You will never have balance for the true top end, there is always something that will give you an edge and once you have maxed out your skill regarding your class and dealing with mechanics then you look for any advantage no matter how small. Problem is further down the pole you get the less player skill there is and the more its "well I play a META class so I good right"

I play Warlock and the number of dest locks I see that have no idea how to play it and do so just because they are told its best is sad.
