New Mode/Quest Idea: Raids

Raids would be short quests, consuming no energy and bringing you to a boss immediately, and unlocked after completing Act 2. The boss would have incredibly high stats, it’s hero rating varying depending on your point in the game:
Contender: 4-6K
Proven: 7-9K
Conquerer: 14-18K
Uncollected: 40-65K
Cavalier: 80-100K
The quest would change weekly, the boss being the champion currently available in the Featured Arena. The nodes vary depending on where you are in the game. For example, Iron Man (Classic) with:
Contender:
+50% HP and Attack
+50% regeneration
Proven:
+75% HP and Attack
+50% regeneration
-10% Stun duration
Conquerer
+150% HP and Attack
+100% regeneration
+20% Armor
-20% Stun duration
Arc Overload 2.0
3rd special active
Uncollected:
+600% HP and Attack
+100% regeneration
+20% Armor
Stun immunity
Bleed immunity
Arc Overload 2.0
Aggression Armor
3rd special active
Cavalier:
+1000% HP and Attack
+100% Regeneration
+40% Armor
Debuff immunity
Aggressive
Aggression Armor
Aggression Regeneration
Unblockable Finale
3rd special active
For winning the quest, you get a Raid Crystal. A Raid Crystal is guaranteed to drop some version of the champion you defeated.
Contender Raid Crystal:
1* Iron Man: 60%
2* Iron Man: 25%
3* Iron Man: 15%
Proven Raid Crystal
2* Iron Man: 60%
3* Iron Man: 30%
4* Iron Man: 10%
Conquerer Raid Crystal:
3* Iron Man: 70%
4* Iron Man: 25%
5* Iron Man: 5%
Uncollected Raid Crystal:
4* Iron Man: 75%
5* Iron Man: 24%
6* Iron Man: 1%
Cavalier Raid Crystal:
4* Iron Man: 55%
5* Iron Man: 40%
6* Iron Man: 5%
This would allow players to get a specific champion easier if you’re fairly skilled, however you can only get the Crystal once (completion reward, there would only be one path so no exploration rewards), which means they can’t be duplicated, and there’s no guarantee that the new champion would be strong enough to actually be helpful (pulling a 4* out of a Cavalier for example) and you wouldn’t get any do-overs since you can only get the Crystal once, so they’re still slightly restricted.
This seems like it’d be a better way to get a new champion to test them out then arena. There’s no limit to how many people can get the character, it’s based more around your skill and/or roster, and as long as nothing too crazy pops up (*cough cough* 6.2 Sinister *cough*) it could actually be fun. These bosses would also be good for testing new champions you’ve recently pulled, since they would require utility to beat in addition to damage unlike RoL WS or LoL Red Hulk.
There could also be an alliance version. Enemies would be stronger, you and 2(?) other alliance members would have to take down mini-bosses with linked nodes before taking on the boss, and it would require more strategy and teamwork, but there would be better drop rates from the Crystal (and of course you’d all have to have the same title so that Contenders don’t get Uncollected Crystals).
Contender: 4-6K

Conquerer: 14-18K
Uncollected: 40-65K

thank you.
Really quite an awesome idea though, OP.
