Thats fine. They would get rid of that anyway if old Gi were to return, that'll be too much. My defense is this: I don't like it because it grants a 50/50 thats forced on you. For example: Natsu GI's you, if you don't GI 66B hits you for alot of damage, if you do re-gi a bomb hits you for alot of damage.
I understand GI can be baited out but i feel for most characters it's too strong of an option select. Where characters like zwei and siegfried don't benefit much from it.
