Scrapebox Comment function really dead?

So I just bought Scrapebox, my first seo tool...

I haven't really attempted to use it for blog commenting but my soul purpose was to use it for blog commenting on my tier 2 links. I've used it to check my trial of GSR links for the check link feature and scraping for better keywords. I just want to know what you guys think. I know there are some people on bhw think that blog commenting is dead but it would surly supply some link juice to my tier 2 links.

I'm thinking that If I build a large amount of aa edu/gov links in my niche I should be alright... right?

Most people use scrapebox comments as tier 3 links.

Some people think blog commenting is dead because they don't know how to do it properly. Just doing it alone with any list you find off the web or the ones that come with scrapebox will not do. Making your own effective blog comment/autoapprove list is something that is not that easy to do...

Comment spamming is not dead yet. Build your own AA lists and spam the hell out of your tier 2 links.

Like others said it's not dead.

Heck people declared forum profiles dead a couple years ago and I still see sites with Xrumer links dominating.
