The Marquee release structure owns bones.
Releasing characters via Marquee event is the best thing to happen to this game. You get the character to 3* for free, you get a chance to test them out with any squad, you get a bunch of mods that yo...

I do enjoy marquee events. But I think I enjoy them because I hate the alternatives or how things used to be. Idk if someone said it - but there is also a practice mode in the events. So it’s a sand box! Yay! But.. the worst part of marquee events are the platoons. Platoons are just terrible.
Love legendaries and am feeling 50/50 on hero journies. Vet farming first time around was the pits.
And here I'll totally agree with you. I like the Marquee structure for the average character, but I do want more legendaries and journeys and so on and so forth. I don't mind the platoon thing, personally, because my guild isn't a hardcore "we must get every star" guild and we're celebrating that we might hit 24 in the next one--but I can see how if someone was in a guild like that, that it'd be frustrating.
Preparing this post, I was surprised by a lot of things that I had forgotten--tournaments, for example, or that the first Marquees were the Krennic and Deathtrooper Special Operations events. I feel like folks tend to conflate the farming method and the release method, and while there are very valid criticisms of single-node hard farms, being critical of the release itself is silly.
(Although I disagree about having a bronzium character, but mostly because I spend my ally points down to 0 every day because there's no point in saving them. It'd be frustrating if characters were put in there that were literally just gatchapon pulls and I was being punished for having followed the established play method before it came out. But whatever, I'd get over it :p )
Tournies were crap. And I can’t imagine the salt if they stayed. Imagine requirements for legendaries that were locked behind tournaments! You got Vet han to 5* but vet chewy still remains unlocked. No RTJ! But that’s a super simplistic approach.
I understand platoons to a point. And they really aren’t totally necessary but that doesn’t mean we should leave things just cause. I’m a big fan of improving any way we can. Even if it’s a small little change. But yea again marquees are way better than any old system we had. But still hopeful there are ways to do things better.
