It's still a ridiculous ability. You could literally turn your opponent's weapon against them and be more skilled at it then they are themselves.
True, but it's an ability that really only shines against enemies like Gilgamesh and FSN Archer... who has a lot of weapons and the habit of shooting them against the enemy.

Against any other opponent, it would only shine as a disarming skill... and if you can disarm your opponent, you might as well just kill him right there and then.

Z/Berserker was obviously designed partly in due as an 'indirect counter to GoB via pure skill', allowing him to showcase an 'awesome and cool' way to counter GoB without creating a UBW clone.

I mean, just look at how many new fans of Zero/Berserker were created in the span of half a day. I won't deny that the way he countered GoB was definitely very very cool, even more so since it's showcased as a showcase of high skill.
