1. who actually cares about FL balance?

2. in cc it's one of the worst LBs, basically just a newb trap. Good against casuals but horrible against anyone who knows how to play.

3. use your shields and bait it, and even if you don't have shields if it solo kills you're still ahead cause that sam could have been a mnk player instead doing twice the mnk lb kills a match

Any lb that depends on the enemy team messing up is bad, because eventually players get good enough to not make a mistake and it becomes useless.
