molten oasis

You have Tera as well

autumn vault
#

I am going to chill here while i shiny hunt Zekrom

autumn vault
molten oasis
#

Inti koraidon lead rilla zama set up and then go from there

timber falcon
#

ill just not lead zama

molten oasis
charred saddle
#

bro its a set up mon and not a sweep

bold geode
charred saddle
#

you most likely need to have it early to gain advantage

timber falcon
#

so then what tera

molten oasis
#

Ghost

timber falcon
#

hmm

bold geode
#

Sometimes you just have to say fuck it we ball
Also yes Ghost Zama

charred saddle
#

and burning tera =/= insta lose

timber falcon
#

ok ill try ghost

torn parrot
#

I love ghost Zama

charred saddle
#

just position it well, and knowing ur late game

timber falcon
#

but thinking of 2 mons that zama dont like, crits are feeling risky

#

that being both shifus

molten oasis
#

Stop with the crits

timber falcon
#

IM TALKING SHIFUS

molten oasis
#

Also yiu beat single strike and rilla beats rapid

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

Why are you remotely worried about urshifu

charred saddle
timber falcon
charred saddle
#

u have flutter for dark shifu

molten oasis
torn parrot
#

I liek fast af Zama so that after an iron defense I can go turbo without risking too many hits
Especially from ogerpons

molten oasis
#

Think about this

torn parrot
#

Also just nice to be fast

timber falcon
#

the reason i made zama water type is cause of rain surging strike

molten oasis
#

If you see a urshifu rapid on lead

#

What are you leading

timber falcon
#

rilla and smth else

molten oasis
#

And zama

#

Go straight for fo on shifu

timber falcon
#

this is assuming they arent obviously gonna read that

molten oasis
#

You don’t care about torn (if that’s led with it)

#

Or you wood hammer and get damage/kill shifu

#

If you say “they’re gonna read that” you’re never gonna get anywhere

#

Predictability=/=bad

bold geode
timber falcon
#

if were talking high ladder, yeah doubling up isnt it in that situation

molten oasis
#

Tf are you on

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

Fo pressure causes a loss of momentum

#

And who said you weren’t clicking iron defense

timber falcon
#

im a bit slow

#

so FO and iron defence?

molten oasis
#

Yes

timber falcon
#

ok so in that case. i still need someone who can KO shifu whikst keepong zama safe

#

but who

molten oasis
#

RILLABOOM

timber falcon
#

i dont think its OHKOs

#

does it?

molten oasis
#

Wood hammer 100% does

bold geode
#

I'm pretty sure you can EV to live Surging fairly nicely

timber falcon
#

u dont struggle with rain surging strike?

timber falcon
bold geode
#

+1 252+ Atk Mystic Water Tera-Water Urshifu-Rapid Strike Surging Strikes (3 hits) vs. 252 HP / 172+ Def Zamazenta-Crowned on a critical hit: 156-186 (78.3 - 93.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Ez

molten oasis
#

So many multipliers damn

timber falcon
#

ok so what im seeing here, is that i am gonna need another strong offensive threat in the back

molten oasis
#

Your own urshifu and fluttermane

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

RAPID STRIKE

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

hitting fire and ground like I said before

bold geode
molten oasis
#

That too

torn parrot
#

I’m a fan of cucking out rapid strike with prankster will o wisp

molten oasis
#

sableye…

timber falcon
#

ok i guess ill add rapid strike

torn parrot
#

GL sir

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

but what rapid strike set

molten oasis
#

Well anyway

#

Scarf, what other set do you run if scarf is open lol

timber falcon
#

i gotta think first

#

on which helps the team the most

#

reasons arkeknine

molten oasis
#

Scarf gives you some speed control

bold geode
#

Also in rain

252+ Atk Mystic Water Tera-Water Urshifu-Rapid Strike Surging Strikes (3 hits) vs. 252 HP / 172+ Def Zamazenta-Crowned in Rain on a critical hit: 168-198 (84.4 - 99.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

timber falcon
#

so ill use ur evs

molten oasis
#

Just go scarf

#

Lando I is a problem

timber falcon
#

scarf it is

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

Wha?

#

Don’t change ev’s just cuz

timber falcon
#

what rilla set though

molten oasis
#

Av

timber falcon
#

but why

#

what threat do i wanna live

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

…

timber falcon
#

i actually think av isnt my move here

bold geode
#

AV is alright

timber falcon
#

i have one main weakness rn

bold geode
#

Unless you have something else that wants AV

molten oasis
#

I’m gonna blow a gasket

timber falcon
#

so taunt rilla?arkeknine

molten oasis
#

Run Hearthflame for amoonguss

timber falcon
#

no

molten oasis
#

Alright then

torn parrot
timber falcon
#

i dont like the tripple flying weakness

molten oasis
timber falcon
#

noo drago dont go GengarSad

torn parrot
#

I got assault vest ting lu and taunt sitrus berry bulky Rillaboom

molten oasis
#

Ok so you want an amoonguss answer that isn’t weak to flying

#

That also hurts it

timber falcon
#

mhm

molten oasis
#

Yea your options there are extremely limited cuz idt there’s many offensive mons that like goggles rn

timber falcon
#

yeah so taunt rilla

molten oasis
#

Run hearth

bold geode
molten oasis
#

Just suck up the 3 flying weaknesses

#

As in torn cuz flying coverage is extremely rare

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

You eat moves from chi yu flutter and torn better

timber falcon
#

ill just run a bulky rilla

molten oasis
#

That doesn’t make up for the loss of av

timber falcon
#

hmm

molten oasis
#

Run hearth

#

You said you wanted an amoonguss answer that’s your most consistent option

autumn vault
molten oasis
#

It’s a zama team you want rilla

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

Imo yes

#

If it Tera’s you click the grass move

#

Since it’s typically water

autumn vault
timber falcon
#

if it teras im fine, i want it to tera

#

ok ok, ill add hearth for now

molten oasis
#

You can also go for a more supportive hearth to redirect spores

#

Also good into sun

timber falcon
#

2 slots left

molten oasis
#

???

#

We had zama rilla shifu flutter and now hearth I thought?

timber falcon
#

?

#

flutter wasnt set in stone for me

molten oasis
#

ok then

timber falcon
#

so what does flutter contribute again?

molten oasis
#

Why do you- k

timber falcon
#

tofu said

#

i should go over reasons first

molten oasis
#

Yea, no that’s fair

#

Sorry

timber falcon
#

nah its aight, afterall im relying on u here lol

molten oasis
#

Flutter deals with single strike which post Tera you could struggle with (although you definitely should be able to just beat single strikes)

#

Uh, oh well, ig it’s not doing much

#

im getting my essay I submitted late annotated like crazy I think it sucks lol

timber falcon
#

actually, what does my team do so koraidon fire tera'

molten oasis
#

You body press it

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

Oh yea

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

Grass mons used to be able to go to sleep

solid frigate
timber falcon
molten oasis
#

From koraidon???

timber falcon
#

yes

molten oasis
#

We discussed a battle plan already

timber falcon
#

i forgot arkeknine

molten oasis
#

Iron defense and fake it out

timber falcon
#

oh ok simple enough

molten oasis
#

If you need to Tera to dodge damage

solid frigate
#

Me when Wolfey Mention and Diss Greninja in the video:

molten oasis
#

my essay has like 30 annotations wtf

timber falcon
#

lul

solid frigate
#

damn

timber falcon
#

better focus on that essay for now, i think i can figure it out from here

molten oasis
#

I did half ass it cuz I wanted it done

solid frigate
#

i need to make Essays for Restricted Pokemon stuff after tmr's Exam

molten oasis
#

Nah I can’t fix anything on it

#

It’s whatever

#

Anyway

#

You have rilla hearth zama and rapid strike

timber falcon
#

mhm mhm

#

i feel like i could go for better than flutter however

#

ima add a defensive mon

molten oasis
#

Incin

timber falcon
#

why

#

intim is one

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

More fo pressure

#

Improved the caly mu

timber falcon
#

true true

#

actually i dont have a great caly-s MU

mighty stump
solid frigate
molten oasis
#

Lul

timber falcon
#

he comes, he promotes, he goes🗣️

molten oasis
#

Anyway, incin good here

timber falcon
#

anyyyywayyyyy

#

tying wise though

#

its not great for my team

molten oasis
#

I think you’re fine into icerex

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

Shadowrex isn’t the same situation tho

timber falcon
#

zama DOES have wide guard actually

#

and rilla 2 taps

molten oasis
#

Oh apparently my essay was fine lmfao

#

I just forgot to credit the citations

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

I’m good at halfassing essays arkeknine

timber falcon
#

i think chien pao over incin here btw

molten oasis
#

…

timber falcon
#

ik they dont do the same thing

#

but i really think being able to SE flying, annoy caly-s and help the rest is good

molten oasis
#

Pao is fine but having double fo let’s zama set up more freely

timber falcon
#

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

molten oasis
#

Some run draining kiss as well

timber falcon
#

hmm true

molten oasis
#

Mm but then again you have rilla

#

Just like as a note, adding pao is a lot of weaknesses including an overlap to fire

timber falcon
#

Oh yeah

#

Oh oh wait

molten oasis
#

Which is fine, but just be aware of that

timber falcon
#

Ok dark type is a must rn

#

I just realised I’m open to Eforce

molten oasis
#

Could also go ting

timber falcon
#

Ting is nice here

#

Buffs zama indirectly

molten oasis
#

Mhmm

timber falcon
#

Just lose to Eforce caly when testing the current 4

#

Ting it is

molten oasis
#

Well you have rilla so necessary

#

But having a dark type helps

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

Womp womp

timber falcon
#

And zama got OHKOd due to me being out played GengarSad

#

Btw if ting is here, who gets vest?

molten oasis
#

Yiu got ohkoed what???

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

Ah

timber falcon
#

Tera fire

molten oasis
#

Damn

#

Uh anyway

timber falcon
#

Goggles tingy lu?

#

Or swap av

molten oasis
#

I think ting does prefer av

timber falcon
#

Ok I’ll run sitrus Rilla

molten oasis
#

So let’s give rilla miracle seed or sitrus

#

Yea that works

timber falcon
#

Taunt Rilla is back

molten oasis
#

Idt you really need taunt but ok

timber falcon
#

Taunt is helpful though

molten oasis
#

Yea fair

#

Taunting incin out of parting shot can be huge

timber falcon
#

there’s fighting types though

molten oasis
#

Or stopping tr

#

I think having redirection is valuable

#

But you can do that and probably be fine

timber falcon
#

Then, what goes last

#

I might got full attack here

#

I want smth that resists or is immune to lance

molten oasis
#

Nothing is immune to lance

#

Not that I’d be worried about it

#

Uh

#

Generally considering flutter

#

Dodging fo is nice and you get a fighting immunity

#

Also flutter just good

timber falcon
#

lol I almost lose to specs terapagos

timber falcon
#

If I was to go for flutter, which set though

molten oasis
solid frigate
#

back

solid frigate
solid frigate
timber falcon
#

mhm thats right

mighty stump
#

Specs Terapagos was the first set in Japan

timber falcon
#

oh>

mighty stump
#

Cause you just openly spammed Tera Starstorm since you didn't have a lot of considerations in Dragon King cup

#

Particularly cause no one had experience with Terapagos

molten oasis
#

Tera starstorm go brr

solid frigate
#

the gloog

molten oasis
#

Lol

solid frigate
#

Me when Gloog Cure my depression

#

Terapagos becomes my antidepressant

molten oasis
#

I need to get one of these

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

I have to spend at least $50 lol

foggy lodge
#

Skeledirge is actually really good wtf

#

I think i'm gonna change the alluring voice for snarl

solid frigate
#

holy shit nvm

foggy lodge
#

There's one at 20 dollars

#

It could be worse

molten oasis
#

Yea

timber falcon
#

i cant use the team lol

#

ive lost every battle to caly-ice

#

and amoongus

solid frigate
#

Normal Baby Form or Terastal form

molten oasis
timber falcon
#

dont have................ but i can tell u what always happens

#

its the same thing

torn parrot
#

Mama Mia

solid frigate
timber falcon
#

basically, i cant stop them from setting up or shutting down zama

#

caly sets tr, if i taunt that zama sleeps,

#

if i taunt moongus tr is set

#

if i send in fire pon, they prot and set tr or tera

solid frigate
#

fake out+Taunt?

torn parrot
#

Amoongus calyrex ice sounds annoying

timber falcon
solid frigate
#

thats a problem

timber falcon
#

maybe i need incin actually

#

that helps

#

goggles taunt incin

molten oasis
#

That’s why we need replays

molten oasis
timber falcon
#

Yeah I’ll try and keep em next time

molten oasis
#

You need to pick if you want to taunt or fake out

solid frigate
timber falcon
#
  1. I don’t think ting Lu is needed 2. Incin + Rilla combo is wanted 3. Urshifu is an island mon rn
#

What’s been happening rn

#

Lastly I need a consistent amoongus stopper that does NOT get OHKOd by caly-ice

#

Cause that’s what happens to Rilla every time

molten oasis
#

That’s not a real thing

#

Besides goggles taunt incin which is a lot and you lose your access to snarl

#

And knock off, which incin generally wants more

timber falcon
#

I actually thin for this team I can leave blitz incin

molten oasis
#

…

willow vault
#

…

molten oasis
#

why

timber falcon
#

If I fill the holes properly

molten oasis
#

I love losing incins 1 way of dealing consistent big damage

timber falcon
#

Cause, body press does it better

molten oasis
#

Ok if I go

foggy lodge
torn parrot
#

Did you end up keeping that firepon

molten oasis
#

“Urshifu surging strikes does enough damage I don’t need flare blitz”

#

Or

timber falcon
#

Ok ok, I’ll keep blitz I get the point

#

Buuttt

molten oasis
#

“Wellspring does so much inti grass types I don’t need flare blitz”

foggy lodge
#

@timber falcon can i see the team?

timber falcon
#

ok one sec

mighty stump
#

Need a way to counter Zamazenta?

#

Incineroar with Tera-Ghost + Darkest Lariat

timber falcon
molten oasis
#

We’re building with

mighty stump
#

😎

molten oasis
#

Not against, but that’s funny

foggy lodge
#

With flare blitz darkest lariat fake out and cross chop

willow vault
#

I mean I’ve been using chien-pao with sacred sword which is pretty decent into zamazenta

foggy lodge
#

Worst mistake of my life

timber falcon
#

wait no, i can just tera im dumb

torn parrot
#

tera ghost feels so great against sacred sword

timber falcon
#

i have ghost frikcing tera and i NEVER did that

willow vault
timber falcon
#

im bad at using teams i just built

willow vault
#

Give it time you’ll get better at using it

timber falcon
#

im noyt used to the options'

willow vault
#

So give it time and you’ll get more adjusted to your options

mighty stump
#

Tera-Ghost Zamazenta is superior

timber falcon
#

i did water cause i was sacred lol

molten oasis
timber falcon
#

scared

mighty stump
timber falcon
#

should i be saving all replays btw

mighty stump
#

I have 20 different teams in Reg G builder rn

torn parrot
#

I tried water but I missed being nuetral into fire water grass and having minimal weaknesses and being immune to fake out and other body pressers and fighting types

mighty stump
timber falcon
#

ok

molten oasis
#

Ghost Tera would be good on this for example?

molten oasis
timber falcon
#

ok

molten oasis
#

Not gonna play with it but it’s just like, for the future

#

(The team)

timber falcon
foggy lodge
timber falcon
#

heres one

foggy lodge
#

Saving replays is always good

molten oasis
#

If you’re gonna review them

foggy lodge
#

Atleast having them there can help

#

If you play a match against someone who is good

#

Independant if you win or lose, save the replay

honest vector
timber falcon
#

next i lose to quick guard talon flame, dont think i gotta share that one though

foggy lodge
#

what

timber falcon
#

tried fo kyogre and boom

now im getting jumped by tera blast flying riakou

love to see it SadMimiGun

fluid fiber
#

I feel like it's in a really healthy spot atm

timber falcon
#

palafin vs zama that has used iron defence, game should be mine

foggy lodge
#

Just change teratypes

timber falcon
#

LOVE TO SEE IT 😭

fluid fiber
timber falcon
foggy lodge
#

Rillaboom tera fire

#

Sableye hmmm

#

Maybe steel?

#

It covers Sableye's only weakness and adds a ton of resistances

#

And Terapagos and Ogerpon-WP can't change their tera types

timber falcon
#

Btw @molten oasis the flying weakness is a problem

fluid fiber
#

You think leftovers Terapagos or Pherb is better

timber falcon
#

why does this happen to me

image.png
#

i cant catch a break in these games😭

grizzled bronze
#

that's unfortunate

foggy lodge
molten oasis
#

...

foggy lodge
#

With leftovers + grassy you can reuse the tera shell

molten oasis
#

how are you trying to deal with it

foggy lodge
#

So you don't get destroyed by a fake out and next turn a Close combat

timber falcon
molten oasis
timber falcon
#

oh u were talking to me

#

well, i cant deal with that

watched wolfey live, was fun

that corviknight set in the top 8 was awesome

timber falcon

i went 2-3 at round 5, i wasn't prepared for the lando set that was everywhere

timber falcon

oh ok 2 wins is nice

for ur first

solid frigate

yeah i met a guy who went 0-4

he was bragging about bringing tera fire dark-urshifu with fire punch

before they started

i dunno man

at regionals

timber falcon

# dapper crag

Ok if he uses Ice Punch at least i guess he want to remove the Genies,But FIRE???

#

yeah i ain't

tulip field
#

yeah man

#

will probably try making a koraidon team for reg G

#

what have people been running with it?

#

any chlorophyll or?

solid frigate
tulip field
#

ooo

#

how is the little turtle

mighty stump
#

Koraidon teams tend to go with Tornadus/Raging Bolt/Flutter Mane stuff so far

tulip field
#

thought so

mighty stump
#

Rarely any Chlorophyll users, I wouldn't be surprised if it picks up

#

But Hilligant has overlap, probably just Venusaur.

#

Walking Wake I think is almost a requirement particularly because of Groudon

tulip field
#

yeah i love walking wake

solid frigate
mighty stump
#

Terapagos has two formulas in particulary

timber falcon
#

do i just forfeit

mighty stump
#

Depends on what you have lol

since running a bunch of proto

mhm mhm

oh i think i can win this

do it

let me cook

BETHEMOTH BASH GO bRRRRRRRR

timber falcon
mighty stump
#

Your opponent played like shit wtf

timber falcon
#

IK LOL

#

threw big time, the game was his

mighty stump
#

Also idk why you cared so much about killing A9

tulip field
#

i fought someone at regionals who brought protect on 5/6 pokemon, and never used it except for a double protect

#

broke my ankles

timber falcon
tulip field
#

*one double protect

timber falcon
#

btw i do think the team lacks a bit of synergy

#

but im still trialing rn

#

another loss

molten oasis
#

tbf

#

he got 2 crits that definitely mattered

timber falcon
#

always losing to caly idk what to do about it

molten oasis
#

your target prioritization needs work

#

you always fo the p2 there

#

rilla also stayed in too long imo

timber falcon
#

ok

molten oasis
#

after the taunt you needed to switch

timber falcon
#

thats the problem though

#

no safe swaps

pearl wind
molten oasis
#

why didn't you bring shifu?

timber falcon
#

amoongus and rilla

molten oasis
#

you still bring shifu

timber falcon
#

why

molten oasis
#

the ice resist

timber falcon
#

ok

molten oasis
#

cuz you clearly needed something to switchin there

#

and since you dont have resist there wasnt a way to do so

timber falcon
#

even if i swapped, what then

molten oasis
#

and shifu is good for incin

molten oasis
timber falcon
#

porygon just killes

#

another L

molten oasis
#

its better to get your fo pressure in safely at least

timber falcon
#

i do think i need to redo the team into one i can pilot

#

cause this is too many frequent losses

#

ill take a break and get back to it later

solid frigate
#

I think my new team in Reg F is probably the best team i made so far

willow vault
#

Nice

solid frigate
#

i just have a stupid thought

#

Weakness Policy Kyogre arkeknine

#

(I will still run Scarf Kyogre)

#

that happened in SWSH

solid frigate
#

assault vest Kyogre tanks

atomic mural
#

I dont know where to begin for my 6th

solid frigate
#

Walking Wake?

#

ok outside of Flutter Mane,there is barely any speed Control

solid frigate
#

icy wind is not enough for speed control since Trick Room Teams Exists

tulip field
#

first time using koraidon

solid frigate
#

Oh.. Against a Kyogre Team

#

Trick Room Kyogre?

tulip field
#

thats why we bring prankster sunny day

#

i think their plan was to combine slower moving pokemon placing weather last with trick room

#

i guess?

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

Wack ass team

solid frigate
#

you did very well

relatively tanky koraidon with drain punch

and breaking swipe

i am

molten oasis
#

Ok

tulip field
#

thinking of whether to go assault vest or clear amulet

molten oasis
#

Clear amulet is generally the go to item

tulip field
#

mhm mhm

molten oasis
#

Then you run collision course flare blitz and breaking swipe/dragon claw, and protect

#

Could also go flare blitz collision course and bulk up

#

Or swords dance (if it gets that)

tulip field
#

it does

molten oasis
#

Then swords dance

tulip field
#

i really like the recovery from drain punch, should i replace collision course with swords dance?

molten oasis
#

You have to run collision course

#

The recovery is nice, but it’s not necessary

tulip field
#

i suppose i need a non-attack to avoid sucker punch since im tera ghost

molten oasis
#

If restricteds have signature moves you use them cuz they’re usually very good

molten oasis
tulip field
#

because it'll hurt?

molten oasis
#

Are you Tera ghost

tulip field
#

yes

molten oasis
#

No combine the 2 lol

tulip field
#

thats what im saying

molten oasis
#

I meant to send the second part before you sent… why are you Tera ghost

tulip field
#

oh

#

because it's not weak to fairy and has a couple immunities

solid frigate
#

steel is an alternative

#

but mostly fire

tulip field
#

i really don't want to be weak to ground either

molten oasis
#

For groudon I assume?

torn parrot
tulip field
#

groudon, lando, etc

#

yeah

molten oasis
#

You’re running wake

#

Wake wrecks all of the ground types

solid frigate
#

its good in sun AND Rain

tulip field
#

mhm mhm

molten oasis
#

Yep

solid frigate
#

and having teams that can operate in both weathers is nice

tulip field
#

think i should run weather ball over flamethrower on walking wake?

strange fjord
#

why would you?

molten oasis
#

I personally would prefer flamethrower

#

As you only benefit from weather ball in snow and sun, and like, I’d rather just have fire coversge

tulip field
#

true

strange fjord
#

Hydro Steam works in both Sun and Rain and Weather Ball is only slightly better Flamethrower IF Sun is up.

tulip field
#

lmao walking wake gets roar

strange fjord
#

Roaring Wake

solid frigate
tulip field
#

not sure what to pick for 4th move on wake

#

lots of options

molten oasis

#

lorb

Protect

tulip field
#

tera?

solid frigate
#

fire

strange fjord
#

Fire

tulip field
#

tera fire popular these days

molten oasis
#

Fire

molten oasis
#

But yea it’s nice to boost wake’s coverage move

#

Where did everyone go

solid frigate
#

now am here

upbeat quail
#

Groudon has been a blast to use on Reg G

solid frigate
#

i need to find a way to build my team more better to fight against Physical Attackers

upbeat quail
#

What’s your team?

solid frigate
upbeat quail
#

Ohh that team?

solid frigate
#

yeah

#

the terapagos team that has neutral MU against Groudon(Kinda)

upbeat quail
#

Honestly your team has a lot of options to stop physical attackers with Incin and Screens from grimm

molten oasis
upbeat quail
#

Something with breaking swipe might do some good

solid frigate
molten oasis
#

how are you struggling with physical attackers

solid frigate
#

like i never really throw incin cuz i fear it would be too passive

molten oasis
#

Well, bring it more

solid frigate
#

but Tornadus is Optional?

molten oasis
#

This made me laugh

It’s a slow bulky setup team I dunno if needs tailwind

#

Also if never seen that site before but I apreciate that it has all the sprites

Unlike another site I know

I swear I would literally add the sprites to pokepaste myself if they let me

And showed me how to upload the literal pngs

You read it right
Would you
I would
I'd hug an Ash Baby exclusively from China No. 3 Shrek edition

#

I should figure out how to contact them and see if they would let me volunteer

I’m tired of my pokepaste not having ogerpon png

it was supposed to be ironiclly funny 😫

and cringey

#

rawr :3

molten oasis
#

I might

torn parrot
#

i made a version without the text and kept the image thing

molten oasis
#

I might cut the break short

#

I’ve been itching to play all day it’s driving me nuts

#

I shouldn’t

torn parrot
#

play for fun

molten oasis
#

But I really want to lmao

torn parrot
#

and dont play with any expectations in mind

molten oasis
#

I can’t really “play for fun” cuz I just get competitive with anything I do

torn parrot
#

i see i see

molten oasis
#

That’s remotely competitive

torn parrot
#

then do small goals

#

👍 👍

bold geode
molten oasis
#

Cuz I’m supposed to be on a break

#

Cuz I can’t exactly control my mental state very well

torn parrot
#

you just gotta figure out whats making you feel stressed and try to do the opposite of it

molten oasis
#

But I also need to build better habits

torn parrot
#

yeah

molten oasis
#

Like

#

If I go on enough of a losing streak take a walk or smth

#

Ie not rage in the chat as i immediately lash out the instant my teams are questioned

#

Which is (I think) why tofu told me to take a break

torn parrot
#

ye probably
could try to change your mindset a bit
take breaks like you said
could change your thought process from like "i want to reach this number" to like "what did i learn from this game"

molten oasis
#

I don’t even necessarily care that much about my elo

#

It’s more like, I hate losing consecutively without knowing what I did wrong

#

Or if it’s the teams fault (being underprepared)

tulip field
#

do you feel like youre plateauing?

molten oasis
#

Uh, uhm

#

I didn’t think about that

tulip field
#

can also be really frustrating

torn parrot
#

that could also be it

molten oasis
#

I don’t even know the real reason why I get upset fuck

tulip field
#

not that it would be impossible to get better, but the feeling like you're just not

#

you're stuck

molten oasis
#

It is a new format, and not knowing what I’m supposed to do into things does start to cause frustration

torn parrot
#

yeah everybody gets that new format anxiety where they just dont get it until they find a team that clicks

The Wolfe match was crazy

i got my 3rd loss from the guy wolfey fought round 1

molten oasis

With Niels

#

Crazy game

marble coral
#

That was Neil’s regional if he just surging striked one more time instead of CC

tulip field
molten oasis
#

Anyway yea idk how to deal with the rage issues too well so I think I’ll have to learn that

#

How to deal with it

molten oasis
tulip field
#

i just figure that if it's not something permanent or something that makes me wanna cry there's no point getting upset over it

marble coral
tulip field
molten oasis
#

At least you didn’t tell me that during any rage fits lmao

marble coral
tulip field
#

could've been an over/under rng

molten oasis
#

No about the players

marble coral
#

Ohhhh yeah

molten oasis
#

He should have won but he also got fairly lucky with sleep turns, clicking surging would have won him the match

#

Both t2 wake ups

marble coral
#

Not fairly lucky very lucky 2 t2 wake ups back to back is insane luck in that situation

molten oasis
#

I think

#

Yea

tulip field
#

best way for it to end

molten oasis
#

Think he underestimated the damaged of surging

tulip field
#

with suspense getting broken

molten oasis
#

But like, he was prob nervous

marble coral
#

Unlike me who was paralyzed or flinched 6 turns in a row in r2 :)))

molten oasis
#

As that was his first time in finals

molten oasis
#

Wtf did you fight

Of course it happened in the game I didn’t bring cress so the para wouldn’t matter 🙂

molten oasis
#

Oof

#

Did you take the set?

marble coral
#

No that was g3

molten oasis
#

That’s even worse

marble coral
#

Lmfao you’re telling me bud

molten oasis
#

If it was like g1, whatever

#

But like, that being how you lose is brutal

marble coral
#

Very winnable match up but rng said “hey I’m going to fuck you over now” it’s okay I had a super fun weekend

molten oasis
#

Yea

#

I’m considering going to NAIC but it’s proving difficult cuz of financing

#

and also registering could mash with work which would suck

marble coral
molten oasis
#

Gonna bring Zac if I do

assuming testing goes well

The flight is the biggest roadblock

That shits expensive

Incin sucks for it lol

Well anyway I’m gonna probably get some homework done and then maybe play on the way home
