started playing some nu, here’s what I think about the meta rn :sv/decidueye: b+ > b Most of what Decid does in the tier, other mons do better. Removal options like Cram, Altaria, and Tsar. Offensive ghosts like Chandy, Big Bass, and Houndstone (shengineer’s wp set is goated). Doesn’t really...

won vs bye 41 gg sry bout the hax

Just to clarify, a check is something that can swap in a couple times. 252 Atk Wellspring Mask Ogerpon-Wellspring Ivy Cudgel vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Toxtricity: 249-294 (85.5 - 101%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO 252 Atk Wellspring Mask Ogerpon-Wellspring Ivy Cudgel vs. 0 HP / 252 Def Toxtricity: 183-216...

Hello fellow Cramorant enjoyer. I really like the double Ground core and CB Meow is always cool to see, so I’m happy to help you out with the team. -Lando + Tusk cores are great because of the ambiguity of what set these two are running. So running Rocks on both feels like a waste. Personally...

Kingambit is very difficult to keep at 100%, especially when it is tasked with swapping into Shadow Balls, Kyurem, Hatterene, Darkrai and sometimes checking Dnite via Tera. Not to mention Gambit still takes a huge chunk from Great Tusk and Lando after Terastilzing assuming it’s not Tera Flying...

Though I am not enjoying this meta (Dnite and Wellspring are stupid and laddering SV OU has gotten boring since the OLT cycles ended), I’d like to give a shoutout to Scizor, who I think is at its peak rn. Though Scizor doesn’t appreciate certain trends (Zapdos’ popularity being one such...

Don’t think there will be another situation like that again. SV OU’s power creep is insane to the point where defensive niches from lower tiers are rare. So you have to look at the offensive side of things. If you wanna be technical, Ninetales is all the way in ZU and that’s the go-to Sun...

You’re overestimating how good Balance teams would be without Wellspring. Obviously they would improve with Wellspring gone, but Offense’s options vs Balance teams aren’t limited. Darkrai, Kyurem, Hatterene, and Primarina are all excellent wallbreakers that do fit on Offense and the list goes...

Thoughts on the Meta Post-OLT Cycles I won’t go over every change of this VR (unless tempted) but here’s the ones that would spark the most discussion. Rise Noms :sv/slowking_galar: A > A+ Still shocked this never rose to A+. It’s an important defensive pivot on several BO/Balance/Offense...

1: :sv/tornadus_therian: :sv/heatran: :sv/rillaboom: These three are a given. Torn-T is incredibly versatile with Boots Taunt, NP, and AV. You can legit lead with Torn most of the time because it outspeeds a vast majority of the tier and guarantees progress with Knock/U-Turn. Heatran is a...
