Maybe this is copium, but I don't think Ice will lose that much usage, considering we do have weavile back at full power. Some MU's won't be as easy sure, but nothing too major imo. Ice will still be a good type; it just won't have its broken toys that the "Better types" will still retain access...

This may not matter to some people, but its worth pointing out that yesterday, the Mono room ran "The People's Mono" room tour where the specific things were banned (in addition to mono's current banlist): Baxcalibur, Ogerpon (Fire and Water), Flutter Mane, Chien, Gouging Fire, Archuladon...

I have to ask, because this is kinda important. Will Monotype be following the ridiculousness OU is doing by banning sleep entirely? I know Monotype doesn't exactly follow OU, but I felt like this was important to ask because the ban indirectly hit every other tier below OU as a result. That and...

Perhaps my opinion will not matter at all, but when has that ever stopped me from posting them? I certainly agree with most of Azicks statement (though if you banned every mon listed I feel like flutter/zama/gambit, the last two in particular, would need to go immediately), but honestly...I...

I honestly fail to see how this conversation is at all complicated because lets say you do ban A-tales. Guess what? You just run Abomasnow to achieve similar results with Bax. Ban Icy Rock? Use Light Clay (or vice versa). Baxcalibur will still be a problem. Ban A-tales, abomasnow, icy rock and...

No you wouldn't.

Personally I think the only tiering action that should happen is Baxcalibur and Urshifu-S. In particular in regards to ice; Banning Icy Rock, Light Clay, or Alolan Ninetales will not solve the main problem people were largely complaining about in regards to ice: Baxcalibur. Baxcalibur can still...

To be fair, I did say in the post right after that I'm unsure and even leaning towards Bax. To answer this post though, whilst there hasnt been action precedent for Icy Rock, there has been for Weather Rocks in general before. That was my line of reasoning. The closest comparison would be smooth...

Actually....I'm unsure. I think its time to wipe the snow off the windshields and just ban Bax if the council thinks Ice is doing too much. I know I just said get rid of icy rock because it provides so much free value, but the discussion still comes back to Bax in some regard, and I saw some...

Since we're talking about Ice, from someone who has played Ice alot, I agree with Neko's sentiment, that if anything from ice should go first, its Icy Rock and then see what happens. I believe Icy Rock is the superior item to run on Ninetales over light clay since Snow is just so much better...

I do not think Hypnosis is worth running at all on either darkrai and ninetales. I can't speak for darkrai too much, because I'm not familiar with dark post-dlc1, but for Ninetales? You can't cut moonblast or encore imo. Moonblast helps immensely deal with the fighting MU (though with Ape being...

You know, I've actually been enjoying myself. Way more than previous gens. It actually feels like the DLC this time around really shook things up, and not just cemented the "status quo". Outside of Ape (BAN APE BAN APE BAN APE), nothing feels overly too ridiculous. I'm curious to see how the...

The nightmares...they're returning

Like I said in my previous post, I don't see any way how Chien can get suspected or quick banned with how it's looking right now. I don't think Chien will be stronger than it ever was then at the start of this generation. Ice and Dark getting buffed overall won't change much in the higher end of...

To be honest, I don't think Chien will be quick banned. If nothing was done this long about it, where it was a bigger threat back then than it is now (and will be, because I don't think dark will overpower say water or fairy) then I don't think the inclusion of mandibuzz will change much. I can...
