Here they state the armor is for the top 100 players and you won't be able to get it anywhere else other than top 100. Pretty much spelled out.

There are many more blog posts similar to this one that clearly spell out that these rewards are for people that get top 100.

Maybe you should try and do some research before calling people out. You are pretty much the only one who is denying that SE has said that these rewards are only for top 100 ranking players of those seasons they are offered.
If the White Raven thread is any indicator of the general sentiment towards promises made by the Devs then don't bother using that argument. If the desire for glamour is there for people they'll disregard any tangible evidence towards the promise as long as the trophy can become available to them.

Honestly considering they did say those are for the Top 100 players then I will have to agree with others defending this decision. The promise itself was made and it doesn't matter how much time goes by between its inception and its end, the devs promised to keep it locked behind some kind of effort and. Don't get me wrong, I do think some of the more competitive Feast rewards are neat and I would love to have myself but I will acknowledge that if I don't put in the effort to get them then I shouldn't hold out for Devs to turn their backs on those who did for my own gratification.

I would honestly rather they fix the broken PvP system and how many people tend to pull Alts and such into the Top 100 rather than just going free for all. I think thats the main issue overall with competitive Feast at the moment outside of the gutted rework of PvP that failed to draw in any kind of tangible crowd. Anyways as it stands the Devs will eventually go back on their word as they have multiple times, not a matter of "if" but of "when".
