The previous one was a bit useless or at least it was maybe the weakest of all of the main teams, only Choji could inflict real physical damage, but the addition of Inojin opens up a lot of possibilities for their offensive...

I wouldn't say they were exactly useless, they were pretty strong as a team, its just their formation wasn't shown in a strong way that much as much they implied they are, and Ino and Shikamaru was more of the tactical fighter than physical, but honestly this new trio can be really promising, given the fact that the powerhouse is actually a girl which makes it more intriguing, Chocho's more like sakura among the trio, while Shikadai has the Kazekage bloodline alongside the nara brain, and for Inojin his father is pretty much one of the most refined fighter if not the strongest, previous trio was pretty one-dimensional in terms of individual fighting but this one can offer more individually as well as a team
