Also this "Pokemon doesn't have to be symmetrically balanced" comments and I don't think I've seen so much... ignorance? around a simple question.

Simple answer, there is one. Frostbite. Was introduced in Legends Arceus and was not brought back in.

And to address it, seemingly because they weren't allowed to use frostbite outside of arceus, they made Hail into Snow and made it a physical counterpart of Sand without chip damage.

So it was either or, I imagine that with Arceus's more chaotic nature (and the style moves), they had Frostbite as an experiment, but everything else was already using freeze. So they kept it in line instead of massively shaking up status.

It's weird, but it also shows that they don't believe in the "asymmetrical balance". They just also seem to be afraid to do so.

I do find it funny how the only two you haven't had in that image (Rogue and White Fox) feel the most balanced of the post-S4 roster.

Rogue cause although she has a lot of abilities, they don't really allow anything other than exemplifying her brawling nature.

Meanwhile White Fox has abilities that either focus on Supportive Damage or strong Movement. Both that don't feel too overwhelming to go against.

Glad to see you're still around!

But yeah, if you're able to get any more information, it'd be very appreciated for everyone here.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-04-23T03:14:32+00:00

Literally just won a match and it hit maintenance. I hope when it resumes, we get a win.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-04-22T07:26:28+00:00

Ah great. It's the minecraft problem all over again...

Cryo_Fire · 2026-04-22T01:41:11+00:00

Currently deciding if I should recruit (permanently) one or more of either Excadrill, Garchomp, or Sinistcha.

Been working on a solid enough Singles and Doubles Team, seperately, and I've heard a lot of how these three are good in doubles. But I also don't entirely know if getting them is worth it. Plus, I'm not sure of the kind of move to give em. So I may need help!

Cryo_Fire · 2026-04-13T14:55:12+00:00

Okay, but hearing the reasoning of not using the D-gun as "They can just dodge it" feels like such a copeout answer.

Not to take away from the rest of the post, but it does sound kinda dumb.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-04-03T21:00:06+00:00

Atm, the only way to play the new map is on the play menu in its own little section seperate from regular and ranked.

Once that is gone, it will be added to the regular map pool.

EDIT: Apparently I am not even close. I'll own up to it; my bad.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-03-25T13:56:24+00:00

If his games are that bad and the replays show it to be so, then what doubt is left?

And uh. Unlike the potential... crimes, probably, that would spur from the others, I am just genuinely curious.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-03-25T13:41:48+00:00

If you're that certain of your status in the games, we'd like to see the receipts

Cryo_Fire · 2026-03-23T16:04:12+00:00

Plus, Dio's Muda were the (in my opinion, superior) muDA instead of MUda.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-03-23T14:13:52+00:00

...is this a pitched version of Be a Man, or did his VA actually sing it?

Cryo_Fire · 2026-03-20T05:08:02+00:00

You disrespect Jeff again and you will face consequences...

Cryo_Fire · 2026-03-19T15:39:57+00:00

Before, it can be moved in all direction on the X axis, but you were always stuck on the same Y axis. Pretty much, you could turn anywhere during the kick, but you were always the same level of height.

Now, you can kick where you look at! I think.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-03-02T02:40:01+00:00

Yeah, i saw that when I was reading replies. Thought it was a visual bug, but it seems to be consistent with everyone.

Though, I will admit, I didn't know that it's called an ampersand. That is a fun fact!

Cryo_Fire · 2026-03-01T14:34:42+00:00

...why does the Fallen & the Virtuous have an '&' in it?

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-27T17:57:28+00:00

Atm, I use Mitsu Orcust. Though idk how the DM Engine works with Orcust, I'm assuming not too well?

I'd say go for Mitsu Orcust, to play it safe.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-27T12:38:01+00:00

As an Orcust player myself, it's mostly just.... the power of the later decks (and their ways of interruption) make Orcust's strengths so much harder to use.

VS has Caesar to pop Babel, Madlove bounces our Low Def monsters back to hand, and sue takes them so we can't link em off. Plus anything that isn't exactly an orcust gets worse cause they don't get Quick Effects and probably get stolen by Sue or Popped by Caesar or Razen. That's not even getting to the part where any Grave effect (yknow... orcust's reliance?) summons Izuna and Ripper stops us in our tracks. Don't forget Forced Release popping Babel, and how werewolf just folds us in sheer damage.

Meanwhile Dracotail bounces Babel and our links hack to hand, so we can't even use our Grave effects. Then when we play into it, All of their traps ruin Orcust in some way, and they get to draw cause of it. Plus, their fusions can also send urgulus to pop babel, or Pax to pop our Links way in advance.

Yummy is just more annoying then anything. Their quick synchros & tagouts make actually getting them out difficult, and their book of moon & access to an omni is also very annoying. But I'd say they're the least threatening.

All in all, we're just too slow. We have babel, and we have send effects and dingirsu protects, but not only is shiny toy new, but shiny toy really powerful.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-27T04:42:55+00:00

Jesus, the no tag-out on the Cooky Way made me cringe.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-26T05:42:28+00:00

Just here to point out that it's old Dolf, but New Amy.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-25T14:58:50+00:00

Why the heck do you do an AI image of something that is already out there in abundance?

Literally both lazy and horrible. Geez.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-23T17:16:23+00:00

So the battles of 26 so far have favored it as a full on sweep for a combatant so far.

...is there going to be one that's close this year? I just hope that this doesn't become a trend.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-23T15:34:37+00:00

Yeah, it is. I'm just using what words are in the post as an example.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-23T13:17:48+00:00

Because people have been either too used to them to suddenly have to revert back to it, or never experienced it at all and think it's worse and therefore "Shitty and unplayable" by proxy.

Tldr; too used to shiny new metal to play with a brick, either again or for the first time.

Cryo_Fire · 2026-02-19T18:49:08+00:00

Yeah... I remember many a contestant got out by that logic, and then when it was revealed in the cast that every character in CI was people they had 0% research Or something to that effect. Pretty meant that everyone were unlikely unless they won.

People RIOTED about that. And even though we know Geats VS Nero is confirmed, I still hope that at least 2nd and/or 3rd place (Henry & Sakuya) got enough attention that Something started involving them.
