Gimmick build

A gimmick is a term used in reference to PvP builds. This includes both team and character builds. Gimmick means a build which is based on an overpowered skill or skills giving advantage commonly seen as unfair. Skills used in such builds eventually get nerfed. Of course they are perfectly counterable but in most cases getting prepared for them would leave the team noticably more vulnerable to some non-gimmick builds. Based on the opinions of players, a good example of gimmick builds that don't exist anymore would be the early IWAYs. As an example of gimmicks today we could put Touch Rangers.
