    OU: Strategy Precision of Play

    That is the flaw of the example I gave for continued discussion, as it was absolute to the one play. There's no point in backtracking to broaden the example because it served its purpose in advancing the discussion. The best approach for a competitive player is to weigh their options and the...

    OU: Strategy Precision of Play

    You are admitting here that you do manage probability in your matches, which is a good thing. If you know you need a certain percentage of health to win, you aren't going to recover past that point because you are aware of the luck chances that are working against you. Though, in this example...

    OU: Strategy Precision of Play

    This is where I wanted the discussion to go, thanks Pride. Just to move on from my previous post, the example I gave you lists your probability of successfully accomplishing your sequence of moves at 25.6%. The point I am making is that if you don't consider these numbers or know how to...

    OU: Strategy Precision of Play

    Let's put the line of thought from your post into a potential real game situation. You have a Pokemon active with approximately 30% of its health, access to a recovery move that heals 50% in one turn (Recover, Soft-Boiled, Moonlight, etc.), you are carrying Leftovers, you outspeed the opponent's...

    OU: Strategy Precision of Play

    I was recently discussing match strategy with someone that sparked a provocative thought pertaining to the game as a whole and thought it would be nice to share. A player can make the right decision at every turn and still lose the match. To expand the context of that statement, it means that...

    Forum Reorganised

    There = OC Chillax is active almost all the time, so none of the threads in OC will appear on the index for any length of time.

    Forum Reorganised

    I don't think it's a good idea to have the Chillax Zone as a sub forum of Online Competitions. OC needs as much exposure as it can get to draw in more members. The threads in there don't have a chance of appearing on the forum index for any length of time with the Chillax Zone covering it up.

    It's fine, I don't have an immediate need to do the trade. As long as you're cool saving it for Sunday, I can take care of professor light first.

    That's fine. I do have two of your items now, so if you come online again today, send me a PM and we can do half of the trade. My streak is just getting back into quality BP territory. If you won't be online tomorrow, I can do the deal with professor light tomorrow and send you the other two...

    Lol, after reading your post here I realized you put 12am. My mistake. I'll have the rest of the BP I need a little later. I should be able to get the trade done before you have to go. I could do it for either Charizardite Y or Mewtwonite Y. Your choice since I don't have either. Let me just...

    How many Ability Capsules do you need? Is that your local time when you are available? That's a time when I'm never online. We can probably work out a time with the weekend coming up.

    I recently used my last Ability Capsule, but it's pretty easy to get more. I can work out something if you can spare any of the Mega Stones in Y or even something like Leftovers. Not really sure if there are many other competitive one-per game items.

    Since you have loads of each, how about 4 IV Drilbur (male if its not Mold Breaker please), Marill, Rotom, Honedge? If that's cool, just give me some time to finish acquiring all of the BP I need. My current streak just got frozen at 64. I can do the deal tomorrow.

    I can do the trade a little later this evening when Thanksgiving festivities are over. I'll PM you when I see you're on.

    If you can do those 2, I will throw in a Weakness Policy for you.
