Below is a post sent on Duelyst Official to Thanatos, past Discord owner and one of the OG Duelyst community manager:

hello @thanatos.noa, last year we have launched Duelyst: Blitz, that is mobile version of Duelyst, which was highly requested by the community. when it was released, @t2k5 refused to inform the community about it, and even stating "it could be malware" and "it came out of nowhere".

now, when it became most popular version through really hard work on optimization and advertising (everything self funded), the criterias have changed, t2k5 says: "it's not a popularity contest", so is not willing to give any exposure.

on Saturday there will be $300 prize tournament (3rd edition), but due to personal bias of @t2k5 , he is not willing to assign a fair place to inform the community. what is this discord for then? for "everyone" pings of physical board game sale?

as opposed to your initial goal of "supporting open conversation for all Duelyst", current owner is not only NOT doing that, but actively suppressing it. no one will be willing to spend thousands of dollars on advertising Duelyst, if they are being treated this way. this is actively taking away the chances of further development of Duelyst due to personal opinions.

@thanatos.noa i'd like to ask you to look on it from neutral perspective and influence the current state, because i don't think anyone else can do it.

thanks for your hard work and building this community ground up.
