On top of this with Fetterward and Weapon Throw there was almost no counterplay to a melee bursting you down.
A well timed bard burst (1.5m CD) can decide the outcome of a match.

A well timed BLM sleep can decide the outcome of a match.

A well timed MCH Stun / BTE can decide the outcome of a match.

A well timed Holmgang behind a wall can decide the outcome of a match.

A well timed PLD stun on healer can decide the outcome of a match.

A well timed....you get the point. Melee LB isn't the only thing that can decisively swing a match.
