    Project SV OU Teambuilding Competition

    Discord server I was in wanted to build a triple-Protean team after Gren dropped and I threw this together, gotta say for some gimmicky mid it's actually quite fun. Since they're all U-Turners who can abuse each other's checks and force a lot of switches I figured it'd be easy to capitalise off...

    Resource SV OU Viability Ranking Thread [ UPDATE: POST #751 ]

    S- to S Big Tuskus has been and continues to be the Lando-T of Gen 9 so far. It's one of the most splashable and effective glue mons for almost any team structure barring anything super fat (which as a style isn't the most viable now as a whole), and it has the ability to fit almost any role...

    Metagame [SPOILERS] Scarlet & Violet OU Discussion [BAN LIST POST 626]

    Pao will still hold the advantages as Weav's Knock was only at its strongest when the opposing Mon's item was still held while crunch retains its power as well as spamability vs passives due to its Def drop chances; it can do this with much less risk now as well with the absence of Scald and the...

    I feel like the Regen argument is being watered down into somewhat circular points that side-skirt the main arguments. Getting rid of Stall and making the meta more 'fun' are not cases for a Regen clause, however there is a case to be made for Regen clause beyond those non-points that actually...

    Gonna disagree with this batch drop to an extent. T-Tar and Hippo are pretty hard to compare because they don't have much in the ways of similarities besides setting Sand but their roles and generally the kind of team structures they fit on and support are much more varied. Hippo is a bulky...

    My brother, I'm going to make the assumption that you're not trolling but genuinely want to contribute to the discussions, and while it's great to show an interest and have the enthusiasm in the game none of what you've been posting since we've seen you around in the Metagame Discussion thread...

    Announcement np: SS OU Suspect Process, Round 12 - Monster Mash

    My brother in Christ, you have completely missed the point. I, and others, am saying that we believe this Mon is plain not broken. We do however believe that the meta is not perfect but can be improved with subsequent suspects but these suspects are going to require a little more foresight than...

    Announcement np: SS OU Suspect Process, Round 12 - Monster Mash

    While it would give my post a lot more credibility if I were to have made reqs at this point, I wanted to make it now anyway just to strike while the iron is hot because there's been lots of posts pushing back against some standard suspect convention for very good reasons due to the...

    Thanks. I was actually expecting a potential drop for this reason, with the meta adapting to running multiple answers to it on effective teams and the popularity of Scarf Lele + Fu it's definitely not what it was when it cracked into the S rankings. Not to debate its position or nominate it for...

    Gonna agree with everything here but I couldn't not Haha your post given how much of a 180 it is compared to how outspoken you'd been about Weav just a few post back in this thread. The meta definitely has a good range of defensive and offensive options to deal with Weav that most team...
