The point is the game is not just a 1v1 situation so completely discounting the support options from teammates is not a good idea. And this wasn't the case for previous suspects. I understood your point perfectly but I don't think fighting is "mid" at all so that point is irrelevant to me. I...

Few quick ground noms, couple are echoing what some others have said before too. :Landorus: --> S This is an easy S rank, almost as much of a mandatory bring as :Clodsire: in my eyes. Lando is ground's best combination of speed/power/support and it fits easy on whatever team style you choose...

Your opponent did a good job stopping hazards with taunt torn in the early game. Big thing I noticed is that you didn't attack it all. I would have attacked Kyurem with Clefable rather than risk losing Weavile. Either knock its specs off or moonblast for good damage. The most Clef was...

I addressed most of these points already from the ground prospective in my post. The calcs you provided don't mean much when you have teammates that you'll always be using that can easily deal with the mons mentioned bar one. And again even in that match-up Bloodmoon is still very good. Ground...

Nice that this thread is active, going for reqs so thought I'd comment here. Leaning towards ban because the mon is almost textbook busted but I'll miss clicking buttons with it if it leaves. The free item slot is something that's scarcely been brought up as of yet and that's something that...

Offense is still the most popular playstyle and probably always will be this generation, which is fine. It's just not as common as it was previously. There's a lot more balance teams especially than there used to be in my opinion. Before, I swear every other game was Glimm or Hamurott lead +...

Compared with the past couple months? Yes. Felt like every other game was Glimmora and 3 paradox mons. Now I run into balance and stall as well as offense.

It's the 15th most used mon in the tier with 14.69% usage at 1825+ ELO. Higher than Kyurem when it was suspected. It would be nice but there's no way of tracking tera types. To make this a longer post, I'm seeing a lot less HO spam than I have the past couple months at every level.

Dragapult was also banned right after Kingambit because of Z-moves. Without Pult and Gambit in the tier Gholdengo is much stronger in addition to your point about blocking defog.

I would try it with sub instead of bug buzz, that way you don't even worry about sucker punch. You'd still lose to Moon but you pretty much always will anyway. With this you'd have a Chandelure that can boost it's speed, sounds fun to use just to troll Dragonite. Volc can 1v1 Heatran without...

I never understood the memes either. Anybody who looked at Darkrai's stats/movepool and thought it would fall off after the sleep ban was crazy. Honestly, I think it's better than Moon because of how much variety it has. Coverage options hit everything hard, sludge bomb + tera poison is great...

Urshifu Rapid might be okay but I don't know if we need another strong wall-breaker. Punching glove removes a lot of the counterplay to rapid strike while still powering up its moves, although it does block unseen fist. At least it's vulnerable to Rilla and Bolt I guess. This is definitely a lot...

I'm sure this has been said before at some point but I haven't seen it mentioned recently. The reason defog's distribution is so limited now is because there's no defog TM in the game. You can only get it by level up and breeding which is why Corv still has it. This wasn't done on purpose like...

I'd like to give some thoughts as a ladder player. If you agree or disagree that's cool because we all want to improve the tier in our own ways. This tier is pretty fun to play but some of the top threats feel a bit ridiculous and I think that limits things. At least Bax is gone now though...
