UNAWARE CLEFABLE UNLEASHED! Pokemon Draft League | SPL Week 1

[@Silver-Arm]

I like how half of the battle is just you trying to deal with Crocalor

[@taeilmoonify]

And all the while yawning and slacking off

[@noah_of_babylon]

Average PU game

[@thefreshvince879]

1 online battle is 10x slower than 10 showdown battles

[@BossVonD]

No knock off, no croc off

[@nolanstone4723]

He would have been better off just sleep foddering something, but Joeys 2 endgame mons just couldn't effectively setup after that Ting-Lu sneaky move.

[@harryw3310]

What an opening game that is, Viz making a massive statement early on, that facade was genius

[@superbarukun]

The editing on the team breakdown is incredible. It's so stylish and easy to follow. Seriously, big props to your editor.

@@Nako3 hmmmm. I don't really see cause it's easy to read, easy to follow, not too many annoying transitions, plus it's only like 3 minutes. But to each their own ig.

[@Howl_3DN]

I agree I think it was well done

[@LordEmvee]

And so it begins excited for this season

[@GameMaster-sh7tr]

What a crazy game, Viz is a top tier threat this season. These sets were crazy

not that far off from what actually happened tbh

Ting lu does it again

[@TheJragon14]

Kind of annoying that this comment is at the top. I saw this comment before even beginning the video. What’s the point of watching now 😭

[@skinnyjeans1622]

I saw this and got a bit annoyed but decided to watch anyway 😂 nice troll, I applaud

[@josephlund3849]

I saw this halfway through the match and was thinking damn does he really not take out this baby croc 😂

[@schwa2585]

I love how croc didnt even run out of slack offs.

[@schwa2585]

Spoiler You might have lost, but this was the best introduction to Viz we could get. That's how you build up the hype.

[@JblazeTK]

Your team explanation at the starts sells me every time on the video love the amount of effort you give these videos!

[@exeggutivejudge3747]

Bruh, Viz cooked with that Facade Ting Lu. Even I got caught off guard

[@fattiejones6725]

The intro graphics look fiiiire this season🔥 hyped to follow this one too

[@nolanstone4723]

Viz's team on preview just looks so good. You pretty much know 5 of the mons hes gonna bring and you still know its gonna be a hard game.

[@TheClutchUDF]

The pink blob will always remain the image of Pokémon that scares pro players

[@viz]

can't believe bro got 6-0'd by curse crocalor 🔥

[@schwa2585]

It was sick how you killed three mons with ghost type curse, then clicked tera and used the same move to set up.

[@Vortex_2323]

I love how the team breakdowns are down, very fast, informative, and very visually appealing, props to the editor. Keep up the amazing work Joey and team!

[@olivervickman638]

This is one of those games where, in hindsight, it really makes you think "wow Taunt is a really good move"

[@lordmonarch2995]

Viz is an underrated battling genius and you’re an OG. You both battled stupendously! The match honestly could’ve gone either way. You should definitely keep doing drafts because you seem passionate about it and if you can see if you can get Shofu and Haydunn in there for the next draft but please don’t forget to invite Viz it’s always a pleasure seeing him battle!

[@btu1734]

That prep was absurd. Of course I’m cheering on Joey but you’ve really gotta give it up to Viz that was not only excellently prepped, but also immaculately played

[@LotoTheHero]

Viz's team was absolute 🔥🔥🔥! Can't wait to see the how the rest of this draft plays out. 😁👍

[@tsumo1]

THE CROCALOR PICK IS CRAZY..

[@Toesef]

I don't understand the reasoning behind the pick, can you explain it?

[@quacc6705]

@@Toesef Good bulk for an eviolite mon. In draft, only lower power mons can tera, so having eviolite to be bulky and the ability to tera was probably desired.

[@btu1734]

@@Toesefoverall just a very bulky Mon with unaware when considering Tera. As you saw, crocalor sits on Joey’s team. Spdef takes on Thund-T and Dragapult while Phys Def always walls Quavo

[@LucidProtean]

That Croc man... I feel like letting it sleep a Pokemon so it couldn't Yawn spam anymore would've helped make it less annoying to deal with, but i don't know who you let become Asleep. Probably a Pokemon that can come in on Ribombee relatively safe to burn sleep turns, but not someone like Heatran that you need to beat the Croc. Ggs to Joey, he was right that this is probably his worst matchup in the league, but I'm confident in his team that we can bounce back next week

[@reillygilligan9892]

So hype for this draft season good luck!

[@WPS578]

Damn that Ting-lu Facade. I didn't really expect Viz to win knowing he hasn't played draft in a long ass time. he still go it.

I was itching for this one Joe. Better win the whole damn series.

[@SlyCub]

The way I audibly gasped on that Ting-Lu turn.... Jesus what an insane game Viz is crazy for that

Wow the facade definitely threw me off ! GGs to the both of you

[@viniciusbarbosa5542]

Insane start, insane editing. Keep going strong Joey, you got this

[@TylerDeLucaTV]

I’m always so impressed with the intro breakdowns and the visuals that pair with them. Incredible as always!!

[@ShotofCyanide1]

Aim I love how your title gave nothing away. Really thought you were going to pull some magic out there at the end with Clef lol. Anyway gl in your future games, your the GOAT man.

[@Deadlystrike25]

that was a very cold start. Your opponent brought the heat and you brought the most basic stuff man. Gotte heat it up in the following weeks man

[@JosephHk743]

This was an uphill game due to Viz pretty much covering a good amount of your team through his versatility. The defensive mons were certainly the biggest pain.

[@NebulaAlterna]

Insane start to the league, wow!

I fully expect viz to go damn near undefeated. Like his sets were crazy. Really didnt expect full offensive crcolor with tera fire flame charge but that thing was a monster

[@CheapShotFail]

So glad to see Viz back in draft and great way to start off the season with such a crazy match! Super fun to watch from both perspectives, especially your reaction to the facade. Can't wait to see how the season turns out for both of you!

If Viz didn't tech Facade on Lu there's a high chance Quack sweeps right then and there man, shoutout Viz that Ting-Lu set is 🔥

[@Necrostevo]

Yes Clefable action!! I have never seen a Crocolar take so many hits before.

[@krzysztofswierzy4226]

I can't praise enough this content. I always loved design of competetive gameplay in Pokemon, but at the same time I hated conventional 1v1 and 2v2 formats, with terribly repetitive metagame and minimum pokemon variety due to many tier divisions. This custom draft format is all I ever wished for pokemon versus, and your editing and commentary make it glorious experience ! :)

[@pokeaimMD]

Ty fam!

[@TheLindomar]

27:19 I KNOW IM A LITTLE LATE BUT..... that play was insane, that prep tech attack smack ! also glad that these Draft League Battles are back ! SIUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

My friends run a draft league with item clause and honestly it makes prep so much more interesting.

[@platypuspatrol9625]

So glad to see more Draft content, always look forward to the next upload on Sundays! Plus your team looks absolutely cracked this season

[@chukadoo1871]

adding the lil' bits of info as joey says it is really cool. nice teambuilding section! halfway through the battle i was commending Viz's patience with the Lu-ser. i know i wouldve had it out at least a few times. fun battle! also requesting a BSS spotlight sometime if you find a fun team or set, Dr. MD

[@dannydunn794]

Viz always used to battle against WeedleTwineedle back in the gen 7 days, fun to see him doing big things and playing great

[@TimG57867]

Dang that was a rough battle. Probably the turn that tipped the battle was not going for Flash Cannon a 2nd time on the Crocolar but Will O Wisp was a fair play. Viz just called it. Hopefully this fight gave good data.

[@scottcrocker3265]

Yo Editor went hard on that intro. The graphics look sick

Really unfortunate that Viz predicted you’d use boots to fake Magic Guard leading into him pulling a Role Play on Metronome Dragonite. And then watching him Tera Steel and get up 6 dragon dances and sweep that was rough
