New TB info: MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR Complaints
WHAT THE ACTUAL HECK CG? R9 minimum to just play phase 5 and phase 6?? I don’t know 1 person (not even Mr whale himself ahnald) who has a full r9 team. It’s a complete waste. Not to mention extremely ...

Okay, I'm going to say I was wrong in my pre-TB criticisms about required relic levels.
From what I had read before, I honestly thought you could only pick one path for one TB period. This led to the logical conclusion that I'd have nothing to do on days 4-6.
This is obviously not the case given that we can work on multiple paths simultaneously. While I'm not at all sure how this can be squared with CG's initial communication about ability to select different paths (you can't). Although you can choose to emphasize one path over others, this is exactly the same as the way that we could select to emphasize bottom or middle in Geo TBs. But that would be a critique of how the TB was described to us, not what the TB actually is.
Given how this TB actually functions, I've got things to do at least through day5. If there's nothing to do on day6 (and this isn't guaranteed) I'll only need r8 toons, not r9 toons, to play all the way through day6.
This is a huge difference in accessibility compared to what appeared to be the case before the RotE was released.
I'm relieved that we're not forced to play only one track per TB, and I can see myself at not much over 9M as ready to play all special missions through p3 in as little as 4 months, and to have at least one r8 squad for each path in the same amount of time, if not less.
I wanted to play the new content, and to not have to work for long before I was able to attempt new things every day. I think it's clear after playing this that I have exactly that. I do not mind at all that it will be a long, long time before I'm fielding full r9 squads in p5 and p6.
(Of course it wouldn't even be THAT long if you stopped releasing new toons that I have to collect, but darn you, you keep doing that...)
Thanks again for your work, and while I still disagree with some things (36 hour phases were really worse than 24 hour phases?) the overwhelmingly negative reaction was focussed on the accessibility of new content to play. Given that we are not locked out of playing new content after day 3, I think most people, if they had the chance to write their criticisms over again, would write something different.
I know I certainly would.

Spoiler
In fairness to myself, after providing my critique (which was, like most, scathing about requiring all-r8 as soon as day4) I did add another post that said that this TB wouldn't be as bad as all that if we could start in one track then move to another so we weren't selecting ONLY LS or ONLY Mixed or ONLY DS for a single TB.
