Manaranks Updated 10.28.2016

I know that the meta analysis amounts to more than winrates but I also think it's pretty absurd that Cassyva is not #2 behind Reva; so long as Reva remains powerful, so too will Cassyva with her heals/removal/ability to manipulate where the enemy can safely stand.

Also, maybe I'm missing it, but it seems individual players' ratings of archetypes are not shown, only the averages. I consider this to be less helpful than showing the individual players analyses; I trust the advice of some players over others (not for any personal reason) and one only needs briefly glance at a past manaranks to know that the pros often vary wildly.

"So, we'll be updating EVERY 7th and 21st except for this upcoming 7th because this update is only a week away from it, and we've already seen patch notes and know there will be no changes."

My last point is that this statement completely disregards the November season cards. They could have little effect on the meta but it's possible their introduction will change which generals/factions are favored; one only needs to see Decimus and understand how important Spelljammer is to what consistency Songhai has to know that it could at the very least change lists up and waiting until November 21st is almost a full month from now. I think if managlow wants to restore their image from outdated and inconsistent, the rankings should be updated as soon as the rating players have had opportunities to exercise the new cards. I hope it's understood that I come from a position of wanting managlow to flourish and that that's why I've made the critiques I have; I absolutely appreciate and adore the effort everyone puts into these analyses and do not mean to trivialize the effort behind them, but if managlow sleeps on Duelyst's small changes, a competitor may repossess your audience.
