Month in Review: March 2022

Month in Review: February 2022

Before we start, I must admit that I wrote the draft of this article a week in advance. Between then and now, a lot has happened in the world, and I feel the need to at least speak out about it.

Monthly Poll: December 2021

In line with tradition, the last month of the year sees me doing a tournament-style poll with the community. In previous tournaments, we have determined the best scenario in the game and the best hero in the game. For 2021, I had little inspiration for what to do until I found a recommendation from an … Continue reading Monthly Poll: December 2021 →

Month in Review: November 2021

While October was a relatively slow month, November had an article nearly every 2 days! I was compensating a bit but also discovered that I had a bit more time to work on articles during the week.
