This content can and has been beaten by non meta groups with no issues and most of the ppl complaining don't play optimally enough to even really benefit from the meta comp.
Nobody discussing this is saying that it's the most devastating thing ever. It should go without saying that all of these discussions take place because, no matter how small the margin, people want the game to be better and improve where it can. It... SHOULD go without saying. But the more common notion, is that campaigning for a better game is stupid because, "Lol Ultimate is so ez any Job can clear lololol". It's not a bad thing to care about wanting better, even if it's a slight improvement that you're wanting.

Listen, I get that speed-killing isn't taking place within the entire community at large. But the visibility of it, and the popularity of a certain website has changed how (some) people approach the game, and the perception of balance. Fact is, Job changes are largely based on community feedback. That feedback is based on the perception of balance in this game, and their experiences. That is shaped by things like that website, and the visibility it gives of the most popular and effective compositions, and the upper limit of individual Jobs. It doesn't really matter how many people take advantage of a strong tactic, it just matters that it exists, and can be seen. And to be frank, I never understood the argument that, "Not many people speed-kill anyway." As if that's supposed to help the argument? So if only a couple people could take advantage of Ungarmax, it doesn't really matter? Only a couple people can really pull off a speedhack, so that's not a problem? Okay.

Again, it's not a crime to care about something. You pay for this product at the end of the day, too. It's cool if you don't care about what you're getting for your money. I choose to, so just like the other people who want better, I'll keep talking about it.
