seriously guys what are you doing, I lost to Drifblim because of this

20:05 kd24 yeah lavos
20:05 Lavos hey
20:05 kd24 agree entirely on the ubers thing
20:05 kd24 minimize bp drifblim is ridiculous
20:05 Lavos idgi man
20:05 kd24 and it makes no sense to unban evasion
20:05 kd24 as a whole
20:05 Lavos it's not that evasion is a good strategy
20:05 kd24 even if its not very good its just
20:05 Lavos but it's completely uncompetitive
20:05 kd24 so non competiive
20:05 Lavos and messes up good players sometimes
20:05 Lavos for no good reason
20:06 kd24 all it is is a way for bad players
20:06 kd24 to luck their way
20:06 kd24 to beating good players
20:06 kd24 decisions that bridge the skill gap
20:06 kd24 are never a good idea

that pretty much sums it up

Pretty much what Pocket said. If any set proves to be broken in the metagame, namely Minimize Driflblim, we can always go for a complex ban. We all agree that Double Team sucks, it just takes too much time to setup, but Minimize is a different story. I think we need to let the metagame adapt first, and then see the impact of Evasion moves on it; only then we can decide if it's broken or not, if it's competitive or not, and it it's skill-less or not.
