Bring back the 7.4 offer for the next 90 days

Many of us chose to clear 7.4 because we could. We chose not to buy the 10,000 unit offer because there wasn’t a title-based need for r4 champs, we were saving for July 4 or both. Now we’re faced with July 4 deals for TB players that are likely worse than Cyber Weekend 2021 (that’s what happened in 2020 when TB was created) and we missed a deal we would have taken if Kabam had been upfront with players.
Make the 7.4 10,000 unit offer claimable for the next 3 months. You KNEW this title was coming and withheld that information to create artificial desperation. So right by your playerbase, please.

My alt account is TB and I KNOW that if I decide to push it for paragon, I’ll have the 10,000 ready for 7.4.6 completion. My main, which became TB right at the start of 2021, rushed to an easy clear and passed on the offer.
I didn't buy it at the time but in retrospect I might have. I also might have held a T5cc or two that I have used to take champs to rank 3.
I'll get the title eventually. Not sure why people feel obsessed with getting it right away.
If history holds true, all the R4 material that we need is going to be locked for Paragon.
That's basically what happened last year with Cavalier when they brought out Thronebreaker.
Correct me if I'm wrong but iirc they had, at best, for the highest spending, 45% T5CC selectors but that was after you spent 300 dollars.
So if this trend continues, they'll give us one T6BC and T3A after buying the Odin offer 3 times.
Just when I was finally looking forward to get the best deals this year in the highest tier, and then they do this.
My frustration with Kabam stems from the the way they communicate and implement this stuff. It feels shady and a cash grab to be frank.
It's likely that July 4th 2022 will allow Thronebreaker's to get 1/4 (or less) of a R4 rank up material compared to Paragon likely getting full R4 rank up material. But that is to be expected.
Thronebreaker offers have always been about developing your R3. Sure, they have offered some material to get to the Paragon level (R4 rank up materials) in the past, but not to the extent that it is the main driver. It has mainly been about getting more R3s.
Cavalier have always been about developing your 5R5 and 6-star R1/R2. Even prior to Thronebreaker announcement, the offers did not really promote getting R3s.
The materials needed to be Cavalier (5 and 6-stars for Act 6) are made available to Cavalier players, not Uncollected players. Uncollected offers are primarily 4-star based.
It has always been designed this way - you don't easily get the materials you need to attain the next level.
The problem with your analysis is this - roster development for mid-Thronebreaker players is basically window dressing. If you have 20+ r3 champs, getting resources to have 22 doesn’t change the makeup of your roster, because the r2 can still perform most tasks. In that respect, it doesn’t progress your roster at all. It just conserves nominal healing resources. When you’re comparing 6r2 to 6r1 or 5r5 to 5r4, the jump is much more significant, and you’re filling niches that no longer need to be filled.
I’m not too far away from paragon but barring some significant content in the next 6 weeks I won’t get there before the deals. I’m adding multiple r3s to my roster every month through content so spending 18k units on offers purely containing t5cc will not develop my account at all.
