Bottom post of the previous page:

Because we had severe problems with managing the destructive scaling of antagonists, and people won't stop abusing all the worst combinations to cause maximum damage in the first 5 minutes of the round.

I would have preferred not to but I really don't believe we had a choice.

We were trying to do the restrictions in a way taht seems less gamey and more realistic.

The idea of you progressing is what eventually ended up being.

I agree but I think the implementation is lackluster and has lacked any big fixes, redesigns, or polishing.
