===Season 1: Blessing in Disguise===
+
*{{BetaSeason|1#Election Results}}
Finishing in third in their division with a record of 47-52 after a valiant effort in the [[Season 1|first Blaseball season]], the Breath Mints did not foresee how the first round of Blessings would alter their team forever.  
+
**The Breath Mints won the '''{{BetaSeason|1#Blessings|Max Out Pitcher}}''' blessing, maximizing the pitching stats of [[Polkadot Patterson]].
 +
**The [[Baltimore Crabs]] then won the '''{{BetaSeason|1#Blessings|Steal Best Pitcher}}''' blessing, stealing Patterson from the Breath Mints and sending back [[Winnie Hess]] in exchange.
 +
**A '''{{BetaSeason|1#Mystery Blessings|Mystery Improvement}}''' also blessed Hess, improving their pitching from {{Star Change|0|2.5}}.
  
Successfully winning the Max Out Pitcher Blessing, they saw one of their two beloved PolkaDots, [[PolkaDot Patterson]], undergo a magical transformation from zero stars to five stars. The team and their fans were overjoyed. But this was not to last. The [[Baltimore Crabs]] won the Steal Best Pitcher Blessing, and promptly stole the now-superior PolkaDot, sending in exchange their own zero-star pitcher [[Winnie Hess]].
+
*{{BetaSeason|2#Election Results}}
 +
**The Breath Mints were one of 4 teams affected by the '''{{BetaSeason|2#Decrees|Fourth Strike}}''' decree, granting them a fourth strike for the following season.
 +
**The Breath Mints won the '''{{BetaSeason|2#Blessings|Wind Sprints}}''' blessing, improving baserunning by 15%.  
 +
**The Breath Mints also won the '''{{BetaSeason|2#Blessings|Literal Arm Cannon}}''' blessing, maximizing the pitching stats of [[Axel Trololol]].
  
Now free from the stinky air of the [[Crabitat]], Hess filled their lungs with fresh, fresh air and exhaled, for the first time in over 100 days, fresh breath. The minty aroma of Kansas City revealed Winnie's true potential, transforming them from a zero to a 2.5 star pitcher - the locker-room leader the Mints needed to face season two with renewed vigor.
+
*{{BetaSeason|3#Election Results}}
 +
**The Breath Mints won the '''{{BetaSeason|3#Blessings|Summoning Circle}}''' blessing, randomizing the hitting stats of [[Rodriguez Internet]], [[Grey Alvarado]], and [[Eduardo Ingram]].
 +
**The Breath Mints also won '''{{BetaSeason|3#Blessings|The Rack}}''' blessing, improving defense by 15%.  
 +
**The [[Chicago Firefighters]] won the '''{{BetaSeason|3#Blessings|Vulture}}''' blessing, stealing [[Axel Trololol]] from the Breath Mints and sending back [[Atlas Guerra]] in exchange.
  
===Season 2: A Regular Old Guy... For Now===
+
*{{BetaSeason|4#Election Results}}
In the following [[Season 2]], the Kansas City Breath Mints went 41-58. Following a second season where the Mints placed in the bottom four, fan-organized voting (anecdotally referred to as The Process) supported by a litany of statistical tools and psy-ops strategies begat outcomes that could hardly be better for our fresh players.  
+
**All teams were effected by the '''{{BetaSeason|4#Decrees|Alternate Reality}}''' decree. This resulted in [[Alternate|Alternates]] of [[Rodriguez Internet]] and [[Oscar Vaughan]].
 +
**The Breath Mints won the '''{{BetaSeason|4#Blessings|Non-Dominant Arms}}''' blessing, improving pitching by 13%.
  
First, the Fourth Strike [[decree]] passed, granting an arcane rule-change to the hitters of the KCBMs that is sure to bring them straight into the postseason. Then, spirits from the Wind Realm (the ''Wind Sprints'' [[blessing]]) visited the training camp, and, pleased with what they saw, and always striving to make every plane they visit fresher, bestowed their elemental powers unto the Mints - making their baserunning increase by a whopping 15%.
+
*{{BetaSeason|5#Election Results}}
 +
**Leagues were reshuffled due to the '''{{BetaSeason|5#Decrees|High Filter}}''' decree. The Breath Mints were placed into the [[Mild League|Mild High]] Division.
 +
**The Breath Mints won the '''{{BetaSeason|5#Blessings|Keeping It Wavy}}''' blessing, improving minimum vibes by 15%.
  
And finally, [[Axel Trololol]], the Mints' very own regular old guy who loves cars and beers - and who hides a dark prehensile secret - suddenly came one step closer to his dream of himself becoming a car, by having his pitching arm replaced with a Literal Arm Cannon. Pressed for comment, Axel said "Actually my name's Alex".  
+
*{{BetaSeason|6#Election Results}}
 +
**The Breath Mints won the '''{{BetaSeason|6#Blessings|Headliners}}''' blessing, arranging their lineup in order of [[Idols|Idolatry]].
 +
**The Breath Mints also won the '''{{BetaSeason|6#Blessings|Spin Attack}}''' blessing, improving speed by 15%.
  
===Season 3===
+
*{{BetaSeason|7#Election Results}}
In [[Season 3]], the Mints ended at 49-50. As a result of the end-of-season elections, the Mints gained the blessings ''The Rack'' (defensive increase) and ''Summoning Circle'', which randomized the hitting attributes of [[Rodriguez Internet]], [[Grey Alvarado]], and [[Eduardo Ingram]].  
+
**The Breath Mints were targeted by the '''{{BetaSeason|7#Decrees|Bless Off}}''' decree, denying their ability to win blessings for the season.
 +
**The Breath Mints received [[Targeted Shame]] for the following season as a result of the [[Hawai'i Fridays]]' '''{{BetaSeason|7#Blessings|Shame Bubble}}''' blessing.
  
More notably, resident 5-star pitcher [[Axel Trololol]] was sent to the [[Chicago Firefighters]], where he will fulfill his dream of becoming a fire truck. In exchange, Chicago sent back [[Atlas Guerra]], reuniting them with their sibling [[Eizabeth Guerra]].  
+
*{{BetaSeason|8#Election Results}}
 +
**The Breath Mints won the '''{{BetaSeason|8#Blessings|Party Line}}''' blessing, adding [[Mooney Doctor II]] to the rotation and sending [[Atlas Guerra]] to the [[Shadows]].
 +
**The [[Mexico City Wild Wings]] won the '''{{BetaSeason|8#Blessings|Divisional Swap}}''' blessing, swapping the Breath Mints into the Mild Low Division as a result.
  
====Notable Games====
+
*{{BetaSeason|9#Election Results}}
 +
**All teams were effected by the '''{{BetaSeason|9#Decrees|Forecast}}''' decrees. [[Winnie Hess]] gained the [[Siphon]] modification, Mooney Doctor II gained the [[Friend of Crows]] modification, and [[Rodriguez Internet]] gained the [[Fire Eater]] modification.
 +
**The Breath Mints received a Fifth Base for the following season as a result of the [[Baltimore Crabs]]' '''{{BetaSeason|9#Blessings|Fifth Base Bubble}}''' blessing, and received Targeted Shame for the following season as a result of the [[Boston Flowers]]' '''{{BetaSeason|9#Blessings|Shame Bubble}}''' blessing.
  
*'''Stealing From Thieves ''' '''''(Season 3, Day 57, Game 3) -''''' After reaching a near-hopeless point differential of 10-3 against the [[Charleston Shoe Thieves]], the rogue incineration of Thieve's pitcher [[Matteo Prestige]] led to a 2-run home run by [[Boyfriend Monreal]], kicking off a stirring rally from the Mints offense. After sitting at 15-15 at the bottom of the 8th inning, the Mints ended the game, and the day, with a [[Shame|Grand Shame]]. Final Score: 21-16 Mints.
+
*{{BetaSeason|10#Election Results}}
 +
**The Breath Mints won the '''{{BetaSeason|10#Blessings|Rogue Waves}}''' blessing, granting the [[Repeating]] modification to [[Marquez Clark]], [[Stew Briggs]], [[Grey Alvarado]], [[Rodriguez Internet]], and [[Hewitt Best]].
 +
**The Breath Mints also won the '''{{BetaSeason|10#Blessings|Hidden Power}}''' blessing, calling up [[Helga Washington]] to the lineup and sending Marquez Clark to the Shadows.
 +
**The [[Charleston Shoe Thieves]] won the '''{{BetaSeason|10#Blessings|Shadow Ban Together}}''' blessing, boosting the Breath Mints' [[Shadows]] by 3% as a result.
 +
 +
*{{BetaSeason|11#Election Results}}
 +
**The Breath Mints were assigned the '''XIII''' [[Arcana]].
  
===Season 4: The Reverb===
+
*{{BetaSeason|12#Election Results}}
The Mints ended [[Season 4]] at 48-51, at 13th in the league and 4th in the Lawful Good. They were granted the blessing '''Non-Dominant Arms''', which buffed their pitching rotation by 13%.  
+
**The Breath Mints received '''{{BetaSeason|12#Wills|Infuse}}''' will, increasing the stats of [[Pudge Nakamoto]] from {{Star Change|6.4|11.7}}.
 +
**The Breath Mints then received the '''{{BetaSeason|12#Wills|Revoke}}''' will, giving Nakamoto the [[Roamin']] modification, after which they wandered to the [[Charleston Shoe Thieves]].  
 +
**The [[Mexico City Wild Wings]] received the '''{{BetaSeason|12#Wills|Plunder}}''' will, stealing [[Jessica Telephone]] from the Breath Mints and sending back [[Joshua Watson]] in exchange.
  
Additionally, [[Rodriguez Internet]] and [[Oscar Vaughan]] had their stats randomized due to the passing of the '''Alternative Reality''' decree. Both players’ star ratings were slightly lowered, a disappointing--but salvageable--hit. Due to this dimension interference, Rod.net’s url was changed to Rod.com, as he began developing advertisements. Oscar Vaughan seemed to have split himself in two, most likely to maximize his time at home with his husband.  
+
*{{BetaSeason|13#Election Results}}
 +
**The Breath Mints benefited from the '''{{BetaSeason|13#Decrees|Free Will}}''' decree, receiving three wills instead of two.

 +
**The Breath Mints also received the '''{{BetaSeason|13#Wills|Revoke}}''' will, giving [[Stew Briggs]] the [[Roamin']] modification, after which they wandered to the [[Houston Spies]].
 +
**Lastly, the Breath Mints received the '''{{BetaSeason|13#Wills|Plunder}}''' will, stealing the newly-resurrected [[Sutton Picklestein]] from the [[Boston Flowers]] and sending back [[Lenny Spruce]] in exchange. However, Picklestein's [[Returned]] modification triggered immediately thereafter, sending Picklestein back to the [[Hall of Flame]] and pulling [[Marquez Clark]] off the Breath Mints' [[Shadows|bench]] as a replacement.
  
===Season 5: The Horse Era===
+
*{{BetaSeason|14#Election Results}}
The Mints ended [[Season 5]] at 51-48, barely missing the playoffs, being tied at 4th in the [[Good League]] with the [[Dallas Steaks]]. As the Steaks are ahead of the Mints in [[Divine Favor]], the Mints were left behind in [[Party Time]] as the Steaks advanced to playoffs. Nonetheless, the Mints ended the season with more than 50 wins for the first time.
+
**[[The Meadow]] received the [[Crime Scene]] modifier as part of [[The Investigation]].
 +
**The Breath Mints received the '''{{BetaSeason|14#Wills|Foreshadow}}''' will, sending [[Grey Alvarado]] to the [[Shadows]] in exchange for [[Kina Larsen]].

+
*{{BetaSeason|15#Election Results}}
 +
**The Breath Mints received the '''{{BetaSeason|15#Wills|Foreshadow}}''' will, trading [[Oscar Vaughan]] to the [[New York Millennials]] in exchange for [[Uncle Plasma]] (who had [[Investigation#First Clues|briefly]] been in the Breath Mints' [[Shadows]] earlier in the season).
 +
**The Breath Mints also received the and the '''{{BetaSeason|15#Wills|Transfuse}}''' will, increasing [[Leach Ingram]]'s pitching ability at the cost of some of their baserunning.
  
===Season 6: The Death Era===
+
*{{BetaSeason|16#Election Results}}
The Mints ended [[Season 6]] at 55-44, making it to the playoffs as the 3rd seed of the [[Mild League]]. They lost to the [[Hades Tigers]] 3-2 in the quarterfinals.
+

 +

Team Overview

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.
