Tiebreak Predicts:
Europe (3) vs (0) Belgium
Brine vs Rubyblood:
cba typing up a whole post, orb zam and volc broken, if both of them couldnt hold a orb meta would be fine, but i assume orb isnt on the table, do the survey
Drud vs Le lillet
definitely agree a survey would be a good approach, not sure why this is a big deal, it has been a while since the last one and we can also include the other pokemon discussed earlier in the year like Alakazam and Thundurus-Therian.
lolebruh vs davidTheMaster
My actual volc opinions are the same as in my earlier post. I think you can tech most teams to be good vs him and those techs reduce the power level of the game's other scary team archtypes, like PsySpam (can't do scar-less/sashzam-less) and rain (can't do Specs Keld + ScarfRachi/Scizor). examples of the best techs: Careful Tyranitar, TWave or Leech Seed or Explosion Ferrothorn. More Scarf Lando. Scarf or TWave or Roar or White Herb Latios on PsySpam. I think this makes for a good dynamic. I think Heatran, Scarf Garchomp, and Scarf Keldeo are all a bit underrated and that the meta should turn towards them. My stalls run Heatran, Blissey, or Chansey frequently. I think Hippo Clef is just a bit outdated and risky now. None of this is particularly selective towards Volcarona - I make these exact changes to cover LO Alakazam too.
Not hugely passionate about what happens here but always supportive of community surveys.
