REWORK for the Academy. Is it needed or not?

P.S.: I now understand why Wic voted against it, as he's currently promoting HotA, and a balance change in SoD wouldn't benefit him.

:)

I've expressed the idea that the gameplay of SoD shouldn't be changed many times, even before HotA was mentioned. The arguments were roughly the same as they are now.

True, one could say that I was promoting WT back then, but whatever...

However, within such a concept, one would have to explain the fact that new templates were tested in SoD - Mini-Nosta, TDD, Diamond (even if only half of them were used with WT), and even the creation of templates specifically for SoD (Anarchy). And drawing mirror maps for SoD is probably also some kind of cunning plan by Wic.

No, I understand that people tend to judge the motivations of others primarily based on their own, but this path is often further from the truth than it is close to it.
