as a celtics fan this bracket was so beneficial when we were already heavy favorites in the east. only three teams i was worried about were miami, new york and philly. miami wouldn't have beat us but it could've turned into a very ugly six or seven game series very quickly, especially with how...

i think i heard this theory from joyboy on YouTube but i really liked it and it seemed like something oda would do the idea is that oda loves to mirror events that have already occurred in the story, so vegapunk being made of the stella and satellites would mirror the gorosei being satellites...

silver is gonna be so hyped for that lakers warriors game tho gonna be insane ratings

I couldn't believe it when I heard that six (!) teams this year have an offensive rating higher than Sacramento's highest of all time last season (Indiana, Boston, Milwaukee, Philly, OKC, and Atlanta).

I have not played much since DLC2 dropped so please correct me if something has changed, but for those opposed to at least trying to take action on Gold what is your alternative to improve the hazard metagame? To me the options seem to be 1) look at gold, 2) look at 3-4 premier spikes setters...

he was definitely overhyped coming out but he gets absolutely screwed by being on the pistons. he's still trying hard to carry this shit team

I don't have a particularly strong opinion on Urshifu Rapid but as someone who played/watched a lot of Gen 8 OU the reasons I wouldn't want it tested would be mainly be down to its skill at abusing Futureport and the addition of Swords Dance to its toolkit. There is nothing that can answer that...

strongly agree. ppl don't seem to understand the fundamental difference between dropping things that are just Ubers by tiering and things that are Ubers bc they have 700 BST. To drop one of the latter you need to prove it has severe limitations, because without a baseline power level of ~600 BST...

twenty games is a super small sample size and doesn't mean much of anything in a vacuum. there's obviously extreme variations in week to week winrate (samurott hisui with that 18% wr vs moth with 80%). Usage rate is much more important in terms of perceived viability among top players, and they...

i don't really want darkrai tested until the current issues in the meta are fixed, but there are reasonable and well articulated posts advocating for darkrai in ou. just like most of this thread you've gotta sift through the shit to find the good stuff...

hey, not sure which survey you were reading but gambit was on the two most recent surveys. heres the link to the post https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/sv-ou-tiering-surveys.3711911/#post-9843015

I don't necessarily agree with the idea that stored power NEEDS to be banned, but we have already seen the idea that moves don't need to be banned on a majority of users to be banworthy or uncompetitive (this gen especially). The push to nerf Tera by removing Tera Blast is something that has...

I don't have high expectations for harden going forward. the fit with him and westbrook seems middling, feels like harden does everything brodie does but better (minus hustle plays) so they're redundant. as east coast im not able to watch many clippers games, so maybe theres something im missing...

this is suuuuper interesting to me after 1096 too. I assumed the bible was just an aesthetic thing from oda like when there were real animals in old pokemon anime but the increasing prevalence makes me curious to look back and see if theres any christianity represented in other ways throughout...

Damn he's so fluid It stands out even more bc i've been watching porzingis play for us and wemby makes him look super stiff in comparison

even as someone who has enjoyed post timeskip arcs a lot, i would definitely agree with this criticism. it doesnt bug me as much in dressrosa not just bc law is probably my favorite character bc there werent as many expectations with that arc, but oda still just doesn't know how to just leave...

took me completely off guard, thats such an out of nowhere trade bucks still old but god are they scary

have to STRONGLY disagree there. Across every generation, the main reason Volc is allowed to stick around is bc omnipresent Stealth Rock and Heatran being a top 3-5 mon in OU. Even in spite of this, gems were largely banned in gen 5 ou due to the effectiveness of Gems Volc (and Cloyster, but...

unfortunately this aged like fine wine. tatum injury sucks but if they had taken care of business in the first place against this team we wouldn't have been in this situation. Derrick and Rob goated, love those guys. this loss should definitely should be the end of this era of the team though...
