Dick suddenly being the one and only worthy opponent in Deathstroke's mind when he has been ignored by his supposed nemesis for a decade is just too fake. Especially when DC had a whole year to lead up to this confrontation but instead of doing that they focused on Batman and Deathstroke or Damian and Deathstroke. People don't want to hear that Dick playing a role in one of Deathstroke's stories - especially Shadow War - would have helped a lot, but it's basically a fact that storytelling works better with a proper lead-up.
Also, most die-hard Deathstroke vs Nightwing fans come from the Titans corner, why would they be happy with Dark Crisis #2?
