I wish. Instead it’s one of the worst examples of a subclass just not delivering on its premise.
The powercreep of options that…aren’t any stronger than the power curve of the PHB?
I mean don’t get me wrong, Moon Druids are way too restricted to actually feel like the thing they’re doing, and the whole subclass feels like it just should be how wild shape works, and the idea that it’s even especially powerful at all is silly to me.

... I mean, to be honest, circle of wildfire looks fun. But not as much fun as Star!
After seeing it in play, one of the benefit of the Star subclass is that while it can be played with great subtlety and skill - almost like a wizard - it can also be played in a simple but still effective, "pew pew" style. And for some players, classes like this are very helpful.

I decline to vote. Only the boring cliches remain.

I mean, these aren't really circles I have any preference for, or even much like for either. Really sad to see Stars get dogpiled right at the end. I was sincerely hoping it would win if Wildfire didn't.
But we can at least make it so ONE non-PHB option wins one of these things.

It's a bummer that Stars didn't beat out Shepherd...I could have had my three favorites all in the top three! Ah well. I'll be happy with whichever option wins now; I'll be upvoting the highest score and downvoting the lowest so as to hasten the next round of Survivor.
Already done.

It wouldn't be Sheperd. It's cliched and annoying at the same time. Summons slow down combat and are ineffective for anything apart from getting in the way.

Again, as others have said, doesn't count. Winning by default because nothing was in the PHB is a pretty clear and obvious disqualifier.

Whatever floats ya'll's boat, I guess. I still think it counts, but it's not something I'm all that concerned about. "PHB or non-PHB" is as good of a reason to vote as any other.

Stars was seen as the threat to their favorite. Strategic voting often means that some of the best and brightest candidates are snuffed out early.
