All this comes down to is if you don't like it, don't use it. Lobot and other strong pieces like him are going to be used because they are good. If you and your group don't like something then in your own group decide to not use it. The Atlanta group has pretty much decided that Black Ops Training is just mean and unfun, so we don't use it. I wouldn't say to someone else that they shouldn't use it just because I dislike it.
Lobot is good, if you dont like him no one is making you play him.
Its not that simple. When the Atlanta crew play HannahCannon or myself at next years regionals there is a good shot they will have to deal with BlackOps. Just like the same thing as when I travel to an event where Tim will be playing at, Im sure to see Lobot.
I have no dilusions here, I dont expect Lobot to be magically banned. He is entrenched in the tourney scene and has been for years. All I'm trying to do is bring up a few points that I see getting to be more of a problem as more Vsets and more figures that can be lobotted come out.
Just telling me "well don't play it" is a pretty ignorant response to a concerned player. That to me sounds like your saying dont bother coming to any regionals where you would see it or even GenCon. I seriously doubt that is something you want to be saying to any player in the game at this point.
There isn't much more for me to say on the issue. I guess I'll sit back and see what is up after Vset 4 gets played and Vset 5 comes...
