I'm sure there's some reason from you insider testing/analytical analysts (no clue if that's spelled right/phrased right) but with the removal of being able to reroll 3 champs into a random champ, 450 BE champs just feel bad to get. You guys are working to retune the leveling system and it does feel better with the guaranteed 50 BE for FWOTD, but I feel like if you brought back the rerolling everything would feel pretty good.
There is a reason for it and it was quite simple.
As soon as you own every champion underneath the blue essence value of 3150 rerolling becomes way to valuable.
This could easily be fixed by making it so that you can reroll 450 champions into shards with no more value than 3150 and having to reroll those to get access to 6300, but I have the feeling this won't happen.
I think the reason for this is that disenchanting unwanted shards is the primary way to get BE/IP now, so if they let you reroll 3, the RGN monster would strike and everyone would complain that they wasted three 450s to get another 450. OR that people would get too much BE...ofc, they could just make it so permanents couldn't be disenchanted. IDK. It's one of those mysteries like Honor progress (which I think I figured out, btw...but it's a secret).
This can't work without completely rebuilding he system from the ground up. Currently. you don't get shards. from chests at a static rate, but you get "X IP worth of shards", which can be 1 6300 shard, or 2 450 shards + 1350 shard (simplified for the purposes of example). You can use a shard to reduce the cost of a champion by about 40%. 40%. of 6300 ≠ 40% of 1350.
Rerolling 3 shards into a permanent champion only worked when all shards had an equal value, but now their value is inherently tied up. in the champion cost. the shard is for.
