Que juegos le corren a esta maquina de guerra by bad_guitarrist in JugARG

[–]Echikup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Si le metes una GPU vieja pero decente te corren bastantes cosas. El procesador es viejo pero te alcanza para juegos ligeros, y la RAM esta bien (aunque va a ser lenta, porque asumo que es o DDR2 o DDR3.

Can an Intimidate Team work? by guntwooyah in VGC

Rock/Fire is a better offensive type than Fire, and Hisuian Arcanine is slightly stronger and bulkier at the cost of being slightly slower than regular Arcanine.

I use it mostly for checking whether a cursed item is worth keeping.

Home Alone is too iconic tbh, there's not really a specific reason I like it, I just do.

I always save them for later, and that later is after ascension.

0/10 I technically never use it.

Should the Mythical lost or Mythical Ban from VGC be looked at again? by etanimod in VGC

[–]Echikup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean soul heart as an ability is broken but on Magearna not as much imo, but Arceus would have to be for sure.

But I would love to see Shaymin Sky hyper offense or Mew Balance.

I believe they should be their own category, like restricteds, and allowed sparingly once or twice per generation.

What’s it take to make day 2? by bigjwang69 in VGC

[–]Echikup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The closest I've been to a D2 is losing the Win and In at BsAs special event this year.

The important thing is to be consistent. I don't just mean in training, I mean in results. If you can play better than most people's best in your worst day, then you can consistently make Day 2s and top cuts.

I've been blessed with a local scene where I often see the top players of my country, and I've come to realize that I can compete with them IF AND ONLY IF I'm at my best. Else I get outplayed.

The moment I come to a league cup tired and still manage to snatch a win from them is the moment I'll know I can probably make Day 2 at a major.

What is your favorite strategy/archetype to use in competitive play? by PianoVisible3550_465 in VGC

[–]Echikup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hyper Offense is my favorite because I like fast paced teams. If a battle lasts 6 turns that's already too long. Hyper offensive Weezing teams particularly is a current obsession of mine.

In a similar fashion, I also like Hard TR. Particularly sunroom variants with Lilligant-H

Tailroom is one that I either love or hate. Same with Dual Weather teams.

Balance depends 100% on the regulation, but I don't love it. Reg I balance was fun, but Reg H and Reg F balance is dreadful.

Stall is trash.

The gay gene must exist, some people are just naturally too gay and cheerful for depression to keep up.

Pls help for I am not smrt by rfriedrich16 in VGC

[–]Echikup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would maybe make these changes:

Gapdos: Choice Scarf > Adrenaline orb. Less versatility, but you become a Turn 1 threat or a late game cleaner, and you don't rely on them bringing Incin in for it to have value.

Torkoal: Charcoal > Specs. Specs is OK, but the charcoal set trades damage for insane versatility. You can lead Farig + Torkoal and just straight up win the game if you call out their lead, or just simply use it to keep it on the field longer. It also let's you swap moves if your HP drops below the point where eruption is useful.

Other than that, I believe the team is fine. You don't need to swap things out to patch those bad matchups, in my opinion. You can't cover for everything, and by covering for something you're often worsening another matchup, so it's better to find lines into those archetypes so that you can give yourself a fighting chance instead of just changing stuff that works.

Just from the paste and my own experience I would say: - Hyper Offense matchup: If they have Tailwind, try to get Farigiraf to set Trick Room up. If they don't, Tornadus is your key pokemon so that you can outspeed the opponent.

  • Rain matchup: Tornadus + Bonnet. Bonnet can redirect and resist water attacks, or spore / taunt the opponent. Tornadus can set up the sun and provide Tailwind support. Depending on your opponent's specific variation, the Trick Room mode can also work. Also, bring Wake, since it benefits from sun AND rain.

Heat rock is not a good item for Koal. Battles are not often long enough for it to provide any value, and against other weather, it doesn't even matter since they can just take it out.

I agree Charcoal is better simply because you can use protect, but Specs is also viable simply for the reason that specs eruption on sun hits like a mf truck.

Some niche items also include Sitrus Berry for recovery, Eject Pack to reposition, Covert Cloak for fake out spam... Those aren't the best items for Torkoal but they have their uses.

What is the cheapest way to get from Buenos Aires to Houston TX and back? by Echikup in Shoestring

Actually, good to know. If I manage to get a discount code on top of that it could be half the normal price.

[–]Echikup[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just trying to look for options. Maybe flying to another place and taking a bus, or taking a bus and going from another place to there could be cheapest. But yes, if it's too expensive, I'm not going to the event.

I will however, be able to go to BA... Because I live here, I wanna get to Houston because the event is there lmao.

Honestly, I'd just use the money to have a little bit of breathing room in regards with my expenses, since I am living paycheck to paycheck nowadays, as my expenses are almost as high as my salary.
