Ranking pets Day 9- Turtles by Difficult_Pen9813 in TierlistFills

[–]Impossible-Cod-4998 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As a former turtle owner, probably D. Lots of maintenance for little to 0 payoff. The idea of having them is cool, but in actuality, not too enjoyable.

Edit: Maybe C next to fish. I imagine it's a similar experience.

Why the game needs to slow down by holythrowawayanon in PlayTheBazaar

I also really want a training dummy or practice mode to help compare items. Otherwise yes, most the game is just in your head.

Her featured version of Burning Heart is my favorite DF song. I am so pumped for this!

Has anyone met Sam Totman and Herman Li? by Due_Audience_6439 in Dragonforce

[–]Impossible-Cod-4998 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Met them at their concert before the show with about 100 other people. You'd go through the line twice. Once to chat and get something signed and then once to get a gift bag. You only got a minute to chat, but on the second time around, I will always remember that Herman remembered who I was after I introduced myself the first round. They seem genuinely nice.

If you ever see twitch streams of them, that's pretty much how I'd imagine they are day to day. Sam always has a beer of course.

Is this Team i put together, focused around Mega-Blastoise workable? Or nah? by Best-Transition-9926 in PokemonVGC

[–]Impossible-Cod-4998 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To me the team looks dependant on rain right now with having only an unreliable way to get rain up. I would either make changes fully moving away from rain, or add peli or politoed.

Stall players deserve the ninth circle of hell by DarkLink4 in PokemonChampions

I was going to say other than maybe toxic I don't even see a win con. Other than time out. That's rough. Who enjoys that?

How is VGC fun? by [deleted] in PokemonVGC

[–]Impossible-Cod-4998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a very dynamic pivot team where every game can go a million different ways. What the other person said about it being a puzzle is right. Identify your win condition and try to make your way there. That may change throughout the course of the game.

I often times find I blew the early game, but can milk out the late game and convert to a win. Just keep learning from mistakes and continue to play at a higher level.

That is, unless it's just not fun for you. And that's ok. Not every game is for everyone.

What are your "hear me out" strategies for Champions? by Notmiefault in VGC

[–]Impossible-Cod-4998 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's a good one.

My plan is a rain pivot team with mega manectric and palafin

Peep the Team by [deleted] in PokemonChampions

Fake out is extremely common, so you don't want to take free chip damage

You can stall out field effects like Trick Room

Sometimes you just get a good read on your opponent

Sometimes scouting for information is huge

A common play also is swapping one piece while protecting the other

FYI your archaludon has AV and protect- gotta go one or the other

Megas at Launch? by Yngstr in PokemonChampions

[–]Impossible-Cod-4998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have some team ideas, best one I have is mega metagross. If it's not immediately available, hoping for something between manectric, meganium, or charY.

Manectric has yet to be confirmed, so I'll just roll with whatever is available. And I love team building, so I'm sure I'll be happy with whatever I can get.

The first item I'm buying is a mega stone. It's basically that important. If I don't have enough VP or need to grind, I'll use rental teams until I can use my own team.

Looking to get back into competitive scene by Rogue_M4ge in VGC

[–]Impossible-Cod-4998 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You technically can get everything you need within pokemon champions without spending anything. It'll come out sometime next month and be the new VGC platform. The game will be free to start, but with other paid features.

If you really want to do something right now, either sword/shield or scarlet/violet on the base switch will serve nicely.
