The core problem seems to remain: The are not good at playing their own gain, the stream so often show that fact.
Makes me sort of dread Tactition mode.
One HUGE advantage of holding it off until EE was that they were able to see how the battles went and make adjustments for how they could be tougher.
Now? I am scared they will be significantly less creative (Heck I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't include a single new enemy in it).
THEN again the sheer number of fights in tactition mode that involved unfair ambushes.
