Okay I’ve been seeing a lot of posts across social media platforms about MC’s recent behaviour with Sylus and how it’s caused quite the debate, so here’s my unbiased opinion as a Zayne girlie.
I think the main problem here that happened was that in the last few cards like grassland romance, lost oasis and the boxing one (sorry I forgot the name), MC and Sylus had been pretty soft with each other when compared to the recent two cards that came out. This sudden shift of dynamic I feel threw some people off because one moment MC and Sylus are hugging and getting engaged (kind of), and the other moment she is okay with setting him up as bait to another woman and refusing to treat his wounds (searing touch).
Now personally, enemies to lovers is not my favoured choice of romance tropes (evidently cuz I’m a Zayne girlie) but I feel like the extreme change of situations is slightly off putting. Even I was surprised by just how dismissive MC was of Sylus in searing touch.
This does not mean that players start overreacting and sending mails to infold asking a change in MC’s character! That is absolutely wrong and will horribly impact the storyline they’ve set. Even if I think that MC was a little too distant in searing touch, she by no means owes shit to anyone! Sylus was RUDE AF in the beginning and if I were to put myself in her shoes, I’d seriously get the man arrested. She’s keeping his identity and life a secret, and being cooperative. I think that’s progress enough.
We’re all allowed to have our own opinions on the matter and each person’s views matter! But guys let’s have some patience and trust infold, because they would never fuck up a character as popular as Sylus, nor his storyline. We barely know anything about the dude. Just because he’s hot doesn’t mean he’s gonna be completely right.
So let’s not fight and promote love and patience🫶 Sylus and MC have a long way to go, so in my unbiased opinion I’d request all the sylus girlies to just wait a little until his myth pair cards come out! Sending everyone love🩷
