Think Vlady loves having an opinion that is opposite from everybody else:

Before HW was released, he was singing how WHMs are doomed and will be replaced by ASTs etc etc while the rest of us are trying our best to convince him WHMs are in a good place.
Ironically now that HW is released, while most of you are saying how ASTs require buffs etc etc, he's saying its all sunshine and rainbows over at ASTville.

Just something to consider if anyone of you wanna continue to have a discussion with him.
