why would the 2023 bw circuit top 16 and even the 2023 bw cup top 8 be grandfathered in to vote on a retest but not those who laddered and got reqs for the original test in 2024? isn't the whole point of this retest to give those who were screwed by voting in a botched suspect the chance to...

already posted in the other thread but i have a couple more comments: :cloyster: while i sympathize with people's distaste for the pkmn, i think a lot of vitriol surrounding it ignores the upsides cloyster brings to the tier. the effect of its diversity in sets (spike cannon/mixed) is...

if jirachi is banned metagross can't fill its roles easily at all. they're totally different pokemon. i'm down for a jira-less slot in dpppl i think that's a good idea. as you saw in spl, froslass ban changed basically nothing about the tier. jirachi isn't looked at because of what you said...

i would still be strongly against any action on jirachi. i don't think it can just be slapped on every single team. jirachi lacks inherent offensive power that many other pokemon have, so it's not suitable for heavily offensive teams. it's undeniable that jirachi is not the most centralizing...

i know this is a dead end at the moment but i have to say it: i don't find this to be sufficient justification to not act on sand force. this isn't comparable to removing tail glow to preserve manaphy. there are no other offensive pokemon except excadrill that can make use of sand force. as the...

wondering why we can't just ban sand force when the ability is clearly problematic in bw. this is the only generation where sand force exists and we have permasand. surely this isn't a complex ban and falls within tiering policy? either way, suspecting excadrill has my support. while i still...

it's thanks to fakes that i got reqs so easily during the cloyster volcarona suspect. i farmed him on ladder 4 or 5 times in a row, which surprisingly boosted my gxe by quite a bit. thanks, fakes.

Excal World OU Yes for captain

latios is the most broken pokemon in this tier. in a metagame dominated by permasand, sand force is problematic. it swings defensive matchups way too harshly, and counterplay to sd drill while using a slower team is extremely limited (see me running fuckin shed shell rock smash counter skarm in...

it's evident that traditional rain structures are not providing the foundation to excel against current metagame threats/compositions. rain still has potential, but the structure needs some reinvention -- sensei's team against fakes most recently demonstrated that rain structures can circumvent...

Week 2: 3/5 Week 3: 2/5 Week 4: 3/5 Week 5: 5/5 Overall: 15/25 Le Don vs Void - Highlight of the week. Void's teams have been by far the best of the tournament, and he backs it up with gameplay strong enough to push his building advantages against his opponents. Once I saw Void getting support...

i found this game to be a very interesting one. don't agree that it was just a boring stallfest. both teams are very standard, known teams. the standard hippo jira stall against the skarm + sciz + mag core. on paper you'd expect pideous to have mu, as shed skarm is a huge pain for the skarm sciz...

this is not a clear situation of conflicting schedules due to varying timezones. they are 4 hours apart. this is a clear situation of one player providing insufficient and unreasonable availability to get the game done. based on this decision, a player can be forced to play at 2am their time or...
