As many players point out, the meta becomes stale, trite, and predictable when there are long dry spells between patches.

However, fervor is renewed at the release of a new patch. Turning over the new earth seems to always be a time of excitement and curiousity.

My previous opinion of the game was that the game is punishing for people who queue solo, but I've since revised my position - the game is neither punishing nor rewarding for the solo player - the question is this alone "Am I having fun?"

If you can't answer with a yes, it's time to close the program and do something else. Come back in a few months to a refreshed version of the game.
