    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v2 [Update on Post #5186]

    I was referring to King's Rock discussion from the last gen. I have no idea about this gen. Once it happens even once I have no idea how much you delete because it's deleted. Finch edit: this was not even me deleting the post back then, sir. I am not the only moderator. Me edit: Alright sorry...

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v2 [Update on Post #5186]

    "Norms Bro" Just want to say a few things, especially about council people like Finchinator who are constantly reminding everyone of norms. CONSTANTLY. I think that's a good thing, rulings should be consistent. Finch doesn't believe in this though whenever it gets in the way of anything he wants...

    I think you're underselling how huge that bulk difference is. The difference between 92/115/115 bulk with fairy typing and 80/80/65 with a stealth rock weakness and way worse defensive typing makes chein pao much easier to wear down and revenge kill. Also makes setting up much, much easier. The...

    It must be very easy to live a life where instead of engaging people you write them off as bad people. But either way you just left those comments on my profile to feel good not actually talk, and there isn't much I can do except hope that you feel better (:

    One thing I teach my students is how to conduct a real survey and they learn very quickly how even seemingly asinine changes to phrasing have large impacts on results. This is rather uncontroversial and very well documented.

    And from your response to me, I still don't think you understand how legitimate of a criticism that is. Depending on how I ask he same question I can get 10% approval or 50% approval. You say suspects are not like surveys but they absolutely are. You have to qualify to answer for sure, but they...

    I think online discourse may not be for you. Of course he thinks there are fallacies or irrational thinking in your stance, he disagrees with you! That's okay. While he could certainly be less abrasive, you are certainly driving the conversation down a very negative path. I also see a lack to...

    Maybe I'm a calloused teacher used to people insulting me, but reading your exchange you seem to be the one being a lot ruder than he is. I don't really think his post comes across as hostile, but this one you made absolutely does i.e. calling someone unhinged and psychopathic. The worst he is...

    And instead of addressing any of the post you just stop there because you do not have answers to the post. And then you sit on your high horse and say "I have yet to see anyone with legitimate points against tera." Don't be so smug if you don't even read the opposing arguments. To say that the...

    Now that pokeaim said he wants to keep tera there will be people coming out of the woodwork defending it. There just is no way tera is balanced or competitive in anyway. It is a stupid swing factor that adds so much stochasticity to the game for very little value. Yeah it's cute that you can...

    I was pleasantly surprised of this meta. Mimikyu Stardust was on showdown and gave me a defensive core that was pretty good and I ran this team with it: https://pokepast.es/9be8bd5334dec779 Got about 400 on the ladder with it but I need to switch to houndstone sand before it gets banned (: My...

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

    I feel like people are forgetting how good scarf protean was during some metas in gen 7. Gren will be fine. I even think the scarf set will be fantastic at revenging a lot of broken shit in the early metas. Scarf doesn't care about the nerf for obvious reasons. So this isn't a one-liner... One...

    Shitting on an OU mod for "copy and pasting" when clearly people don't understand lmao. I think it is because well known players used the broken checks broken argument people are okay with it. The generation ending argument is also just saying nothing. Why waste your time with saying nothing...

    Resource SS OU DLC2 Viability Ranking Thread [SEE: Page 105, Post 2618]

    So this is where you decide whether it is more difficult to remove every pokemon with a toxic, or just status the dark type on the opponent's team. Personally, I think pretty much everyone would rather rely on doing the latter rather than the former. It seems kind of strange to be hard walled by...

    Nothing wrong with thinking outside the box, but you have to fill the box first. I am all for interesting sets, I am not super competitive about this game myself. But I think in the meta game discussion thread if you post some random set like that crit mew, or some other off meta mon you should...

    Not to be rude but can we please have some quality control on some of the sets that are being posted in metagame discussion? Golurk being discussed at all, but especially AV, AV tran, and now crit mew. We have a heat thread dedicated to stuff like this. Using offensive mew is already hard to...

    First of all, I think if you're gonna use meme mons golurk is probably among the best. That said, I don't think this is how you should use it at all. With that attack stat, and a 110 power, incredibly spammable stab poltergeist you shouldn't be wasting time with AV. Ghost types are the ultimate...

    Got a clown question/discussion How is everyone limiting Blace:Blacephalon:? This is the mon that to me feels like the most suffocating to play against right now, but nobody is talking about it so I assume it is me being a bad player. My gameplan against on standard teams without a ghost...

    1. Kings rock quick ban. Smart people like Finch made the argument that kings rock is uncompetitive because you are deliberately making the exchange of consistent power for hax potential. A large majority of the player base cited cloyster needing only one or two flinches to win. Finch's argument...

    It wouldn't be suspected (?) I think if it was deemed uncompetitive it would just be quick banned. I don't understand your last argument. If something is being banned because it is uncompetitive that aspect certainly does not change based on the pokemon surrounding it. If banking off of misses...
