incredibly good opinions from a smogon player coming through
>>46227359i generally agree that you shouldn't fall into the trap of "broken checking broken" to justify keeping a mon but it is genuinely pretty annoying if a mon you legit thought was balanced is banned and it results in a mon that wouldn't have been broken otherwise being too powerful.
>>46227460it's much more overcentralized in ubers than in OU and always has been. look at the usage rates for ubers compared to OU at any point to see what I mean
>>46227495OU is the primary tier based on usage and it sets the standard for all the lower tiers. Ubers is primarily a banlist and has no obligation to be balanced, until it got a playerbase and they started banning stuff from it in gen 6, defeats the purpose of it being a banlist in my eyes
>>46227771>>46228030if these people actually played OU they'd see how unbalanced it is currently, and how they waste time with vanity suspects. stop watching verlisify and think for yourselves
>>46228050that anon is correct. the players have no obligation to make battle spot fun or balanced to play. blame gamefreak for making an unbalanced game. but if the smogon player complains about cheap shit being allowed in battle spot that's on them, not on smogon as an institution, and if they want to complain at all, it should be towards gamefreak for their game not being balanced
>>46228066i think people should be allowed to complain about whatever they want, you don't have to play smogon, just make an effort to understand how it works
>>46228172you can think evasion or any other cheap thing is unfun to play against without being a smogonfag, that could just be your personal opinion. Again the player has no obligation to play against you if you use something they don't want to play against. If you want to get mad at people for instantly giving up blame them, or blame gamefreak for not making battle spot competitive enough
>>46228199no one is
