"The Art of Strategy"

Yes, usually unknown players leave after two defeats, and it's always different players, so a blacklist won't help... I think it's unfair to leave after two losses – they might as well not have registered in the first place. Regarding the rules, it says that you can jump to any zone using astral gates, except for the starting zone; we won't change the regulations now. As far as I remember, it has always been this way... If there's no way to use astral gates, but you can enter a zone through a shifted guard, you shouldn't do that; you have to break through.
