[QUOTE="oreofox, post: 8089055, member: 6776240"] I guess I am lucky in that I don't really have the power gamer/minmaxer/whateveryouwannacallit player in my games. For the last 2 years, I've switched the ASIs to be closer to how they were in the playtest: +2 from class (usually in the scores tied to the class's save proficiency) and +1 wherever from race. I've only ever had a single mountain dwarf, and that was a fighter (so the armor prof meant nothing anyway). I can see there being a lot more mtn dwarves in AL from those who go on the internet looking for guides on how to build a powerhouse. I have played in games with the more power-oriented players, so I typically chose a race who gave a +2 (or the +1 from subrace) to my class's primary stat. So in the rare case I get to play again, this could be nice and open up other combos. Variant human and half-elves will still be dominant. If this change means seeing more dwarves being made, then I think it is a good change. And as I said previously in this thread, if this makes it where there will be more tieflings who aren't warlocks, more non-rogue halflings, half-orcs that aren't barbarians, then it's a net bonus. Would be nice to see a tiefling druid for once. [/QUOTE]
