User:Bpat

I'm bpat and I play Insane difficulty a lot. I also write guides sometimes.

Accomplishments

• 14 AoA Insane wins (three pre-1.2) and EoR Insane wins with all three Tinker classes. Winners table link.
• Wrote lots of ToME guides.
• Helped rework Mindslayer for patch 1.2.
• Other design changes such as Superiority and Warcries buffs
• Hopefully more design changes in upcoming patches!
• Probably somewhat responsible for Draconic Will having a fixed cooldown after repeatedly abusing its synergy with Timeless.

List of helpful guides

• Beginner's Guide. If you're new, read this first.
• Cath's Big F-ing Guide. General guide series. More parts will be added in the future.
