@HowlingMines Ayo?

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@PVGTCG I think LSS needs to stop doing announcements without full details and be shocked when the community is upset when we dont see the full picture of a change because they keep it behind closed doors.

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@n3ardeath It has buttons, my king.

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

After watching Worlds/Calling, I think its time to talk about the philosophy of defensive cards/generic slop cards. Between the 16 players, there were 68 generic 0 for 4 defense reactions, 22 Sigil of Solace, 13 Fiddlers. Every hero is either slop or over the top. What a bore.

@TheLazEDog My favorite top 80th worlds player.

@JakeVandergriff @WetTheSystemFAB @iJynxed Its 100% hyperbolic in this situation but we're on the internet and its the best way to make a point. If I make a bland blank statement of "too much life gain" it would get zero traction. Gotta make sure to emphasize the point.

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@WetTheSystemFAB @iJynxed Yeah, I'll do a better job of coming with numerical data to show my thoughts on this.

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@n3ardeath Show me your Jarl list right now mister Josh Lind, im watching you

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@n3ardeath 1400 players and you're saying only 100 in day 2 of Worlds brought anti slop decks.

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@PVGTCG You know, im at that point. I agree. Fuck it, unban tipples. Fuck slop deck.

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@iJynxed @WetTheSystemFAB Yeah, thats on me. Gravy/Bolyn def skewing the data. The 3 9 stauch Jarls also lol

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@twintersplin What if we make it 9 generics and unban cyb (this is a joke)

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@twintersplin I would use a random calling next year in Europe to test a 12 - 15 limit generic calling with more than 6 months of lead time so players know of a special rule case calling and use the reception of that calling to design a new generic philosophy going forward.

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@JakeVandergriff I think over the last year, we've seen the decline in power/constituency of hero identity that has created this delta. When heroes were strong, the less generic slop was in the field. Its a mixture of power level and direction the game has taken. IE Malice/Vis

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@JakeVandergriff When every hero identity is either slop or beats slop, we have a bigger issue. I dont think a fiddlers ban would do much outside maybe fatigue Jarl. Alot of decks would still default to slop since slop cards are just inherently the strongest thing you could be doing currently.

@RhealxDoyle as the prophecy foretold

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

My prediction for Worlds meta

[Taylor Crawford @HelpMeJace]

@RhealxDoyle Huntsman is like a roach. No matter the meta, no matter the circumstances, hes just good and will find a way to live and be 55% for the event and never top 8.
