I think this would have been much better in the Product Questions section, but no harm done. I don't own X, but I know some people who do, and they said it's pretty good.
Yes it is a great effect, but there is a setup before you can perform it. And, to me, this is not one of those effects you just go around performing endlessly, there are certain situations that should be met before performing.
I have seen the old trailer of it, it looks really awesome.
But not my style to have a lot of set-up and this effect looks like it really does need a lot of it.
