Thanks for the comment.

I don't think Splinterlands is a very competitive game. It's an auto-battle after all.

There definitely should be a place for competition, which is tournaments. But we shouldn't be pretending that the average ranked or brawl player is a "competitive" player.

I think most players just want to field half decent teams and move on with their lives. Battle helper lets you do that.
It's mostly there for casual players so they can play the game at a decent level without investing too much time into strategy.

I would support a battle helper ban from tournaments - that's the reason I added the [NH] tag so that it can be disallowed if the tournament sponsor wants to have a competitive playing field.
