[@stellaleicht4035]

​@@Black_RoseGamingwell he used to be a mod id assume hes good

[@joshuakim5240]

@@Black_RoseGaming Honestly, that makes sense. Smogon players have literally no ability whatsoever to win an uphill battle to the point of nonstop bitching to ban anything that causes them to ever struggle slightly. Pretty sure that not a single one of these OU council mods could survive 1 single hour in the console handheld's 6v6s where tiering doesn't exist, always being put up against mons that they reaction-ban on the spot (they would weep at the sight of so many Flutter Manes, Palafins, and Zacians rather than adapt). These people are so comically inadequate that they actually considered banning Terastallization (the literal only gimmick so far that doesn't increase stats in any way) because they can't handle not knowing a possible Tera type to the point of posting Tera types. Which is hilariously ironic because there's almost no variance in Tera type assignment when it comes to meta play anyways so anyone who spends an hour or so just seeing what everyone is copy-pasting would/could know exactly what everyone else is running without that notice (literally every non-dragonite dragon type runs Tera Steel for example, and Dragonite always runs Tera Normal). Hell, Temp6t has a reputation as a match fixer...and these Smogon council clowns can't beat who they see as a match fixer even when he imposes a self-inflicted, massive handicap. If that's not the most Smogon thing Smogonites could blunder into, i don't know what is.

[@MattressGuy]

@@joshuakim5240 ok grandpa let's get you to bed

THEIR victory?

[@SaskiaTaunted]

its just smogon, breeds so many weak trainers they're so bad because they ban anything that requires a brain to counter xD

[@VestedUTuber]

@@SaskiaTaunted Smogon's only banned a very small handful of things, the tier system is simply meant to sort Pokemon based on how good they are to ensure both players' teams are relatively balanced - even Ubers is its own tier that's actively played. It's so that if you _want_ to run a team of Sableye, Gogoat, Flareon, Ariados, Dedenne and Dachsbun (All ZU tier Pokemon considered not-viable in any main format), you're not forced to have to go up against a team of Gholdengo, Kingambit, Dragapult, Great Tusk, Iron Valiant and Ogrepon-Wellspring. Right now, the only thing in AG tier (the only _actual_ ban list) is Calyrex-Shadow. Some tactics are banned, but mostly things like boosting evasion, putting more than one Pokemon to sleep, running OHKO moves and forcing an infinite battle. Some of the lower tiers have additional rules and clauses.

This was a funny sweep to watch. I especially loved the SpongeBob stall montage, the Corviknight meme, and the part where you explain what's happening with Annihilape before switching to Lechonk so Annihilape can't get HP from Drain Punch.

[@SolstaceWinters]

He didn't die for glory, or for honor, or for the cause. He died doing what he loved. Welcome back, and what a return it is! The memes, walls of texts from people who may or may not know what's about to happen to them, the shenanigans, and of course, the stellar music choices. Great to have you back. I've always found Smogon a mixed bag. I find the tips and "builds" somewhat useful, but I equally find the "presence" it creates a bit of a stick up it's own ass. It's created a thought process of "if it isn't by smogon rules/logic, it's bad", and I get that everywhere. Similarly, a lot of times, I find smogon builds ONLY useful against smogon counters, when I'm just looking for a good build. So I end up just taking inspiration from them, not taking them as gospel, which I'd like to think is the healthy way to look at it.

[@MrInternetHermit]

Not to mention that most of smogen's tourneys are still almost always singles when even at least half or more of official tourneys have been doubles for at least the past two or three generations and there's even talk by officials to retire singles.

It's easy to forget with all the memes and rage baiting, but Temp6t is legitimately great at this game. The lechonk play makes me wonder what niche intentionally low HP mons could have.

loved the dramatic explanation for lechonk's sacrifise! about the rest of the video, this is just my subjective opinion, but i think sometimes less editing is more. i've always liked the well-placed sound effects and the occasional visual edit for emphasis, but staying zoomed in on the pokemon a lot of the time felt a little crowded, and i tend to actually read the showdown battle text to make sure i don't miss out on an important development. the basic zoomed out view itself is interesting as long as there's game to see!

[@Bluethymestrategy]
