So it's basically an even more player friendly version of what Apex, Paladins, Smite etc offers in their loot box system.
And hey, if I can get these drops instead of more time boosters wasting a slot on battlepasses I'll take it.
As long as the table of what they have is visible to the player and they stop you from buying more if you have everything, I'm cool with it.
All correct, the table is there, you have the exact same chance of getting anything you don't own from the Drop, and if you somehow manage to get everything you will not be able to purchase the Rogue Supply Drop.
How did we go from earning reputation/match and purchasing banners/avatars with the weekly store update using rep to this?
Don't make promises if you can't keep them, period.

Hey there! How many matches have you played? A few weeks is a considerable amount of time but you should earn enough Reputation for an unlock within this time frame if you are playing somewhat regularly.
This game is free to play and we use this model to avoid things like "loot box mechanics" to ensure we provide options for folks who want quick unlocks and for those who want to put in time to earn something.
Remember each level gives you 250 so earning those along with pushing your daily contracts will earn you a decent amount over time.
Look I'm all for more things to spend rep on but the previous weekly avatar/banner in store for rep and rep/match was working out, why ditch that and resort to loot boxes? Bring rep/match back!

This particular statement was made almost 18 months ago now and Rogue Company is a very different game than it was at that time. We ran the system as you point out for many months and we don't agree it was working unfortunately. I'd also point out we had the same problem 18 months ago, folks had nothing to spend their Rep on.
This should help alleviate that problem.
