You must not run with any *good* WARs. I'm perfectly capable of doing everything you listed there and, barring strats that absolutely *require* HG (and very few strats *require* HG; they simply do well with it), I generally do them *better* than PLDs. WAR is all about using the tools you've got actively whereas PLD is more about holding on to them until they're absolutely required. The only time you're going to see a WAR get outperformed by a PLD is when that WAR is an idiot who tries to play it like it's a PLD (e.g. "ration Vengeance to a nearly HG level"; it's on a 2 min CD so that's just dumb).
