Certain coaches are banned because of a single skill, Monster Defense. Chesire is banned because of a unique combination of skills. The thing with Welch, Babb and Gallo is that they don't offer super powerful skills but very efficient standard setups as a whole so the discussion about them doesn't center on skills but on points distribution. How high is too high, 170+ wings, 90+ Power & Serve, etc? There's no definite concensus yet and the game is programmed to "work" in the 30-100 stats range anway.
Monster Defense could be fixed rather easily, 2K could make it so that it only activates when your opponent has a game/break/set/match point which would make it the exact opposite of Smell of Blood (and a hidden attribute of CPU chars).
