As someone who's always not completely understood how RBY works, this was really informative and helpful. Almost makes me want to start playing it. Almost. I do think a conclusion to wrap up the major points would've been nice, especially considering how much information was actually given here. But nonetheless, another great article and informative read.

Good stuff p2. As someone new to the tier, I would have liked more analysis such as how the substitute move change affects the current meta. Either way, I really appreciate it.
