Well at least no one will get offended by an off the cuff comment.
 
Plus someones job might have been put at risk. It truly is magnificent what people are prepared to do to back up their own prejudices.

Good write up.  That Crab match up is just rough and yes the Extra time in a finals makes it even worse since their board state endurance just makes them stronger the longer the game goes on.

its not a retcon. Its a new world. The sooner you stop comparing apples and oranges and enjoy it the happier you will (hopefully) be.

Thank you for writing these. I've read each one so far as well as some other stuff on your blog and it's really helped.

Almost everyone I've spoken to in recent months, including a lot of people that play Scorpion, think the game right now is the most balanced and enjoyable environment we've seen for the LCG. A large part of that is due to the Restricted List pulling Scorpion back into the pack. I'd say the RL is working as intended right now, and the game feels more vibrant and healthy as a result of that.
 

I enjoyed it and it does make a pleasant change from being outmanoeuvred politically all over the place.

FFG posted a new Crane Clan fiction.
Please see the below link:

Personally, I enjoyed the Crane-Scorpion team up at the beginning of the story.  
Also, the Crane Clan is finally getting some story wins so that's new.
