I'd actually prefer if this CAP was not able to OHKO Conkeldurr for this reason (OHKOing conk is an achievement anyway).
you have to remember that reward is part of this concept as well so there should be some things that cap4 can take on very well. Risk and reward should be looked at in terms of the entire metagame not in terms of every one on one matchup. There will be some match ups that are very risky/ not winnable and some match ups that are very rewarding/ very winnable.

Adding to that i don't think conkeldurr should become a threat so thats why i feel its important to have the power to ohko it. otherwise it will and i don't think thats something we want.
