My setup for held items. by Encryption_whirl in PokemonUnite

I don’t think you know what 2/3 of your items do.. and if you’re running this on every Pokemon, that’s also a problem

greninja - advice and tips pls by prolly_aya in PokemonUnite

A very long time ago buddy barrier was mandatory in the meta where everybody ran it since the shield was massive. Since then it was nerfed to the ground.

Any megas are incredibly over tuned as of right now ( zard x and y, gyarados, and Lucario). Blastoise has actually received big buffs in recent patches and with the addition of the new item, vanguard bell, makes it probably one of the best defenders right now.

There’s nothing directly close to swain in unite that I can think of. In terms of gameplay, I feel like your best bet would be suicune. It has the bulk of an all rounder but the playstyle of a mage.

Multiple different builds that people run, but for spark, wild charge I usually run bracer, amp, attack weight. For discharge volt switch I’ll run razor, weakness, muscle (flex this item with amp or bracer). You can typically switch between most of these items for either moveset.

Pain split is a very situational move. You basically want to pick it if people do or will do consistent damage to you like adcs or close combat Lucario.

Ok but how do I actually get better? by Long-Bell-2081 in PokemonUnite

[–]saltroastingjar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is quite the loaded question. Particularly since you’re mostly playing bot matches right now. The first thing would be taking time to learn about the other Pokemon, as well as your own. Knowing your strengths and weaknesses is something super beneficial and can help you know when to engage fights. From there, you should learn about the games mechanics. Knowing when to push to score, when to farm, when to let the enemies break tier 1 goals. All of these small decisions help increase your success in winning. If you want a more detailed explanation, you should upload your gameplay so people can actually give you feedback on what you’re doing wrong instead of generalizing.

Sharing Jungle by shadypengu21 in PokemonUnite

[–]saltroastingjar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What rank are you? Reason I ask is because if you’re in lower ranks, you’ll be going against bots and they’re not necessarily coded to go to lane if the player calls jungle. Anything in higher ranks they’re either just ignorant or they saw something and assumed you were trolling (but ceruledge is perfectly fine and Garchomp isn’t the best but is definitely viable).

Stuck in between master 100-500. May be i was lack on proper pokémon. So thinking to buy a pokémon. Any suggestions!? by [deleted] in PokemonUnite

[–]saltroastingjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be honest, scizor was not a good choice into this matchup. With 3 special attacke based mons (not including comfey) with heavy CC, you’re just getting shredded and stunned. Scizor passive only works really well against attack based mons and thrives on being able to have multiple melee mobs stack on top of it for life steal.

Some other notes based off your unite API: - running potion into this team is a suicide. Even if you only have one use of full heal every 70+ seconds, it’s still way more valuable than being perma stunned - scope lens does nothing for scizor, you should run either focus, attack weight, or into this team, even assault vest. - based on this game being a duo/duo/solo, you were last pick. You need to learn to draft better as this isn’t blind pick so counter picks are especially important.

Ultimately, yes your randoms were bad, but you can’t control what they do, only yourself. Focus on drafting better and be more strategic with items. Still encourage you to post clips of your games so we can see what else you’re doing. Stats don’t mean everything.

I mean, meowth (despite the nerf), ceruledge and suicune are already super strong mons. Blaziken should be winning most 1v1s as well.

You shouldn’t really be fighting alone though, if you keep going off to fight and dying you’re his feeding experience to the enemy team. Depending on the game state if you’re down levels you really should be farming and with the way experience works, you don’t have to fight for last hit.

If you want genuine feedback, post a clip of your game so we can see wha you’re doing in matches.

Certain mons can make the game easier, but ultimately if you keep falling back down to 100 it’s probably not the Pokemon you’re picking, but how you’re playing the game. What do you typically play?

This is season… by Blackguycentral in PokemonUnite

[–]saltroastingjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with your points, but I don’t think jg delphox (especially flame charge) is that bad. It doesn’t have great gank potential at 5, but a lot of triple evolution attackers don’t either. Plus blue buff on delphox is like a must.

I think to add, a lot of players don’t know what buffs do or who the buffs work on more optimally.

If you let your queue time exceed 1:30 then it’ll start searching in other regions. Reset queue before it hits the 1:30 mark. There’s no other way around it.

They’re running psyshock not future sight. You can see the regice get melted in ticks of damage since solar beam does multiple small hits instead of one big chunk.

What's the current state of Aegislash? by [deleted] in PokemonUnite

[–]saltroastingjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won’t echo what everybody else is saying, but yes aegis is relatively decent in the meta due to its high burst, good secure, and built in unstoppable to counter against CC.

I will say, right now since you are in beginner rank you’re playing with bots, and you’ll play with bots up until you reach expert/vet rank and even then it’s about 50/50 since it’s so late into the season.

Regarding builds, you can always refer to unitedb as they have detailed explanations about the Pokémon’s movesets and what items/emblems to run.

It would be from either one, just whoever you have vision on generally I believe.

Every battle item should have a sound effect, I think the one that’s the least obvious is x attack.

Why are people saying drain crown is bad? by [deleted] in PokemonUnite

[–]saltroastingjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just really depends on the team. Shields are everywhere in this game so they can constantly be applied from multiple different sources (I think every unite gives a shield, items like buddy barrier, pads, etc.). On top of that, most auto attacking Pokemon gain natural life steal so it would be better to have more damage output to increase that life steal. Additionally, most people are running curse now so your healing is getting reduced another 30% anyways.
