THWACKEY'S LAST STAND! Pokemon Draft League | SPL Semifinals

[@TheUziGunner]

Always a pleasure to be able to play against you my brother. I'm so glad that after all these years we were able to make it happen and have it be a good one! GG and here's to Evil Emvee finishing his story in what's next!

[@Porpoise0fLight]

gg

[@bood6162]

Who said his story’s finished…? DLC 2 tbc…

[@Suddapon]

@@bood6162 maybe the redemption arc where the villain joins the heros

[@joaosousa988]

Now go and win it all!! 💪

[@terminator9876able]

Wait, so we don’t get to see you fling the big nugget!? Gutted! Well played, great content 😁

[@LordEmvee]

sad cuz i was gonna bring bulk up fling big nugget thundurus for finals 🥲

[@AvaluggEnjoyer420]

@@LordEmvee whens the AV wo-chien video dropping lil bro?

[@ryanharrelson6935]

Joey almost used it last week against Don.

[@quirinobrescia6113]

Thwackey's last stand sounds like a Pokémon TV special. Great battle, its crazy how essential those rocks were.

[@Suddapon]

The moral of the story is that evil never wins 😢, so sad you didn't make to finals, but i hope in the next draft comes the redemption arc ;)

[@Sponsie1000]

Some say this is a sad ending for the EvilEmvee arc, but imagine how epic it would be if FormerEmvee (bearer of the non-evil ursaluna) defeats Joey in finals and goes on to prove to his evil version that being evil is not the way..! Especially since it's Uzi, since l feel like a storyline like this would be straight out of Xenoblade :] You may be sad to be stopped in your evil tracks, but mayhaps you simply needed to be shown that following the path of virtue and goodness might still yield prosperity and truth, and thus dispelling your need/reason/desire to become EvilEmvee in the first place! Where EvilEmvee sought revenge, Uzi will be the embassador of Righteousness and show you the ultimate path to salvation!

[@pixelfire86]

Dudunsparce looks so silly vibrating while partially phased into the floor.

[@terebat.]

Loved this draft league, we saw unbelievable domination and the villain emerge. The whole league cowered in fear, and then out of a storm the foundation crumbled and a hero was revealed. It’s sad but it was an unbelievable run for evil Emvee

[@heffayguap]

Losing to a cracked hedgehog, no shaymin that! Great season Emvee, hugely entertaining, thank you!

[@tomashogberg8514]

Was …challenging Uzi, Emvee’s first mistake?

[@saga-rebelion]

Considering the clip at the end, an Ogerpon forme would be cool for the next league. Great season Emvee, you did amazing overall.

[@kevincorso9757]

haha that end scene! hell of a season milord, one of my favorites & it took a basically perfect counterteam to bring it down. looking forward to the "to be continued"!

GOAT thanks man

[@themainevent381]

King shit right there

[@aaronm12500]

GG it’s Evil Emvee Didn’t turn out the way we all hoped, but thank you for the great draft content!! This season was awesome. And this battle just means that Evil Emvee will have to seek even more vengeance next time… 😈 Also, that end cutscene was perfect. This is why we love the channel lmao

[@dylansullivan565]

Was pulling for you! Damn that was wild, he had his own plot armor lol you played great this season. Thank you for the awesome content!

[@calebnelson4932]

Hey man, it was an amazing run. 8-2 is a savage draft run. Also back to back top 3 placements in leagues is crazy. Plus You're still the king of Speed draft (I'd love to see some more of that content)

[@Blimaxx]

This was a beary beary good battle

[@niekvanderleest8366]

What a tough loss, I really enjoyed watching these videos monday morning before work. Hope to see more draft leauge some day!

[@pranavg1487]

Noooooo emvee! I'm happy for Uzi's win but also sad for your loss. This was an amazing season, and I absolutely loved it. The main game was insane. Glad to have you play in this draft!

[@walaceandrade4046]

Thank you, Evil Emvee, for this incredible season. You brought only the heat each week and we were all here for it. See you again next season.

[@iconick3153]

You worked so hard to get here and played really well all season. It’s a shame, but it’s the nature of drafts. Congrats on your placement nonetheless and super hyped for Season 2 Evil Emvee!

[@simplylittv]

Tough battle wow, great szn with unfortunate ending. Great content either way tysm Emvee

[@phonepup06]

Well played emvee! It was a phenomenal season and can’t wait to see what you draft for the dlc league.

[@stevenmichaud6668]

Alas, evil Emvee falls. I had a lot of fun rooting for you though and can’t wait to see you the next league

[@rampage0092]

Evil Emvee’s rage takes over and he switches the bear out for the ape. The Annihilape lol

[@IchigoKurosaki-iq6ox]

been a blast having evil Emvee and god to see the bear face-off GG hope you come back next season

[@wormka86]

Ggs emvee it was a great season! The hot start you got off to I thought you were gonna take this season, looking forward to seeing you in the next draft and rooting for you thanks for all the content

[@TipOfTheSauce]

With the theme of redemption maybe next time you could draft another sun team. It would be interesting to see you give it a second chance with everything that’s been added and changed since.

[@AvaluggEnjoyer420]

Can we appreciate how Emvee never fails to play with our balls?

[@tonyaguirre3105]

We??

[@TheWelkynnsAlt]

bro..

[@donniecupples6721]

Awwww tough game bud. It was fun to watch the journey. On to the next tourney!

[@victorvinnyvalfierno]

Ahhh the glare didn't stop the rapid spin... I could hear it in your voice how much you wanted them rocks. GG

[@MrTwister22]

GG Emvee. Thank you for the draft content. Good stuff as always, with an evil aura to boot

[@TheClutchUDF]

What a great battle! Espeon would’ve been really good here and it’s probably the only game you didn’t bring it, still great content and looking forward to more vids!

[@mainlyjm]

Unfortunate Emvee, it was amazing to watch your draft! Uzi prep was insane

[@JosephHk743]

Shadow Uzi vs Evil Emvee was definitely the matchup of all time to BEAR witness to. Uzi definitely prepared well to quell your evil rage. Shame you didn’t get the runback with Joey, but you put up a phenomenal season regardless. Maybe your next story will be around redemption and taming both forms of Ursaluna.

[@pezyg]

I love Thwackey. It always reminded me of Marhstomp funnily enough

[@kevinmiller9542]

Was a great run brother was a blast watching all season !!

[@franzreimer596]

you gonna assume opponent won't bring any form of hazard control because you usually don't bring hazards, let alone the free rapid spin in those first few turns which makes complete sense? also you damage calc without considering they might run a few hp evs?

[@matlit1859]

Super fun season! Roulette is an apt metaphor. Can't wait til season 2 already

[@reactiongamingesports-9873]

So so so much fun to watch you this season! Thank you for all the videos!

[@greenplumberL]

Great season Emvee! Sorry to see it come to an end. I started a draft league with some friends and drafted a (shiny) Sneasler because of you. Nicknamed Gold 'n' Go. You gotta like that name. Good luck next season.

[@altogrey9712]

I cant believe choice specs weavile just did a number on Emvee's team, better luck next time.

[@badidou5221]

Thank you Emvee for the amazing content you have given us this season. I was looking forward your match every week. Rooting for you always, let’s get that championship next season 💪

[@1originalaccountname]

I'm hoping next season will have Evil Joey

[@toaster7426]

Nah we need an evil-er Emvee, bro has been cooking lately and I am eagerly wanting more

[@1originalaccountname]

@toaster7426 nah my guy. Emvee needs to learn that the good guy wins in the end because they're the main character. We need Main Character Emvee

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

This is what happens you run Stealth Rock xD GG

[@7138-u1k]

I swear I watch all your videos at 1.25x speed and it’s the hack that makes this content even better

[@PierceLavoy]

Damn, all good Emvee you did amazing this season. Next time buddy

[@Metaknighttheloneswordsman]

Cool thumbnail. It looks like Thunderous-I is cheering on Thwackey.

[@MusicMan-xv9du]

Ive been waiting all day for this, lets goo!!

[@hunchho12]

great season and a crazy draft. your team was absolutely loaded. actually shocked you lost. even tho he hard countered your team, losing this game is kinda a choke job considering how stacked your team was

[@sonic5993]

Uzi came out with the guns today.

[@maxmeek8923]

Scroll Great season Emvee! Had fun watching your matches brotha

[@flyingcaro]

Proud of you for all the games

[@ShycoWar]

Spoilers below Dang, that early Rapid Spin was a literal game changer. So much would've been different with rocks up, but that (unintentionally?) perfect Turn 3 prediction seemingly turned your entire game plan on its head; lowkey felt like _everything_ went according to plan for Uzi from that point on. Ah, well, we'll get 'em next time. Nothing more than a temporary setback on Evil Emvee's path to the glory he deserves 💪

[@EllipticalReasoning]

This game is a great example of why for generations suicide leads were popular just to secure rocks advantage. It would have been an easy win for Emvee if he'd had rocks up, or if his opponent hadn't.

[@TheCoolguymanly]

Also a great showing of how Stealth Rocks are still just as amazing today as they were back in the day, haven't fallen off in the slightest.

[@potatoexe5410]

Of course the Normal Ursaluna and his companions would defeat the Evil Bloodmoon version. The Hero wins once again

[@Nononchalance]

Ended up binging your matches from this season while sick. Bummer deal on this game, but the content overall has been fire.

[@LordEmvee]

ayy hope u feel better

[@chrismason3351]

I'm so so sad 😭😭 I def thought you were gonna pull the dub for this draft league. GGs MV.

[@Porpoise0fLight]

anime evil luna vs savior luna moment. love to see it.

[@Quiyonce]

Well played by the both of you! Evil Emvee may not win it all but you still had a fanfuckingtastic fun. Thanks for your performance this season and good luck to Future Emvee in the next draft!

[@ButterflyBlood]

It sucks so hard that you lost, the hard counter was insane. Next season I'm hoping to see tera captain Arboliva

[@Sonix07pr]

Unironically could’ve won if rocks stayed up. That or no triple grassy glide resist.

[@Midwest_ern]

Big Nuggets logo with a Sneasler would be cool! Would love to see Meganium and/or Dodrio in the next draft. They feel like mons that don't get a ton of love and I would be excited to see what sets you bring.

[@verdi2280]

massive upset, ggs to both what a fight

[@SpaghettiSpaghettiNeverForgeti]

Ursaluna returned to save Emvee from evil 🐻❤ Time for the redemption ark

[@KatyHudson-b5v]

the rapid spin wasnt for the rocks bro, it was to get the tusk faster than your mons and some scarfers

[@Quasi-Competent]

Also in case Espeon showed up to reflect his rocks

[@Volcrix]

That outro was fire!! 🔥

[@diegomolina8305]

Man, I'm very sad :^( But i had a lot of fun to see those 7 wins in a row. Just to threw that tomato to Joey

[@Sponsie1000]

Also if you want to do something with BigNugget in your teamname, maybe the Coalossal Nuggets could be cool!, obviously Nuggets of colossal size are bound to be particularly big, and it's a fire type pokemon which seems appropriate for you :]

[@meetRS268]

i think its only right if next season evil emvee learns from his past mistakes and trys to turn a new LEAF and rise from the ASHES. with a powerful sun team and talonflame since ho-ho is the banned pheonix

[@Bunnelbee3]

Evil emvee taken down kinda poetic

[@NebulaAlterna]

This is easily my favourite match of the season, wow

[@harveynewman4423]

Would love to see you draft hippowdon! The mon is a beast in draft, and can be EV'd to take and give big hits.

[@arthursdl]

Now I know I've got a heart because it is breaking. Long live Evil Emvee!

[@iisnopel3769]

And thus Evil Emvee never got to have his revenge. :(

[@kuuro_music]

GG well played Emvee! (Spoilers below) It's heartbreaking to see evil Emvee's arc end here, but this was an amazing season! You put on an excellent performance in all your matches and brought us some really heat 🔥 content that we loved to watch. And in this match you did your best to adapt and try to get the win despite having a rather unfavourable match up and Uzi's prep. Good luck on the next season, and looking forward to more amazing content after the DLC. Stay fantastic! ❤

[@nanashivii9237]

Shame to see you go out like this, GGs to Uzi, his prep was immaculate. You only have yourself to blame for not bringing out the Fling Big Nugget to put these trainers back in line, they got too cocky.

[@dylansullivan565]

Wow the outro lol 😂😂😂 chill sasuke

[@dashingkevs3295]

Beso Emvee, great effort! rocks wouldve done wonders. Uzi also in rare form defeating Evil Emvee!

[@BTime223]

27:00 his team is good into yours cause his prep was better lol

[@EllipticalReasoning]

21:44 has anyone been able to figure out what was going on with this roll? my calc says that minimum damage for a 0 attack manaphy flip turn into 0 defense ceruledge should do minimum 156 damage, but the actual damage was 144.

[@TheCoolguymanly]

He wasn't 0 defense my dude. He had HP and/or Defense investment. Power Herb Set with Bitter Blade after all.

[@3EyeWand3r3r]

We live by the big nugget, we die by the abandonment of the big nugget. Big nugget will return...

[@TigerVGC]

This is an incredible game

[@azurememory]

That team matchup was rough….. felt impossible after the first few turns.

[@CdogThePro]

You gotta draft Flygon next draft. That mon would be so fun!

[@marshall4048]

Happy Birthday Emvee!

[@LordEmvee]

ty :)

[@AvaluggEnjoyer420]

Whens the assault vest wo-chien video dropping?

[@zaaya7719]

Joey fought valiantly 🥺❤️‍🩹

[@zekegonzaldi6230]

Spoilers: To be frank, I really thought this was the season that Emvee would finally prevail. Been a big fan since 2016. Unfortunately, Uzi just had incredible prep that Evil Emvee could not overcome. That impending championship win will be all that much sweeter tho! Evil Emvee must not give up Thanks for the awesome content throughout the entire season!

[@jeffreybridges3210]

Emvee if your team name isnt the Chinese Big Nuggets a massive opportunity has been missed

[@thpolar3887]

The power of Chinese sets was definitely displayed here.

[@vetochen2931]

I think enlightened or ascended emvee would be cool following evil emvee

[@Sponsie1000]

Also l guess you misplayed around the ceruledge by not calcing during the match l think. If you had calced you mightve noticed that your BulkUp no-item Acrobatics didnt do as much damage as it should, therefore theorizing it might be semi-bulking, therefore clicking surf instead of FlipTurn. Obviously it living on 2 hp is well within rounding error, but it wouldve been good to have an idea of whether it was a roll or not instead of just immediately clicking FlipTurn without any further considerations

[@romeojojojo731]

If ursaluna was just a simple max special attack set I think you would’ve had more of a shot. I feel you needed a mon that could just do straight damage aside from thwacky

[@Nutleaf420]

Man that really sucks. Really wanted to see the joey emvee final

[@Siscon92]

Such a shame that the game was decided in the first 10 turns. It really felt like he was in your head. Let’s see what next season brings

[@ArecnaD2]

Well played despite the end result, Uzi made the right call with having spin Also, does this mean you're dying your hair for the next draft?????

[@d6roll]

Evil emvee gg very fun season

[@donra2142]

Was thisnyiurblast game in the draft? Didnt you have the finals spot secured?

[@alwayssearching2012]

RIP Evil Emvee 2023-2023 never forget GG dude, unfortunately you just got counter teamed hard. You still had an amazing season though

[@Hydroelectirc]

Wait this means emvee didnt make it too finals i thought he was locked in?

[@LordEmvee]

locked in to playoffs but playoffs becomes single elimination up to finals :(

[@Hydroelectirc]

@@LordEmvee unfortunate :/
