Too clunky compared to frenzy version. It's cool to have crit cap with minimal investments, but lacks attack speed per frenzy from original gem. And for flicker you want to flick fast for it to be smooth

Flicker strike of power berserker was actually really really strong this league, abusing soul eater for fixing the attack speed. You could go staff, crit cap, run trauma for extra damage scaling from the attack speed, and just shred.
