Don't know man, dude uses the stuff to tip the battle in his favor, though he was dumbed down a bit in his fight with Ichigo granted (Then again, that 6 pillar light thing appears to have some stall time, so maybe not, otherwise it would really be too broken). Against Renji though he used it effectively in a combo that literally destroyed him. Depends on how you use it in the end I suppose, though versitility certainly can come in handy.
