Most of the Elite R4 are pretty weak compared to what's in the deck of a player with a few episodes under their belt. I'd love to go for co-op bonus if there was a chance for some new Elite R4 that could only be pulled from medals (as opposed to episode X3 X5 X10 which can be bought) that were also strong enough to have a high position in my deck.

I would prefer an entirely different set of cards for what you are proposing. Maybe something like a "Legends" Optimus Prime in the same manner that "Elite" Optimus Primes are available. Also, if an additional set is not introduced then I feel as though an update should be made adjusting the statistics for the "Elite" cards due to their rarity. Elite cards should at the very least compete with the current event's Raid Cards after the event concludes. With that being said, so long as there continues to be a statistical climb on Raid cards and Rewards Cards each event, Elite cards should continually be adjusted as well.

If a "Legends" set was introduced then I feel as though those cards should be managed as I stated for the "Elite" cards above. Yes a new card variety is cool - I like a Legends set that ties in with this game being Legends.

I think continual adjustment of R4 stats is problematic as it implies they may eventually overtake episode cards. However another way to augment this is an ultra rare 'Spark' card that allows you to upgrade an existing Elite R4 card from level 65 to an R5 level 80. A lucky player could upgrade their best R4 or their favorite R4 to R5 status relative to it's R4 hierarchy - I.e Elite Megatron would still be the best card when upgraded out of the existing Elite cards.
