It's more important to master the cards you're holding than to complain about the ones your opponents were dealt.

Behind the line

What it means

Our interpretation.

Grimsley uses a card-playing comparison to distinguish control from complaint. The advice values making decisions with the resources already available. The game originally released in Japan in 2010; this entry presents its English wording without claiming it appeared in that original edition.
