I also forgot, lightning only removes frozen, not freezing so Wind+Ice still dominate Water+Lightning.
Yeah, the combo is far from unbeatable - Fire/Poison is my personal bet for being the best synergy when TGR comes out (though Wind/Ice might edge it out thanks to exceptionally good matchups and Wind being Wind).
But again - the counters for Light/Crystal include every petrify build and Lightning/Water - the counters for Lightning/Water are mostly super tailored stuff like Shadow/Magma, or Sand/Explosion. Sure, it’s not impossible, but I don’t think anyone’s going to be running this stuff.
The least niche option is Wind/Anything, which in practice means Wind/Ice (because like Sand and Light, Wind’s best build is obvious).
Out of the actually common matchups (not just stuff people are running to counter Lightning/Water), only a couple bad matchups (and a ton of one-sided ones) is pretty good.
In conclusion:
Light/Crystal is good, but probably not the best, and definitely not unbeatably broken. I don’t see nerfs coming unless we’re getting another total rebalance.
