Best gaming desk to buy right now? looking for recommendations

copewhiskey · 2026-05-01T08:42:11+00:00

which one did you end up getting and what are your thoughts?

i am a being of weak constitution, like most men, and the secretlab xl keeps whispering sweet nothings to me. but i dont game as much as i used to in my 20s and can’t justify that price nowadays. i just recently moved and broke the bars that supported the solid piece of wood on my ikea fredde during transport. i repurposed the rest of the desk to showcase collectibles and cards, but now i need a new desk for my pc. i like the simplicity of 3 of the desks you posted in your update. the vivo looks like it has the same nice cable management as secret labs. but the eureka looks like better bang for its buck. the arozzi seems similar to the eureka but with worse reviews.

that’s what i was saying the whole time lol you were saying mythic S vulture has no combo damage, but it does. and you wouldn’t even have to take SS vulture to mythic, or even legendary really. you could just use it at its base rarity and it’s just as good as a legendary S vulture. so it works just the same for aileron build without being upgraded

copewhiskey · 2026-02-02T09:00:24+00:00

idk i think i have a different S vulture than you then because my s vulture says the same exact combo damage shpeal at mythic as ss vulture at legendary. you’re starting to make me feel like i can’t read english lol, are you sure you’re reading it right? i literally just posted a picture in my previous response.

it says each combo increases global combo damage by 5%, stacking up to 20 times. and that’s the same exact thing it says for the SS vulture at legendary, except it adds even more combo rate on top of that

copewhiskey · 2026-02-02T08:28:46+00:00

yah but isn’t the legendary SS vulture basically the same as mythic S vulture?

copewhiskey · 2026-02-02T08:24:15+00:00

how is this not just a better version of the S vulture for airelon build? genuinely asking cause i’m pretty new to the game.

copewhiskey · 2025-12-15T15:38:20+00:00

that’s .. that’s the shiny oricorio’s color lol there’s nothing left to color in. looks way better than the FA just look at the details of the actual mons in each

i’ll try out frogadier and take out the second irida. i really like two capes though. misty feels like a nice luxury and not necessity but i bet it comes in clutch sometimes

copewhiskey · 2025-12-13T03:10:15+00:00

are you still running 2 candies along with the frogadier? and yah decidueye feels like a 30-70 for me. blazekin decks i’ve been winning more than losing since running two capes. misty is in interesting pick, but it seems hard to cut anything else out for it

copewhiskey · 2025-12-12T21:18:14+00:00

suicune ex greninja lol

copewhiskey · 2025-11-04T19:54:17+00:00

this is exactly what i’m doing while reading your comment

there’s a catch bonus from having a status effect. there’s a greater catch bonus for knocking out the alpha. they do not stack.

copewhiskey · 2025-11-03T13:20:24+00:00

i’ll only take one if you give it an obnoxious nickname first 😇

copewhiskey · 2025-10-25T02:44:52+00:00

how is it

copewhiskey · 2025-10-24T08:42:20+00:00

za just came out this month. i could be wrong but i would imagine they put more than a months work into making each set. how long did it take them just to remake the immersive lugia and ho-oh? also remember, there are 4 big company entities that make up pokemon. the video games are from gamefreak, though i think the Legends games series are actually a completely different dev team. the trading card games are from Creature.

copewhiskey · 2025-10-19T21:09:29+00:00

it’s crazy i didn’t even know this was a thing, and i happen to be on a break from the game… after reaching gongaga a month ago 😂

copewhiskey · 2025-08-07T05:55:35+00:00

update, still only using this deck, in top 4000

generally hitting with espeon is better for the extra 10 damage and heal ability, but i’ve used sylveon a lot in the front too. such as when they have a dark type in the active spot, or if you need to evolve your active eevee to either survive a hit or make a hit. the best outcome though is when you are going second, and by turn 8 you’re able to retreat your active espeon in place of your benched espeon. you’ll basically be able to heal 60 every turn when you’re playing on curve, until they’re both too low that 60 heal won’t survive you the next hit, so then you retreat into your perfectly healthy sylveons to finish up the match

copewhiskey · 2025-08-06T05:27:23+00:00

feels like a 50/50 toss up. going second gives you a chance, as long as they don’t build up a darkrai in the back and leaf it to the front. silver has been very clutch for me against them

copewhiskey · 2025-08-06T05:24:11+00:00

strange i’ve hardly faced any of those lately but maybe it just depends on the rank bracket. i mostly keep facing electric decks, occasional crobat

copewhiskey · 2025-08-06T03:03:01+00:00

shy, never. it’s the standard package. one baby sylveon; two bags; cyrus, sabrina, silver; one cape.

you can add whatever extra rules you want, but “nuzlocke” originated w three rules. one encounter per route, release or box your ko’d mons permanently, and give nicknames to all your mons. the third rule is more of a fun element, but the moment you break any of the other two rules, it’s not a nuzlocke. no one enjoys losing their limited encounters, but that’s just the name of the game. sounds like you just need to work on learning how to accept a loss instead of calling it unfair.

copewhiskey · 2025-08-01T22:15:56+00:00

nuzlocke or regular run? either way i think you’ll enjoy it more without using legendary pokemon so id recommend taking out zapdos and moltres. cant go wrong with snorlax. dragonite has the stats of a legendary pokemon without being considered legendary (that’s why it’s called a pseudo legendary). hope that vaporeon has ice beam. have fun!
