K, your view is very interesting. I don't think we can reduce this to a factual disagreement since it's very much about taste and preference of players. So clearly there's no black and white here
I guess a lot of ppl share my feelings towards gem gens as contributing to significantly raise end game MM. Perhaps in small games they can be ok, but certainly not for moderate to large ones. It’s a very delicate balance but for now I think I’d rather go w/o them.
