congrats on winning even though you're so bad at rby that you can't even comprehend the fact that you got outplayed all three games.
you do not have the slightest clue
how many dogshit switchins you got bailed out on bc I got full paraed when I made the correct click to punish them
how starmie and chansey, the key mons in your g3 victory dodged so many repeated opportunities to get crippled or die
how many blizzards did you leave unparaed chansey in on?
how many bslams did you switch mie into and not get paraed until you were already so far ahead that it didn't matter when i finally got it
you literally aren't even good enough to understand how much better I played than you
thank showdown for deciding that I just don't get the play serious games for two straight RBYPLs
I would be 5-0 right now if sets were decided purely on how well the two sides played, but instead I'm 1-4
enjoy being the complete fraud that you are
"Unfortunate" doesn't begin to describe my series, this game rewards blind luck and nothing else, I am beyond convinced at this point. After getting completely tooled by scheduling with my opponent changing times on me last minute and refusing to provide confirmation prior to the day of the match as to play times, losing this way somehow felt even worse than I had thought possible. My preparation was superior, my play was superior, and I lost, so I don't see a reason to continue engaging in an activity where what is within my control is overwhelmingly outweighed by what is not. I am done with competitive Pokemon, and you won't get a fond farewell. This community is infected to its roots with a degenerative disease that grows stronger over time but stops short of killing its host. Tournaments used to have a competitive spirit at their heart, this has been transplanted and replaced with an artificial organ that feeds on vitriol and mockery from insecure little boys that heckle by the sidelines and tear each other to shreds over scraps of attention. The environment we fostered has trapped us all like this in a vicious cycle, and escaping it requires acceptance of the harshest reality we all scramble to explain away, that none of the countless straining efforts we put ourselves through here will ever amount to one single shining glimmer of significance. I would make this the end, but World Cup is still ongoing, and I would never leave so many great friends out to dry, so I'll suffer through a few more games for them. One last thing before I leave you all to react with disdain, ridicule, and self-righteous fervor, before you do everything in your power to minimize my words and thoughts, box them up and shove them to some cobwebbed corner of your memory, and hope they disappear forever as a stain on your finite time ground to dust. From this moment on, nothing you say matters to me. The foulest insults you hurl with intent to wound will calmly settle at the earth before my feet, and the venom you spit will bring all the pain of a warm summer breeze. You are less than anything you can conceive, while I carry on, brimming with joy distilled from detachment.
please refrain from posting this weak ass stuff in my vicinity and accept the loss like how you should have the day of, this is really immature behavior coming from you and i'd only want to expect positivity to come of it after this reply sends. if you'd like to talk about it you are free to do so, i have been grinding and researching the game only to have been disregarded you, the better player, shouldn't your category of player be the more appreciative that i won?
