>>26721802You're not being that much of an ass, so I'll explain.
No one uses Smogdex sets past 1300 on most ladders. Of course the low ladder is going to have shitty players who can't teambuild well, that's a given. The same shit happens in VGC and Battlespot.
The second thing is what most people misunderstand about Smogon, the "Smogon bans things because they can't beat it" mentality. Things are suspected because they cause overcentralization. Every decent player knows how to bear Greninja or Aegislash, but the point is that you need to use up moveslots/a teamslots just to check one Mon. It's hard to understand if you don't play comp as often or with good players.
Also, Smogon is not an entity. Bans are decided by the community, and the only time that bans aren't voted on is in the case of quick bans, which are almost never used and only happen when something is beyond a doubt way too overcentralizing and overpowered.
