He'll get smashed in playoffs, but he usually dominates the initial rounds
Emvee and duncan are friends and they had an unspoken agreement to bring crazy sets, emvee screwed himself hard with his
Wolf's got a really tough matchup next week though
that sounds like the perfect situation to play special steelix, but neither had it i presume
Special steelix was standard in NU I think
sheer force life orb glitch?
Yeah, special attackers for some reason become exponentially better in lower tiers
why is this the first comment i see on the video
Conk basically sweeps from turn 1 and can mach punch vish, toad either walls or kills wolf's top tier picks, xatu almost entirely nullifies orbeetle, wolf still has no ground types to take on dracozolt, duraludon gets walled by av escavalier, arcanine's speed tier lets it kill almost all of wolf's team with prior damage
The one advantage wolf has is that grimmsnarl isn't that great vs him because it loses to his g-max, rotom can burn, avalugg always walls, and non-prankster whimsicott can encore/moonblast it
This set runs train on his team
how does it like being ditto countered?
It's not at all
Volt absorb lets it out-stall ditto's 5 pp
It doesn't need any other moves because wolf has no electric immunity, but flamethrower breaks through avalugg if need be
Thunder wave will let it harass everything that can break its sub, and ditto can't transform into something with a sub up
that MoistCr1tikal $20k prize pot smash tournament is on pace to have the largest smash tournament entrant count ever
I like that he explains taxes to the entrants
but only top 8 gets payouts and there is no chance a newbie makes top 8
except for rusp
who will win 1st

Elliot played like trash
Cybertron probably won't upload his for awhile because he is in Australia for that tournament Wolfey tweeted about
Hope he can use his vgc wins to bounce back in draft
he was commentating
Hope he can use his commentating to not spend a million years picking his moves in draft
every arcanine will be replaced with incineroar in march
They can't exclude a gen 7 starter from gen 8
Incineroar was by far the most used pokemon in last season
and box legends were legal
I saw his video on it
Almost feel like incineroar deserves an award
rotom wash being the most used rotom seems strange since people are saying its the worst of the relevant ones this season
Well, they want one to round out their teams don't they
why not go mow then?
Everyone's using arcanine, and grass doesn't have many great resists to help build a core
But you tell me
i don't fully understand why mow is the best anyway
nastyplot makes it viable is all I know
Is leaf storm single or multi target?
single
in this finals game from the Oceania tournament, the winner drain punched his own sylveon to win game 1
Doubles is something else
its strange that Pokemon has a $10k prize pool but Nintendo won't put any money into smash prize pots
no thats $15k
not dead though
what is this smash tournament
Rusp you play Mario, have fun https://youtu.be/fdszM8kfTik
@Rusp an unranked Ohio guy just beaten 2 top 10 players and made top 8 at the S tier
oh top 16 not 10
and 3 of them
Sorry I didn’t respond earlier I’m not home rn
Wow that’s crazy
he got 3-0ed by a sonic to get 7th
Just got beat by a sonic
Oh wow haha
He did well
he got sent to losers by maister
PacMan is best character
we have these nice state team names
and then big leek energy
and Bullet Punch Club
Duncan has a veteran ou player building his teams
I bet Wolfey is guaranteed if he wins one more
he must be since joey has 6 wins and did
What gives you that idea
You think 6 wins guarantees playoffs?
