  1. Yea it did, by usage ! Then people realized Moxie Mence sucks in OU :'D Honestly tho Mence sounds overwhelming, as our only defensive steel is going to be Bronzong. We also lost Mammoswine since it was last implemented into the tier (maybe we lost Mammo during the Mence UU era actually, unsure) ๐Ÿ˜ข Let's find out !
  2. Some day before you played probably (early seasons like s3 or 4) we decided to ban Roserade & Rhyperior shortly after they dropped to NU. They were really overwhelming not gonna lie, Rhyperior was the type of mon that you couldn't really check/counter and that always ended up enforcing a sac or a trade kill. I'm unsure if Rhyperior was ever suspected to drop back down since then (same thing for Durant who has been banned from NU for ages, like 2018 or something)
  3. Honest question why host so many tours at 3pm UTC ? Not just talking about you but staff in general... It's not typically a good time for EU/America as they are working hours and also not a good time for China because starting at 11pm is really late (likely ending at 2am+). Altho I see plenty of signups today (maybe 100+ ?) so that must mean this time is suitable for many. Someone enlighten me on the reason ?
  4. Could be even more, yes. That's why Raikou sell on the market and does not need a sink, unlike Articuno which nobody want and have a price massive decrease over time. And I'm not insulting you, I'm stating the obvious ๐Ÿ™‚
  5. Someone is clueless about the game, I see ๐Ÿ™‚ Multiple legendaries are required for PVP purposes, and your suggestion would not help legendaries sink in any way since there would just be even more on the market that nobody could buy. Actually people would not be able to catch legendaries either so no shiny hunting for them possible at all.
  6. 1m that Tyrantrums win the week (against Vodka Juniors). Void if tie ๐Ÿ™‚
  7. Changing names week 2 sounds like a skill issue ... โ˜ ๏ธ
  8. I don't think all lineups are decided yet ๐Ÿ™‚
  9. Rest in peace Oliver.
  10. If you explose you die first so you also lose. This same logic applies to all things (recoil, self-ko, dbond) and there is nothing to be changed there ๐Ÿ™‚
  11. This joins my point that the damage calculations on walls from sunbreakers in sun are irrelevant. The point is can you revenge kill it or waste sun turns, not can you tank it because you can't
  12. Weird take bud. Enjoy your rat face and dead jellifish hat. They're just as cool as your sig ๐Ÿ™„
  13. The thing is calc'ing sunbreakers in sun is kind of meaningless because there has been many that were unwallable before (i.e. Darmanitan in sun in OU). Mostly the only safe way of handling it is sending Sand setters which also happen to handle Entei, or send a faster mon capable of taking 1 hit and revenge killing (Flygon) which is risky unless you know it is band, because Xspeed does too much. Could also argue that Sun has overall a bad winrate (Ninetales has 47%), which means Entei having a winrate of 56% could imply that Entei out of sun has a much higher winrate than we'd think ?
  14. Imo the concept could be but it just turns out looking flattened because of the model size. I would prefer if it didn't have that weird angle in the front view. Legit underrated it tho ur right
  15. And here goes the viability tierlist of these PVP vanity : S TIER ๐Ÿ”ฅ-- Lucario, Porygon2 A TIER ๐Ÿ˜„-- Sylveon, Snover, Mareep, Owlet, Litten B TIER ๐Ÿ˜-- Bidoof, Roserade, Pachirisu, Chimchar, Slowking, Cubchoo C TIER ๐Ÿ˜ญ-- Dunsparce, Snivy, Slowbro, Popplio Z TIER โ˜ ๏ธ-- Parasect, Tentacruel, Raticate
  16. You can breed a nature on your shiny using another shiny tho. Enjoy ๐Ÿ™‚
  17. I'm not going to rank my team as it makes no sense (we are #1 ofc). For the rest I'd say : Top 2 - Lumiรจre, Enchant Middle of the pack - Necas, Queest, Wallaro Bottom 2 - Matthew, RDL Not taking too much risk there but I don't feel like someone is particularily above the rest in their own category so I couldn't rank these auctions in a different way
  18. Let's go PSL is back ! May the luckiest win ๐Ÿ™‚
  19. Say Meltdown is from USA and plays at GMT-6 period of time, he's mostly facing opponents from american continent (evening in the week, daytime weekends) Now say CFHSW is from China and plays GMT+8 timezone, he's most likely facing off against other chinese players who play in the same time as him (evening in the week, daytime on weekends). Now you can compare the amount of Chinese players in very high elo with the amount of Northern and Southern Americans in very high elo. You could easily conclude that CFHSW has been playing against much higher elo players in average during his grind, while Meltdown probably farmed a lot of mid/low elos. Another effect could be that the 2nd player started grinding his ranked games much later, when everyone else on the ladder was higher in overall elo, meaning more gains and less loss for him than someone who would start from day 1.
  20. 1m Tyrants win the week, void if tie. (Taken by Clayclover) 500k I win against NestyMore. 250k Shelly wins against BadButG Only betting with trustworthy people
  21. Quality suspect post by Azphiel. My respects.
  22. I feel like that's how the item works nowadays. Probably has been changed since the initial post. Doesn't it ?
  23. Entei is clearly too strong for the tier overall however there are still some good checks to his limited movepool. Kinda the same issue as mons like PZ/Crawdaunt they can be overcentralizing because their answers are limited (especially Entei in Sun actually), the issue with Entei being access to such a strong prio and 100 speed tier which is top tier for UU, combined with his great bulk it's quite hard to even revenge kill it. I believe he's actually way stronger than Shaymin was, but they have a different kind of role so Shaymin was deemed banworthy because potentially unwallable (with RNG) while Entei is walled but harder to actually outplay by offense teams, since most offensive water/rock mons are scared of burn and fires usually lose if they switch in. About the checks Flacu mentionned : I believe with Empoleon being gone Vaporeon will become more prominent. Poliwrath can actually check it really nicely even offensive sets, you just have to build them properly. Rhyperior / Gigalith / Druddigon can only tempo Entei for a bit but are badly crippled by the burn because lack of recovery and lack of damage after the burn. Hippowdon / Gligar can rly counter it but they don't like the burn either. Flygon & Gastrodon are probably the best answers if played with special moves & defensive investments. Not rly much to say about these. Also can't assume Entei is going to be adamant, you'd be surprised how good jolly can be as well (so Flygon is not guaranteed to outspeed) So to conclude, the amount of mons offense can easily slot to play around Entei is realistically 2 : Flygon and Poliwrath. Altho still plenty of options are available as you can see (outside of sun).
