To be sure Aiz's creativity in finding new builds which other players can build on is very valuable to us indeed. The overall tendency this community has for sticking with the familiar strategies can be destructive to our process, which is one of the reasons changes need some time to settle.

That game was terrible tho, doesn't really means much. I think Umeu is refering more to something like this game

I've no idea what assumptions are wrong. For that purpose, I'd try Bow Riders and Cetans first.

I dont think anyone will succeed in convincing me sioux colonial is legitemately competitive. But you may try.
Why would I?

It's not fine.

I just hope DE is not going to implement all of the EP changes. Right now it is a big clusterfuck.
