[2022] Why is the Hulkbuster release method worse than the old character blitz releases?

Why is it that people hate the Hulkbuster release method so much? It seems that for anyone that isn’t in the top 1% on the Blitz leaderboards, the Hulkbuster method is about the same or better as when 3 star unlock characters were released with two 3 day character blitzes.

With the character blitz method, if you weren’t in the top 20% you would’t get the unlock. If you were in the top 2% - 20% you’d get the unlock but only at 3 stars.

I ended the Black Widow blitz in the 11-20% reward tier. Under the old method, I would have ended up with a 3 star Hulkbuster. I’m on track to end up with 4 stars on him.

Is it just that Content Creators and the loudest voices in communities like Reddit are in the top 1% and they are setting the tone that everyone else just echos?
