as bad as all this poo poo is, it's got nothing on the delusions of the smash players.

They think the game has a high bar for entry. It's like the emperor's new clothes.

You got a phonebook written by lovecraftian monstrosity? Because The Smash rules are just as long and forever changing every time you look at them because someone got their pride hurt in a videogame.

It's more fun to play the rules as written/sprit of rules metagame in Warhammer 40k.
