On March 28, 2018, a blog post was submitted to ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'' by Yapyap, detailing that he had found a [[Forerunner]] artifact called the "Key of Balance", which promptly began speaking to him about the responsibility of balance. Yapyap proceeded to talk with the key and eventually destroyed it, using the key to bring about change. This post was updated by [[Jeff Easterling]] purporting that the post was not authorized by anyone on the Waypoint team, then later again updated noting that the event had also affected ''Halo Wars 2'' game files, with a list of patch notes detailing the limited-time event changes over the weekend. The effects given initially only affected unit balance, but went on to affect leader powers, skirmish, [[Terminus Firefight]], matchmaking, playlist names and the campaign level [[Under the Dark]]. Notably, the changes in particular affected Yapyap's gameplay, giving massive buffs to his units and starting army, culminating in Yapyap being given his own Season.{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/the-yappening|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=The Yappening...}}{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/halo-wars-2-welcome-to-fort-jordan|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Wars 2: Welcome to Fort Jordan}} | On March 28, 2018, a blog post was submitted to ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'' by Yapyap, detailing that he had found a [[Forerunner]] artifact called the "Key of Balance", which promptly began speaking to him about the responsibility of balance.
