"That's why I out predicted you so many times at the beginning, because I knew you knew what to expect me to use."
Got you. And honestly, I kind of hate using surprise as well. It feels a bit like cheating but hey. Scarfed Scizor was actually needed not just for surprise lol

Hey man, glad to have you back. Hope you had a nice vacation.

yea true true...
But any flaws you noticed *obviously there were*, when you played me?

tonight was ideal but I don't think I can...I got too much on my mind...If I were to battle, I'd probably just throw the match so yeah...
Tommorow is lookin' ideal.
Could you coach me up a bit? My ass was getting handed by you first half so I need to fix that mistake before I take RaijueR on...

hahaha Gaarrryyy was gooodd
GOT THAT TOURNAMENT. man i'm so rusty.
I don't think I'll make it to finals this time around :'[
How was your vaca man?

I saw this and couldn't help but think of your Sceptile love ;]

Ok then, fair enough.
Honestly, I'd like to get this tournament over with quickly so we can start up some new projects. A collaboration RMT would be really nice, and it would help get our name out to the rest of Smogon.

Yeah, that should have been obvious to me in retrospect... apparently not...
But I think Scarf Landorus is something very much worth consideration. Personally, I don't see a whole lot of point in Scarfers that can't outspeed those critical threats like Volcarona and Salamence, since their so dangerous otherwise. Since Landorus does basically the exact same thing as Landorus-T minus the Intimidate bulk and immediate firepower, I think it's a viable alternative. Plus you can use Sand Force to take advantage of Sand. Give it some thought.

I'm afraid I really can't help you with THAT decision... I've used Landorus-T extensively, so I know how great it is, but all I know of Landorus-I is that it's a devastating sweeper. If you do make the change, you'll probably need a new Scarfer like Heatran, so keep that in mind.

Hey, I just saw your latest Youtube video. Pretty hilarious Landorus sweeps you pulled off there!
Something I noticed was that you were using your Biohazard team, but with Landorus over your Scarf Landorus-T. Is that a recent change you made?

Probably a good idea

I think that making Wednesday the deadline might not be a bad idea. Those two are the only ones left to have their match, and they can probably manage it within the next few days. At the very least, moving the deadline closer might encourage them to actually get it done.

By the way, if you want I could possibly try and run things while you're gone. If you just tell me what to do I'm sure I can manage.

I read your post on False's wall and from my point of view [might not be right] I think your biggest flaw is : "Taking too much of a risk late-game".
When you're holding such an advantage, realize that you musn't start to play predictable as people such as myself will capitalize on that. However, don't go for a hard dangerous read if you don't need to. Yes, if you get the prediction right, it's a guarentee victory. Get it wrong though and you're looking at a turn-around.
I don't blame you though. After today's battle, I went out to practice against some good players [THANK GOD NO MORE NOOBS WITH SHUCKLES] and I would find myself at a 4-6 disadvantage but I'd find that they'd play too safely or too rashly, which allowed me to catch right back up. However I ended up losing as I got too greedy, which is something that shouldn't happen :/
Anyways, don't bang on yourself too much man. You're a talented battler with a flaw. Everyone's got one lol

Well, someone always has to lose. That's just how it works. We all make those kinds of mistakes from time to time; what you need to do is learn from those mistakes and use that knowledge to your advantage.

though I'm still a little puzzled... If I were being Cocky, I would've sacked Heatran to kinda be like "I don't even give a damn, I ain't switching lol". Switching to Mienshao almost seemed like you had a plan to accomplish lol and no offense but it was a pretty bad one haha.
Maybe you should polish your "How to be super arrogant 101" skills lol :P
But whatever. All in a good game ;]

Sorry about your loss in the first round. I know that can be pretty disappointing...

Beating Gary2346, a legend, on my first attempt. Man, I've come a long way.
I rewatched most of our battles and I saw my misplays mainly involving my Kingdra and your Heatran. Otherwise, Good Game !
I'm very proud of where I got and I'm happy I didn't get eliminated Round 1. Finals is a dream lol

Well, if I recall correctly, we previously established that your an hour ahead of me. It's 6:10 at the time I'm writing this, and apparently it's around 7:00 for you...
So yeah, I'm an hour slower. Bottom line, the match is in 30 minutes.

Got it!
...But aren't I an hour slower here? So for me it would be in 30 minutes...

7:30 should be a nice time. I'll be available at that time. No parental supervision ;]

how about at 7 pm today? if not we have until like friday so...

just tell everyone that the win is not official until it our battle has gone out throughly

lol i already told him ^_^

wait, false alarm !

i meant i mostly play wifi

i have showdown though :) sorry for your concern

mostly wifi :( why?
