I nkow why the books are there for the comps to use, but however i do not think that a "regular" strong player 2000-2350 would be able to take advantage of the comp not using it's book (not using anti comp play) Some humans would be able too, but no more than the # of humans that could take advantage of poorly contructed books! some humans would even find it harder to play against a comp that went out of book early.
