Mega Blastoise Just Won a 1500+ Player Tournament! | Littleroot Lessons Ep 337

Welcome, Delphox Blastoise.

This is nothing new.

Yeah,

it's

fine.

And I'll preface this with saying there wasn't a lot of expectations going into this event of seeing anything crazy.

Correct.

With Worlds being, what, two weeks out now?

It is literally two weeks away.

You're not going to see a lot of innovation, I don't think, at an event like this to try to... people are trying to keep things private for worlds at this point yes correct which like sure that's fine and granted not everyone in this is going to worlds right like there are plenty of people here who've just played just to play so you know some people aren't building for worlds because they don't need to so I think this is a like prime example of just like hey this is a good team I'm gonna play it and it's gonna be fine

You'll notice that a lot for this tournament.

It was just a lot of standard, pretty common stuff.

There was some cool things.

We'll talk about the cool things, obviously.

But a lot of this stuff is going to be pretty standard.

A lot of this stuff is going to be teams you've seen before.

And The big takeaway is Zard may look like it's the big dominant Pokemon on paper, but there is still plenty of counterplay into Zard, this team being one of the better examples of good ways to handle certain Zard archetypes.

I do know that this version can struggle into the dual weather type Zard teams some.

But I will also preface this with any team can win at any point.

Even Zard teams can also beat this team.

It's not a clear one's better than the other.

Yeah.

definitely at this point in the format it comes down to a lot of RNG and a lot of player death yes I

mean which is honestly I mean that's just like the tried and true way to explain it anymore yeah good players are good

Yeah, especially like that's the big takeaway is at this point in the format's life, like this format is pretty much settled out.
