If it came down to a vote, I am positive that a majority would pick WIND as the least impactful or successful Attribute in the current metagame. WATER got their Mermail, FIRE got their Fire Fist and Fire King, EARTH got Madolche (which get Anjelly on the horizon), LIGHT got Agents and Bujin, and DARK […]
