Randoms are NOT good for competitive. It is a casual format. This guy is talking about win rate, strats and techniques. Which are pretty irrelevant in randoms, all you need to do is memorise movesets... (I know because I know many randoms players who have a massive spreadsheet just with the sets listed lol) This isn't a complex strategy. My advice would be get into OU, don't worry about teambuilding right away; just look at what tournament winners are using. Check multiple R1's of theirs, if you see a team pop up multiple times just copy that. Since it's a reliable team which they trust to win regularly. It's what every new player does, dip your toes into ranked and learn the metagame. Once you feel comfortable with that team copy two more. When you can use 3 copied teams correctly you should have a diverse and decent teampool, NOW is when you start to teambuild. Utilise the knowledge you picked up from these games with the copied teams, and pick a mon and build around it. Think of basic typing fundamentals and archetypes which you have seen (stall, balance, HO etc) , (you can also check smogon for this) The start will be rough, your teams will suck. But it really shouldn't take long due to the fact you have already picked up a decent amount of knowledge & experience with the copied teams.

no takers? 😞 clown laugh reacting but too scared to take. Sad

10m on myself 5m deers win tiebreak 5m pablo middleman needed.

Congrats!

You have no idea what you are talking about - at any point. It is a mystery how you are allowed to keep polluting threads with contain actual valuable discussion. Anyone who actually plays OU knows stall largely hasn't been affected. Balance has suffered the most by FAR.

For me every problem stems from the recovery moves being changed. Whenever I have tried to build any archetype which is not offense I feel pigeon holed into using Mien + Amoonguss because otherwise I either just get ran over by offense centered around Dnite / Gyara / Chomp etc. And If I don't use them I lose a war of attrition against balanced Regen cores using MienAmoong. If you ban Amoonguss you are just putting a bandage over an open wound gushing out blood. The real problem is the change to the recovery moves which came so left field, people who want to use Balance / Stall are pretty much forced to immediately have the first 2 slots as Mien / Amoonguss as they are the only form of longevity left in the tier. What is causing this? The fact every other god damn wall only has 8 recovery moves.

More monotype @KaynineXL I need to see @Moiput in that work

Use the format above. Anything not using the above format will not be counted. OU only cos I am lazy to sort through everything and OU is the best tier in the game so... If QuinnW wins he will not be paid, instead his debt to me will be nullified. *ANY GUESSES WILL BE VOIDED AFTER THE FIRST OU GAME IS PLAYED SO POST FAST! *Anything edited after any game is played will be voided REDONE COS I FORGOT OU3 IN THE LAST ONE

Take also betting 1m on myself (taken by 4f)
