At first I thought Zeldor was using reverse psychology to argue just for a Luck buff, not a Misf nerf.
What a strange world we live in.
Though Edi, arguing Misf 3 doesn't really work, it's rarely taken. The 80 points from Misf 2 aren't going to offset a knight attack on turn 3, nothing will.
But I'm not arguing a point, those who take the Misfortune are taking a
calculated risk that with current game mechanics, they are getting a measurably better long term benefit with O3/Mis2, than with T2/L3.
If you can't stomach that risk, then go even scales, no one is holding a gun to your head.
