Competitive League Circuit 11 - LouisCyphre vs Hyjack

[Hyjack]

/forfeit gg

If I order "Electroweb ~ [Clear Smog + Defog] ~ Protect" to stall for 2nd order on Aggron and remove your boosts,
Aggron is still slower, horse still have life orb, and I don't win the damage race
Horse comes in at 83hp (and +2 SPA), drops to 72hp assuming Life Orb 2 hits
Aggron could pull some metal burst bullshit, but
Head smash does 21/hit
Shadow Ball does 14/hit if no drops

Other plays: [E-terrain + Discharge] To fish for para, then bring in Aggron with Choice Scarf
Taunt, to force attacks into Metal Burst (but horse has combo token to bypass Taunt)

Encore isn't a move

Confusion does not work without Taunt forcing attacks into Aggron

Corrosive Gas furns 14/hit into 11/hit, but the spikes and boosts stay

I could choice scarf for 8 subs, but to write 8 subs and lose anyway hurts

Rest is no

Good match thank you cityscapes for the commentary and timely reffing

Objective -> Paralyze Horse, Exploit Paralysis, ???, Profit

@ nothin
A pulse of affirmation washes over the arena

= = =
[Electric Terrain + Discharge] ~ Thundershock ~ Taunt
= = =
Start of Step 2
If Paralysis is absent from opponent
push orders back and order Electroweb

Fearing the worst from Lou's boosted Spectrier, Hyjack banks everything on a Discharge paralysis--and gets it! Spectrier will be unable to move during one step next round, and is also significantly slowed. Will this be enough?

-57 HP, -18 EN
-8 HP, -33 EN

In the final round of the match, Hyjack orders Aggron to play incredibly carefully, guarding against any attack Spectrier might attempt to give time for the paralysis to set in. Lou uses this opportunity to seek refuge and heal off the paralysis, but unfortunately for him, the lingering electricity from Plasmanta's combo doesn't allow his ghostly horse a moment's rest. Hyjack capitalizes on this, sending Aggron to take down Spectrier once and for all.

What an incredible show! Well-done by Hyjack to decide not to give up even in the face of a very dangerous foe and play for any possible win, and of course kudos are also due to Lou for setting up such a threat in the first place. Overall, this was a really cool offensive game where early aggression by both sides turned into a tricky endgame that could've gone either way. Thank you all for watching!
