Well, we have skipped two entire tournaments, but as pointed out earlier, this isn't actually uncommon. As pointed out by
I.D.
, Byleth actually had a few tournaments moved up, which seems like they were delayed slightly, potentially meant for a much earlier release than they were.
Currently, we're at 2 skipped tournaments, just like what happened with Byleth, and we still have all those news slots.
But also, if it was delayed, they're not going to tell us, because they never even gave us a promised date for it. If anything, they'll just work on it quietly until it's done.
