I assume you guys have also done the maths, and that's how you came up with the 70-80 hours estimate. Players looking at the PTB also tried to calculate how much time it would realistically take to complete all the challenges, taking into account things like disconnects, waiting times, matches generally not going according to plan etc. and concluded that the time taken would be 100 hours at a minimum.

I think the thing that's puzzling most people (@Boosted_Dwight included, from the little interaction I've had with him about it) is where that discrepancy comes in. Would it be possible to shed a bit more like on how the 70-80 hours figure was reached? Is there something that we didn't take into account in our calculations, either because we missed it or because we simply don't have enough information yet?

I'm in the same boat, I was super hopeful about this update until all these questions started to be raised. I would love to think that there's something I'm just not seeing that might alleviate the worry a bit.
