You don't see people playing bound, defense, or phantom games in world wide tournaments, do you?

And basically each of those games you listed off is only 1 part of the skill required in a balanced WGT game...

Bound games=precise clicks/timing... need in WGT
Defense games= strategic placement/resource management... need in WGT
Impossible Scenarios= Micro... need in WGT
