What each Dispatch covers
Every Dispatch summarizes creator takes, explains what StarGuide changed in response, and links that day's update back to specific characters, builds, pairings, rotations, or investment calls. That gives readers a dated, linkable archive of patch-by-patch reasoning instead of only the final state on static character pages.
