Probably should rephrase my post then.
For the record, I have no problem with items. When I play to screw around I'll play with items. If I want to do something competitive wise and skill based, I take them off. You might not find then overpowered, but you should atleast be able to see why people could find them OP. It's like if in a football game, there was a random chance that the running back became twice as large and almost impossible to tackle, and this was determined by luck. You could see how it either becomes centered around luck or around the random growth spurts, rather than playing football. People could say adapt to this skill based happening that has a major chance to turn the tide of the game, or they could just remove the growth spurt. Seeing as how one of the options does not involve the chance of the tide turning based on luck, you could see why removing the growth spurt is the prefered option.
