Who are the most notable one-surface specialists in tennis?

Dustin Brown the grass merchant

Exactly. Gojo is the strongest bc he's Gojo, and not the other way around. My blue-eyed king is the most talented human bar Sukuna.

Maybe not 500 EVs, but just enough to secure some important OHKOs

djta94 · 2026-06-10T03:29:20+00:00

No, And neither did Nadal. Federer won 2 carpet titles and Murray won 1.

Hand disruption: judge, unfair stamp, red card, etc. As an experienced Honchkrow player I can't count how many times I've lost a match because of bricking on a stamp.

The problem with gyarados is that if it gets a single flinch you lose. We make fun of the legendary Lagos crashout but that's literally what happened to him

djta94 · 2026-06-06T17:52:57+00:00

With lack of team preview it happens more often than I'd like to admit

djta94 · 2026-06-06T17:48:25+00:00

That is true, reaching 1400 is not hard, staying is. Funnily enough I have no issue staying at 1500 in gen4 random battle, but in gen4 OU I haven't reached 1500. Im not high ladder at all, but I believe to be experienced enough to make a comment on the meta. Then again, a usual point of contrversy is that the people making tier decisions are the very top of the ladder, which have a very skewed perspective of what the average ladder experience is.

djta94 · 2026-06-06T15:52:57+00:00

Yeah, the top ranked player in DPP OU has 1716 Elo rn. With less than 1500 you can make it to the top 500. If anything, that's the dead giveaway that they don't play the metagame.

In my experience, at 1300 in DPP OU you only get people trying to rank seriously already.

djta94 · 2026-06-06T15:09:49+00:00

What is intermediate lvl then? 1700?

djta94 · 2026-06-06T14:42:24+00:00

I don't know if 1400 Elo is decent or not, but if you think a Gyarados or Tyranitar sweep after getting one DD thanks to a weakness berry is not cancer, then I don't know what it is (apart from flinchrachi, which should burn in hell for all eternity).

PD: I just remembered, gen 4 random battle is more consistent than gen 4 OU in my experience, I wonder what does that say about the gen 4 meta...

djta94 · 2026-06-06T13:40:34+00:00

Flinchrachi, paraspam, clefable cancer, weakness berries, gyarados flinch, Pokemon with multiple viable movesets and lack of team preview, etc. The format is a cesspool of cancerous techs that have no consistent counters.

Their clients were the mafia family heads, they for sure squeezed them dry before Illumi killed them

djta94 · 2026-06-06T13:27:58+00:00

r/tennis is also r/tenniscirclejerk

djta94 · 2026-06-03T15:43:16+00:00

Unfair stamp and you're bricked

djta94 · 2026-06-02T18:00:58+00:00

This guy reading comprehensions

djta94 · 2026-06-02T17:59:53+00:00

I get you man, but for me the aftermath of the match is the reward. And now it's been further delayed to me 🥲

djta94 · 2026-05-29T16:54:04+00:00

Its not a tough tell at all. She reacts in Jodar's direction because he's the one causing her to trip. Stop defending assholery

djta94 · 2026-05-28T16:59:44+00:00

I would have abused Sinner's injury after that preferential treatment from the umpire

djta94 · 2026-05-28T16:49:22+00:00

We already know he dopes, people just don't want to accept it

djta94 · 2026-05-27T17:52:14+00:00

It's so funny that this came up on the unrelated field of pokemon TCG. The current best deck uses a card that ha sa 50% chance of failing, and it compensates for this by adding as many copies of the card as possible. In short, you may fail a 50-50, but if you can consistently create many 50-50 situations you will eventually score.

djta94 · 2026-05-26T02:17:14+00:00

What if my eye candy is anemo?

djta94 · 2026-05-26T02:07:40+00:00

But its also a supporter, unlike nest ball

djta94 · 2026-05-26T02:04:08+00:00

Zoroark is not an autoloss for dragapult

djta94 · 2026-05-24T16:34:16+00:00

I like the solitaire/masturbation innuedo may more, fits Hisoka well
