Mhm, I'm not saying you started any arguments. I cba to scroll way up multiple pages, but I imagine it was you being wrong on something, me telling you, and you disagreeing. If you can't be bothered tho, then I was wondering why you'd continously contest at all.

In order for me to explain to you the relative values of niche and general, I'll need to know your methodology (the system of what things you consider valuable). If for some reason you only believe lategame and beyond should be considered for anything, then we disagree on a much more fundamental level, and it'd be quite difficult to even interact with you about anything in bc.

I'm gonna assume you don't wanna disagree on that fundamental level, and just go with considering every part of the game, difficult stuff being more important, ubers not replacing uber niches, minimal boost, and etc.

For the majority of the game, you won't have near enough ubers to cover all the niches that you need covered, even stuff like a dps for every type is quite difficult to get before lategame. For all of those types that you don't have a specific dps for, you'll wanna use your best generalist there instead. This also applies to stages you don't know what have, like what you'd put in a general lineup. Although not particularly common, there are quite a few stages with several enemies types where generalists do better than anything else, since they can deal with it all (f29 is an easy example).

At its core, a generalist is a unit that has good base stats like survivability, Dps, and range, so a good generalist is almost automatically good. If you look at the Tierlist, the generalists hardly exist below C+, since their good stats just make them at least that good.

Some other important points. Every unit has some niche or other, even the generalists, so that's an advantage to them, being good in niche and general. More stages are going to be general stages than are any type of niche stage, so general use has an advantage purely in quantity of opportunities as well.

You get the idea?
