>>23474397The average Smogon ruleset team is completely unprepared to deal with "uncompetitive" strategies such as evasion, BP chains and SwagPlay.
Every time they get suspected on Smogon, the main argument against them is "this strategy forces you to run Perish Song/Haze/Own Tempo/Psych Up or some other gimmick". Well, the standard Smogn team doesn't run these moves so JPs running these strats steamroll them.
It's like saying that you refuse to run Rapid Spin/Defog because you think SR is OP/uncompetitive and should not be used. Then you run into an hazard-heavy stall team and you get fucked because you thought your rules where their rules.
