Thank you for the response, but why did you edit what I said and respond in some kind of pseudo defense for Hisako having such a setup?
I realize where this thread is located, but it has already been stated in the thread that the discussion of the concepts herein can be extrapolated to the other cast.
I’m not trying to offend, but it’s bad enough when others take leaps in logic to indicate I’m saying something I’m really not, but could you please not edit the content of my response when quoting me to suit your own?
Once again and to clarify, Hisako aside as I actually didn’t mention her, why isn’t such a setup seen as a problem; for anyone in the cast (to be clear as possible)? The way I see it, such setups place an extremely unreasonable situation on the defending player. I’d submit that such setups are less about reading the opponent, and more about stripping them of viable options. For one thing, if the setup covers all those options and it’s a loss for them, and they DON’T KNOW it covers all of them, do you realize how many times they have to experiment with that one setup only to lose before potentially finding something that works?
I realized I am not a very skilled player, and many of you are not only much better than me, but you have better understanding of it. However, this seems much less a read, and more a calculated thing, that actually seems more inclined towards flow-charted play. Again, I could be wrong, and I likely am, as many of you are leaps ahead of me in skill.
I was reading this thread and thinking of some of the recent people who have left/quit, and now I’m starting to wonder if setups like this aren’t a driving force of that. That’s a debilitating place to be, stripped of multiple viable options at once. Sure, there might be a way out, after several failed experiments, but at some point the player is likely to ask themselves, “Is it really reasonable to expect me to deal with this?”
Edit: Oh and please, in the future, don’t edit my response, misquote me, or otherwise misrepresent what I’ve said. Thank you in advance.
