Ended 11th at the Bologna SPE 🔥🔥🔥🔥
There are no words to describe last weekend’s experience, it was my first time playing in an official tournament and the results were way above my expectations. 1/X
Noooooooooo no se puede jugar no se cuantos criticos me han caido al ting lu, una major rubada toca volver el gym el dia que no me roben gano el torneoooo
Won my first ever VG Challenge
15/I’m not going anyway
s/o to AIVGC goated playlist go check it out
Ended up making Top16 at VGC Trainer School Open tournament with 350+ players, nothing special you may think...
I agree with this despite the fact that the tour was played on Nintendo Switch and I don't own one. 1/3
WE ARE NPAA CHAMPIONS!!!!!!
I ended my run with a decent 6-3, going from 5-0 to 5-3 was something I wished didn't happen, but in the end we won and that's what matters.
Huge shououts to my managers
@DamoVGC
and
@KitWillerVGC
for drafting me and to all the helpers and teammates.
When we needed him the most, he was there!
WE ARE NPAA CHAMPIONS!
Massive thanks to everyone who made it possible:
@NPAArcadian
, my colleagues
@KitWillerVGC
and
@Luminaryyyyyy
, our great helpers and of course our players!
This one is yours, enjoy it guys - you deserved it!
After wasting 40 mins instantly giving forfeit in every single bo3 me and
@Ghiso__
managed to achieve the lowest gxe possible (we had to lose many more games since at a certain point even if we lost the gxe went up to 11.1%). Unfortunately 2 people outsped us and ruined the score
@playpokemon
unfortunately not having a cp bar drastically increases the gap between wallet warriors and player who don't have enough time and money to attent almost every major event
put a way higher cp bar
bfl at 1 for internats 4 for regionals and remove locals from the ta for internats
that’s just ridiculous, we got people trying to scam wins and in addition we got judges that don’t have an idea on how to do their work in the biggest online tournament circuit we got but y’all are telling me that this game is gonna become an esport soon
yeahhhhh surely
That's how I lost the win and in in the VR to honolulu challenge. The judge declared that I had to lose because I didn't show the code of the disconnection.
My opponent showed the error 2-ALZYA-0010 (server issue) but they still decided to gift him g3. 1/2
@RubenVGC2
The final shoutouts go to the whole SAX VCL group, every member of the Tugurio, the Flexing Buzzwoles group and to
@Byte_v24
for the amazing pictures that he took during the event. And most importantly shoutouts to IL BISSO BOA and to LA MANO DEL GAUCHO.
I even had the opportunity to go on stream and win the broadcasted match, which is still unbelievable to me. Then I want to congratulate my brother
@RubenVGC2
for winning the whole event, sei fortissimo fra. 3/X
@ragimali
the point is that you are just making vgc twitter a worse place, even if you are on the right side the majority of people doesn't care at all about those events and an average person is just seeing walls of text of just pointless discussions, that's is so annoying
Regarding the tournament I was hoping to get into day2 but I managed to go 12-3 in the end, bubbling the top cut. Which is even crazier considering that I don’t actually have a Nintendo Switch and I had to ask some friends to lend me their one and their game cart. 2/X
@RubenVGC2
Tournament aside, the whole experience was just unbelievable, I had the opportunity to meet lots of people I used to interact with online and for the first time I really felt part of this amazing community. 4/X
@NikyuAlex
Semplicemente è una competizione a squadre e la skill dei player singoli non è tutto quello che conta, Marco ha perso per culo, campo aveva un matchup autoloss e le altre 3 loss sono boyt taran e calvonix che non mi sembrano gli ultimi coglioni presi a caso
Reg A: Meluca's balance
Reg B: Roaring moon+garganacl balance (shoutout to my guy jude lee)
Reg C: boring new balance with gambit instead of ting lu
Reg D: Japanese balance
Reg E: Marcofiero's LAIC team/Suica's team
Reg F: I hate this meta I can't find a decent team
I am curious what archetypes people have played throughout all the regulations so far
For me:
Reg A: Balance
Reg B: Rain
Reg C: TTar Sand w/Garchomp
Reg D: LilliKoal TR w/Ursaluna
Reg E: LilliKoal PsySpam
Reg F: Howl stuff and PsySpam

è stata la domanda che ci siamo posti dopo 40 minuti e la riposta che ci siamo dati è stata col cazzo abbiamo già buttato abbastanza tempo

@SoulSurVGC
Just think that the percentage of hitting bleakwind is the same of avoiding dark pulse flinch or just any 90% accuracy move have the same percentage of avoiding ice beam freeze. Hitting a 90% accuracy move doesnt mean being lucky but its a percentage that you got in your favour
@AldrichYan
i’ve been playing on showdown for like 3 years now and i never had the opportunity to attend an irl tour so i didn’t have the necessity to have a switch, then i decided to take part in this tour but since switch 2 is coming out next year it was pointless to buy one now

@ralfdude90
@PengyTwitch
i was not talking about this specific scenario, it was just a general argument but whatever im happy that everything ended in the best way
@terrapiattista
@Drake_VGC
@ArtcarVGC
la vera domanda è chi sei tu per dire che tu hai investito impegno e tempo e altra gente no, se uno è stato draftato è perchè evidentemente i capitani hanno visto maggiore impegno/performance di un altro non mi sembra difficile da capire
@DesuVGC
Ludicolo non lo vedo così bene perché basculegion mi sembra un’alternativa migliore e ci sono un sacco di grass molto forti ora quindi il secondo tipo non è nemmeno così tanto un plus, il resto ci sta invertirei solo il cane con la catena con la scimmia
@45mice
i kinda disagree on ogerpon base worse than the rock form, the base is kinda clutch in some spots, is a really good threat for all flutters pao and stuffs that are usually faster and cannot be intimidated, the rock doesnt even learn rock slide i really think its the worst by far
@AndyBakesYT
pokemon showdown, nerd of now damage calculator, pikalytics, victory road, topcut explorer, liberty note, vgcpastes doc (if they update it), limitless/battlefy for playing tours, also twitter is really helpful
@SoulSurVGC
Completely ignored new stuff just kept playing reg d team, literally everything is too bad compared to what we actually have, they threw infinite counters to urshifu water in the game and its still one of the most broken mons
