In my opinion, you shouldn't take or give auto-wins!
The negative consequences have been confirmed by personal experience.
1. When you know what the auto-win will be, you'll lose concentration, and this will become a habit over time – then it will be very difficult to adapt in Tournaments that go beyond local rules.
2. You'll never learn to calculate the outcome of a battle before it begins, the number of monsters, the size of the stack (!), the probability of morale, etc. This is a step towards a higher level of skill in the game.
3. When you give an auto-win, you psychologically relax again and expect a response – this shouldn't happen. If the game is more for fun, then it's a different story.
4. If I take an auto-win, then I can't consider the victory to be complete: smile50:
P.S. I still give auto-wins, and I try not to take them, even when they are offered – it's very difficult at first, but then it becomes beneficial :)
Darth – about the poll – I wanted to create one, but I couldn't find how: confused:
