Would you reset your roster if given the option?

Say for some amount ($20?) you could reset your roster and get every single token you ever used back. Would you take your chances and reroll your roster?

Opening tokens is the main pull of the game for many so this would allow you to do that and set up a new roster to try the events with.

I am pretty sure I would do something like this every so often just because it would a ton of fun to do.

    Well, it would depend - would I open all of my old tokens according to the same drop rates that were in place when I opened them last time? Or would the new odds and new character mixes be in effect? What about event tokens, or tacos? Can I have all the ISO I ever spent back? What about covers that I had purchased with HP - given that feature isn't supported anymore?

    The hardest part of that choice would be my champed OML. Given the 2.5% drop rate he has in classic legends now I would project a very high risk that I wouldn't get him back.

    as screwed up as my pulls have been - yes I have a decent pull rate but most all the pulls are concentrated on 3 abilities, so I've had to sell several and 2 total for phx. I'd pull mine again. I miss the lower mmr anyway. oml/other is pretty boring, but better than endless oml/phx. I'd probably park all of my 5s at 360 or so. yes, I'd reset.

    Would I get back all the covers I got from placement and progression rewards too?

    if i could get back all the iso ive earned to go along with it, yes, yes i would. and i would love to get back all the scrapped four stars as tokens to reroll. so much waste.

    Considering how tokens and such have changed since day one, I might be tempted.

    Maybe I wouldn't bother getting Moonstone to level 94 this time.

    Of course. Chances are I wouldn't get the same **** luck twice in a row...

    Sure. I'd enjoy 18 dupes of Moonstone. </sarcasm>

    The premise depends on what token you get for what cover. At the baseline I'd expect a heroic for a 2* and a legendary for a 4*, but 3*s are scattered around. If my 3*s become heroics - no freaking way. If my 5*s became legendaries - no freaking way.

    I've been anomalously lucky with OML covers. No way am I giving that up for a re-up. If I were to omit that character, I still wouldn't. Having the 3*'s mostly champed at this point, I can't imagine a plausible scenario where randomizing my roster would be to my benefit.

    100% yes. It seems close to mathematically impossible that my 5* luck would be as bad a second time.

    Unless you've gotten 0 5*, this is hyperbole.

    i have 6 5*'s total (not including the IM46 my alliance won, and the SS + OML that I got from the resupply) and almost 200 4* covers - not including the ones i've had to sell (3 in the last week alone). My grand total since the updated odds? zero.

    I rarely hit 2000 in SHIELD Sim, etc, so the vast majority of those have been from LT's. Even removing the covers i had before SS was introduced, my percentage is far below the 10% being advertised.

    So yeah - i'll take that chance.

    Not enough detail. Do you get the ISO back too? Do you get back all non token covers, be the from events, champion rewards, or SHIELD resupply? If not, then no friggin way.

    If so, then we have an interesting proposition. Where it gets really intriguing is the possible double dip on LTs from champion rewards.

    For example, I champ a 3*, I get a legendary token. I open that token, so I assume in a reset I get it back. So, I do the reset, and draw 14 covers off that 3* again. Thus, I end up with a second LT, one I had opened and got back with the reset, and a new one for championing a 3* the second time.
