People shouldn't call her a troll for the tea thing, that was her being playful, but even before I read the replies I knew the ticket thing would be mentioned soon, I can't see any reason why she did that.

Some say she doesn't do anything, like she gets captured by Nightmare Moon offscreen, they say doesn't do anything against Discord (which isn't true, if she hadn't sent Twilight her letters back he would have won), and didn't do anything against Sombra either, but remember she defeated Nightmare Moon, Discord, and Sombra in the past. Also of note she didn't try to save Rarity in Sonic Rainboom, but she probably thought the Wonderbolts would and people have argued by the time they were knocked out it was too late for her to do anything, I can't see her flying as fast as Rainbow Dash somehow or use levitation from that distance

Others think the whole "test" thing for Twilight when defending the Crystal Empire from King Sombra, but Celestia was confident Twilight would succeed. Others criticize her for banishing Luna/Nightmare Moon rather than trying to get Luna back. Well, with only half the Elements' power she couldn't destroy the evil of Nightmare Moon, and she did try to reason with her, the episode said so.

Of course, she's also gained even more hate for turning Twilight into an alicorn.

Also in the comics, those who read Issue 8 complained that she didn't fight the Nightmare Forces at all, despite being there, it was Luna who defeated the Nightmare Forces and Spike and the other Mane 5 who restored Rarity and destroyed Nightmare Moon (though Celestia and Luna did help with that if you look closely). Overlooking her epic battle alongside Spike in Issue 4.
