Should we ban competitive play?

Ideally? Yes.

Then we can go back to concentrating on having fun with our toy soldiers, and not worrying about "the meta", the latest tournament shenanigans, or other people trying to eek out that extra 0.001% performance from a list as they've decided it determines the size of their e-peen...

LOL, this is the most trollish post i've seen in a while.

"My way to play is the right way, and anyone else is a horrible person."

...have you been reading Martel's posts in the current "When do the Indexes go?" thread? Trust me, the above has nothing on those posts.

Actually it's just a mentality thing:


Competitive players: Okay, the game has changed, how do I win?

Casual players: I refuse to change or alter my expectations, the game is bad.

Because I don't really care about winning. I play to win in game, but I don't feel the need to constantly chase the dragon and have a huge model overturn just to have every last advantage. I enjoy 40k the most when I see a ton of army diversity and people who can pull together a fluffy list and have a bunch of cool minis, particularly older ones. Having to retire huge parts of a collection that I poured time into because GW can't write balanced rules sucks.
