Standards for Reasons to Pick
- This section is intended to help new players and those looking to switch characters to have idea if they would like a given character.
- Many of the points made will be subjective and avoiding objective comparisons between characters is recommended.
- No more than 3-5 bullet points and preferably one, but not more than 2, sentences per bullet. Try to keep it short and to the point.
- It is perfectly valid to have one point listed as both a reason to play and a reason to avoid. For example, high execution requirements may attract some players to a character and make others avoid the character.
