Comp. Pokemon Thread MK2: Let's Go Back To Kanto Like Everyone Wanted!

why would aegis care if they taunt him? they’re going to eat a shadow ball

Not being able to use king shield, if I remember correctly King’s shield 50/50s was one of the reasons it got banned last gen.

I’m not saying taunting a pokemon with 150 stats in attack is always a good idea, but if you really need it dead you can taunt - die - pursuit trap.

Which means it already did it’s job.

It depends on what job it had on their team, I used to do that in early gen 7 when I faced lots of teams that got swept free by pheromosa once their aegislash was dead.

Aegislash never bothered me. I always could deal with it.

it’s not a problem of dealing with it, it’s a problem of it being the absolute necessary thing to win with on a team (basically). it picks and chooses what is viable and what isn’t. it’s centralizing as fuck

Kind of like Tapu Lele and friends do now?

Huh… how about that?

no, they don’t. i’m literally playing the meta a lot more now and nothing controls the meta to the extent aegislash did. it’s actually quite fun right now. the issues currently is mostly a combo of mega meta/pheromosa/greninja causing the meta to be super offensive but it’s not the aegislash meta where it’s basically “do i beat aegis or not”

So votes on:

Pheromosa
Aegislash

Is that it?

honestly, i’d be okay with just aegislash being voted to ban. While i despise phero’s presence in the meta, i can’t 100% say she’s bannable right now. I think banning aegis would be much better cause of his control over any non-uber legendary meta

Since I spend most of my time playing on showdown I won’t offer up an opinion on the bans for this group.

I will say that I think (if Bious does want to ban anything) majority of the people in here despise Aegislash so I think you probably would do well yo insta-ban it since that typically is the consensus here from those that actually play the SRK meta.

Moods a pro at being incorrect… This dude swore Browser was booty butt cheeks in Smash 4, until he was proven wrong*(as usual)*… Take nothing he says about a metagame seriously.

If there’s a way to be wrong, Mood will find it.

Bowser was ass until he got buffed…

And you swore he was still ass after buffs, until players started beating shit like Cloud and Marth with him.

Shall we go over how wrong you were about Marth/Alolan Marowak/Muk as well?

Marth was bad
I was more upset with myself and i still dont think bowser can push it passed his current level, too many bad match ups

Alola-muk isnt good, he’s just a niche pick for teams that are super weak to tapu lele. Albeit he wad underestimated he’s still not very good

Alola-marowak was underrated, but this isnt just by me, no one knew how good ghost stab would be. He’s anti meta

Off topic but never thought I would ever see smash get patches for balance. Stopped playing a while ago but Mario was my main since N64…last I heard he kicked ass in this game…did they nerf him at all?

Mario’s Top 5 :coffee:

Funny thing is, Mario is like the only character that never got touched by patches outside of a readjustment to a custom FLUDD move(that no one ever used), IIRC.

Mario was always that good in Smash 4, he just got overlooked because other more retarded characters were(and still are) getting away with murder for half the effort.

He, and (sadly) Jigglypuff are two of the only characters to not be majorly affected by patches.

Oh shit I must be in the wrong thread my apologies.
