I think my beef with this episode is it was focusing on Applejack and Rainbow Dash’s characters rather than the students. Like, those two fueled the plot and caused the shenanigans to happen. I think I would have liked it a lot more if it had been the students getting overly competitive and causing trouble rather than the teachers :)

You’re allowed your opinion, I’d love to hear more from people having liked it than… what we currently have. Specifically arguments and well-thought paragraphs.
 
I thought it was perfectly fine. I don’t think it’s the best episode this season has had (and there have been some rather choice ones), but I don’t see why people would react so strongly to what would be considered slightly above average any other time. I even saw someone compare it to the reaction to The Last Jedi and now I can’t help but wonder whether people are allowing themselves to get awfully worked up about a kids show about cartoon horses. They can’t nail everything all of the time, but it’s not like this was awful.
 
Hyperbole rots your brain, kids.

@Miss Shy  
Worst thing is that AJ and Dash didn’t learn anything and ended the episode still acting like fools.
 
Also next episode is the best episode this season so faaaaaar
