My problems with clash on kamino unknowns
So I get that there is no such thing as event cadence and because COK came every 70 days or so doesn't mean it's going to this time. So the event date is a complete unknown. Here's the problem of l...

It’s funny you guys haven’t realized CG likes to play 2 ways: either very few players have them that were willing to pay at the start, or majority of players have them.
At this point, they’ve already decided that most of the people that want GAS have already farmed and won’t be whaling $$ so they’re gonna make us all wait.
There was a time with malak it turned from the usual 60 days or so to 120 something. This is the same point we are in right now. Don’t expect it in June.
This theory would sound plausible...if it weren't for the fact that Malak went 4 months between 1st and second run.
What it really seems like is this: CG brought back GAS early for Christmas events, and then again to celebrate CW season 7. Now they might be dropping back towards the more "regular" event cadence of every 3 months, which would lead to the event coming back sometime in the next 3 weeks.
You missed the point. It doesn’t matter if the 120 days was between the 1st and 2nd run for malak and now it’s the 3rd and 4th run here. I’m saying CG is all about $$$$ it may have been a lot of people whaled during the 1st run of malak so they tried to prolong their “golden time” of just them having it.
For sure they know a majority of f2p players have the toons necessary for GAS unlock this time around so they will prolong the “golden time” for the whalers as much as they can.
EDIT: oh and your 90 day regular cadence is not in 3 weeks btw. It’s next week. Today is the 83rd day according to swgohevents.
3 weeks is to give a buffer on each side of 90. Sometimes events came back in 100 days, sometimes 77 days, but they usually fell around 3 months.
Besides that point, the first run of an evemt is really for those that spend. A small fraction of smart F2P will unlock the 1st run, but for the majority of F2P the 2nd run is where you unlock. The third run is usually the last time an event like this is important, as it is generally followed closely by the new meta. This is the 4th run.
