Pokkén Tournament Any other Braixen players feel gimped by Psybeam's lack of projectile durability?

I just can't seem to figure out why it's as low as it is. Braixen isn't a character who normally wants to get in close to other characters, with a few exceptions of stronger zoners like Gardevoir and Suicune. But against characters like Pikachu and Lucario, you really would rather stand back and force them to approach. You know, until they realize that their projectiles like Thunderbolt and Aura Sphere punch right through your Psybeam and hit you in the face. Why? Shouldn't Psybeam be durable enough to at least cancel in a meeting with projectiles from characters more suited for close-quarters combat?

i think its because how potent we are as zoners overall...and we have other more potent durab tools at our disposal

speaking from a submain perspective, i do ranked with cario only,
