I am pretty excited about the update to alliance raid queue requirements.
That being said, I am wondering how it will turn out in practice. It should significantly increase the odds of getting a non-CT instance, but at the same time Crystal Tower is the most universally "unlocked" raid series (being the only one that is MSQ required) so I have a feeling you are still going to be likelier to get CT compared to other specific possibilities, even if it's less likely to get CT overall.
What I am worried about happening next, though, would be people simply choosing to not unlock later raid series. You could set up a system like expert roulette that requires you to have available duties unlocked, but you'd probably have to set it based on MSQ progress and not level, since a lot of players (particularly those on Road to 80 worlds) will very quickly overlevel the MSQ.
