I think streaming the runs is a great idea, but I liked your old style of editing better. I felt like you were able to have more creative moments with editing when you didn’t have to implement stream clips. Do what works best for you, but just wanted to provide some feedback. Keep up the great work and can’t wait to watch some of your streams!

@fxbking8956 9 ай бұрын

I second this. I know it’s easier to just clip your stream and upload it here with a voice over; however, if I wanted to watch your stream then I’d watch it there. Your KZfaq personality is much more enjoyable than your streaming personality. I don’t have to hear you swearing and covering up every 30 seconds, etc. The vibes were much more mature and professional before.

@@tesladrew2608 85% and 90% are both just accurate enough to be worth picking up (pre-Gen 6 Fire Blast does have a higher expected BP than Flamethrower, unlike Thunder and Blizzard), but just inaccurate enough to miss at precisely the worst possible time. The real problem is that Megahorn comes far too late in the run to be worth it, especially with Heracross who has an actual movepool.

At this point I am assuming you have killed the Franchiselocke. I do not blame you. Gen 7-9 are extremely difficult to complete with no repeats as you pretty much used up all of your good options and the Gen 7-9 Pokemon are complete trash. LOLZ XD I'm surprised you have avoided cussing. If I tried to do a hardcore nuzlocke, I'd probably fail hard and cuss up a storm. I have dropped the F-bomb so many time while playing video games that I'm glad my nieces cannot hear me. :p EDIT: Nevermind. You do say the F-word a lot, but you censor it with Pikachu's cry. Xp

I think he said in a post somewhere that the franchiselocke isn’t cancelled, he’s just putting it off for a while because he’s dreading doing all four Alola games back to back, and I really can’t blame him because while I love Gen 7, the games hit you with so many tutorials and really drags on in the beginning before they really pick up.

You underestimate a lot of these bugs. Clearly you need to spend a little more time on Gen 1 Solo run KZfaq. Most of these bugs can handle the league, albeit with some luck, solo and with just the stat experience that a near minimum battle run would provide, and maybe abuse of the badge boost glitch. Still really fun to watch. I'd love to see this challenge made more hardcore. Maybe going infinite rare candy mode to remove wild encounter grinding and forcing minimum battles, to minimize your stat experience, and setting a boss -2 level cap. Also level cap for the league at the first member's level

Hot take, the modern Bug type is overlooked. While it's weak to some common types, it makes up for in Sweeping potential and entry hazards. Quiver Dance Volcarona (or if you're like me, Quiver Dance + Compound Eyes + Hurricane Vivillon), and Sticky Web Galvantula are some good examples of this.

2:50 RBY's display is also weird AF and yellow bar kicks in a little over 50% rather than at 50% like later on, so it's even more deceptive than you think. Y'know, just in case you wanted to rage a bit more. 8:00 Starmie will NEVER use Bubblebeam against a Grass-type, because the "advanced" AI package is set up to avoid NVE moves altogether, even if they would be the highest-damaging option. Also, you're playing Gen 1 with Bugs. Go ham on the Sleep Powder. We won't judge you.

@Chronoflation Жыл бұрын

I don't think Ninetails was faster. I think the sleep was given priority from the quick attack the turn it fell asleep. That Ninetails is slower than Blaine's Rapidash, so it's the only way your Scyther, especially with stat experience, should ever be slower than Ninetails. Your base speed is way above a Ninetails, I'd think even 0 dv should still have you be faster

Since he's playing in release order, that's all four Alola titles--infamous for extremely long unskippable cutscenes--back-to-back-to-back-to-back. These are also the most difficult main-series titles of the 3D era (especially USUM), so that's even more time spent in prep.
