@Smiley, While I appreciate that you are an advocate for new players, and I applaud you for that but, you seem to often lump easy to learn with easy to play.
This game has never and should never be easy to play, in my opinion. That's part of why I think most of us play it. Pokemon is easy to learn and easy to play, if that's what we wanted instead.
Our game is much more like chess then checkers. Checkers is easy to learn and easy to play. Chess is also easy to learn. There are only 20 possible opening moves after all, but chess can take years or even a lifetime to master.
Please, please stop confusing easy to learn with easy to play.
