples would include Namor, OR, Void, Aegon—all great champs that rely heavily on being duped (and in some cases, at a very high level).
The L200 6* champs you see on profiles are for players who have committed incredible resources towards the game (various combinations of time, money & effort). Max 6*’s are very dear and hard to come by.
So strive for a 6*, but don’t make opening a 6* crystal a make or break event. Just think of it as getting a R4 5* champ from a crystal and don’t stress about what it winds up being. Most of mine (16) are functionally useless.

His “effectiveness” is legendary...allow me to present:
So...cautionary tale, before you or anyone else gets excited about a 6* crystal. Lunkers like this one are lurking everywhere.

ive completed 5.1.6 and hv 7450 6 star shards
correct me if im wrong but shudnt collecting 2650 shards easy to get within 2-3 months???
And in the process of doing all these things, you will start accumulating 6* shards.
The best in-game goals you can give yourself are content completion goals. Don't aim to get a 6*, because I guarantee you will be disappointed. I have 9 6*'s and I only use 2 of them, because my 5*'s are so much better than the rest of my 6*'s.
