It's not that it's "bad" per se... it's just... well... "good", but not absolutely necessary for the countdown deck. It's effect does not break the more important "center". Destroying the sides ends up being somewhat pointless because if you're against a defensive deck, they either don't have monsters there or don't care about them and ofensive decks can quickly replace their sides. It's a size 2 that doesn't search or protect the combo in a deck that likes the size 1 rush for control and life re-gain. Since damage output becomes moot, all that matters is defensive control... and this card is way more ofensive than defensive.
