>>54493538Starting to think that ice as a type doesn't really need any buffs and it's as good as it is, and that's coming from someone who supported an extra resistance or two.
It's a very volatile type that can snowball out of control very easily the moment it can actually stay in more than a couple of turns. Offensively there was never a generation where it was bad and now defensively it's no joke with Aurora Veil+Snow def buff. Triple def is just absurd, who cares about weaknesses when you have higher bulk than Lugia/Giratina/Zygarde-C?
GF made it clear it's a type that doesn't rely on the resistance chart to be successful, making it more unique and interesting to play. They finally succeeded in making it on par with the very best types. /vp/ would do better not to screw around it whenever Snow is in play, it's an entirely different beast.
