Indeed, it does overcentralize the metagame. I hope CAP does the same thing if they get tiered separately soon.

Also nice meme

imo back when fly z land was good there was actually some substance for it being ban worthy but it's really not that centralizing and people tend to overhype the 50% usage. It's just splashable, not really centralizing.

Oh, okay. So the 50% usage doesn't really mean anything regarding viability, then?

No it does, it really does - it means it's highly splashable. And yes, it is centralizing to an extent. However, it's very rare that teams are lando weak - I don't look at a team only to realize that the two most common landorus t sets (scarf and defensive) demolish it or that I have to overly prep for it. Nor do I see that it makes too much unviable. It's actually not as centralizing as a lot of people say.
