Is stall easy mode?
Stall is so stupid they call it verlisify
>>33118907
Only because anything that can beat it is booted up to ubers
>>33118907
it's brain dead mode

Mate, I just really like sheer force Landorus-I
and it's never remotely usable because it's too good at breaking stall for OU and too shit for Ubers
>>33118907
It certainly is annoying as fuck and arguably unbeatable if played by someone who knows what they're doing. I had a game against the standard stall six yesterday and it carried on for 124 turns. Then again I was just trying to have fun with a monosteel team, so I have no right to complain if I got beaten by an actual strategy, as braindead and monotone as it is.

But that's not hyper offense

Lando-I breaks much more than just stall.
>>33118907
Eviolite chansey is the bulkiest pokémon in the game, surpassing walls like lugia, giratina, and even Zygarde at 100%. The rest of the team is built around that, with Skarmory and Mega Sableye covering the rest.

Playing stall seriously is effectively the same as selling your soul to win
>>33118989
hyper offense has been bad since gen 6, in part because of the constant bans to its best pokémon
>>33118907
Not in Gen 7. There's a lot that can break stall nowadays. Why do you think they run Dugtrio as a generic answer to most stallbreakers? Dugtrio is actually great at ripping at stall apart too. Just run a big special attacker like Koko or Lele or Y and trap Chansey with Dugtrio.

Yeah I think Chansey is the problem. I agree because they only need Chansey to cover SpDef really and the rest can be concentrated on Def, meaning less holes in the team to exploit. At the same time, I think Blissey would have to be put on blast too if ever Chansey left, since it's a valid replacement, especially appealing since Blissey can run Shed Shell for Dugtrio. I had seen some Shed Shell Blissey stall teams in earlier Gen 7 OU prior to the suspect test for Dug, doesn't tank as hard as Chansey but still fulfills the special wall role as well.

A bad player playing stall still won't reach the top of the leaderboards so no.
