Trump demands that Walmart “EAT THE TARIFFS” and not raise prices

I dont like to be negative about the game because i believe we are genuinely blessed to have such an active community after over 20 years in every single front, however.. Game balance has never ever been as bad as it now. Power creep on civs is making the game incredibly hard to play/ enjoy. Pathing is at an all time disastrous. Monk balance is not at all what most pros have been advocating for a while now. And every time a tournament comes there's a new patch with new bugs (some that never get adress in due time like monaspa bug) and new issues. On top of that I get messages from my followers and viewers telling me how they quit the game for a while because of team game system (queues, toxicity, exploitable bugs, map pools) or facing the same issues as pros like pathfinding and such. I appreciate that we do have a dev team that keeps the game running and adapting, but lately, and i dont wanna be harsh, but lately the balance has been awful. Unfortunately no other ways to describe it. Im going to tell you something personal, I was very very very reluctant to practice for warlords because every practice game would be done after some horrible pathing episode, or simply a civ power creep. I really hope we can find our sweet balance spot again and the game becomes enjoyable for everyone. I absolutely love aoe2 and hope to see nothing if not growth and health for the game!
