I only ever have fun playing against a Sableye if im playing Greedent because even if you get stunned you can still shoot at it with bulletseed and destroy it but any other squishy pokemon like decidueye or espeon feels like a nightmare because they can kill you if they have a unite and you can't counter it because they get the first hit, unless you get lucky by throwing a random stun

I’ll be honest as some who rose up the ranks thx to sableye you have to use him really well as at the beginning you need to time your attacks so that the opponent doesn’t get the final hit which makes it difficult for a little while but having one less person on a lane can be bad but slowing down jungler can be huge

I hate the amount of cc they keep adding to the game, while making counterplay to said cc weaker. They keep on nerfing full heal and the pink emblems doesn't do a whole lot. To answer your question Jake, i really hate facing sableye. The constant jungle invades while unable to do anything is super frustrating. The fact that sableye can score a fat 30-40 points while someone is camping the goal, is just icing on the cake. Edit: I see i'm not the only one that feels the same way with the cc in the game and that gives me hope for unite to get better at some point. I feel like only defenders should have the hard cc, so they can either engage in combat with their team or peel for them. Having cc abilities on nearly every single pokemon is simply quite silly. With the amount of cc in the game, i feel like i barely PLAY the game.

It has the longest cooldowns so once you have used your invisible twice if you don't kill the enemy with your skills your dead as everything's on cooldown. Also it's hard for me to even get to level 12 by the end of the game.

I honestly dont think Sableye is "awful" or "unfun" to play with/against. It in fact brings a whole new dynamic to the match, like hoopa does. I like how it challenges the default way to play jungle. But it still is a rage inducing pokemon and needs to be balanced, as every other.

Solution options: 1. Remove fear. Replace it with nothing. The CC is the main issue. Removing fear will address the major problem. But its not on theme. 2. Increase cooldowns on everything. Make it so Sableye has to commit to its plan. If it messes up it is screwed. I'm talking like a 2 second increase on sneak, confuse ray, and even passive invisibility. 3. Reduce damage massively. I'm talking it will be impossible for it to 1v1. It will actually have to be "supporting" a carry to be useful. It will be such a big nerf steal/securing wild pokemon will be a problem for sableye. Any one of these I think will be fine. More than 1 would be overkill. But maybe it deserves overkill?

See, now I am presented with a dilemma: Yes, Sableye is very bad for the game, denies stacking, stuns forever, asks for your teammates to *not* hit the enemy. But on the other hand, he's so incredibly fun to use I wanna keep him forever. Even if it makes everyone else hate me, that just means they're going to waste resources on me instead of using them on the Ray fight or on deleting my carry. So it's a win win!

This is a very common role in these types of games. Assassins are usually meant to be annoyingly stealthy and able to one shot. It sounds like the other stuff like full heal needs balancing. People have always hated characters like Zed and Katarina both for being hella busted and impossible to play in League.

I love this pokemon and at the same time i hate it. It's frustratintng to play agaist the shadow sneak / confusion ray build, but I don't think the pick/ban thing would be good. Sure, it would solve the problem, but it would create another problem: nobody can play sableye beceuse it's aways banned, it would be basically as if everyone who bought sableye lost the 14000 coins they spent for nothing. A better solution would be nerfing this pokemon so that you can punish it for it's mistakes, like: -taking damage ends invisibility -nerf max hp to at least 7000 -shadow sneak and confusion ray get less benefits with stacking items -nerf the movement speed decrease in the fear (from 40% to 25% would be good) -confused enemies have incrasef movement speed and deal a lot more damage if they hit sableye (so you have to be more carefull to not confuse them when they are alone, or you will take a lot of damage and it wont be easy to escape if you mess up) -feint attack reveals ennemies while taking the over-time damage (to make the other build a little better) Please correct me if I made any English mistakes , it's not my native language.

Sableye should have the same treatment as the spy from TF2. When you're invisible and take damage you become visible for a moment. Not fully visible, but a translucent silhouette so it is still possible to get away after being caught, but if you're predictable you're punished for it and are very likely to die. Sableye could also have its invisibility break and become stunned if they take too much damage while cloaked, almost like getting guard broken in a fighting game? Would be fitting for a pokemon with so many ways to stun be concerned about getting stunned if they get caught out.

This reminds me of the Developer commentary for Halo 3, the designers made sure that every weapon was fun to fight with AND against. They didnt want you to be frustrated dying to a certain weapon, or game mechanic. Unite should learn from this philosophy, sableye may be fun to play, but it is very frustrating to play against. You may be able to secure a KO, but sableye comes out of invisibility and CCs you so their teammate can escape. The utility and effect sableye has in the game is way to impactful in a game, he instantly changes how a unite match goes, just from being in the game.

Sableye is so annoying to play against bc there’s really no way to stop it. Not unless, like you said, change your play style or build to specifically counter it. This really limits so much of your gameplay. and it’s so much easier to support your team, because it gives so much cc

My question is, how do you KO a thief? If someone is invading my jungle, I take a Baltoy and prepare to fight when I see them. But no one as far as I know sees Sableye until it's too late. He's already there. He's already everywhere. So, I definitely agree that Sableye needs to be more counterable. Here are two suggestions from me: Getting incapacitated breaks invisibility immediately. Sableye cannot score with invisibility, or for 1s after invisibility ends. The first means you can catch this thief. The second means Sableye would give opponents a moment to react if they're defending that goal. I hope my suggestions are helpful.

A rework could be nice. The invisibility is a bit too much, you can burn this guy, stun it, and it will stay invisible, I even Power Swap it and it still stays invisible, you can't even see the teather that links you to it so you still have to gess where it is.

is it really that bad though? Every time I play Sableye (and Sableye is my main) the opposing team simply four-mans the bot lane relentlessly, kills my lane partner over and over and prevents me from doing anything useful. If I leave lane to roam, they just keep pressuring the weakened lane, and if I try to defend the goals, I'm just a Sableye, focussed down instantly by AOEs the second I pop out of stealth. People also have this uncanny ability to instantly cast all their Unite moves without any reaction time if I try to get in front of them to hit them with my own Unite move, and even if I succeed, some random Greninja on my team will come out of nowhere, hit them all while they're returning to base, and then immediately get destroyed. personally, I would like to see some power budget taken out of Shadow Sneak and put into Knock Off or Faint Attack playstyles. Make the stun on Knock Off slightly more reliable, as this move forces you to take actual risks while engaging opponents, unlike Shadow Sneak. It's healthier overall.

The meta to me right now feels like almost pure damage, so of course an obnoxious cc pokemon would feel over powered. As someone who plays smite, sableye is just a cc version of loki. When they dude comes out of invis you cc him and he's pretty much dead

In conversation about the jungle stealing meta now forming it's definitely an op strat and is not fun to play against. I honestly think less pokemon should be jungle dependent, I dare say no pokemon should be jungle dependent and it should be a bonus to a mon that has the buffs and xtra levels but shouldn't decide whether a mon is capable of participating or not. That way even when your jungle is being stolen you're already competitive enough to fight off your invader and hopefully counter them.
