    BH BH7 Suspect #1: Crystal-Free Z-Moves - Voter Identification & Discussion

    This is my first post on these forums in several years. Unlimited CFZ is insanely broken and I am voting ban. Though if it were an option, I would want to consider allowing exactly one CFZ per team. Just food for thought.

    Official XY Ubers Shadow Tag Suspect Voting

    Shadow Tag: Do Not Ban I'm voting to keep Shadow Tag unbanned. This is because I think Shadow Tag is overpowered and not uncompetitive. The reason I think Shadow Tag is not uncompetitive is that it doesn't minimize the importance of the decisions both players make during teambuilding and...

    Gen 6 np: XY Ubers Shadow Tag Suspect Test - Stuck In The Middle With You

    If you were really outplaying your opponent, you wouldn't let them achieve the Shadow Tag matchup they're trying to achieve. And, if there is no viable line of play that allows you to do this, then your team simply matches up very badly against their team. Regardless of which is true (they...

    Ladder Balanced Hackmons

    The reason people don't use Imprison a lot (it isn't awful, but it's generally not good on sweepers imo) is that it takes a set-up turn. If you have time to Imprison, you have time to Tail Glow/Shell Smash on a Judgmentmon, which gives you more immediate damage the following turn as well as...

    Ladder Balanced Hackmons

    Arceus doesn't have Multitype though, so it's still normal. That looks interesting, but I think Ghostceus is better. Arceus @ Spooky Plate Ability: Multitype -Magic Coat -Tail Glow -Judgment -Secret Sword Hits on both the physical and special side of the spectrum, probably has a slightly...

    Ladder Balanced Hackmons

    Clearly, you did not read what I said. This is another example of a strawman. My post was talking about double blind decision making, not RNG. RNG is a separate issue entirely. All I am saying is that when you have to make a teambuilding decision, there should be a reason to make one decision...

    Ladder Balanced Hackmons

    I don't think people are responding to the things I'm actually saying, and are instead imagining that either A) I think it's overpowered/overused/overcentralizing/good at all (it's pretty mediocre, if not bad) or B) It's a really solid check to Chansey strategies and I'm whining cuz I happen to...

    Ladder Balanced Hackmons

    Do you think the move, in the context of Balanced Hackmons, leads to a better designed game? Whether it's overpowered (or even good) is irrelevant. I am of the opinion that banning important, frequently used things should be done with extreme caution. However, when something is not widely used...

    Ladder Balanced Hackmons

    Pokemon was not necessarily designed with competitive play in mind, and certainly was not designed with competitive Balanced Hackmons in mind. As a result, there is stuff in BH that adds no depth (there's no real strategic reason to prepare for Frustration over Return, since they do the same...

    Ladder Balanced Hackmons

    This isn't really Imposter resistant. Teams with 2 Chansey should always have one happy and one sad, and even teams with one Chansey should strongly consider running sad Chansey (mons that run Return usually aren't built with being anti-imposter in mind, and thus often have other good moves to...

    Ladder Balanced Hackmons

    I would be very surprised if orb strategies that damage the user are ever viable in BH, especially boosting speed instead of attack.
