As such, I make this known: If you make a Mercury guide within 48 hours of his release, you better be prepared to deal with me.
While I am usually lenient, I will not be with these guides and I never am. I will not hesitate to tell someone off and show my distaste in a bad guide. And they will come... they always do.
For those of you who are intent on making a guide, I ask that you spend time learning the God, take the time to make a quality guide, and publish it with the intent of showing people some basics on playing the God (in this case Mercury).
I will NOT tolerate build-only guides. They are useless.
BEWARE THE NATSU MISSILE, BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL READY TO LAUNCH!
I did not even suggest that I learned nothing for you. So take your argue-happy *** and SHUT IT!
I am not in the mood to deal with it. Do not even think about testing me today.
Uh, the only difference between this blog post and the last one is the detail. His message is virtually the same no matter how you look at it.
Don't make half-***ed release-day guides without investing the time to research the god first.
From this post, he seems resigned to the fact that if the guide is informative on the basics, and actually has effort put into it, then it is a useful guide (as opposed to every "release-guide" being terrible). Granted, most (and sometimes all) "release-guides" are terrible, I have never argued that. However, there is a niche that these guides fulfill, and I don't want to see an attempted eradication of them because they can be beneficial if effort is put into them. But hell, I'll be the first to downvote a guide that is released simply to be the first. (Yes I'll even beat you to it, Natsu! The powers of cheesecake are no match for Red Velvet!)
