    Likely he got a warning after a string of unwarranted and retaliative downvotes on the Q&A thread.

    His last edit, around day and a half ago said "in two days"... so soon, I guess?

    I wanted to vote, but felt a bit overwhelmed by the sheer size of the cast. I tip my hats to those who did vote and wait in anticipation of the results.

    One thing I am curious about is the periodic buffs...will that shift things, its an extreme example, but a buffed Bagman is just 1 to the 0 power...which is 1, while a buffed OBW HURTS. some characters scale better than others, others don't scale at all beyond health (current Colossus event is proof).

    The Moonstone changes put me on edge, dare I open a slot for her again and level her up? Her synergy with say Patch, can't be denied.

    Worst that could happen if you roster her, is increased buyback if you dislike her.

    to me they made her black like a lite version of loki's black. its a little different in that you can take attack as well (would be nice if loki had that - that is nails against ninja) and its a little cheaper, but will only take max 3, where loki can take all (which is huge when against cmags/falcon). her purple is still nearly useless in utility - very small percentage of usefulness.

    If her purple was manual, it would make her an amazing character to use.

    sure - make her purple like QS black and she's immediately great. conditional powerful red, board manipulator and special tile stealer. just a good black on a decent ** makes her loads more useful. I'm not adding her because I'm well past needing another ** but she would have been much more useful in my * to ** transition with these changes. she was on my first ** team with daken and ares and I remember the matches just being races to red and yellow and later (when I got it covered), green.

    With 2* essentials being the norm, i have a feeling when this change goes live, it will be her turn to be an essential.

    I'll try to have something up to start today. Work and personal life have been somewhat demanding the past few days.

    I guess my thing is Loki's black is a bit expensive for what you get, with her, it would be easy to keep stepping with Patch.
