FAQ
- Is a Clash a bad sign?
- It isn't an automatically bad word. A Clash is opposing branches colliding to trigger moves, replacements, and change, so it can read as a turning point that breaks a stall. Met without preparation, though, the collision and shake-up can land hard.
- How is Clash different from Punishment?
- The grain of the collision differs. Clash is a head-on hit between opposites that produces big moves and replacements; Punishment is small frictions and disputes stacking up. If Clash is one large impact, Punishment reads as minor conflicts accumulating.
