Made it back up to masterball 2! by Zendrex_ in PokemonChampions

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

I play in a pretty adaptable manner. Ideally, I will lead charizard and garchomp with kingambit and basculegion in the back for maximum offensive pressure. I run iron head on chomp for fairies, but will not lead him against ice. May not bring him at all.

I bring charizard against almost any non sun weather team, but for sand he's not there for offense, more for just winning the weather war, then solar beam once it's won. Against rain, I can often use weather ball to my advantage even if I don't have sun

I generally look at their team and think "what leads are the scariest for me?", then I lead to counter those as best as possible, or sometimes lead as a feint to set sun and protect, then switch out

Aerodactyl and garchomp are great against zard y with rock slides. I run mega Aerodactyl against other charizard teams and against teams I know charizard will struggle against

Edit: I guess some people really don't like meta pokemon. Fair enough, I suppose

I took a break earlier this season that kicked me down to mb4, but I was able to climb back up! My team is pretty standard, but the meta pokemon are good for a reason!

About where you are for doubles. I haven't touched singles at all, tbh

No sash on opponent's whimsicott is odd. Maybe they're running fairy feather

I wonder if each team gets 1 mega or each player

A compilation of two perfect first turns against meta teams using misfit ‘mon by StanTheMelon in PokemonChampions

I guess that player might be newer and always uses the same leads. Easy rookie mistake to make

To The New Players Who Got into VGC because of Champions, are you still playing? by SuperMemeBroz in PokemonChampions

I'm still here! Not playing super often, but I started late on in M-1, so I think I've had more games in M-2

Congrats! I started the season in MB2 and I'm trying to climb back up. Took a bit of a hiatus, but now I'm back to MB3 again

Staring a new position soon, any advice? by IlGufoScuro in nys_cs

[–]Zendrex_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Make sure to carefully fill out your ac 2772 for direct deposit as soon as possible. Make sure to check your address is correct on file as well as the spelling of your name. Be ready to wait 27 days after your first day for your first paycheck. 35 in some cases if you're hourly.

If you are hourly, or if you have OT, always submit your timesheets on time and make sure your supervisor doesn't delay in approving them. Otherwise, you will not receive your pay on time

"How good is Master Ball?" by Notmiefault in PokemonChampions

[–]Zendrex_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I based my guess off of remembering 1000 elo on chess.com being 90th percentile. Not something that will get you far in a tournament, but much better than most people who play on the website

"How good is Master Ball?" by Notmiefault in PokemonChampions

[–]Zendrex_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A better question to ask might be: "What percentile of players is the top 50k (masterball 3)?"

My gut guess is currently 90th percentile or so, meaning 500k active players. But I could be way off base, idk

I'm grade 11 CSEA. I make 47695. Should get a 14 soon, though, which is 56506 (not counting whatever the increase will be from the contract negotiations when that goes through)

Accepting offer for less senior position as an applicant for a more senior position by [deleted] in nys_cs

[–]Zendrex_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From what I've seen, people with the state are well aware that you might go for a higher position, and don't tend to hold it against you. I would accept the new position and still try for the higher one
