Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Had to log back into smogon just to state that moth to a flame is a great song choice, good job njnp, the first two lines truly reflect how HO players feel when trying to use any mon else from volcarona to check fairies such as ival/enam
"Like a moth to a flame
I'll pull you in, I'll pull you...
I can't wait for the yt comment section when the inevitable gouging fire suspect to be all complaints cause "gouging beats kingambit and gholdengo but FINCH WANTS TO BAN IT INSTEAD??? The OU clown show clearly is being payed off by big pharma since they REFUSE to ban them!!!111!1!111"
Alright...
Ok guys before the survey drops let's all agree on what the values mean alright? Feel free to argue against some of the things I put but here's what I think every number is:
5: QB it immediately please get rid of it.
4: Needs a suspect, a qb would be fine though.
3: Can/Should be suspected, but...
Taunt bu tera fairy palafin 1v1's zamazenta
It can take ogerpon as well by taunting and spamming dpunch
Taunt the dozo and chip it down
Insert band rain calc vs rillaboom
Come onnn guys we've had the damn palafin talk like 17 times how about dropping iron bundle instead that could be a fun Uber...
Im just repeating the kingambit argument from months ago, as a point used to argue to keep it was it's defensive profile checking ghosts, and offensive checking frail attackers such as moth.
As Magcargo stated, wipes zapdos usage (I actually really like that cause static is bullshit) and...
Oh wait Rmoon mention time to lock in.
Actually, I already hate moon enough let me move onto bolt, uhh yeah a while back I was silently watching a OU room discussion where it was bolt vs gambit, who's better overall. The main point that seemed to stick with me was "gambit offers actual...
Like reaction from srn you know this shit serious
Ok seriously speaking yeah I think waterpon is kinda funky, I mean now with the sole thing (archaludon) that was keeping it from being able to run it's funny sets (trailblaze, pr, etc) instead of superpower, I believe we'll probably see a bit of...
I don't quite understand why people seem to always call zam-c a sidegrade to Zam-h just cause no Lefties, despite its brief home appearance with pao showing that if anything, it's the better Zam form. 140 double bulk paired with a still excellent speed tier is massive, as well as a natural tox...
Pro ban voters seeing and a clear ban become a potential kingambit/kyurem situation cause SZ or vert made a anti ban post:
Ok I can't make this a one liner so Imma just say uhhhh... Don't like, 23/25 of the things SZ listed as counterplay die the instant arch gets a eshot into a Draco? For some...
Before we consider dropping mage can we please ban stored power I'm not dealing with that imebcillic damn set again I'm already pissed off enough at latias veil trying to cheese wins
Finch I never thought I'd say this but is a stored power ban actually possible? Say like I could prove it breaks...
Hey guys long time no see I've been losing to shit like relic song scarf meloetta getting 3 sleeps consecutively on me in low ladder
So what do you guys think about :samurott-hisui: in general rn? I mean yeah yeah I get obliterated by raging bolt but nothing's new on that front, but else from...
:calyrex-ice:
Immensely powerful dragon killing stab? Check
A method of being a check to metagame threats? (Tr abusing to flip rain matchups by using their speed against them, being a fatass in general, capable of abusing agility to be a fast sweeping threat as well cause yeah why not?) Check...
"Oh I'm on a streak cool-
+4 252+ 2 Fallen Tera Dark Kingambit:"
Uhhh, Idk about others but I kinda just play the same regardless, if I lose I lose. If I'm on a 17 LOSE streak then, someone is getting eviscerated by my mere gaze.
Actually this video is a metacommentary upon the state of the OU metagame, where players refuse to acknowledge their faults and keep attempting to use bandage answers to keep the tier afloat, until the point where it all comes down. Only within the rubble of the old, can a new, better and...
Yeah... Pre-Home ladder... Free the goldfish, Pao, ape and shed tail... Atp they're balanced cause with rain everywhere chi can't spam free overheats..... Trust me guys...
Ok but jokes aside this entire gen from start to finish has been the most.... How do I put it? It's has the most bans yet...
