Summary
 
Very interesting game and fun too…
 
Jink save: I think I made... all but 7 in todays game? which it nearly total different from last week, none..It feels fine to use and there were times today were I was thankful for having it..
 
WIND RIDER: They still need more testing, but I find them useful, might be time to stress test them out and see ant happens..
 
HORNETS: Hornets: 4 for 200 seems good. They hit hard, but are very very fragile if targeted, which is as it should be…
