Sailing the Strategy Triangle
Episode 93
Tuesday, 13 January, 2026
After coming to port for the holidays, the SS Sparks and Rec is off to sea once more! While many a sailor has been lost to the Bermuda Triangle, only slightly fewer have been swirled away by discussions of the Triangle Framework introduced in today’s episode. The discussion seeks to lay out the fundamental roles of all the classes and where they lie on a triangle in relation to one another. The three points are Aggro, Combo, and Control. Diving deep on this topic fills the majority of the episode with the usual segments rounding things out.
