Season 5 Arena: Alien Artifact with or without Orb?

Alien Artifact won the poll, so we'll play with this expansion in season 5. Would you like to play with or without the Orb module? Note that it has received many improvements in the last months and is now bug free (AFAIK).

For me AA without Orb is the best way to play - so many interesting strategies and paths that you can follow. Don't feel the need to add the orb.

Do u really think that the game with orb has less interesting strategies?!

I think it is a little harder to get into and not neccesary. Ideally Arena for me should be the simplest, best solution, but that is just my opinion.

I personally love the Orb game, and the improvements galehar has made are terrific. It seems my opinion is far outvoted, though...

I also really like orb, but not for arena. Arena should be fast and focus on base mechanics of game. Imo

I agree! I'm not surprised with the poll result. If anything, I thought it would be worse. Note that there's
a group dedicated to XI and AA expansions.
Although, "base mechanics" you say? It used to be BoW we played on Arena
