PREMIERE! TIMI To Masters Rank Pokémon Unite

[@spragels]

We are back! It’s time to climb to master rank the way timi wants us to

[@CheemsVinh]

lose opportunity to say "it's timi to climb to master rank"

[@cobrakai8049]

I can say, with work and school I barely make it to masters every season. And even in the Mewtwo meta I had overall fun games the whole time. It's weird that the higher rank you get the worst matches you get.

[@robwolfe7316]

GG spragels

[@ShiniGGami]

​@@cobrakai8049no that's wrong. In lower ranks it's fun because everyone is bad and doesnt play well Then, in mid elo it is really frustrating and at higher elo it gets increasingly better

[@cobrakai8049]

@ShiniGGami just not my experience. Most my team mate work together...no reason I should try to explain my self to you tho.

[@Buphido]

Recently had a match where we were behind by 300 points. Teammates wanted to quit multiple times but enough folks still wanted to at least give Ray a go. Lo and behold, we lose most of the fights at Ray, but steal it anyway. And the opponents surrendered IMMEDIATELY, despite being ahead by a lot in points!

[@joeg5617]

I love that this RtM is basically guaranteed to tilt your teammates with the builds

[@spragels]

Haha yes it will

[@cobrakai8049]

RtM

[@erkhardtify]

If I saw him in one of my games I wouldn't be tilted at all. Good players are good players.

[@joeg5617]

@@erkhardtify if you didn't know it was Jake, you wouldn't know if it was a good player. If I saw a rando queue up with assault vest-rocky helm-focus band Lapras on my team at the last match before Masters, I know I'd at least start to get frustrated

[@ArtoriasTheBingeWatcher]

Whats RtM?

[@ChengFrancine]

Love your Road to Masters! I remember freaking out seeing your name in the Battle Data, didn't (notice 'till after.) I was the slow Goomy cause my toddler was trying to fall off the stairs 🤪 3:34

[@spragels]

Very kind of you!! Thank you

[@aquablast3155]

23:27 - What a good move by that Trev, pushing the two of you away from Ray.

[@Timikyu]

i wish you could see the numbers of the items you equipped at the stat screen, would love to know how much damage rocky helmet has done during the match for example

[@spragels]

that would be amazing for players

[@HawiiesLair]

I love to have magikarp to Master next season

[@spragels]

Have to

[@LetBenCook]

PLEASE

[@abra_escaped]

Every game try to evolve as late as possible. This is Magikarp to masters, not Gyarados to masters

[@kangarookangaroo702]

But just Magikarp. No Gyarados.

[@NewbyNinja3]

You could also add this rule to this timi series: you should play which ever pokemon is at the front image when you got the the license shop. e.g this week its blaziken and mimikyu. i guess it means you can only play two pokemon at a time which is dull

[@cobrakai8049]

Yeah and normally the Pokémon they show are broken at the time.

[@pinklikemizutsune3336]

Thank you for being respectful to Mr. Pult, he’s been having confidence issues in the current meta and loved the feature.

[@bebzzzy02]

The second fight was intense. We love Spragels!! 👌🏼♥️

[@CalibratedGamer]

You're using TiMi's recommended settings, so they gave you recommended teams and the recommended Unite experience

[@aquablast3155]

5:28 - I guess I have been going around saying this (well, mainly about Char), but this is the Lv4->Lv5 threshold some people can't overcome as a starter mon (but Squirtle really has much better last-hitting compared to what Charmander has-- Charmander literally has the worst starting skills for last-hitting). That said, the enemy Squirtle isn't near their passive EXP cap yet, as of this timestamp, so... just really behind in farming, I guess? Will have to see if the Squirtle actually gets stuck at Lv4 or not.

[@aaliyan22]

Love this concept to show TIMI doesn't always know what they are saying.

[@Totolaser7]

doesn’t *ever* know

[@TheKingBLOOZ]

Pokemon Unite has a severe lack of easily accessible and helpful information and it feels deliberately awful. A new player should not have to look at external guides or tutorials to be given the proper information needed to play the game in a productive manner, actually useful and accurate info should be readily available in game and easy/accessible for players to find and use. There's no reason why new players should have to search up KZbin videos telling you why Leftovers is bad after you already leveled it up to max because TiMi said it would be a really good item on your Lucario.

[@vibinmikegothyped3270]

@@TheKingBLOOZ LMAO true

[@gr8vegetables]

your RtM videos make for an entertaining way to start the day. after each season I always wonder what crazy thing you’ll be trying next. keep it up content cowboy 🤠

[@samichukwins2696]

my favourite cowboy posted 🤠 road to master's also my favourite series

[@spragels]

Love you

[@aquablast3155]

14:27 - Happens so often to me too, when I'm playing EXP Share Lapras.

[@JohnathanHyde.]

Awww, Jake discovering the magic of Pokemon is amazing. Pokemon games get really dull when you play them over and over in the way they were intended. What makes them more fun and adds new elements is when you make your own challenges or set your own restrictions during a playthrough. This is why Nuzlocking and Speedrunning are so big in the Pokemon community. This isn't limited to the main series games either, this applies to all games of the Pokemon franchise with maybe the exception of Cafe Remix and GO. It's awesome to see you having fun with the game though I will admit that the quality of my games right now seem to be a lot better before hitting Masters. So Ultra has something going for it in terms of quality games right now which I enjoyed win or lose.

[@Mukduck619]

Love these RTM series so much 💪

[@spragels]

Glad you enjoy them

[@LongLive-fan8]

Ultra and Veteran seem to be just better as they're trying to actually get to Master

[@DedenArdika]

Happy birthday Spragels

[@yamanbharadwaj5b603]

Did anybody else noticed that the wartotle didn't evolved at lvl 7. I think it was recorded before

[@spragels]

Yup first two eps are pre buffs

[@kirby7775]

For the recommended Timi movesets you could use the moveset 1/ moveset 2 examples

[@ultimatex1334]

Love the fact that Sableye made it in lol, love the little guy.

[@thespiciestavocado5910]

GIVE MY GREMLIN BUFFS

[@FoxItAll]

Lapras with assault vest and an emblem build for def/sdef makes for a mageslayer. I target attacker's and dominate that lane.

[@MightySquishy69]

15:25 brother that poor Haunter

[@jennyperpa5302]

I'm really looking forward to thus particular climb to master!

[@gmtuv8978]

“Mega Mewtqo WHYYy” lol bruh Love your vids btw

[@-G-.]

i really do enjoy playing on my alt at the end of a season. better games for sure. don't know why that is either but it helps me continue to enjoy the game.

[@bulbabrayplays]

Bring back the mic that you were using in mewtwo to masters it was so funny

[@spragels]

I will have to for a few games

[@Patrick-bm2is]

The deci in second battle did pretty well as compared to other deci mains these days

[@Efex_6IX]

I hate to say it but Master is where I practice the mons I'm working on.

[@7BlackMamba7]

Almost at 200k subs! 🎉🎉

[@jacobcolley1899]

Meanwhile my ultra games have multiple games of people farming and backcapping during Ray fights and never rotating from their lanes

[@king_scarxiii8229]

I haven’t played since 2021 and I didn’t know sableeye was in the game. Time to redownload lol

[@Catberyi]

This is such a fun concept, I can't wait to see you try to work with Timis awful builds.

[@LazyOniichan]

23:40 These games are good becaz we watch ur guides Jake I got to masters in 3 weeks after downloading the game with my friends and ur vid helped a lot . Love the Road to masters series

[@iso2885]

teammates been feeling better lately for me also...i dont mind losing games if my team plays well

[@FTotox]

People in master rank struggle with superstar syndrome, if they are not getting their 100k game with their hyper carry too feel they are better than everyone, they throw and troll because they don't know how to teamplay...

[@uWAVES]

WOOOO

[@MarieV2]

23:52 I felt that genuine confusion lmao I totally felt the same about my personal experience with path to masters. Me & my teammates and the enemy team were actually TRYING our best to win our games. (I'm on AU region btw) I have experienced more teamwork, more logical thinking like focusing on objectives or farming exp when there are a lot of farm available, and more enjoyment in general. As a matter of fact, I prefer my games when I'm Ultra rather than my path to 1600 Masters. They are much more solid games that I don't mind loosing, since me and my teammates at least tried doing our best and fighting together~ Also, I'm excited to binge-watch this series. 😅I've already watched "Duos to Masters", "Random Builds to Masters", "Troll to Masters" and "Jungle Invade to Masters" multiple times as I do my journaling and studying. I don't know if you realise, but your videos are a nice background podcast/music that helps me focus. It's like a spragels radio 🤣 Love your vids spragels~

[@smalls4325]

Yee

[@flippyrae]

How does exp share when around multiple allies?

[@absolutelynot615]

You should team with a random viewer that has a negative win rate and call it "Road to masters lil' Timmy edition"

[@spragels]

lol

[@bembywemby]

what music do you use?

[@zBurlz]

PokemonUnite works like a lot of other competitive games. You see some solid games in Gold and then everything turns to trash in Plat.

[@thespiciestavocado5910]

I pray for gremlin buffs so much, please timi

[@genisisdawn]

It’s funny I’ve been seeing a lot more greninjas now. Honestly I think in the current meta greninja is in a decent spot. Although play rough mimikyu just demolishes him.

[@flippyrae]

Release all road to master episodes/days at once for binging? 😅

[@fattyratz2474]

Could you do a glaceon guide ?

[@kamx1]

Yeehaw apparently... 😮

[@ikokwee]

Really starting to hate it when people just throw the game like the Mimi at 12:30 - 12:45 Team could have nailed a decent comeback if it weren't for it's rant afking at base. Like, plenty of matches could be salvaged even if the team loses Ray, especially when having the lead but oh no, people rather get into "sitting duck" mode and try to tilt others by "Thanks!" spamming :/ My goodness.

[@ShiniGGami]

timi, it's time to update your recommended builds! Just copy the most used items by the top 3 that always works

[@cobrakai8049]

29:32 100% agreed. I think we should only start with 100 master rank points. If you loose them you restart in ultra.

[@cobrakai8049]

I don't understand the need of start at 1200.... makes you feel like you already did something in masters.

[@B34STLYF1GHT3R]

I feel like once people get to master rank a lot of them stop caring about climbing so they just decided to play however they want.

[@Zantcalk]

Yeehaw!

[@1411assassin]

Do you play on pad how to do this ?

[@manni-by1sx]

Yes I'm the first and here we come masters

[@spragels]

Yeah boi!

[@spragels]

Thank you!

[@dharshanff8832]

And I like your game play

[@yo-kaikid1925]

definitely not smart going dragon dance into dragonite, blastoise, and gengar but still a good game

[@cinderare]

You use recommended build not from top players build, first one is attacker looks like from top players, recommended would be float stone muscle band scope lens

[@cobrakai8049]

Which pokemon do TiMi suggest to wear stacking items?

[@Takxicity]

Oh no! They've brainwashed Jake! Someone stop them before they make him feel normal towards sa B tier!

[@ALV5252]

Ultra players want to play well to get to Masters.

[@cleanmf1]

Your MMR is definitely lower on this account, (from past RtM runs) & thats probably giving you decent teammates for once

[@lexderp2766]

This was recorded a while ago! I didn’t even realize until I saw a wartortle level 7 not evolved.

[@misterfevillord1588]

Spragles became a bot

[@a..675]

managed to get both of the least supporting supporters

[@zachpatterson9010]

I honestly feel like that would solve A LOT of the matchmaking issues, if people could fall out of Master rank it would rout through all of the trolls and people who don't play correctly and make the matches much better and less frustrating

[@ecid1176]

Nah i think we lowkey need them to add a few ranks We go Beginner Great Veteran Ultra And Masters I think they should add two need tiers. Ace after Ultra And Elite Keeps the pokemon theme going and they make it so the point system remains for Elite and you can drop out of elite. But once you get to Masters you still can't drop out but by that point Elite and Ace would've filtered the stragglers. Additionally they need to put people with negative win rate overalls with each other and positive win rate players together. Its perplexing that you can legit get an entire team of players who's overall data indicates they're a consistently bad player but you still have to pair with them.

[@Belesprit656]

I had the weirdest ranked game yesterday, surrender like a minute into the game. I was like wait, that's not possible. My rank stayed the same and it said the game ended early because two or more players couldn't play. It was strange seeing one enemy.

[@tuff360]

It’s a new thing. If one of ur teammates or a person on the enemy team is afk at the very start of the match. The team with the afk can vote if they want to play the match or not

[@thevaliantheroes8866]

Timi tells us series sounds amazing.

[@pokefan-47]

My fav unite again with a new master series

[@tonicconverse]

Bro the other day I was going hard as sableye really pulling some nice saves and I got ko'd BUT all four teammates converge immediately starting with one angry crustle who got a 3-streak😂

[@ibriselric2]

“Every time I do RtM it makes me love this game!” Anybody wanna remind him of the “Comfey only” run or… yeah, we should probably leave it like that…

[@Monkeyfuzz]

I rarely see Barrier Mime nowadays.

Somethings wrong with masters lmao

[@regal222]

TIMI would never steer us wrong, right?

[@damp2269]

paid actors... all of them! no afk, one surrender, no double junglers, not 3 ppl going in one lane..... not unite. lol. jokes aside great games. PS: forgot the classic ninetales with leftovers and attack weights.

[@shawnlyons6543]

That's what happens when you allow people into Master rank by playing brain dead pokemon and the pokemon gets nerf. I'm looking at you mew2 Y players. :😜
