I disagree with nearly all of that post.

If there were no mechanics like that. Basicly every single fight would turn into a tank and spank.

Argh... Please read the follow-up on the OP post, but anyways this sums it up: "I'm not saying that gimmicks/mechanics are evil and should be removed completely, just that fights should not be “driven” by them."

No one wants a tank and spank!
