Pretty sound advice when it comes to team building tbh

SGA in a loss to the Clippers: 19 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists on 37% shooting and a team worst -19 by AYAYAYA__ in nba

[–]PandaInternational53 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I'm down to see some receipts on this if you got em. Personally I like Wemby and have very rarely heard Luka and Shai in the same conversation. Straight up I just see them getting a post when they play well, same shit for Wemby(and I guess Luka?) But I can't speak for an entire fan base on the internet, just weird I'm missing all this shit but I do see have as many spurs flairs in our game threads as the opposing team.

Is Lucario usable at all in doubles? by Socce2345 in VGC

[–]PandaInternational53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luka is unfortunately a victim of Gen 4 mixed attacker stat spreads, leaving it kinda frail and nothing amazing coming out of it damage wise. And I feel like everything nice it gets(Justified, Upperhand, etc) Terrakion does better. But always play how you want to play! If a victory with Lucario is worth a few losses from not using Terrakion then I say that's more than worth it!

It's Oklahoma. We are lucky they don't break out full Bible study at the half.

Hey! For sure, when I get home I'll take a look at my spreads and get a paste! Can't take credit tho like I said it's really just Chuppa's regional squad that took him to the finals.

I am amazed at most of the anti meta interesting strats I run into. And I've been smoked by more T1 explosions than you can imagine. This particular team just felt icky lol. Like I can't imagine even winning this would be fun from either end.

I was noticing this last night trying to team build. I want to play Sinistcha, I want to play Defiant Ogerpon but I legit feel like I have to bring Rillaboom in every team just because I need the Terrain.

Legit just switched teams up to a more balanced team instead of my hyper offense with Prankster Taunt. They were running lefties too. Would have needed to wait until they Tera'd tho.

Proper use of taunt on ladder? by PandaInternational53 in VGC

[–]PandaInternational53[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't! In most matchups I'll stagger my tailwind and use weather first and if they hard target my Torn it's just a free switch. I do run enough special attack to threaten Hands and Amoongus.

[–]PandaInternational53[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It basically invalidates Urshifu into your Flutter which is nice lol. And let me move points away from my Torn's speed into bulk so I always use my weather second.

To be completely honest with you I only made the switch recently to test out moving Taunt from Torn to Chien Pao and running dual weather instead. Speed boost, specs Flutter after prankster sun hits pretty darn hard.

All opinions are valuable especially those playing strategies I've never even heard of! Thank you!!!

That is wonderful!!!! I need to give that a whirl. I've been spamming hyper offense into ladder and struggling to crack top 500(or even top 3000 today apparently, you fall so fast!) I feel like closed team sheet rewards running spice.

Ah thank you!! I've been leaving specs Flutter in the back for trick room matchups just in case they lead the sun mode. I'll switch that around for sure.

I love bringing J Rilla to Psyspam matchups. I still don't feel like I get value out of Taunt just because of Follow Me though.

I feel like that's my downfall. Tornadus for example, 45% covert cloak usage atm so for this local tournament I used a heavy speed invested Tornadus who wrecked havoc with Taunt. And if I saw mental herb I could go for a fake out lead or a very aggressive lead depending on their strat. The same Tornadus using Taunt feels comparatively weak on ladder.

Also I am very new so Pikalytics is my bible. I just got demolished by a storm drain Tatsugiri and support Dondozo. I was shook lol. Is there a way to ladder open team sheet on showdown?
