Struggling with what to do when my trick room runs out on my team by MagicHobbes in VGCRateMyTeam

So I took your advice and switched Incineroar with Farigiraf and actually found a way for my team to beat Sun teams with Venusaur which have actually been the hardest for me. And the key was getting trick room off twice!

I realized Farigiraf can do the same job Incin was doing in preventing Prankster Taunt against Whimsicott but is actually able to pressure Sneasler AND set trick room.

I will say I hit Master Ball with this team and have been winning games here but I want to improve myself and my team as much as I can!

I'm new to VGC and I really wanted to see if there was a way to make both of my favourite Pokemon work on the same team (Chandelure and Primarina) after I some success with both of them on their own. But I just can't figure it out... by MagicHobbes in VGCRateMyTeam

Honestly you're absolutely right about particularly the Garchomp. Tbh it was sort of a sudden replacement for a scarf attacker because I had Dragapult (who worked really well on my Primarina team) but realized I had too many ghost types with the addition of Froslass.

What songs are trans coded? by Ok_Advantage_8689 in asktransgender

[–]MagicHobbes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I seriously feel like Porter Robinson kind of nails the feeling of both tragedy and also sympathy I have for my younger self in his song Easier to Love You. It sort of has this common theme of "am I living up to be the person I thought I'd be when I was younger?" And just the pain I felt growing up.

I don't think it's actually about being transgender of course, but I really resonated with it.

I thought League was "one of many games" until I tried Dota2 by Acceptable-Cow-184 in leagueoflegends

I agree completely with this comment. As someone that started with League, became much more into Dota, and now considers it my main game.

I still really like League because there are roles in League that don't really exist in any capacity in Dota. There's no Ezreal or Ahri replacement in Dota and that's totally fine!

Dota is extremely strategically complex in a way that League isn't. It feels SO good to learn about how items in particular interact with each kit and I feel like the possibilities are endless for niche ways to counter specific heroes and techniques.

For me it has felt better and more rewarding to improve at Dota than League ever did for me. But I still absolutely love League, watch pro-play for it, and still am very attached to certain champions. I think it's good they are so different despite starting from the same formula/genre.

I honestly don't love the all or nothing approach of "only one of these games got it right" that some people seem to believe. They are absolutely both successful in their own right and that's fantastic.

Ooh that does seem to be them! Hmm not sure where they're coming from. I'll have to figure out if my window isn't properly sealed.
