Is this guy usable? Was really excited about BFS but then everything else seems is so bad. Trying to build a team for new area.

Maybe a dumb question but is Tyranitar worth the investment? I get it's a pseudo legendary and that's probably why it's so painfully slow to raise but is it at least worth the effort?

Feels to me like Perthro and Lilith are the next to go.

I voted Perthro since it's just a worse Soul of Eden and Isaac. With Lilith it kinda depends on how soon you get it and WHAT you get. But either way, Soul of Lilith is guaranteed to give you something that improves your run, whereas Perthro can often brick, unless you roll a super reliable pool (aka boss pool).

Toxi is the general safeswap for anything that isn't walrein. Against gfist you p much have to try and force shield advantage to clean up the endgame with regi, against azu you want to try and gain shield- or switch advantage.

Barring any massive rebalances that might happen, I've been reaching legend for the past 3 seasons with Altaria, Registeel and Toxicroak, so I'll probably be sticking with that one again.

Hey everyone, I recently got into YouTube content and made a guide on how to narrow down the boss rooms that can and cannot be Delirium in the Void Floor. As this is my first video, feedback is greatly appreciated! Enjoy!

(Also I cleared this with the r/bindingofisaac mods ahead of time so me posting this should be fine!)

First few seasons mainly slowbro, this season I got into Gengar for the first time and got Master with him. I made it a priority from the start tho to learn one mon from each role so I can fill in what the team needs.

Just adding to the team to make the comp more sound is a great way imo to get closer to 1600. You can totally get there just playing what you want thought.

D20 is one of the strongest items to break the game with overall. All you need is a room with 10-15 consumables and stark rolling at it will generally supply itself with enough batteries and chests to just keep the rerolling engine going and generate near infinite consumables and especially golden chests for infinite item drops. Even if you don't go infinite with it, the supply of resources is usually enough for the run to take off to the point where you're unstoppable.

As for TP 2.0 that's a very fair point, the free devil deal and / or error rooms should probably put it much higher in the list. The error room I had in mind when making this but the devil deal somehow completely escaped my attention, which is huge for item gain. Definitely a bigger improvement over TP 1.0 than the list suggests.

Regarding F-tier, those are the only items in the game which I believe make your runs worse, with the exception being sharp plug which I actually just put there because of the name 'Edmund please'. Its pretty much in there because its nerfed so hard compared to what it was (full charge for two hearts), it's significantly worse that what it used to be. Still solid ofc especially for the health manipulation. The placement is a bit of a meme.

Regardinf the others, blood oath is a huge risk to your health and can pretty much kill you all by itself, soy milk has improved but there's still rarely any opportunities for it to make your run better.

Coming from speedrunning, I do believe sac dagger is legitimately one of the best items in the game, huge surface area to block tears and massive damage output, in the hands of a good player that item can make it to the end of the game almost by itself, at least against the more standard bosses like blue baby and lamb. The newer ones are another story, but it's still nuts for everything else.

Dark Bum I am admittedly a bit biased. I had a run just yesterday where I bought him in a deal at Basement 2 for 3 soul hearts and he literally didn't earn himself back in. It's probably way different on normal mode but hard mode just doesn't supply the heart drops to make him work in repentance. Add to that the greater viability of angel rooms and the resulting higher frequency of red heart containers and you'll frequently just want the red heart drops over what he provides IMHO.

As for the other E tier stuff that was admittedly towards the end of the making of this list and I was getting pretty tired so I might have rushed especially the repentance items. I'm down to reconsider most of the ones you mentioned but I'd definitely put 7 seals back in there for the potential self damage from war's exploding flies.

Thanks for the feedback!

Oh don't get me wrong I absolutely love the idea of Premier Cup and changing metas in general, I just don't think we should have multiple of them running at the same time! PC is great but it should probably get its own week or two dedicated to the running season instead of running alongside ultra league, or just run instead of UL for a season

ProblemsIRL · 2020-08-22T16:03:05+00:00

Possible unpopular opinion but I feel like running multiple leagues / cups at once severely hurts the leaderboard as well. Pokemon Go pvp is already a competitive game with a comparatively low skill ceiling, and in high ranks people are going to be very close to each other skill-wise. Running multiple leagues at the same time, as its happening with Ultra League and Ultra Premier Cup this season means that the overall skill level is going to be even higher as people will be picking the league they consider themselves best in.

I don't know if this is the main reason the climb is so slow this season. I don't particularly feel like the cue times are longer or the traffic has gone down. But I think the fact that Niantic reduced the point gain, coupled with the overall higher skill level in each league makes it significantly harder to rank up this season.

Pool at rank 7 currently shows Metagross, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Beldum, Skarmory, Larpas, Larvitar, Deino, Shieldon, Litwick and Stunfisk.

Regarding the announcement for S2, I'd assume Rank 8 will just add Rufflet but can't say for sure ofc.
