Argument

Talking Points

Columns and arguments. Where the magazine says what it thinks about the state of the game rather than reporting what happened in it. Of these, 25 sit in the German tree of the archive and 3 in the English one. The newest of them is “What people mean when they call a player “system-proof””, from Aug 4, 2026.

What this section is for

This is the part of the site that argues. Columns, responses and the occasional complaint: pages where the magazine says what it thinks instead of describing what happened. They are signed, they are dated, and they are kept even when a later season made them look foolish, because quietly deleting an opinion is a way of pretending you never held it.

Opinion here still has to clear the same bar as everything else. A number in a column comes from a source and is linked; an argument that depends on a claim we cannot show is not published. What separates these pages from the rest of the site is the conclusion, not the standard of evidence underneath it.

Disagreement is welcome and is handled in public. A reply that identifies a factual error gets the page corrected with a note at the foot; a reply that disagrees with the judgement gets read, and sometimes gets its own page. Either way the original text stays where it was, rather than being edited into agreement after the fact.
