CAMO POWER RANKINGS
(WARNING: This post is A JOKE. Camo isn't at OMPL!!!! Just making it clear so I'm not spreading misinformation and get my post deleted!!)
S - rank
Ghostlike: Prob the best Camo player atm. Experienced player and council member. Very good understanding of the meta even though he doesn't play much. He's so unpredictable in what he can bring (weather, standard HO, gimmick based HO, balanced, bulky team, stall, etc). He pilots his teams very well and is a very tough opponent to face).
SammyCe123: Winner of the latest Camo tour (his oppo in final was Osake so...) and council member. I was not too convinced by what Sammy brought during the tour but forced to admit it was still very solid. Unlike Ghostlike, Sammy feels much more predictable in the sense it often sticks with a balanced-liked playstyle. Doesn't play much Camo as well (but who does tbh?) but is experienced. Very good in-game.
Siamato: Legends say this guy was good. But no one is still around to agree with due to how old those legends are. Should prob go to washed ass players.
A - rank
atha: Nobody knows him for Camo and that's fair cuz he's nobody. However he's quite good at camomoning with a surprisingly good understanding of the metagame. What makes it so good at AAA also applies here with solid but creative teams backed up by a very solid in-game he's able to transpose from a meta he knows to another. Lack experience and results to be S-rank but tbh he could beat any S-rank player if he works enough to.
Clas: Ex-council member and overall long time around Camo player, Clas is now very well known within OM community for his skills across multiple metas. He lacks experience playing this generation but he could learn very fast and get back to his best level that is worth A-rank.
Ivar57: I can't believe I'm writing Ivar's name in a Camo PR at A-rank in 2025 lmao. This guy entered the latest tour as a joke and cuz he was bored and managed to end first from swiss round and finished 4th overall. Very impressive perf considering this guy never played a game of camo before and learnt the meta round by round. If he's still lacking experience, he reached a pretty decent level of understanding making him able to build okayish teams. His style his true to himself, mostly standard balanced or bulky teams inspired by sammy and myself who helped him to begin camo. I think atha is better but mainly cuz he's more experienced. Again, able to beat almost anyone if he has good team by virtue of just being very good at the game.
Jrdn: Was once likely the best camo player around with an unrivalled perf at OMPL (8 - 1 or 9 - 0 I can't remember). Jrdn's strengh is probably his ability to click so well. Indeed, another strengh he has is also his biggest weakness, the creativity he has in the builder. Sometimes he can bring very hot mons you aren't ready for at all but he can just end up being weak to something A+ rank cuz he didn't really build with the full picture of the meta in mind. If he gets the matchup and didn't pass under a ladder while holding a black cat after breaking a mirror, he is just so hard to face.
B - rank
Euphonos: E# for the Camomons meteorologist. Like jrdn above, he is one of the most experienced camo player still around even though he somehow retired from playing Camo after so many years pushing the metagame forward. He's a very creative player but often too creative running things like Harvest Jaboca Berry Exeggutor-Alola... Very prone to run something extremely gimmick but still takes into account the meta quite well. Lower in-game than the above player is the main reason holding it from being A rank imo. However, peak Euphonos is def A rank and scary to face for anybody.
Damflame3: I don't think there is a meta Dam can't play pretty decently. He has some experience playing camo in the past so he knows how things work. If he has support to learn the metagame, he can manage thanks to a solid in-game.
Karl Dude Guy: The tier leader! Quite a quiet guy who doesn't play a lot anymore but followed camo since generations and had many experiences playing it. Very classic balanced playstyle most of the time making him predictable but still hard to exploit cuz he knows very well the metagame. KDG builds solid teams and is good in-game making him a tough opponent to face. He's not A-rank cuz I think, in-game, he's a little lower.
Lepton: Nobody knows they were playing Camo and, in fact, maybe they don't, but still they did quite well during the camo tour with good teams home made(?). Solid in-game and overall experienced OM player. Can't say much cuz I don't know them much but I just believe they're good.
Smallsmallrose: Camo council member as well but quite unknown from OM players cuz she doesn't play much and is pretty much only interested in Camo she follows since quite a long time now. She's one of the most invested camo council member when it comes to talk about the metagame and she always pushes the tier forward. As a player, she's pretty decent too but lacks overall competitive experience to get better. Her teams can be a bit shaky sometimes even though she's running solid mons most of the time. However, she has flaws in-game preventing her to be higher.
C - rank
Anaconja: Didn't perform so well last time he played Camo but he's still a very very experienced player whose name is known in the camo field. He doens't know well the current metagame but he's still able to build decent teams. With motivation and training he could def win some games.
BoingK: Felt like his teams were quite good looking for a beginner. Pretty sure he could do well with support and training.
Byleth: Is going to stall you to death like he does during dailies smh.
Fififlutters: Was once a top Camo player but that's back in SM lol. Considering this past experience, she could probably become again a top camo player if she learns the meta again. Overall very good builder and player.
Giagantic: At some point he played camo with me and it was fun. Very creative player and improved a lot in-game but still lacking consistency and meta knowledge to build solid teams.
Shima: Not a sample player! Shima tried to build their own teams and tbh they were not that bad. Reached topcut of camotour but fell in front of Ghostlike. Decent sub for sure.
Tbp24: Ended up not playing at the end of swiss round but felt motivated at the beginning. Pretty sure if he's invested he can learn the metagame more and become a very tough player to face especially cuz he's good in-game. Remind me a bit Sammy, Ghostlike or Ponchlake at their beginning.
The Hisui Region: Built a few interesting teams and is okayish in-game. His camo experience mainly comes from Camove Chaos.
zxgzxg: Won a camo tour once? He's a decent clicker but also mostly a fraud if we consider he almost only ran sample teams during his runs. Still technically an "experienced" clicker so it's worth C-rank ig.
Clickers - rank:
Banbadoro: He only plays samples but he became good at doing so!
Betathunder: Proved he was very good at clicking during the tournament even though he only brought sample teams. He's just so solid in-game and after playing a bit he somehow managed to transfer his skills to camo.
TKYSZL: Another good samples player.
Any good OMs player
Any very good OU player: Camo is one of the closest meta from OU in terms of gameplay and meta.
Washed ass but were once amazing - rank:
A loser: Not very well known for being good at camo cuz he's mostly known for BH but some remember he was once Camo council (and maybe even leader?). Had a very good understanding of the metagame.
Andyboy: Not known for Camo as well but once won a Camo tour with good teams and high level plays. Was a camo council member during last gen.
Geerat: We miss the goat but we hope he's fine.
Ponchlake: Ex council member and one of the best camo player back in near end SS. Can be a bit of a madman in the builder sometimes but overall very solid teams and good in-game. I miss him too.
Stresh: Do you know this guy didn't like much Camo but was still very good at it?!
TheNumberMan: I love this guy so much and he was one of the best camo player in history for sure but that's just him being one of the strongest overall OMs player in history. Solid teams, solid plays. Not so creative however like Sammy or Ivar.
Past camo players I forgot: Metariolu7, Akashi, Cscl, Havens, Dugza
Fraud and trash - rank:
Osake: Only him deserves this special rank below everything else cuz he knows I love him (I don't). Did camo tour final but definitely not deserved and I'm not coping cuz he beat my ass and took away the money I had to win to repay the money I spent to buy him drinks or food like he's my kid.
Waiting for
Don Vascus Inheritance PR now
