ITT: post butthurt Showdown nerds

>>33507128
Crits are bullshit, but they don't warrant sodium of this magnitude

>>33507141
They're not even bullshit.

They're the simplest way to include some reality without ruining the game as a whole.

If you could control when your Pokémon happened to hit them in a weak spot and cause more damage, they'd just be basic hits because everybody would go for them.

RNGing them makes it much more satisfying than trying to do some kind of real time nonsense which will always be a fail in games. Or makes it a gimmick you risk losing over for trying to set up. Either way much more fun than any other way of doing it.

The games have MANY problems, but crits are absolutely not one of them.

>>33507162
It doesn't add realism you dummy, it adds variety
Consistent damage would make the game more straightforward and reliable, but crits add some unpredictability to spice things up
In which case yes, they're bullshit, but only when they happen to you

Yeah I bet you absolutely detest when you get a game changing crit so much that you surrender in pity of your opponent.

>>33507326
Luck managment is also a skill.

>>33507450
Unless it's a set built around landing critical hits, I'd have to disagree here.

>managing an uncontrollable variable is a skill

>>33507478
life are full of uncertaneties. dealing with accidents and knowing when to take risks and when not to is a skill.

Wow. How can you even be mad when your entire team was randomly picked for you? Why act like a pretencious dick when you literally did nothing as far as team building goes? I hope this little faggot gets his dick ripped off and fed to him.

When you benefit, is it?

If you're not running Scope Lens Kartana with Night Slash, Leaf Blade and Psycho Cut, you're doing it wrong. 50% of the time it completely messes up your opponent's calc.

>>33508432
>Not running Scope Lens Super Luck Night Slash Honchkrow for 100% crit
I-I'll see you down at 1100-1200 Elo my guy

>>33507326
Crits, accuracy and random effects are the only things keeping Pokemon from being a solved game.
The absolute state of retards who barely understand the game they're playing.

>>33508550
No I mean this has to be ironic or something, surely nobody is this autistic

>>33508524
>>33507320
People like this are ridiculous. I remember playing a game 4v4 doubles on battle spot, my opponent had a greninja that froze 2 of my mons on the fist ice beam, got a crit, then rage quit when he missed a Draco meteor.

>>33508463
One beast boost already gives you 1.5x damage, which is basically a guaranteed crit. Except you can still crit on top of the 1.5x boost.
I guess I'll see you down in the 1300's

>>33507320
Fucking krauts amirite

Someone called my mother a dog in french after he gloated about how dumb my game-winning play actually was. That was in english, though. Idiot.

You guys tell me what's wrong with that picture.

The top right of the image is the cringiest part.

>>33507162
I'd go far as to say unless they improve the distribution of moves like Haze or abilities like Unaware then crits are almost necessary to not have Pokémon like the VGC Snorlax be absolutely insane, the threat of a crit ignoring it's defensive boosts and killing it where a normal hit wouldn't means setting up with a reliable recovery Pokémon less faceroll and makes them make decisions based on a crit ruining their entire set-up

>>33507128
When I know i'm going to lose & I'm butthurt I make all my possible moves I can until I reach my last turn and then I write "[[my name]] won the battle!"
and disconnect for maximum time stall
>>33508479
both were butthurt retards that kept replying instead of leaving

>>33507478
there are ways to control the "uncontrollable"
you're just being retarded because you don't know how

>stalleye for half of the entire battle
>purposely leaves out sableye when you respond to him about you stalling
Disgusting.

>>33507326
I have no problem with RNG, I have problems with RNG manipulation. I can accept that my Fire Blast will miss 15% of the time, what I can't accept is an opponent that double teams once can become unhittable even with the moves that are weaker in exchange for reliability, and this is supposed to be balanced with always hit moves that are so weak they are nearly worthless in every other situation so of course they don't hit.

>>33509911
>having two defensive Pokemon and four Pokemon that melt at room temperature makes for a stall team
>opp being a literal retard and leaving his Donphan on Sableye for 20 turns intead of going Rotom-H, Porygon, or literally anything that doesn't lose to Sableye
You're disgusting, don't post in threads about competitive ever again, trash.
