Hell yes! Loved when you used to do this kind of content. Also just a general comment to add : as a long term viewer since your Gen 4 days, it’s so awesome to see your channel popping off again !
ehh, l feel like in a format like these you lose people's first reaction and original thought-process,, it's easy to say "l expected x and y" in postcom when you didnt actually thought about x and y in the heat of the moment during the battle. (not accussing anyone of lying, but if you post-record after a day or 2 you could misremember/forget what your exact thought-process was at the time right.) Also l feel like sometimes the tone/mood of the voice can give away whether it's a win or a loss,, it's hard to stay upbeat/impartial when you know damn well that you made some misplays and you're gonna lose the battle for them. Also l feel more suspense during a live-com compared to a post-com battle, but that might just be personal preference. Again, no shade towards haydunn or anyone in particular, l just feel like these things are pretty significant drawbacks to post-com. Though l agree that postcom has the advantages of being more concise and structured, and Hayden is way more comfortable with post-com since most of his content is post-com, so it's really no problem if he decides to do post-com for the rest of the season, l just wanted to share some arguments for the other side of the debate :]
When I saw you joined the SPL, I lost my freaking mind! Haydunn, you did great and with your amazing and very cool way of making teams, I know you'll do well. Just know we all rooting for you!!
Was pumped to find out that you joined Joey's draft league and were gonna play in this format! Tough week 1 but excited to see what you bring next week!
I appreciate the explanation of the draft. This is the first draft series I've got into and every video I've watched so far has failed to explain the mechanics of the actual draft.
Tough loss, I know it’s a risk but I think knowing they would either go ice move or electric move when you had in goodra, you should have pulsed. They are unlikely to click quake as it only punishes one of the 3 while it’s useless to the other too, and the opponent was ahead so they couldn’t afford the passive play and give up moment when the odds weren’t good. Love your content and was so excited to see you back in the draft format, really hope to see some more aggressive plays in the future.
Appreciate the support bro, and definitely right on that. My next few matches also do not go well as I’m certainly ass at draft LOL def don’t get the hopes up but I’m tryin my best for sure
@@Haydunn I don’t think you give yourself enough credit you’re a good battler, but I bet if you reach out to Emvee or other coaches they will help you out. I struggled a lot with drafting in league too.
Nice! I know it didn't go your way this time, but you drafted a smokin team and you still had some awesome plays. Can't wait to see more draft battles!
Very happy to see you back in one of these draft leagues! Super fun to see which teams emerge from the drafting and how you trainers are able to get them working together.
Hell yea brother lets gooo!! Love watching your draft battles, I absolutely loved the Let's Go draft league. Its really great seeing your creativity shine!
Oh hell yea, I loved the previous draft leagues. Love seeing you still uploading, been watching since gen 4 wifi battles. i even used to make memes and send you them on facebook LOL
DUDE YES loved the last time you had draft content up on the channel. Rly shows off your battling skills & is different from your usual content, super cool to see it return!
Dont worry too much about results, it's your first week back and this matchup did seem really tricky! Looking forward to next week's match! :] It was unfortunate about the ChestoBerry, but l guess it does make sense that people might overprep against sleep due to your darkrai, though in this case idk if you could really expect specifically tinkaton to run it since it wouldnt outspeed darkrai and thus wouldnt be a switch-in and if you wait to hard-switch you mightve already put something else to sleep thus making chesto on tinka redundant. At 11:37, l wonder if it wouldve been a good mid-ground play to switch-in your slowking-G here. The obvious switches are gyara and glisc, so tusk would never go for a ground move. Tusk either goes for supercellslam or icespinner, either of with slowkingG takes with ease. You'd still need to switch again afterwards to either gliscor or gyara, but it lets you scout what your opponent would do without any drawbacks since regenerator would heal you back up to full (barring a crit)
I am SO excited to see the return of this tournament! Supet interesting set-up with the team and point distribution. Looking forward to the rest of this season ((:
I like the post commentary. Kudos for being willing to show off a game you lost. You played it well and I the commentary was very good. Would watch the rest of the series.
I've always loved the draft but now that you're in it i know you can shake it up with your skills and variety. Following you through it bro love the videos forever a fan.
1.) PLEASE keep the draft league content coming! Incredibly entertaining and close match! 🍿 2.) I personally would LOVE to see you do a live com, as most of your content is post com. It would add an interesting dynamic to the channel! 3.) Day 10 of asking Haydunn for doubles content 👀
As an actual Kings fan, I've been waiting for the return of the Sacramento Seakings for I dont even know how long now but hey, the Rapidspins logo is pretty slick. Excited to see a return to this format. Draft league is such a cool idea. The sport-like nature of it really separates it from standard competitive formats in such an interesting way
Great video as always! I believe post commentary is better for videos like this, and maybe for future weeks talk about what made you choose to bring which pokemon for that opponent, i would definitely be interested in that!
YOOO it's so great seeing you back again man, with the legendary intro music and everything! Unfortunate start for week 1 but you played insanely well, hoping for a win next week!
To be fair, your opponent had a lot of moves I didn't think they got like quick attack for orgerpon and supercell slam for great tusk. Really unexpected. I wish you luck in next week's battle!
You should make a video that shows/ talks about what Pokemon each team has available. Or, walk through some of your planning against your next opponent and all their possible Pokemon in the upload of the match.
Oh damn, I didn't know they kept this running. Last time I saw this draft was when Nappy was still active... Unless its a different draft with some of the same logos, idk
hey, I know that in this draft you are the coach and it's up to your choice, but I think on jolteon, one of the weeks you can run specs. Tera if a fairy move is needed and you can get momentum with volt switch with a ton of power
Hey Haydunn! I am a new subscriber and am so excited for this draft season. I just wanted to contribute my thoughts. I’m really hopeful you can get live commentary going for the next battle. Post just isn’t the same. We don’t get genuine reactions or live thought processes. You have already reflected on the match and your decisions so we don’t really get that sense of “playing with you” it’s like watching a recap, which to me personally is much less exciting. Others may disagree. Just my two cents.
I'm not super competitive or anything but I have been using regular Slowking and Hisuian-Goodra recently and what I've felt worked the most for them was Weakness Policy Slowking with slack-off but it doesn't always pop off, usually I need a special wall and if does live a hit and get the boost I can maybe kill one thing, but a smart player will have coverage (and other times they underestimate it and it pops off). The Hisuian-Goodra is honestly my most favorite pokemon to play with in the game right now, it'll basically never live an earthquake from a Great Tusk, but I give it HP and attack investment, assault vest, and I run counter. Most people don't expect the counter and boom the Goodra checks the Goodra-check. No recovery because assault vest but there are times I can't control the momentum and think, I'm junk gonna counter from full HP with my special wall lol. Hisuian-Goodra is goated. Edit: Realized none of these things work cause I also got trick room on the Slowking and when you use counter once in competitive they're going to expect it. Still pretty cool mons though. Stoked to see the next match you picked some cool mons.
Hell yes! Loved when you used to do this kind of content. Also just a general comment to add : as a long term viewer since your Gen 4 days, it’s so awesome to see your channel popping off again !
LFG!! Your last competitive draft league a few years ago were some of your best videos of all time. I can't wait!!
So hyped to see you there man. In my eyes you and Joey are the true OGs of this community.
Joey?

I agree. Keep it like this please.
The Chesto was lowkey a big clutch too. It was for Darkrai as you say but damn… instrumental in setting up their win. Love these matches though.
You and Shady both being back makes me incredibly stoked.
When I saw you joined the SPL, I lost my freaking mind! Haydunn, you did great and with your amazing and very cool way of making teams, I know you'll do well. Just know we all rooting for you!!

I appreciate the explanation of the draft. This is the first draft series I've got into and every video I've watched so far has failed to explain the mechanics of the actual draft.
See haydunn, click haydunn!
I think this team needs some immediate offensive pressure. Nothing you can slap a specs or band on and blow holes to grab momentum
Your contents are addictive!
No wonder algorithm hates you,
People wont look at other videos if you got recommended!
YOOO I love the draft leagues and seeing that you’re joining is honestly like a dream come true. I am so hyped!!
Kinda crazy that your opponent was able to draft 3 big threats in Ogrepon, Iron Bundle, and Great Tusk.
I’m sure he had the option to take one of the three, but opted for weaker Pokémon. I mean Darkrai is strong but it’s not these new mons.
some of the stuff that gets passed in draft is absolutely wild.
@@mattevans1643Haydunn loves using weaker stuff. He did have the title of the UU King for a while.
@@THEGRUMPTRUCK everyone has the same budget, it's not like he had points left.
Ogrepon isn't as good because it can't tera but yeah pretty crazy draft

This is the content I have been waiting for! LFG

SPL has been on absolute fire with the folks it has brought in for the last few seasons. Looking forward to these games. So good to see Leo back.
Yo Haydunn! So happy to see you in draft league. Looking foward to the rest of the season
YO I AM SO HERE FOR THIS! what a dope surprise
Haydunn SPL draft league content is FINALLY here, super excited! Good luck this season!

What dafuuuqqq, Leodan team looking sweaty af.
You got some absolutely insane draft picks, wish you the best of luck this season

Excited you’re in this league. This will be awesome.

Mad respects for not bringing any of the sh*tty paradox shts
Love this, good luck in your next match!
Good try, Haydunn! I really enjoyed the video and you got it next time 🙌
Tough game man, 6fthax brought the heat (ice?) this round but you still played as well as you could
Their Ogerpon being nicknamed Asuka is such a good reference, I never would've thought to nickname it that but it fits so well!
Is it because of NGE? Never watched it so idk.
I just joined my first draft tournament with a modified pika cup and I actually had multiple mons on this team! So I’m a huge fan!
honestly so dope youre gonna be playing in the spl

Hell yeah! We love a draft league. Cant wait for you to take the gold
As much as I like Hayden.... If his opponents all have sweaty teams like Leodan then I doubt he's taking gold.
@@nolongeraperson let me dream
This is awesome. Where can the casuals do this? Seems like a ton of fun
I love this new channel's era! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
