No offence, but History of False God Farming is indeed the cutest idea but the least useful too. Wiki is supposed to help newbies and IMO this is not achieved via storytelling, but via Catatitans, RNG & SoFre submissions. Furthermore, I find Writer #2 hilarious and not dissapointing at all! ;D
However, the truth is there is not a single Writer submission with a truly serious conversation between FGs, each one is either romance or comedy or both (ecxept for #4, which is a bit more serious than the rest).

I am not sure if you are correct. The jump to beating FGs is a large step for many players. There are lots of decks that are handed to players to let them jump the gap but this avoids the lesson of how to beat an FG like opponent. Showing the history of successful attempts and why they were successful can be used to learn how to adapt to changes in the player vs FG metagame.

 The problem here is that the newbies are not going to learn anything at all from this arcticle. Unfortunately, they are going to copy/paste those decks and to use them not only against FG, but as PvP2 or arena decks (and seriously, the last type of deck I want to encounter at PvP2 or Gold/Plat arenas is another Poisondial, Instosis etc. or variations of these decks). Furthermore, it encourages broken-card deckbuilding rather than creative deckbuilding, since each deck it advertises expoits AI bugs at best or uses broken cards at worst, like SoG, SoSac or Sundial. The forum expert who made this article probably had the best intentions, however he/she accidentaly made another advertisment for broken cards and broken decks... :(

What problem is there with exploiting the AI, or with using cards that are especially good against extra-powerful opponents (sundial stops all creature damage, sosac inverts damage)?

I can accept exploiting the AI (though it would be nice not to overdo it) but yes, I have a serious problem with "using cards that are especially good against extra-powerful opponents", as you say. Broken cards just shouldn't exists and shouldn't be used for any reason. Even against FG and Gold/Plat arenas there can be found non-broken ways to make it. Furthermore, if those broken cards/decks remained ONLY in FG farming it could be acceptable, but since nothing prevents someone to troll PvP or Arena with an Instosis, Poisondial etc. deck, the last thing we should do is to advertise those (especially if this advertisment comes with comments of how broken this card was/is and how much it was nerfed). I have a problem with advertising broken decks in the community-recommended decks section, I have a problem with advertising broken decks at chat and I have a problem with advertising broken decks in wiki.
If you don't like my opinion, that's fine. I also don't like the broken Ghostmares, Disco-BH or SoF-based decks of yours (and I am not reffering to Cheesy111 right now)...
