Wrapping My Head Around Crystal VII

This is actually really useful.

I picked up Lane Johnson for just over one million coins, and completed a Crystal Champion Upgrade Token Set. That means that now:

Lane Johnson substitutes for Isaiah Pola-Mao and Saquon Barkley. So I sprung for Foyesade Oluokun and AJ Brown. With Lane Johnson, one each of the Crystal Set One champions and one each of the Crystal Set Five LTD's (or Redux's), I can get +1 SPD twice to one team, or one each to two teams.

I don't need the luxury of this newest set's other two players, but if I had them, the two tokens on the LTD, and a token on the other champion, I could get +2 SPD from three players. I could also throw in the full Crystal Set One crew and the full Crystal Set Five crew, and get a total of +4 SPD distributed as I like. 

Yeah, that's overkill.

I have the first set of crystals, if I'm reading correctly, i can essentially turn Lane into Barkley and Surtain and thus use those slots elsewhere, while basically keep my current boost?

Not exactly. The Crystal Set VII Champions with a Crystal Champion Upgrade Token can substitute for one of Barkley or Parsons . You would need Crystal Set VII Jaylen Waddle and at least the Crystal Redux Upgrade Token to substitute for Surtain. You would need the Crystal LTD Upgrade Token to substitute for Oluokun from Crystal Set V.

That is helpful. I've been trying to get rid of one of those guys forever. I haven't got one the game yet so im definitely trying not to screw up and rush a move

To clarify, each of Crystal VII's players have a bucket for each of the past Crystal trios. They're unlocked with upgrade tokens that require you to redeem Crystal players. Special rules apply to the LTD.

What might be practical in many cases for users who collected most of the Crystal players along the way is to get the Crystal Set VII Champions, and redeem the champions from the past Crystal trios to complete the two Crystal Champion Upgrade tokens. Use those two players to anchor any of the trios, and then get your LTD/Redux for each of the specified Crystal chemistries you need.

This seems more confusing than an actual promo from EA

And that’s saying a lot.

I appreciate the write up but I’m still confused as shit on it

Each Crystal VII player has buckets for each of the six prior Crystal chemistry trios. When unlocked by the Crystal Champion Upgrade Token, the two Crystal VII Champions' buckets contribute one component to any one chemistry of each trio. When unlocked by the Crystal LTD Upgrade Token, the Crystal VII LTD's buckets contribute three components to any one chemistry of each trio. (The Crystal Redux Upgrade Token unlocks only the Crystal chemistry buckets from the first four Crystal releases.)

An upgraded Crystal VII Champion can substitute for one Crystal Champion from each of the past Crystal releases.

Therefore, if you have each of Lane Johnson, Will Johnson, and Jaylen Waddle fully upgraded, you get one fully-upgraded chemistry from each of the trios from past releases; those three players would effectively replace 18 players.

would like to be able to sub out crystal micah snd keep the boosts, how much gold coins will this cost

Thankyou. This makes much more sense. Seems like for the cost, it isn’t worth it, that’s just my opinion though.
