Because 5 stars and 6 stars are keys to unlock content. It is a requirement set for people to be able to do the content. It pushes you to get and rank 5 stars. It makes you stop ranking easily obtained 4 star champions and redirect your resources towards 5 stars. If you dont like it too bad. Get use to it because this is going to be the New contest of champions. The content is still not designed for rank 1 5 stars. When you enter a wuest you see the PI recommended too. Act is specifically designed for 4/55 and 5/65 5 stars along with 6 stars. If you dont have them work for them until you obtain then and rank those champs up.
I love that Act 6 will finally separate the summoners from the children.
End of story.
One more thing. If you’re clearly not ready for act 6 then why the hell bother commenting on it? Worry about arena, finishing act 5, variant or whatever else you’re still missing. (Looking at you, GW)
Also for those uncollected or elders bane, have a crystal similar to fgmc which only has 5* with chance of a 6* for maybe 500 units.
Another out the box solution, have a pool of champs everyone can pick from to do the content, not limited to who is in your roster. Evens the playing field.
What actually is the point of an Elder’s Bane title?
Perhaps I’ve forgotten what we got for it, but I remember it necessitated a multiple of the work and effort required for achieving the title of Uncollected. Other than signifying that we explored all of Act 5 (which means multiple cheapshot Collector passes, not just one) and was among several good rewards, it was just another empty title to go on the shelf, unless my recollection fails me.

It seems they skipped EB completely, and the Cavalier rewards look to be weak when you've already completed a run of 6.1.
I'm pretty much not happy with ANY thing announced here, BTW. The rewards/ effort ratio looks abysmal, the "gating" issue is ridiculous (gate should be based on CR, otherwise why was CR even implemented?), the communication from mods has been less than "transparent", and I still can't believe that after 4 years and counting we are relying on a merciless pRNG system to advance in game.
Elder’s Bane should be a stepping stone that moves players closer to “endgame of endgames” or whatever Act 6 is supposed to be. But it doesn’t—it comes with an infusion of cats and rankup materials that are only useful if you have champs worth a rankup.
At some level, the title is akin to a Fortnite skin you can’t even put on your champ. It’s vapor, and when I step back, I think that’s where a lot of this has gone awry. Periodic rewards attuned to Elder’s Bane recipients and designed to prep rosters for the rigors of Act 6 should have been part of the process.
Understandably, the team likely makes new content decisions on more of an ad hoc basis than they’d like us to know. Act 5 titles probably weren’t envisioned with Variant and the Maze and Act 6 in mind.
But...ret-cons are a core part of comics. If the gate is set in stone, it’s certainly not too late to ret-con a title to assuage some of the soreness in the community.

I’m happy for you that RNG has favored you. Some of us have also put in tons of time, resources and planning and yet we have only a handful of great champs. Which, as I posted earlier is my case. Many others are in the same boat.
You may be a nice guy, but you are no coming across that way. As someone else said, try to consider this from the perfective of the broader community not your own situation just because luck has favored you.
