Hmm... I would probably agree with you on the point of paints, but, just a question, have you ever tried using Railgun yourself? Or do you just happen to face those who have mastered the art of Railgun battles, because, with the right abilities, you can effectively trump the battlefield, as long as the teams are fair, or at most somewhat slanted.

Yes, it is always sad when something you once enjoyed is gone. Similar to childhood television programs.
