It just bothers me that such useless items are on a ban list, as well as the reining mentality that luck is a bad thing to have in a competitive game. (I feel the same way about Smash Bros. It's different from Pokemon, as turn-based battles really need a luck factor to avoid ideal teams and such, but pure skill vs. skill gets boring to me.)ShadianVisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14781350411603488703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-54365864387796795722012-02-20T20:29:33.133-05:002012-02-20T20:29:33.133-05:00A re-poll on Brightpowder, you mean?A re-poll on Brightpowder, you mean?Slowflakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090675773915536700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-85957786204377368272012-02-20T20:12:54.989-05:002012-02-20T20:12:54.989-05:00I don't see why a re-poll wouldn't be cons...I don't see why a re-poll wouldn't be considered, especially after seeing the initial effects of the hax-item ban. I suppose there's a reason I'm not part of the Smogon voting crowd, though.ShadianVisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14781350411603488703noreply@blogger.com
