Not having currency doesn't really hurt the Colony much, but having one does help them a lot as it will solidify their place among the sentient races along with unifying the various populace among them.

Wait until she repeats letters to lengthen her words, or use too much exclamation points...

Or maybe scarier, have you had an Overbearing Asian Mom breathing down your neck? I heard it was so scary, they'll suck the life out of you

It's not just about Anthony being a Mythic Monster, it's about Anthony having The Call and also a huge freaking Ant Colony.The Legion are racist and pessimistic, but for good reasons. Just that they are stubborn and inflexible.While the Golgari are just being prideful and hates the Colony for beating their fellow Golgaris and their plans not going through.

No, I think it more because of a mixture of different factors, other than the fact that he's crazy, he's got the all of these Altar stuff that basically floods Anthony with the Colony's Will. Imagine getting continually blasted with their thoughts? But it's also a good protection, the might of millions against a single trained Brathian. Plus the fact that Anthony's pretty doting on the ants and his pets.

And eventually, it'll be "To Infinity, and Beyond!"

Or more like, Descending. Am I right or am I right, boys? ......ok, I'll leave...

And a small note attached at the back saying, 'Ignore Brilliant's shenanigans, as her group are more or less careful and are just dragged to do dangerous experiments due to her.'

Don't tell me, the spaces in between are there not because she slowed down, but because each of them represents a word in her conversation with Crinis....?

There are no fifth stratum yet, Anthony said there might be soon

I will kill you with Kindness! I will stuff your throat with delicacies, cover your face with kisses, suffocate your body with hugs and cuddles, stab your heart with praises and affirmation, and fill your mind with nothing but a deadly dose of happiness! Haha...hahahaha.....muahahahahaha!!!!

Does that regenerate mana? I don't remember it regenerating mana though, only stamina, healing glands, brain juice and some altar energy.

Anthony has mana draining legs mutation, external mana manipulation to suck up the ambient mana, and lastly a Wave

Maybe about Evolution Sleep, it becomes more apparent that higher tier evolution takes longer to finish.

Modifying the ball is illegal, but encasing the ball in reinforced earth isn't. It's like when he enveloped the ball in wind mana, covering the ball in any substance is within the rules.

But there has never been a mention of ants taking a dumpy, nor any monster for that matter(or maybe I missed it?)..... I've always thought that due to the biomass system, monsters never took a dump. Is this finally the time we see ants other than Anthony(And Leeroy, Vibrant, plus Brilliant) showing their shameful sides!

First time, he broke the goal which violates the rules. Second time, he isn't touching the ball physically, so it doesn't count.

And so begins the formation of the Winged Ant Brigade+

While that is true, you seem to have forgotten the fact that Vibrant's "small" elite company is now larger than what it has been at the start. The fact that Leeroy's Immortal Legion are maybe in the thousands mean that Champion's and other leader-like figures would eventually grow larger and complex than it initially was. Solant's ideology require a bigger and much more capable information collecting and analyzing infrastructure to support it, like how Brilliant's research into gates are currently a resource sink to the Colony. Factions have already formed in the Colony and other talented ants will eventually show up, just like how Smithant created ant armor and how Michaelangelant(Or someant) upped the Colony's decorations. It's just the question if they were born in the wrong Era or become a leading figure in their history.
