I've never played Ranked Battles before, is it always like this? Is this just an SV thing?
This legit feels like gambling.
It doesn't feel the same way when I win or loose at other games.
Competitive Pokemon feels like the entire battle is decided before it even starts and after it dose it's just coin flips like who wins a Speed tie.
I'm getting no satisfaction from this but I feel compelled to continue playing as if I'll pick the right cup in the shell game and win big eventually. Gambler's Fallacy type thinking that I don't get with PvP in other games.
Is this what they mean when they say competitive is a meme?
Is anyone else struggling with those last three Singles battles?
