ORAS Doubles Replays

Wanted to post this game I played against Lohgock, since it shows two fun tips people might be able to use where they generally wouldn't think about it. First off, I kept Diancie in normal form to avoid getting neutered by lando-t, and later to kill a cm cresselia who otherwise probly would have beaten me. Turn 12 is the pinnacle, where I Earth Powered my own Aegislash to activate wp and put cresselia in diamond storm range, p much winning me the game :). Remember that it sometimes does indeed pay off to attack yourself (this was also showed at some point where someone killed his teammate with azumarill just so he could bring in kanga + mew and sweep).

Lol Laga your team is somehow still relevant. I won a big room tour with it in all rounds. Here are the two fun games.

so you won on a 30% x 303% x 50%? That's 4.55%, which is moreless than the chance of winning on a crit. Not exactly that unlikely. But sure I agree with any chance to say Stratos got owned.




...meh fuck my memory of the precise odds. Still not exactly notable.

triple protect is actually 1/3 not 30%. and 5% is less than a crit, which is 6.25%.

The most magical part about this was being in call with them at the time and Totem calling everything before it happened, while Stratos screamed "NOOOOOO" after each one.

I wish I recorded that.

I thought we were actually going to fight each other tbh. I'm glad we were able to have a civilized discussion and understand the world's problems together without the use of physical violence

There's more than one way to win a battle. Some just can't let themselves see the less violent path.

I'm glad that you have enlightened me. I feel reborn, and for once in my life, free of the chains that bound me to the evil haze of this Earth

I almost forgot this thread existed and have a very important replay showcasing why Stratos' sun sample team needs better Hail checks.
