Which Mega will win? Will it be ZardY again? Or an underrated pick will rise? This is the last chance before everything changes on the 17th of June to dethrone the most nepo of shillmons. Marco Silva is already on the brink of elimination, while Wolfe is thriving, but never give anything for granted in this game. Let’s see how it goes on Day 1!
>>59356167Those streamchats are unwatchable with those Wolfe cultists spamming if their leader is there
>>59356180Turn off the chat?
Lopunny spotted?????
>>59356192Sableye too.
this game is pretty nuts

here's your chinese wife
Justin Tang vs chink tranny
>spics complaining that the sheets werent translated to spic spanisheven if spic spanish uses other words for the same moves, the meaning is the fucking same, do they have enough braincells?? i can get complaints from asians when they have to read english items out of nowhere, but isnt the case for spic spanish
>>59356319That's a man in a dress
oh wait this is the Ceruledge tranny, he performed well at Indianapolis as well. I like the team it’s pretty scary
Psyshock is there for ZardY and Floette I guess, but I’d say is generally worse against the majority of mons in this meta
Can something happen
>>59356319>going to new orleans in full zestmode sheer bravery
Justing honestly lacked the tools to beat it but idk why he didn't try to cycle intimidate like he did in g2
>>59356329How do team sheets work? Are they printed out before every match in a player's native language? >Japanese player plays Italian player >After pairings are announced, the Japanese player receives the Italian player's team sheet in Japanese and vice versa
your 7-0 gamers
>>59356387too bad Wolfe ditched Steelix for lame zardy
>>593563879 swiss rounds today?
>>59356386for what i saw, they get a list of the team with every language, the issue is that korean and china and other asian languages dont get the items or nature translated apparently
>>59356403That fucking sucks for Asian players
worlds invites are set after naic, right?
>>59356415yeah it sucks, which is why i feel like latin american are fucking snowflakes''omg why its this move called danza espada instead of danza de espada NOOOOOO I CANT READ IT, I DONT KNOW WHAT IT MEANS'' most of the moves are pretty much the same with some moves naming being different but the meaning is the same
>>59356415funny that TPCI is trolling Japan's competitors
sean
>>59356433yup
>>59356319No wonder he wears the mask.
retard aaron zheng watching replays when the tournament is still streaming. made me think it's over for the day
>>59356633its pride month chud. he does what he wants
>>59356646what do you mean
>>59356974Oh yeah, team data is finally up.https://www.pokedata.ovh/standingsVGC/0000190/masters/
>>59357006wtf Wolfe brought Pex and Hydreigon kekthe best performing Japanese player on the other hand has the most META team as it gets. I thought they had some variation compared to western meta but it doesn't seem like it
>>59357398The standard Zard Y team got 5/8 top spots in Jap Nationals.The Europeans did well to stop Zard at Turin.
>>59357398A lot of the Japanese players seem to bring insane tech moves, so while it might be meta, their teams usually have some tricks.
Day 2 stream started. Yapping phase still but at least they got to VGChttps://www.youtube.com/live/aR1lTe328yQ?is=YaSAHDEnRtZ6voxs
I LOVE COCK
>>59357616That's a by-product of their schizophrenic cts bo1 phase during Japan Nationals.It's not like Europe or US isn't creative, we just don't have a phase where we can gimmick cheese our unsuspecting opponents.
Everyone's favourite eceleb is playing
>>59357825Is it /ourguy/ Verlisify?
>>59357831Close enough with how obsessed he is with Wolfe
>>59357825He's the only one I recognize so I'm kinda cheering for him by default.
>>59357843Cybertron's brother (I don't think he goes by babytron anymore) looks like he made day 2, along with /vp/'s favorite tranny.
get flinched
>>59357859Toxapex is still in an amazing spot
>>59357825I pray he loses
>>59357846Don't forget about Trista
>>59357867Your prayers were answered
Look, I know the presenters don't know the calcs, but there is nothing surviving a 200BP stab + adp
>>59357873Thank You Based God
I don't want the standard Zard/Floette team to win.
The best Pokemon player wolfe glick once again in dominant form. There is only ONE wolf in the pokemon community.>>59357831Verlisfy is a shoot retard whose opinion does matter until he steps in the ring with Shofu. Everything he says is completely invalid until such time.
>>59357876Toxapex has 152 defense to be fair. If Toxapex had max defense investment he would tank it every single time
>B-But le heckin' low powerlevel metas are le good for le variety!

>>59357901They actually have a united community unlike the burger secretive circlejerk.
>>59357904I wish I were Italian so much
I thought Wolfe was good???
>>59357904I think there are two big italian teams. That Lycanroc team comes from the weaker one. The strong team is the one with Silva, Camporesi, Ceribelli, etc...
>double protectKEK
Skill based game.
Fuck Basculegion lmao
enter CHADXAPEX
I hope the Italians rape the Chinese tranny.
This game is so shit but I will admit my heart rate did go up
world champ dif lmao
I always pop for 2x protect. Fuck wolf though.
>>59357924but they're both champs
>Wolfe is out here battling the most meta team piloted by a Champ and you're still shitting on himAt some point you should just admit you're a verlisinigger furfaggot.
>>59357929Hope he sees this bro.
>>59357920Is si a man or woman? I am always curious about her identity.
Game 1 decided by damage rollGame 2 decided by double protectLet's see if Wolfe can actually not get outplayed in Game 3 for once
>>59357933Always a man in a dress when it comes to high level competitive games
when does the fighting start
>>59357933Do you not have eyes?
>>59357938They should decide the winner by a fight on stageI bet Wolfe could ohko the nip
>>59357936This
>>59357940Xir always wears a mask.I wasn't absolutely certain until it spoke.
>>59357945Again, do you not have eyes?You haven't seen his neck? His arms? His legs? His fuckawful twitter amazon femboy "fashion"?Even with the mask it's obvious as fuck the visible upper half is a man's face upper half.
>>59357949I'm not sure but it looks like he's also wearing a wig
Does my boy Charizard X get any shine at these tournaments?t. casual viever
No protect on Charizard?
What's Wolfe thinking
>>59357953Nope. Y mogs. X is not very good in doubles.X is good in singles though.
>>59357954 (me)oh I'm retarded, Whimsicott would encore you the turn after. Still...
Wolfesisters...
>>59357957too bad but I can see why. Those sun-boosted heatwaves are deadly.
Wolfe choked that one super hard Welp one more Zard/Floette slop team in top cut
Gg Wolfe tried to bring a unique team but didn't pay off against the meta 6
>Wolfe losing in day 2 after being undefeated in day 1The chokening begins.>>59357962More or less.Weather setters are very valuable and has a very strong weather boosted spread move. Taylor made for doubles.Be proud, you can read. Even if you say you're a casual that you managed to realize something like this, basic as it is, on your own, makes you smarter than 99% of people.
wolfeglazers crying>meta slave wins againas if wolfe's team isn't built to take on the meta
>>59357966>every year after 2016 in a nutshell
>>59357964Yeah, Idk why he switched out hydreigon, he could've protected zard and draco meteor into chomp, right?
>>59357972Last year worlds was the funniest.Wolfesissies trying to cope about how he lost when the same team he brought was the one that won the whole thing.
>contrarians hate wolfe just because
>>59357970>H-He only lost because it's a souless meta thingSo this is your goat? Someone who cannot deal with the meta? That's a gigayikes.
wolfe should quit vgc and become a pro heads or tails player, that's more in his wheel house
>>59357977so in a way he did win :)))his team
>>59357983I thought he did quit irl tourneys because too much sex
>>59357980Hope he sees this bro. Maybe he'll give you a shotout on his latest video for defending his honor on 4chins.>>59357984That was exactly their cope lmao.How this was technically a win for Wolfe.
>wolfe winsholy shit he's the GOAT!!! he's so skilled using these niche anti-meta pokemon!>wolfe losesTHIS is your world champ? guess the meta wins after all, he's washed and should quitthe duality of /vp/
>>593579874chan hates anything popular more news at 11
>>59357870Oh shit, Trista is there? Nice. Haven't heard of that girl in a gorillion years.>7-3Noooooo...Cool team though.
>>59357994>Perish Song without trapIs that just to cheese the endgame?
>>59357975Yes but he feared Moonblast from Whims onto Hydra. That's why I thought he should've double attacked so at least 1 would hit>no tailwind scenario>hydra picks off chomp>whism kills hydra>zard kills whims>tailwind scenario>chomp slides on zard and kills it>hydra kills chomp (if no flinch)This doesn't account for switch outs which Wolfe might've considered. Like in first scenario, if Chomp gets switched into Basc then you get 0 kills and hydra dies. But even then you have Pex in the back to mitigate a late game chomp. Idk. There was another really weird turn before
>>59357996It puts pressure on you and forces switches.
>>59357996perish can also force unwanted swaps if you pilot it well like >>59358001 says, imagine forcing a swap into your opponents threat in the back and having a move ready to kill it
>>59357949>amazon femboy "fashion"For the record, he bought those dresses on Taobao, the Aliexpress in China. not amazon.
>>59357929any team that has incin deserves to losealso wouldnt mamo be better since its fine against gambit and garchomp and doesnt get one shot by fairies
>>59357949Asians all look the same, male female, nationalities. I cannot tell them apart.
>>59358019I thought about Mamo afterwards and why he didn't bring it.It's obviously good into the opponent, but maybe wolfe believed a moonblast would just KO it.
Don't forget about the side stream for when the mainstream takes forever between rounds.https://www.youtube.com/live/FP4kqTcxvlI
>>59358014I'll be honest, I hadn't seen yesterday's stream so I had no idea what he was wearing. I'd just assumed he was wearing the same awful shit as ever. Dude's not even wearing the mask. Weird.Good on him though. He's actually discovering fashion. A slight improvement. Hope he keeps it up.
Wolfe vs Camporesi next round damn
>>59357994was she that girl who /vp/ used to lust for in the VGC threads? She should be getting close to 40 now and probably a stinky femcel.
>>59357998I guess he thought it'd be the no tailwind scenario that turn and was afraid that on the next turn whims will set up tailwind and then basc destroys his team, so he wanted to conserve hydreigon for that.
Can someone smarter than me tell me why there's so many teams with both Politoed and Froslass? Shouldn't having two weathers be counterproductive?
>>59358032>She should be getting close to 40 now and probably a stinky femcel.Anon, stop, I can only get erect so much.
>>59358030Wolfe already won
>>59358036If you're only bringing 4 mons in a team, you can build several teams/modes based on the match up
>>59358036They have Arch too, it was a Jap meme team.
Isn't Pio Pero like 7ft tall?I root for giants.
>1st game decided by a random freezeSkill based game
Meanwhile Marco is 9-2 after starting 1-2
>>59358056The strongest jeet.
I would have made the wrong call there for sure.Swapping Zard in for Chomp was the best option, but you'd have to be clairvoyant.
>just rock slide bro
>commentator saying kingambit has black glasses boosted sucker punch>after seeing it eat chople berrythe absolute state of commentary

Pio Pero is Christmaxxing, he'll win.
i dont like this fransesco guyhe pops off over flinches
Skill Slide strikes again
That tradcath meds are ENSLAVING every chink invader of the west.
>>59358081You don't do that?
>>59358086no? the fuck, get a little tact.thats a content nod at best.
HOLY FLINCH FIESTA
>>59358081>>59358088You're not a competitor and you have 0 points this year.
This is just like Gen 3 OU...
PERFECT

>>59358065They managed to combine the two biggest retards on the casting staff for this match>>59358088Fatherless opinion
covert cloak cannot come soon enough
They said Aero was washed, they said Whims was the truth.Lies I say, my pink Aero disagrees.
>>59358093>>59358099im a 4 time world champion you little MICE
>"Zard slop" mentioned
>>59358108tfw 1 week no shg
I'll never cease to be amazed at how after years and years and years, TPCi VGC streams are as slower than Torkoal and 90% dead time and they're unable to show more than one math per round.Japan Nats last week showed 16 matches on day 1 while Turin only showed 8.I will never be able to get over how incompetent they are.
Wolfe vs Alex who is the Spanish Wolfe basically
>>59358132there's even a second stream but will they cut to it? nooo
>>59358132Day 1 Jap Nats was bo1.Technically you get 2 or 3 matches x 8.
>>59358136The matches are still all running at the same time. The logistics don't change at all. Just cut over to a currently still going match in the meanwhile. Just fucking >>59358134 do this.
It do be like that Mr. Scott
WTF IS THAT?!!!
tranny fatigue
Don't be mean to her /vp/, she's passionate for the game
jacinthe bros,,,
First you enslave them, then you put them in ghettos and now you make em zesty.Black Americans have had it rough...
>he chose Lillie as his nameAlolatroons not beating the allegations
Is Len tall or Rosemary small
ITALY SAVE US FROM ALL THE AMERICAN TRANNIES
>Wolfe againMan, I don't even dislike the guy but this kind of stuff is annoying. There's more players out there. It's shit like this I understand why people call him a industry plant.
>>59358167Blame the community for being ugly, trans, and/or unmarketable.
>turn on stream>gay black tranny>turn off stream
>>59358174This. He's presentable, charismatic and not ESL. That puts him ahead of 99% of the community.
>>59358174Have you seen everyone else? They're all relatively unpresentable.
>>59356192>Mega KickOMG just bring back Return please
ANOTHER DOUBLE PROTECT WIN
BASED PEX
> Triple ProtectWhat skill
I can just hear verlis seething
WE'RE SO BACK WOLFESISTERS!
Wolfe may be goated
>>59358198Only the amerimutts, euro tournaments are mostly normal people + moggers
Surely the next streamed match is Silva vs Tang
>>59358287Good call.
>>59358167Like mostly everyone else has said, he's good marketing for the pokemon company. They don't really have any other voice to amplify. Most influencers are fags, fat, autistic asians, and ESLs. They are desperate for other voices. they rolled out the red carpet for Joey, even calling him by his youtube handle.
>>59358322Joey stuck around too, has entered more and puts out a lot of VGC contenr these days.
wtf is up with these protects?
Both finalists from last year NAIC are in top cut
Marco it's time to shave it off buddy.
1-2 to 11-2 is crazy
>>59358322They'd have more names if they actually put in even a quarter of an effort into shilling other names as they do with Wolfey.Putting all their eggs in one basket is never a good idea in the long-term.
im slowly getting back into pokemon and the competitive and im watching this and every fucking team is a carbon copy of each other except a couple, are these the only worth using pokemons? i thought competitive mons was about move effiency and synergy, type advantage-synergy, broken abilities and good stats, is the champion roster so fucking bad that everyone is forced to use the same 6 pokemons with maybe 1 or 2 variations?
>>59358436>I'm slowly getting back into competitive>Now listen to me whine about basic things that every competitive game suffers aboutWhy are you lying in a taiwanese basket weaving forum about magical creatures coaching?
>>59358440i played some competitive during gen 4, but thats it, and all i did at that point was copying teams without using my brain cuz i was pretty young at that moment
Another total MED victory over the gook femboys
>>59358445Okay, that's more fair.But in short, it's a mixture of both, meta being meta and Champions selection being utterly shit no matter how much le low powerlevel trannies try to gaslight you about it.Don't worry though, even if you allow all mons, it would be the same, because meta is meta at the end of the day and this being a competitive game and these being tournaments with money on the line, people will wanna win yes or yes.
>>59356187You must be one of them
i dont get why 80% of these people dont try a lil bit to look better, marco should just shave his head, man looks like an indian begger
>>59358471>allow all mons>primals, megaquaza and arceus everywhere every gameWow fun
>>59358478You have to remember that at the end of the day VGC is just another branch of the shilling machine and therefore they don't give a shit about making a genuinely healthy meta. It's why right now the meta is Megas, because we're in the Mega shilling period of the marketing cycle.Try to look into things like Draft Leagues, anon. If you want "variety" then, as far as VGC goes, that's the place to go.
>>59358478totally a problem unique to pokemon, let's complain about it forever
>>59358477He would look worse with shaved head, he should do fin+minox or a hair transplant if that doesn't work. Shaving is cope and unnecessary boomer/basedlennial tech
Arceus would be a good addition
>>59358475I just never look at the yt chat because it's invariably shit and there's nothing that can be done, you fucking retard.
>>59358489Unironically would.Problem is that TPC is retarded and always dumps her in retarded anything goes formats where Mythicals can never shine because why the fuck bother when I can run primals, horses and dons as my entire team instead? Yes, I know this is a shit team but it's hyperbole you fags.
>>59358499>her
>>59358502>>59358503Canonically turned into a human woman and got dicked by human cock and gave birth.Yes. Her. Cope and seethe.
>>59358504I must have missed the game with the human Arceus sex scene
>>59358504sure thing troon
I am tired of seeing this fucking fish fuck I hope to turn it into fillets
eric vs don is pretty interesting
>>59358478Legendaries can be fun in certain Restricted formats, when you can only really use one and have to build the rest of your team around it. But double primal spam + Mega-Ray was cancer.
Verlis little fox fears Shofu.
>>59358513It has cool lore though
>>59358522The only bad restricted formats were in 16 and 19. Reg I was pretty awesome, gave me a lot of room to make something work.
>>59358538>>59358538>Reg I was pretty awesomeLying on the internet is bad, anon.
>>59358496Exactly what a cultist would say
>>59358538>Reg I was pretty awesomeIt was absolute garbage

>>59358595>You don't like eating shit like me?>Heh, I bet you like slurping diarrhea insteadNot the gotcha you thought it was.
>>59358599You didn't play either so why would I value your opinion?

>>59358717It's time for sneaky pebbles
>>59358715I will never understand how the retards at GF decided to try to replace them with meme dances ripped off from YW rather than continuing expanding the concept.Ohmori and his consequences have been a disaster for this franchise.

>>59358714>top 8>7 charizards>6 kingambitsjfc>>59358715yeah i agree, mega evos are super cool, and i prefer it over dynamax and tera, tera is by far the worst looking gimmick honestly, even if ironically, its the best gimmick in term of competitive
>>59358714>tfw Zard Y may finally have an International Tournament W
>>59358715for campaignshitters maybe
>>59358727Kingambit most of the time shows up and dies, achieving nothing in the process.
Toxapex killing Farigiraf full HP + Sitrus Berry with toxic + proctec and double protec is fucked.
>>59358724They are deathly afraid of YW for some reason instead of understanding it was a fad and would die like everything level 5 does, so they wanted to replicate it.
>>59358727Agreed, tera looks horrible, but was the most sound. The only critique I have is that it did change how you play the game pretty heavily where you would try to force your opponent to tera just to remove that variable.Megas just play like a single restricted format, straightforward pokemon. The double mega teams though did reintroduce variability though. Lack of good items made it possible.
>>59358724But megas stuck around to this day so what's your point?
>>59358746That you seeming cannot read, ESL-kun.
I've never watched vgc beforeWhat's the most soulless metaslave region so I can shitpost about them?
>>59358754Italy
>>59358754Japan's reps are both running THE team.Federico Camporesi is too.
>>59358745if only it was something cool instead of just an ugly stupid looking hat...
>>59358754Japan
>>59358759Even just looking crystallized and making the type change a UI element would have been preferable.
>>59358714Thanks
Tera was ass mechanically too and no one will convince me otherwise.I only truly realized how nice it was to not have that piece of shit running around anymore when I realized how fucking good it felt to know that all my Close Combats would kill Kimgambit yes or yes no matter what.

>>59359043I came here for this post
What the fuck is Mamoswine even for. He never brought it in a streamed game
glick privilege
>rock slide missTHAT'S THE WORLD CHAMP DIFF
>no accelrockI guess it wouldn't have saved the game desu, even if Charizard died Hydregion was faster, plus Incin in the back.
>>59359135You were saying?
>>59359152This was in response to game 1 retard
Dafaq is Dion doing
zardo is safu
>ice is a bad ty-ACK!!!!
>>59359187I apologize ice-chads!
>>59359187Just hit the double 70% bro
Actual 50/50 RNG
>*wins the speed tie twice in a row*
LMAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
WOLFE CHADS STAY WINNING!!!!
>Barely wins thanks to a speed tieTHAT'S MY GOAT
Why did he not Jet the Sneasler? Surely it would've killed even in the Sun.
Wolfe ICK
Close one.
>wolfe loses to speed tiebeautiful rng meta
WORLD CHAMP DIFFERENCE
you can't even deny the rigging allegations atp
Wolfe and Shoma have plot armor for a sovful oldfag finals
what do you even say to losing to a speed tie
not even ash has this much plot armor
That was so intense
>>59359217nvm im fucking retarded, he won LMAO. still rng meta
>>59359219>>59359227
cybertrong, aaron, and james evans all doing the "aww he's such a nice guy" to marcus ToT ToT
>>59359236wolfes being a good sport right now too and hyping him up, its nice to see
>>59359209to be fair he lost every single sneasler speed tie in the set before that
>>59359251Some speed ties are more important than others
>even commentators are noticing lack of mamoswinewhat does it even do
>>59359213He was reading protect
>>59359263For other matchups that we haven't seen him play against, like probably sand and TR
>>59359261world champ difference blah blahluck overall was pretty balanced for both sides, marcus went for the 50/50 as his only out and wolfe just won the die roll at the right time
Wolfe is unbeatable due to factors outside of human control. Who else think it??
Is Smeargle a beagle?
>>59359267I'll have to rewatch but I felt like he didn't actually cover Protect properly, but maybe I was too laserfocused on what my own play would've been.
It's a shame that the regulation is about to change. Lycanrock got top 8 in two tournaments in a row, I wanted to see if it was going to stick or if it was just another "counter of the week"
There's a chance Garchomp and Floette are speed tied too here
Nooooooo Floette missed
These games ARE rigged
>The Lord wants Pio to win
His fault. He should have dazzling gleam not moonblast.
holy fucking throw why didnt he dazzling??>>59359538this
>>59359535God loves Italians
>>59359535He was obviously lucky, but Shoma made a terrible mistake in a crucial moment
>soulless metaslop gets to the finals
ARCEUS SMILES UPON THEE
>>59359535if wolfe makes finals pio has pretty much won already, no?
>>59359599Surely Mamoswine will be do something against Aereodactyl
>>59358871Pretty much. He cries about wolfe for genning mons (something every pro player does lol) but the real reason he is salty is from wolfe having a much bigger yt channel than him.
What's Wolfe's hairstyle called
>>59359625World Chop Difference
>>59359625The hairlinehider
>>59359612> the real reason he is salty is from wolfe having a much bigger yt channel than himthey fucked and wolfe didn't hit him up again
>>59359625Slick Glick
MAMOSWINE
>>59359645OH SHIT
He didn't do shit...
>>59359652It fucking flinched and died, it still did NOTHING
>>59359652that crit flinch. absolutely shat on
Does his Mamo seriously not have ice shard? Wtf was that?
>>59359665It does
le epic flinches
le skill slide gameplay
>flinch>flinchMAKE IT STOP
If Eric wins here, the final is going to be a M-Aereo vs M-Areo rock slide flinch fiesta
>>59359668Then why the fuck didn't he click it vs the aero???
>>59359679I think he was hoping for a OHKO, maybe thinking Gambit with Defiant + Rock Slide would kill Mamo before it could take down the Aero
>just click rock slideHere's your meta bro
>Eric was scared of Mamoswine so he brought Zard instead of Aereodactyl
>>59359690mamo jobbing actually caused mental damage
MAMO CRIT MAMO CRIT
JOBBERswine
>misswew
skill based game holy shit
this is one of those sets that wants to make you throw your switch against the wall
Finally Wolfe punished the sucker punch spam
>>59359599Correct, the New Covenant requires Christ.
Why does this bitch talk like an anime character
Lost to rough skin
Every match comes down to this fucking pex
W O L F E YASHED
JOBOSWINE
Wolfe has now lost 2 tournaments from trying to bring shitmons
old and busted
Can't win 'em all.
>>59359738Imagine the youtube views>I PLACED TOP 4 WITH DOGSHIT
>>59359738Still guaranteed qualified for Worlds though with Mamoswine so that's something
>>59359739That would be Cybertron "out on day 1 of every Regional he goes to now" VGC.
His luck had to run out eventually, but why he brought Mamo into a Zard team is a mystery
>beating the troon and Wolfewtf I love Spain now
>>59359748Cybertron is NOT relevant in the grand year of 2026
>>59359751For Aero and Kinggambit.
>>59359751Eric basically got handed a best of one on a silver platter with that game1 hax
Wolfey had an insane plot armor to even get that high in the first place. Congrats Eric.
>>59359738Last game vs Eric had a huge OHKO miss on Gambit and Mamo kinda did its job. some unlucky rolls as well, with the rough skin chip too
>>59359752EL ESPANA
>>59359754>>59359748Cybertron is so fucking washed it's unreal. He hasn't been vaguely relevant since 2017
The weaker the team you have, the more rng will determine your success, both for wins and for losses. It also makes you more reliant on correct reads since you’ll have fewer turns where there’s a 100% good move.
Placing 2nd at Indianapolis and 3rd-4th here shows insane consistency from Wolfe wtf
>>59359794Now imagine if he used basc/gambit/sneasler/zard/aero/whimsi like everyone and their mother
>>59359794He's insanely good but the dick sucking is awful
>>59359798he wouldn't be nearly as entertaining to watch, and would probably not perform much better. Niche picks usually carry Day 1 by filtering everyone that cannot think outside the box of his own prep against meta teams, and in Day 2 when there are stronger guys you honestly "play the player" and matchup disparity can be mitigated. of course you need complete mastery of your team and the roles of the niche mons, alongside excellent mets knowledge, decision making and instincts to make it work. variance impacts the game much more than team choice in current meta and at such high levels
>>59359794This.
Similar teams in the finals. At least the fucking flower is not winning another tourny
>>59359836instead you get to watch the flinch lottery, dunno how that's any better
>Missed Wolfe losing liveFUCK>>59359794When you parade yourself as the GOAT, and your fanbase is doing it ten times as hard, anything but 1st place is a disappointment.Wolfe's ironically enough the biggest victim of his own success.>>59359738And he'll keep losing them.Dude's obsessed with having his own "Pachirisu" moment.If he actually locked in he'd have won Worlds at least one more time already. But no, he wants to have his cake and eat it too.Unironically just plain greediness. Fitting, I suppose.
Alex lost the 50/50 Pex protecEric won the 50/50 Pex protecREVENGE SERVED
>>59359845He gets to make videos out of all of these and make more money than any non-eceleb winner
>>59359844It will be a disaster
>>59359846It honestly kinda feel good to see his luck finally running out. He luckshat hard on every on-stream match
>>59359845Wolfe is the greatest of all time, but Pokemon is a game with enough RNG the greatest doesn't always win. The fact he consistently top cuts is evidence of just how good he is thought.
>>59359851That just kinds of adds to the point.
>>59359855You didn't watch the semis against Eric, did you? Wolfe got absolutely fucked by RNG in Game 1
>>59359856I thought the goat was Ray Rizzler
>>59359861Not even in the top five anymore. He won three tournaments and at a time when there was weak competition. Plenty of players have 4+ wins at this point.
>>59359861He is. Don't let any coping Wolfesissy tell you otherwise.
>spaniard vs italian in the finals burgerbros, we suck
>>59359860Exactly so.Seeing someone get fucked by hax when you saw them fucking over people by hax always feels good.Karma's a bitch.
>>59359866But it was Wolfe himself who made a documentary about him
>>59359861I'm no wolfsister, but>only winning during the wild west>basically zero longevityI could never consider him the goat. I think the first nigga to win Worlds twice (other than him) immediately becomes the goat (especially if they also have other tournament wins)
>>59359873Well, he obviously is not gonna make a documentary about himself jerking his own dick. There's levels to things. There's a big difference between that and just putting it on his bio.
>>59359879No he did actually make a documentary jerking himself off too
>>59359884Really? Yikes.
>>59359886https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1kGqRukJ98 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDGXmfVM0ic
>>59359861He had his prime when Worlds was comparable to a current local level Tournament with shit attendance so he's hardly in contention due to real lack of resistance
>>59359888I knew of the Ray one but had no idea about the other one. Really big gigayikes.
>>59359895And its 45 minutes longer than the Ray one as a cherry on top
>>59359890>>59359864>MUH PLUMBERSThe absolute state of Wolfekeks.
>>59359845>Unironically just plain greediness. Fitting, I suppose.Relax nigga is just an ex-champ tier making content™
>>59359899To play doubles' advocate, there's more to draw from for himself than Ray considering the difference in length of their careers.A lot of early VGC history from the Ray era has been lost to time too so that's even less material to work with.
>>59359888>making an hour long biotic about yourselfThe ego holy shit
>Aerodactyl is wa-ACKWho're we cheering for tomorrow? Pasta or Paella?
>>59359900Not a Wolfekek but you can't deny that current events are way more stacked. If you ONLY consider Worlds performance Michael Kelsch is probably the most consistant player with back to back to back Finals,Semi-Finals and Top 8 performances
>>59359900You can obsess over Wolfe all you want, I don't care. But Ray Rizzo is no goat lmao. Maybe he would be if he was still playing at high level right now, but he fucked off long ago
>>59359920Sure, but there's better ways to go about it rather than trying to put down others like that. It's not like there's a lack of things that could be extolled instead. Just rubs me the wrong way.
>>59359923>You can obsess over Wolfe all you wantBut enough about wolfesissies!
>>59359924Rizzo was indeed spearheading but the game has evolved so much since then
Wolfe is the goat and his goat is Rizzo therefore Rizzo is the goat of goat
>>59359861He's the Wayne Gretzky to Wolfe's Sidney Crosby. Definitely the GOAT of his time, arguably the GOAT of all time, but the game was very much different when he was dominating, even if his domination was more absolute.
>>59359949Good analogy :)
>tourists at it again talking about vgc like it's sportsyou will NEVER step foot in an event hall because you're all too fucking autistic/would get filtered by the entry fee. stop fanboying and treating these people like they're celebrities, get a job, pick up the game and start going to locals. do you have more than 5 play points? no? then i don't wanna hear it. i hope you all know that many players read these threads and laugh at all the ignorant ass shit you post. fucking retards
>>59359959I've been playing VGC and posting here longer than you, faggot. Imagine thinking you're hard on a dead imageboard for furries and pedophiles.
Honestly I wouldn't even consider Wolfe's Worlds win to be his biggest win either at this point. His SV Regional wins are arguably more impressive given the scale of those tournaments and who he faced in them. His EUIC win is the biggest of his career at this point. VGC has gotten really big over the last two gens. Regionals used to be events you could show up to the day of and sign up for free. Now you have to pay to enter and they sell out, online, in minutes. It's a good problem to have.
>>59359969post trainer club p!p screenshot or shut the fuck up, you're embarrassing yourself. if you're an actual oldfag and what you're reading doesn't make you angry then i don't know what to tell you, i'm sorry your social life is a disgrace or something
>>59359994I agree. I'd argue the EUIC win is a bigger accomplishment than 2016 wcs
>>59359959You know you can both participate in a game and also enjoy the spectacle of watching others, right?
>>59359995>what you're readingI admit I'm clueless at the game, what's the matter with the comments?
>>59360016Pokemon player ids are given out sequentially and started I think at 1 or at the very least a very small number. The lowest I've ever seen is a five digit. I have a six digit and I got mine in 2010. As of 2022 the numbers were up near 2.8M because two of my sons entered a Regional in the Juniors division and got those numbers. He is asking that anon to post his player id as a way to show off if he's an oldfag or not.
>>59359994>>59360013Disagree.Bloat is not good.Numbers sound good on paper but in practice it just means now there's more shitters filling up TPCi's pockets. Not all those entrants are of equal value. Worlds has value because it's the concentration of the best of the best of the year from, well, the whole world. It's where the level of competition of all the people who tried to compete is at its highest.I see where you guys are coming from but I simply disagree with it.
>>59360041Also, I really dislike the whole acting like if older tournaments have no value because "the competition was weaker/the tournaments weren't as big" and then you go look and it's the same fucking niggas competing and tryharding and top cutting all the fucking time back then that are still the same faggot names we see on every fucking tournament.Has there been new blood? Duh, by this same logic used to say all those old tournament >d-don't count then all these oldfags should have become old and busted and nope look at them still being the toppy tops.Can we stop acting like if everyone playing back then were shitters that didn't even know the type chart and that "True VGC™" only started with SV? Because c'mon.
>>59360041That definitely is an argument, at least for round one or two on day one, but I think the overall skill level of players, especially given that you have to pay $80 to enter, filters out most shitters. I have a friend who used to bring monotype teams to Regionals in older gens because he found them fun. He went to one Regional in the first year of SV and went 0-9. He came in second to last place, lower than people that had dropped because someone playing a game and losing is worse than just dropping. He doesn't go to events anymore. People like that used to show up in round 3, 4, or 5 of a Regional back in even Gen 7. These days, events are cutthroat. But, again, I can see your argument that Worlds being invite only versus other tournaments being open but self selected still makes any Worlds better. If tournaments continue to grow, however, and we start seeing 8 round day ones, 8 round day twos, and then 4 round top cuts I think at that point that scale wins out over the 6 rounds of swiss into a 4 round top cut that Wolfe won Worlds in.
>>59360022this is strangely accurate but i was also asking for play points, specifically from old season reports because as i'm sure you're aware, it would be very easy to tell by their count whether or not they have been playing at in person events for as long as they claim they have>>59360056>"the competition was weaker/the tournaments weren't as big" and then you go look and it's the same fucking niggas competing and tryharding and top cutting all the fucking time back then that are still the same faggot names we see on every fucking tournament.don't bother, they don't wanna hear it. none of this fits whatever headcanon their neet schizo brains came up with
>>59358478Good, then Sheninja can setup and sweep.
>>59359919say twitter trannies mad about rios so backing him ig
>>59360255They'd have to be mad about Pero's crucifix too.
>>59360282idk i dont know retarded euro drama beyond what i saw on my recommendedhttps://x.com/shirolamperouge/status/2065890711916925148https://x.com/LyshaVGC/status/2065953335195136265
>>59359861Gay Rizzo was winning when tours were free to enter and people showed up with imperfect IV Pokemon and ingame teams to play kek. He get exposed and vanished the second actual competition started showing up.
>>59360627You are worse at the game than he is faggot. His streak shows why he didn't just rely on luck other than for his first win
