Victini became a dominant force in the BW UU metagame the moment it got V-Create and many considered it "broken". At the end of BW Victini was suspected and voters decided to keep it in the tier, which realistically doesn't help what I'm trying to do with this thread, but that's relevant info.
However, some things changed after that suspect. Physical Scarf and Choice Band Victini stopped being virtually the only sets used; sets like Special Scarf, fully Special Victini and OTR became much more common in tournaments, including SPL 5 and unofficial UU tournaments. Chandelure was banned after SPL 5, which means Victini lost one of its most relevant offensive checks and shitty niche Pokemon, like Houndoom, are significantly less useful / viable. Victini didn't really get any major improvement in UU ORAS or UU SM, and yet it's banned in both and widely agreed to be broken; needless to say, it's rather "odd" that Victini is banned from tiers with much higher power creep than BW UU. Lastly, Victini being allowed generates controversy in every single UU tournament that includes BW UU.
The last point is more important than what it sounds. BW UU right now is only played in tournaments like UUPL and UU Classics (important tournaments in the UU community), and minor side tournaments; in all of them is very common to see players / managers agreeing to play without Victini. BW UU might be a "dead tier", but people still play it and some of them want us to deal with Victini.
I want to use this thread to discuss the possibility of banning Victini from BW UU, likely via blind vote with "x" requirements to qualify as a voter. This OP is meant to list reasons to consider voting on Victini again and nothing else.
