As someone who has played almost exclusively stall for the past decade (ever since Gen 4), I can confirm the truth of this statement. Of course, Stoll is like chess. You're thinking 20 moves ahead. Most people don't play Pokemon to play chess. They play Pokemon for an adrenaline rush based on prediction. Well...that's their problem. 3:-)
I don't play stall I just fight it so often that I have Xatu and Manaphy with rain dance just help deal with stall (as well as set screens and steal stats but yknow, hydration and magic bounce)
@@kierany9 you know how eruption heatran is locked to a speed decreasing nature? Thanks to gen 8's nature mints, that's no longer an issue. Yea there are bullshit fast Pokemon in OU now, but eruption heatran can now be timid as opposed to quiet nature.
Scarf heatran was buffed with the nature thingy but i honestly would prefer specs blast or even specs eruption on a good read. Unfortunately for me im garbage so i can keep dreaming about the specs eruption lol.
I love the "stall is for losers" line. Stall has dominated the upper echelons of competitive Pokemon singles for most of the last two decades. So. Losers win.
1500 in OU is what I'd call peak dunning-kruger zone, you tend to run into a lot of really decent players who wipe the floor with bad players but get equally crushed by somebody competent. So if you know what you're doing, you can run into some stupidly aggressive HO kids at 1500 and beat them easier than someone at 1300 who's a lot worse overall but who doesn't suicide his entire team by turn 10.
@@kierany9 oh, fair, maybe im wrong but i feel like you can know what you are doing while not being that much higher than 1500 tbh. also I don't see players at 1300 that are straight up bad, its obviously not impressive but you cant just not know what you are doing at all from my experience.
"I have a Chansey and a Toxapex. I'm just gonna stay in with Mega Sab."
Stall might be pretty lame, but that dude had no clue what he was doing.
@@ddshoo5282 sssh, let him have his confidence
@Pm Pik It's Fire Blast, not Overheat, don't know if that makes a difference in a calc because of the Sp. Att drop
@@ddshoo5282 It was Eruption, not Fire Blast. And wasn't it a 2HKO ?
Stall is not lame. Lugia with Recover and Toxic and Eviolite Chansey with toxic and soft boiled would like to know your location.
@@ClemenGG i love how you just believed him when that was a completely insane thing to say lol
I subscribed when you OHKO'ed the Sableye.

stall players are unironically subhuman
i would know, I play stall
As someone who has played stall multiple times in the past, yes, i completely agree.
As someone who plays stall all the time, I 100% agree

So he's the OU version of water spout scarf kyogre, might try that really soon
That last one is so realistic, they just leave once it looks like you can win
Which defeats the whole point of stall. Why play stall If you aren’t trying to turn Cap
Scarf eruption is viable now
yo what
explain

Isn’t Glastrier slow?
Honestly the read on the mawile switch made this so much funnier
fair and balanced.
i love how you hit every fire blast and i can't land a single one. i'll stick to eruption, thank you.
Eruption Heatran is the goodest boi.
That felt so good watching that stall dude forfeit
I know this is old but dude you deserve more views this is well made
I love that you used Fire Field’s music from F-Zero GX.

Trick room is an option.
But trick room is limited and you have to swap between your mon who can use trick room and heatran
