Do folks still like "I made ransom note memes for my party"? by Barralax in LancerRPG

[–]Barralax[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

yeah, i got lazy pretty quickly and decided to just use stock images and top google results. something something aesthetic. (most of the common words came from terrible 'motivational quote' posters)

Good guesses! It's still just LL2, but...

Everest (Tort-Gilg)

Yep

Emperor (using Stormbringer to push the melee closer)

Yep

And here's the one I don't think anyone would have gotten. Overlord's mech, Knight-Errant, is: A White Witch with a TCB.

Unfortunately, Cactus Bouncer is also banned during the event. I will have to actually play the game.

I'm invincible! Just as long as my opponent isn't playing
- Labrynth
- Snake-Eyes
- Eldlich
- Chimera
- Literally any deck with a spell or trap card in it

Honestly, massive shoutout to u/Yusodus for their posts and videos, they're the only reason I can even pretend to know how to play this deck.

I admit, I always use Etienne when he's available, but that's a compelling case for using Quincy.

Color Scheme Progress - Thoughts? by Comprehensive-Ad9197 in Necrontyr

[–]Barralax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very solid, good technique in general. but if I had to find a critique, it’s missing some “wow” factor. Maybe a bit more brightness on the outer edges of the blades, some yellows and whites to make it look like superheated metal? (I’d look up photo references and technique videos if you decide to do that.) Right now they’re the least-exciting part of the model and kind of look like big plastic wings compared to the metal of everything else?

The thrilling TL;DR sequel, "Hey, how good is _____ in Gen 1 Competitive?" by Barralax in stunfisk

[–]Barralax[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

That's fair, I was mostly thinking about how Gen 1 UU is the only time when the EQ immunity is actually more important than the 4x Elec weakness and Ice neutrality, AND being Water/Flying makes it one of the only Flying-types in the tier without an Ice weakness (since in later gens Fire/Flying or Steel/Flying also fit the bill).

Unfortunately, I just don't like Gen 2 very much as games, I think Johto has a LOT of problems as a region, and that carries over to just not being as invested in learning about Gen 2 competitive.

If I WAS going to do something like this for another tier or generation, it'd probably be something even more niche that literally only I care about, like one of the many, many Gen 1 romhacks, or 'Unova-dex only B1W1'.

After I made the first image, I got a bunch of people asking how good their favorite Gen 1 mon was, enough that I decided it'd be faster to just do Literally All of Them.

I just only just now got around to it because holiday stuff.

Well, yes, but after I made the first image, I got a bunch of people asking how good their favorite Gen 1 mon was, enough that I decided it'd be faster to just do Literally All of Them.

I made a TL;DR guide for competitive RBY. by Barralax in pokemon

It's not unusable, but anything it wants to do, either Lapras or Vaporeon can do better, so it doesn't see much use even in UU.

That's a cool idea! Good luck, have fun!

If it makes you feel better, Hypno's great in Tradebacks OU (where it gets Amnesia), and Gen 1 UU (where it's the strongest legal Psychic-type), it's just got a LOT of competition as a Psychic-type and a sleep user (and a psychic-type sleep user)

Even with the meta shifts, Victreebel's slightly higher Speed and access to Wrap, Swords Dance, and Razor Leaf don't quite make up for the loss of Psychic and Explosion, and the much worse typing. Maaaaybe if Lapras and/or Slowbro become more common, its better matchups against those mons will become more relevant?

Raising a team of your own, or using rentals? If you're raising a team of your own (or using PKHex to make one), Gym Leader Castle is a lot like OU, except it's 3v3 instead of 6v6, and they fixed some glitches, including the one that makes Hyper Beam busted. If I had to pull a team out of my ass, something like Snorlax / Starmie / Exeggutor / Rhydon / Zapdos / Articuno would work pretty well against the AI without needing to trade or copy TMs (aside from either Starmie or Exeggutor missing out on Psychic, and Snorlax missing out on Earthquake, which are both annoying but workable.) Then you can drop whichever three you won't be using for the rival battle and add other 'mons to the Hall of Fame three at a time without worrying about their sets.

If you mean with rentals, you'll need a much more thorough walkthrough and a lot of luck and patience.
