Yeah, I had been wondering about the Leader Bonus disk. I have my Revan/Malak team tuned for Malak to go first so as to take out any autotaunt, then Revan can attack the leader with his special. While I don't keep track of all my toons' speeds in my head, I'm very clear that Malak normally goes first, Revan 2nd.
Then this bonus card came along and granted a bunch of bonuses to the leader including +20% speed. When I used it ... Malak still went first. So I was very suspicious of what was going on there. I thought maybe the disk wasn't providing the speed bonus, but it turns out it was providing stat bonuses to the whole squad, not just the leader (which also perfectly explains why Malak would continue to go first for me).
So I knew something was wrong, but now I find it boosted everyone? And I'm going to have to go without that whole-party boost next time. That's going to be a pretty big difference from how my party acted this time.
i still think I'll get better than the Tier 1 crate. Maybe even T4 or t5, since my roster is well above the "recommended" level. But that lack of data disks is extra worrying for me now that I know just how much they boosted my toons.
We'll see!
