<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Flavor of the Month''' or '''FotM''' is an expression that refers to a [[profession]] combination, [[skill]], or [[build]] that is currently very popular in the [[metagame]]. The expression also denotes that the interest is temporary, since the more players use one setup, the more likely others will be to bring direct [[counter]]s. FotM are often named by adding "[[-way]]" to the build's main idea in jest, referring to one of the most infamous FotMs: [["I Will Avenge You!"|IWAY]].<br />
<br />
Because of the mechanics of Guild Wars, if a FotM becomes too popular, it becomes viable to carry counters targeting that one specific build. This will, over time, shift a FotM out of play. However, if a FotM becomes too popular for too long or proves to be too imbalanced, it becomes the target of a [[nerf]] by [[ArenaNet]].<br />
<br />
FotM usually applies to [[PvP]], since generally the only ''counter'' to a PvE build is a nerf by ArenaNet.<br />
