It’s definitely oversaturated as is. Most attackers do something really functionally different from each other, the only commonality being that they play at range, but most all-rounders just have a “dive to the backline, do a little stun, maybe brawl a bit, hope you kill something” gameplan. I like what they just did with aegislash, dragonite, and azumarill (buff the unique aspects of their kits) to make them all do different things from each other, but I would love to see more all-rounders with unique and creative mechanics behind them so we don’t run into all this outclassing.
@@camusreviews6877 I was hoping Mewtwo would release as an All-Rounder and have ranged AND melee options and I’m bummed because those tend to be my favorite all-rounders, they feel so unique. Dragonite and Charizard could use a buddy.
Crustle and Wigglytuff haven’t been properly rebalanced since the game changes to score shield and buddy barrier. Shields got worse overall, but the characters with shield-based Unite moves didn’t receive enough compensation to keep them relevant.
Crustle heavily struggles against umbreon, but running focus band for healing and Shell-Smash gives him an interesting niche. A defender with massive HP, good damage with stun or aoe, who isn't affected by slick spoon since his defenses drop to 0. And shell smash is only ever on cooldown for like 1.3 seconds after your buff ends, which gives you means to retreat or push in depending on what you need in the moment
I'm a wiggly main and made it to master class already this season with wiggly alone. She is a decent supporter still with damage to spare. I have an HP build and with a decent team, she's still an absolute unit. Wiggly forever 💕
I'm a Wigglytuff main and yes the game always play us dirty Here's my experience with the unite move in rank : after i use a unite move when getting beat up by 3 pokemon so i can ran away and the result was that i died during the unite move cause the shield wasn't enough Ps. It has a speedster that is 6 level while I'm still level 4
The problem with old defenders is just that defenders have changed. All the early game defenders had a niche, Crustle had team utility with stuns and walls, Snorlax was an amazing bodyguard and backbone to the team, and Slowbro stays in the fight with debuffs and stuns with Telekinesis and his super good ult. Mammo and Blastoise followed suite with disruptions and stuns alongside their bulk. But every defender after that has had one thing 4 of 5 of these dont have, self preservation, and amazing self preservation as well. Guess which one of the 5 early age defenders stayed relevant? The one who could reliably heal himself. I really dislike how Defenders have become. Any defender that cant last with an entire army beaming down on him as he regenerates tons of health is just considered bad, and the ones who cant must either become allrounders or bust. They cant just remove health gain from all the defenders, or add it to the old ones, so I hope we get more "true" defenders from here on out. Bring back the world of tanks.
my jaw legit dropped when i saw umbreon's stats and skills. I understand defenders have to mirror the development of new attackers but it's ridiculous when you look at snorlax and crustle. And it's not like they can update them, at most they can get numerical buffs
One more thing they do so much damage, defenders shouldn't be able to heal a ton and do so much damage. The second tree, umbreon and Lapras get they're moves they just stun so much and do crazy amounts of dmg and never die
@@PanchfulaRaut-ee9blI feel like thematically tree makes sense to be HP based, it’s not that he has crazy self healing but HP management is basically his gimmick, but giving umbreon crazy amounts of healing , CC and damage reduction makes it a pain to fight. Literally can be at 1% health and win a 1v3. It’s completely unfair for umbreon to be a healing tank, at most it can utilise its DR
i just redownloaded the game and starting getting back into watching the content after a couple months hiatus, i mained tsareena so her being the first up killed me lmao 💀
@@Him_ekoShe is in fact that bad in the sense that, she cannot teamfight nearly as efficiently as the other All Rounders and dies extremely easily, even if it can spook and kill squishies
I think one of the things that's gotten out of control with this game is power spikes and fall off. Too many pokemon spike early and never fall off, while some pokemon need to get to level 7, 8 it 9 just to be as good or worse than pokemon that spike at 4 or 5. Level 14 Charizard should be eating level 14 Eeveelutions alive, that's how late game carries are supposed to work.
There is no balancing the Speedster class. In every MOBA the assassin class characters either delete enemies on sight, or get deleted on sight. Zoroark is so absurdly amazing because it gets immunity to cc and damage while dashing. You get less than 0.3s in between each dash to pin it down. It's nerfs won't be enough. It will still be the best speedster in game.
Your incorrect his not immune to damage and I'm pretty sure cc meets you after the dash I know because one time I was dashing long distance on a regirock to try secure it in a battle between point a and b in dash mode where your a shadow he dropped a rock on me and I died zoroarks amazing but actually has no immunity at all except for x jump in nightslash even your unite gives no immunity.
Surf/Hurricane Cramorant was my FAVORITE playstyle about 3 months into Unite launching. With such a small roster at the time, it just felt like it fit a role that NO other Pokemon really did, and sometimes you'd be able to Hurricane + Surf a key target right into your carry's line of sight, and when you had a great teammate who could follow up on your setups, you felt like the Chris Paul of Pokemon Unite -- great assist potential, but a lethal shot when called upon. I really wish it still had that much sway.
i was also a cram main and i just wish that unite would make both combos viable cause im tired of going dive airslash everytime, not saying surf hurricane is unusable but dive is just overall better
I wouldn't say that tanky pokemon hinder tyranitar. Ancient power buff allows you to ignore all defense and shields. The speed of the game has but if your team can stay close and allow you to get to 9 fast you're still fine. If you can play around the hindrance reduction while charging ancient power and then go ham you're still good. It also helps if you have good ranged pokemon that can pressure and kill pokemon that are running from you.
He needs a buff, but not a big one. Give us final evolve at 8 (but leave unite at 9) and I think he's way more viable. He's pretty good now if you double stack him.
Just realized mamo is getting a passive buff and Azumarill had one. Really hope the older mons get updated passives to as ot could be enough to help them a lot.
I’ve always thought it would be cool to have snorlax’s unite take up more space and actually body block choke points like the games. It could give his unite a little more utility it has now
Surf Greninja main here, I've been able to manage fine in soloq with Muscle Band, Scope Lens and RFS. Benefits of stacking are massive, but the risk is just as high since he's squishy through and through, especially early game. Buffs would be hella nice (and I wouldn't say no :) ), but IMO he doesn't desperately need them (at least for Surf builds, Shuriken's a bit of a different story). He's still able to ruin an entire team's day in a team fight, but players really need to learn to be patient and mindful about looking for opportunities to dive in. Unfortunately Greninja is also one of the most popular pokemon of all time overall, so you'll get a bunch of players who still do things like play him in lane, fail to get the exp they really need and/or play him in a super frontline-y manner. It also doesn't help that the current meta is also really tanky, so looking for surf reset opportunities is a lot harder.
I actually think Surf is better than Water Shuriken. Not only does it feel better but the mobility it gives+the resets it gives makes it feel super good.
Crustle main since day 1 here and I've noticed that his unite move just doesn't work anymore. I used to be able to run into the entire enemy team, pop unite and do huge amounts of damage whilst staying alive. But now only 2 people could reasonably challenge crustle while uniting, he just doesn't feel as impactful anymore
Im surprised mime didnt get a mention in the supporter category. I realize that its had its time in the sun, especially one specific build, but i feel like theyve almost gutted the mon. I dont get why power swap being broken led to them hard nerfing barrier confusion, but here we are. And bruv is doing work with mime, but the damage numbers really arent there at all unless you go triple damage(including stacking item), and triple damage support when umbreon lapras trev etc can do comparable or better numbers with defensive items just isnt it.
Bcz it was broken you one shot any Speedster or attacker fully stacked and let's not talk about powerswap with psychic that was just killing entire teams and not dying once the entire match
Unless you mean why they nerfed barrier confusion. In which case, power swap was the strong combo in the latest series of mime nerfs, yet they nerfed barrier mime too, despite that being, in my opinion, balanced
its still very good. with all the bulk in the meta right now it isnt the best as it was before, but put it against anything that isnt bulky and its essentially gg if it cant outdamage it. im glad its gone, that thing was the worst meta to ever exist. its funny how the two worst metas were both support disruptor class's... (Reason why i consider mimes the worst and not sableyes: it went on for considerably much more time and it stunned way more. sure, sableye made you unable to play, but that meta didnt really last long and it was more bareable than stun after stun after stun after stun. sableyes was still absolute hellfire though. stun after stun gives you hope of escaping, while being unable to play you kinda just accept your fate. also, sableye couldnt oneshot squishies. i rest my case)
@@-letspretendidontexist-8479 its really not very good. Id argue its one of the worst mons in the game right now, regardless of which moveset, and deleting squishies? Theres plenty of better options if you want that in a defender(which is insane in and of itself but another topic). Like, if you want to delete squishies you need to run spoon double specs, and even then you need to be fully stacked and have level advantage, and at that point, why are you playing mime instead of something that can actually carry? Mime is honestly too squishy for its roles, power swap is mediocre at supporting(compare it to blissey, comfey, elde, hoopa cleff) and stuns on a tank are nothing new, pretty much all relevant tanks have better cc than mime... and damage wise its also heavily outclassed too. And thats before mentioning the fact that Slowbro can stack too, as can mamo, trevenant, lapras... mimes in a bad spot, and outside of comfort picks or dedication theres really no reason to play it tbh.
Part of me really wants to try and keep tabs on pokemon that need help so that some attempt can be made to try and get them the help they need to succeed. Of course, some need that more than others, but it is more to try and keep an eye on things and hope that eventually, we reach a point where any pokemon can be seen as a viable pick. And really at this point, I can't think of any other pokemon that needs that help more than Crustle. As we near the 2nd anniversary with Mewtwo X getting ready to drop soon, I can't think of a time when Crustle was seen as "THE PICK." Everyone else has either been GOD TIER or sitting balanced around S-A-B, but Crustle always feels like it either claimed the C-Rank all for itself or is just the ambassador for D-Tier. If I could only pick one Pokemon that needs something to help it out, it's Crustle.
The 5 attacker solo q line hurts. So many times I run into this ...I finally learned to just bite the bullet and grab a defender. My win rate and enjoyment went up tremendously.
@@eeveeofalltrades4780 yeah I'll usually grab Lapras or Blastoise since I have them unlocked but really like playing Tree during the everyone's available weekend and Swine was a lot of fun at launch I've just had other things to buy. Really most of the defenders I can do an at least okay job with.
Tbh wiggly’s unite needs to be reworked because it sucks in its current state. The casting time so is long that by the time you can move the shield is gone. With everyone and their mom playing Sp. Attackers with slick spoon, the shield gets obliterated in seconds and as stated in the video Umbreon make the unite move useless. The only thing it’s good for in most situations is temp HP. They should change the move to be an AoE around Wiggly that gives allies Unstoppable for a few seconds and Wiggly can instant cast and move during the unite. Either that or an AoE CC move so she has 1 more tool for harassing and creating space for her team.
I’ve been running spdef +50 emblems and assault vest focus band wigglytuff for a while. It has one of the highest sp.def stats in the game and works really well as a tank. Cute charm is great for running up on special attackers with sing, and letting your team dissolve them. Works great with slow smoke.
I think Mr. Mime is kinda underwhelming right now. I know people hated when it was meta but now I feel it's worse than the guard swap version. The most reliable build IMO is confusion+barrier but nothing too crazy. They should buff a bit both confusion and psychic damage or the support moves to do more, like barrier to actually avoid enemies to cross with dash moves and power swap to buff/heal allies a bit more.
The biggest problem with Snorlax right now is Umbreon, who completely negates Block with its abilities to dash through it with Foul Play and resist the stun with Snarl. He'll be in a much better place once Umbreon's pick rate drops to a reasonable number. Additionally, I believe there's still a place for true defenders in this game. It's just that CC and damage negation isn't as sexy as sustain and damage dealt.
Yeah, Umbreon has been rough for Mamo too. That CC circle thing just makes it hard to use abilities. I wish he could jump it like he jumps walls. I mostly try to stack/lvl over them and then switch lanes. But I finished pretty good as a Mamo main, more buffs will be cool tho.
Agreeing with your statement on full attacker games. Recently played a match of 4 attackers on each team, with a Crustle on the other team, and I was a slow bro
When I first played Tsereena (probs spelled it wrong) I somehow survived a 5 v 1 (it was a one time thing) I’ve never had that sort of thrill happen to me so She has a special place in my heart.
I'm just a casual player in ultra and Tsareena was my main since she dropped, such a fun playstyle. But, whist I could still deal great damage get MVP in matches, it wasn't enough to win progress upwards in solo queues. I talked with people in a Unite Discord i joined and ended up trying water bear as a sub, due to similar play styles and just naturally being a better unit rn. And this is looking much better, if I play it right I could even get masters by the end of the season
4:02 I remember when tyranitar was this unstoppable monster against the waves and waves of squishy cinderace, talonflame, absol, you name it and I just mowed them down. Now, he just doesn’t feel as tanky as he used to.
Zeraora is still extremely valuable once you get it to level 9 but yeah I feel like the buff while somewhat minimal(as far as I'm aware) while make it shine a bit more
Throughout my time playing as a crustle main, no changes would help it become significant in any meta. It feels like the game devs just forget the good ol' rock crab for long periods of time, and I'm sad. I work my way around it though with some funny tactics (If you know, you know what they are lol), and the way I play it it's pretty decent in solo q meta.
I run mostly doubles and have a 58% winrate with Crustle. I would say a number of things would help him become high teir, like shell smash giving him hindrance resistance similar to rapid spin, this would give him a niche where with focus band healing and a high hp build he can push and take out attackers running spoon since shell smash removes his defenses meaning spoon is effectively useless against Crustle. Alternatively giving his all attacks the ability to crit instead of just basic and X-Scissor while giving him 15% crit rate at level 9 (5% at level 4) would give him amazing damage on objectives and enemies, giving him a slight attack buff and making rock tomb faster would make him amazing at stopping retreats especially if they make it so you cant dash through rock tomb anymore unless you have Eject button or a move like fly
I really need Tsareenas Def and Sp. Def to be buffed all the way back up and revert the shield changes to her grassy glide move. They can nerf her damage output somewhat on all of her moves and give her more def/sp Def and survivability. She's already out of the limelight and practically unplayable with all these slick spoon eevee's, just let her be a high skill ceiling harasser without deleting people unless she has a nasty lead. I can still 1v1 people with her but in a team fight against pokemon that just use AOE abilities I'm just constantly dead after 1 rotation of abilities.
Another pokemon I could see being on this list is Garchomp, even with the recent buffs Garchomp still feels wayyy under tuned, and a lot of it has to do with its universally slow cast and end time on moves making it hard to set up your boosted attacks without dying first, and the abundance of spoon users doesn't help it at all. It's pretty good at picking off backline squishies, but it's almost useless in a team fight because it's not particularly bulky and doesn't do a ton of burst damage until you have your boosted stacks up. It kind of just feels like a worse version of Machamp at this point
I can honestly even see an argument where Zeraora is more consistent honestly and kinda fulfills its job slightly better to carry even though they're very different roles I feel like Garchomp's playstyle/kit holds it back a good bit in soloQ or competitive into current meta and seems a bit outclassed in its role. Late game carries I think might be struggling the most right now arguably overall, needing to reach level 9 powerspike. I feel like they get outpaced a bit and even outclassed arguably I don't think it's bad necessarily but into current meta, kit/playstyle-wise, and in its role I think it's one of the ones that struggles a lot
In most 1v1 or 1v2 fights where it can stay close to the enemy Chomp will dominate normally but from experience if you try to dive into a team fight you just get deleted, it really needs better mobility i think, especially if it wants to maintain its boost counter. You can literally walk away from a chomp to disengage a fight and he can’t do anything back because lack of mobility.
I’ve had matches where I see a teammate pick Sableye and I think to myself “great this match is a wash” Then the match ends and turns out Sableye scored like 400 for the win. Like “…dam”
I tend to try and do that with Sableye but for some reason my teammates always decide to start a fight in the opponents' base rather than just waiting for them in our own base to make use of the heal and the shield. Plus, after Sableye's damage nerf it can no longer survive on its own without the help of a teammate, which destroys the purpose of stealth
I started playing Pokemon Unite casually a few days ago and Crustle is absolutely crushing most teams. I've had games where Zapdos spawned while an enemy Cinderace was still not even a Raboot. Crustle is my perfect boi and I don't care how bad he might be competitively.
The simplest balance change : Nerf the SUPER Tanky Defenders. They just don't die. It's so frustrating to play against them in Veteran and Ultra levels.
I feel like greedent needs a buff after A YEAR of getting nerfed many times and only of one buff which was again, a year ago. It is the lowest pick rate Pokémon out of all Pokémon after all Edit: This is the second least picked Pokémon, I checked, Tsareena is still taking the L
Def controversial I play greedent and I think it's perfectly fine but those are still cool buffs for greedent Maybe greedent will get a buff in the next battlepass cuz its gonna get a skin
I like the idea of Crustle being a "hammer" character: A sturdy juggernaut capable of construction and demolition. I've always had the idea to have shell smash give your attacks lifesteal - it'd flow well with X-Scissor and your unite move. Either way, I'd like Crustle to get more love nowadays. Unless its that mega score shield thing it used to do.
Wigglytuff main since day 1. My girl is overdue for a buff and the sing cooldown is just a small crumb. They have to revert back the amount of shields it gives on her ult. I play Wigglytuff like a defender with Aeos Cookie, Slick Spoon, and Shell Bell. Battle item is potion for more sustainability.
No buddy barrier? I feel like it's a must on wiggly cause the shield of her unite is so weak. I've also mained her since day one and I hope the sing cooldown buff is not the only buff she will get
@@marcelloi.8309 Well, this build I have for Wiggly is kind of a selfish playstyle. Aeos Cookie for more health overtime when scoring, shell bell and potion for healing, then slick spoon and shell bell for damage. But buddy barrier could probably replace either slick spoon or shell bell for more team coordinated fights.
At least Zeraora buffs, my boys are in need on some kind of compensation, I'm sad I cannot use my favs because they are not as strong as the decent ones, that can keep up and deal with mewtwo kinda
@@ryebreaddesalsa8157 Its Fly is bugged. If you don't press the ability again after casting it and wait for some time, its cooldown will still be 10s since the game starts the countdown from the point of the 2nd activation, not the 1st one like we had previously
In one match I kept 1v1 an Umbreon, I was Dragapult and the other person had Wish and Mean Look, which meant I was slowly dealing damage to it before I won, and at the end that specific Umbreon suffered 120k damage
i've come to notice that most all the speedsters are failing not only because of the huge amounts of tanky pokemon but all the stuns. Gengar for example you are attacking a pikachu they are about to die and then they use thunder and you are stunned ruining your whole combo and leaving you to instantly die
Not gonna talk about sableyes unite move? His knockup and confusion are nice, but you can't forget about his unite moves ability, which can be an absolute game changer
Last time I played this game was when Greedent was broken on drop. After coming back, I mainly play power swap tank mr mime. It’s fun still, but it’s very powercrept now. I’m hoping leavanny eventually comes to unite as well.
I hope the recent level adjustments make my boy Zeraora at least begin to rise up! Edit: finished the video and I couldn't agree more on the Solo Q all attacker thing! I mostly play Speedsters with pocket Cinderace and Eldegoss. But when I'm matched with those I'm forced to carry as the only supporter/defender (Blastoise) and it is *unfun*
I think the worst Supporter right now is Sableye. It's extremely squishy now and deals zero damage too while being melee. It doesn't really do much anymore
I’ve played Tsareena since the start of the game and I’ll never play anybody else in competitive. Also I’ve survived many 5v1s with her thanks to her incredible stomp She always has my heart ❤
Personally, i still sometimes use Tsreena, and she honestly hasn't dropped TERRIBLY, because as long as she's got teamates with her, she can still be tanky, but since Zacian and Mewtwo ect. have arrived, yes shes dropped, but i must admit, she still can be pretty strong.
As a person who recently picked up greninja and has been thoroughly enjoying it, I can verify that it NEEDS NEEDS NEEDS jungle to carry, and the difference between level 6 and level 7 is massive. Also my 6k shield Crustle build can say that Crustle is very bulky, however its hard to pull off.
@@ze-prestooohis season I’ve been playing ninja in lane and stacking. I’ve played around 70 matches with ninja this season, all in lane, at a +70% win rate. I always feel like I have an advantage against the opponents with a Shuriken ninja. A buff would be awesome tho. Would definitely increase the win rate. #Have to edit. Just hopped on Unite to double check my games played and win rate with ninja. 50 games played. 67% win rate
@@lguy8476 The Dragon Move-set is bad The Ground Move-set is the way to go with garchomp right now. However the Dragon Move set will never be good even if they were to buff it so yeah… The Ground moves Increase your defense and while attacking you deal extra damage and Healing effects. While Dragon is the stun build and Garchomp does not gain any bonuses with it.
Gengars only viable build is via special specs for goals adding sp atk, after about 6-8 goals it can consistently 1 shot most pokemon outside of defenders
As a surf/hurricane cram main since S1, hanging around 850 global rank for cram, I would say it’d be difficult to buff this build. Maybe a fraction of a second of cooldown decrease or CC increase for hurricane should be enough. Honestly I would like an increase in movement speed but it could make the dive build even more terrifying
One day my fave Electric Pokemon Zeraora will get some love. Grachomp really needed a buff for the longest time, but then they buffed him by speeding up his evos.
i only play her in a duoq with exp share support, otherwise shes too hard to use. really bad until lvl 6 and without exp share and healing she cant do anything.
Ttar lost a lot when they stopped it’s United move from being able to crit. It was busted but removing it is a massive nerf. They should’ve boosted the damage a bit when they did this
maybe they can increase Tsareena heal and shield but lower her damage? She could be someone who thrives in long skirmishes... instead of being a diver she could just be a disruptor maybe... Or if not then give her huge bursts but weak sustain... I think either is good
Speaking of crustle, can you try attack weight, energy amp, and either buddy barrier or exp share. Then pick stealth rock and either shell smash or rock tomb. And pair that with a cd reduction emblems and fluffy tail This allows crustle to toss stealth rock onto the field often and, after activating energy amp and fluffy tail on a objective will make stealth rock output a lot of damage similar to pre-nerf duraldon. This makes crustle a very bulky mage who can shred through your health bar when activating the unite move
How many did you expect??
Everyone I called made it 😂
I feel sad for wiggly and wiggly only. The others can eat get nerfed more for all I care.

And shell smash is only ever on cooldown for like 1.3 seconds after your buff ends, which gives you means to retreat or push in depending on what you need in the moment
I'm a wiggly main and made it to master class already this season with wiggly alone. She is a decent supporter still with damage to spare. I have an HP build and with a decent team, she's still an absolute unit. Wiggly forever 💕

The problem with old defenders is just that defenders have changed.

Surf/Hurricane Cramorant was my FAVORITE playstyle about 3 months into Unite launching. With such a small roster at the time, it just felt like it fit a role that NO other Pokemon really did, and sometimes you'd be able to Hurricane + Surf a key target right into your carry's line of sight, and when you had a great teammate who could follow up on your setups, you felt like the Chris Paul of Pokemon Unite -- great assist potential, but a lethal shot when called upon.
I really wish it still had that much sway.
Totally felt on this. I think they should make Surf come out a bit faster, that might give it a little more life.
i was also a cram main and i just wish that unite would make both combos viable cause im tired of going dive airslash everytime, not saying surf hurricane is unusable but dive is just overall better
I wouldn't say that tanky pokemon hinder tyranitar. Ancient power buff allows you to ignore all defense and shields. The speed of the game has but if your team can stay close and allow you to get to 9 fast you're still fine. If you can play around the hindrance reduction while charging ancient power and then go ham you're still good. It also helps if you have good ranged pokemon that can pressure and kill pokemon that are running from you.
He needs a buff, but not a big one. Give us final evolve at 8 (but leave unite at 9) and I think he's way more viable. He's pretty good now if you double stack him.
@@miketheperformer5972Stop with lvl8 bull crap he is supposed to be a late game monster thats all
Just realized mamo is getting a passive buff and Azumarill had one. Really hope the older mons get updated passives to as ot could be enough to help them a lot.
More defense on crustle's passive or maybe less hp needing to be gone for Max defense
I’ve always thought it would be cool to have snorlax’s unite take up more space and actually body block choke points like the games. It could give his unite a little more utility it has now
Wait that’s actually a great idea. Uniting on a goal should make that goal completely inaccessible and Snorlax should be a solid object. Genius
After mamoswine, all the defender are just all rounder with steroids that are super tanky and can heal themselves one way or another.
Surf Greninja main here, I've been able to manage fine in soloq with Muscle Band, Scope Lens and RFS. Benefits of stacking are massive, but the risk is just as high since he's squishy through and through, especially early game. Buffs would be hella nice (and I wouldn't say no :) ), but IMO he doesn't desperately need them (at least for Surf builds, Shuriken's a bit of a different story). He's still able to ruin an entire team's day in a team fight, but players really need to learn to be patient and mindful about looking for opportunities to dive in. Unfortunately Greninja is also one of the most popular pokemon of all time overall, so you'll get a bunch of players who still do things like play him in lane, fail to get the exp they really need and/or play him in a super frontline-y manner. It also doesn't help that the current meta is also really tanky, so looking for surf reset opportunities is a lot harder.
imagen surf buff
I actually think Surf is better than Water Shuriken. Not only does it feel better but the mobility it gives+the resets it gives makes it feel super good.
Crustle main since day 1 here and I've noticed that his unite move just doesn't work anymore. I used to be able to run into the entire enemy team, pop unite and do huge amounts of damage whilst staying alive. But now only 2 people could reasonably challenge crustle while uniting, he just doesn't feel as impactful anymore
Im surprised mime didnt get a mention in the supporter category. I realize that its had its time in the sun, especially one specific build, but i feel like theyve almost gutted the mon. I dont get why power swap being broken led to them hard nerfing barrier confusion, but here we are. And bruv is doing work with mime, but the damage numbers really arent there at all unless you go triple damage(including stacking item), and triple damage support when umbreon lapras trev etc can do comparable or better numbers with defensive items just isnt it.
Bcz it was broken you one shot any Speedster or attacker fully stacked and let's not talk about powerswap with psychic that was just killing entire teams and not dying once the entire match
@@lucynatas8458 it WAS, yes. At one point comfey was too, and wiggly was too. But this video isnt about the past
Unless you mean why they nerfed barrier confusion. In which case, power swap was the strong combo in the latest series of mime nerfs, yet they nerfed barrier mime too, despite that being, in my opinion, balanced
its still very good. with all the bulk in the meta right now it isnt the best as it was before, but put it against anything that isnt bulky and its essentially gg if it cant outdamage it.
im glad its gone, that thing was the worst meta to ever exist. its funny how the two worst metas were both support disruptor class's...
(Reason why i consider mimes the worst and not sableyes: it went on for considerably much more time and it stunned way more. sure, sableye made you unable to play, but that meta didnt really last long and it was more bareable than stun after stun after stun after stun. sableyes was still absolute hellfire though. stun after stun gives you hope of escaping, while being unable to play you kinda just accept your fate.
also, sableye couldnt oneshot squishies. i rest my case)
@@-letspretendidontexist-8479 its really not very good. Id argue its one of the worst mons in the game right now, regardless of which moveset, and deleting squishies? Theres plenty of better options if you want that in a defender(which is insane in and of itself but another topic). Like, if you want to delete squishies you need to run spoon double specs, and even then you need to be fully stacked and have level advantage, and at that point, why are you playing mime instead of something that can actually carry? Mime is honestly too squishy for its roles, power swap is mediocre at supporting(compare it to blissey, comfey, elde, hoopa cleff) and stuns on a tank are nothing new, pretty much all relevant tanks have better cc than mime... and damage wise its also heavily outclassed too. And thats before mentioning the fact that Slowbro can stack too, as can mamo, trevenant, lapras... mimes in a bad spot, and outside of comfort picks or dedication theres really no reason to play it tbh.
I found it so funny at 21:10 bc people in my solo queues are always attackers and 1 speedster and the cinderace and the absol are both at mid 😂
Liking this new style of more edited content, opens it up for newer people.
Part of me really wants to try and keep tabs on pokemon that need help so that some attempt can be made to try and get them the help they need to succeed. Of course, some need that more than others, but it is more to try and keep an eye on things and hope that eventually, we reach a point where any pokemon can be seen as a viable pick.
And really at this point, I can't think of any other pokemon that needs that help more than Crustle. As we near the 2nd anniversary with Mewtwo X getting ready to drop soon, I can't think of a time when Crustle was seen as "THE PICK." Everyone else has either been GOD TIER or sitting balanced around S-A-B, but Crustle always feels like it either claimed the C-Rank all for itself or is just the ambassador for D-Tier. If I could only pick one Pokemon that needs something to help it out, it's Crustle.
They shifted the game to be more brawling oriented with sustain but didn’t adjust the old mons as they should’ve
The 5 attacker solo q line hurts. So many times I run into this ...I finally learned to just bite the bullet and grab a defender. My win rate and enjoyment went up tremendously.
Yeah, whenever that happens, I usually choose Mamoswine or Trevenant
@@eeveeofalltrades4780 yeah I'll usually grab Lapras or Blastoise since I have them unlocked but really like playing Tree during the everyone's available weekend and Swine was a lot of fun at launch I've just had other things to buy. Really most of the defenders I can do an at least okay job with.
Tbh wiggly’s unite needs to be reworked because it sucks in its current state. The casting time so is long that by the time you can move the shield is gone. With everyone and their mom playing Sp. Attackers with slick spoon, the shield gets obliterated in seconds and as stated in the video Umbreon make the unite move useless. The only thing it’s good for in most situations is temp HP.
They should change the move to be an AoE around Wiggly that gives allies Unstoppable for a few seconds and Wiggly can instant cast and move during the unite. Either that or an AoE CC move so she has 1 more tool for harassing and creating space for her team.
I’ve been running spdef +50 emblems and assault vest focus band wigglytuff for a while. It has one of the highest sp.def stats in the game and works really well as a tank. Cute charm is great for running up on special attackers with sing, and letting your team dissolve them. Works great with slow smoke.
I think Mr. Mime is kinda underwhelming right now. I know people hated when it was meta but now I feel it's worse than the guard swap version. The most reliable build IMO is confusion+barrier but nothing too crazy. They should buff a bit both confusion and psychic damage or the support moves to do more, like barrier to actually avoid enemies to cross with dash moves and power swap to buff/heal allies a bit more.
Mr. Mime imo is at the perfect level of balance for the game. Anything stronger than Mime should be toned back and anything weaker should be buffed.
I have a strange feeling that if/when they buff absol they’ll give it true damage
The biggest problem with Snorlax right now is Umbreon, who completely negates Block with its abilities to dash through it with Foul Play and resist the stun with Snarl. He'll be in a much better place once Umbreon's pick rate drops to a reasonable number. Additionally, I believe there's still a place for true defenders in this game. It's just that CC and damage negation isn't as sexy as sustain and damage dealt.
Yeah, Umbreon has been rough for Mamo too. That CC circle thing just makes it hard to use abilities. I wish he could jump it like he jumps walls. I mostly try to stack/lvl over them and then switch lanes. But I finished pretty good as a Mamo main, more buffs will be cool tho.
Tsareena buffs please 🥺
Yeah, The Queen isn't even a queen anymore, considering how many little amount of people use her and succeed with her nowadays.
@@dragonquest6881It's not worth the effort you have to put in to make tsareena play well
Tsareena has one of the craziest mobility among all all-rounder
@@Dhananjay-011Mobility is worthless if you do tickle damage and are as tanky as a piece of paper.
No
Agreeing with your statement on full attacker games. Recently played a match of 4 attackers on each team, with a Crustle on the other team, and I was a slow bro
When I first played Tsereena (probs spelled it wrong) I somehow survived a 5 v 1 (it was a one time thing) I’ve never had that sort of thrill happen to me so She has a special place in my heart.
I'm not a simp so I don't like her. I wish she keeps being weakest in her class.
I'm just a casual player in ultra and Tsareena was my main since she dropped, such a fun playstyle. But, whist I could still deal great damage get MVP in matches, it wasn't enough to win progress upwards in solo queues. I talked with people in a Unite Discord i joined and ended up trying water bear as a sub, due to similar play styles and just naturally being a better unit rn. And this is looking much better, if I play it right I could even get masters by the end of the season
Hot take: Crustle's unique buff should be that it has the same shield capabilities similar to what it was before the scoring change happened.
4:43 he predicted the future bro u used future sight which was accurate
That Lucario named dev was on vacation I guess and now he is back 🗿
pov: being a tsareena main who somehow maintained her 65% win rate
4:02 I remember when tyranitar was this unstoppable monster against the waves and waves of squishy cinderace, talonflame, absol, you name it and I just mowed them down. Now, he just doesn’t feel as tanky as he used to.
21:10 I still remember the time on Pokémon Unite where literally everyone (except for me, I was a defender) was an attacker.
I’m a semi-casual player and i swear 3/4 of this list is just characters I like to play
Just wanted to say thanks for being the staple channel around all things Pokémon Unite! Your videos are always so helpful and entertaining!
Zeraora is still extremely valuable once you get it to level 9 but yeah I feel like the buff while somewhat minimal(as far as I'm aware) while make it shine a bit more
Hear me out but what if snorlax passive was change that it will stop piercing attacks like dragonite hyper beam won't pierce if it hits snorlax first
I used to main Wiggly. I miss it so much…
Ive always mained tsareena tbh, i love triple axel a lot and its honesty very good
Throughout my time playing as a crustle main, no changes would help it become significant in any meta. It feels like the game devs just forget the good ol' rock crab for long periods of time, and I'm sad. I work my way around it though with some funny tactics (If you know, you know what they are lol), and the way I play it it's pretty decent in solo q meta.
I love the rock crab if it means anything 😭
I run mostly doubles and have a 58% winrate with Crustle. I would say a number of things would help him become high teir, like shell smash giving him hindrance resistance similar to rapid spin, this would give him a niche where with focus band healing and a high hp build he can push and take out attackers running spoon since shell smash removes his defenses meaning spoon is effectively useless against Crustle. Alternatively giving his all attacks the ability to crit instead of just basic and X-Scissor while giving him 15% crit rate at level 9 (5% at level 4) would give him amazing damage on objectives and enemies, giving him a slight attack buff and making rock tomb faster would make him amazing at stopping retreats especially if they make it so you cant dash through rock tomb anymore unless you have Eject button or a move like fly
I really need Tsareenas Def and Sp. Def to be buffed all the way back up and revert the shield changes to her grassy glide move.
They can nerf her damage output somewhat on all of her moves and give her more def/sp Def and survivability.
She's already out of the limelight and practically unplayable with all these slick spoon eevee's, just let her be a high skill ceiling harasser without deleting people unless she has a nasty lead.
I can still 1v1 people with her but in a team fight against pokemon that just use AOE abilities I'm just constantly dead after 1 rotation of abilities.
20:56
CrisHeroes won’t be happy to hear about this…
Another pokemon I could see being on this list is Garchomp, even with the recent buffs Garchomp still feels wayyy under tuned, and a lot of it has to do with its universally slow cast and end time on moves making it hard to set up your boosted attacks without dying first, and the abundance of spoon users doesn't help it at all. It's pretty good at picking off backline squishies, but it's almost useless in a team fight because it's not particularly bulky and doesn't do a ton of burst damage until you have your boosted stacks up. It kind of just feels like a worse version of Machamp at this point
THANK YOU!
I can honestly even see an argument where Zeraora is more consistent honestly and kinda fulfills its job slightly better to carry even though they're very different roles
I feel like Garchomp's playstyle/kit holds it back a good bit in soloQ or competitive into current meta and seems a bit outclassed in its role. Late game carries I think might be struggling the most right now arguably overall, needing to reach level 9 powerspike. I feel like they get outpaced a bit and even outclassed arguably
I don't think it's bad necessarily but into current meta, kit/playstyle-wise, and in its role I think it's one of the ones that struggles a lot
In most 1v1 or 1v2 fights where it can stay close to the enemy Chomp will dominate normally but from experience if you try to dive into a team fight you just get deleted, it really needs better mobility i think, especially if it wants to maintain its boost counter. You can literally walk away from a chomp to disengage a fight and he can’t do anything back because lack of mobility.
as a greedent main it feels like hes not quite where he needs to be yet
I’ve had matches where I see a teammate pick Sableye and I think to myself “great this match is a wash”
Then the match ends and turns out Sableye scored like 400 for the win. Like “…dam”
I tend to try and do that with Sableye but for some reason my teammates always decide to start a fight in the opponents' base rather than just waiting for them in our own base to make use of the heal and the shield. Plus, after Sableye's damage nerf it can no longer survive on its own without the help of a teammate, which destroys the purpose of stealth
I started playing Pokemon Unite casually a few days ago and Crustle is absolutely crushing most teams. I've had games where Zapdos spawned while an enemy Cinderace was still not even a Raboot. Crustle is my perfect boi and I don't care how bad he might be competitively.
You are too little bro in PU make a try with urshifu as I urshifu main I can do 1v2 even in masters
LMAO at Duraludon looking like an inhaler cause I have asthma and now I can't unsee it
19:40 Nah we just need ash's pikachu with a whole other kit thats more of a powerhouse like he should with pikachu's actual z-move as his unite
The simplest balance change : Nerf the SUPER Tanky Defenders. They just don't die.
It's so frustrating to play against them in Veteran and Ultra levels.
I feel like greedent needs a buff after A YEAR of getting nerfed many times and only of one buff which was again, a year ago. It is the lowest pick rate Pokémon out of all Pokémon after all
Edit: This is the second least picked Pokémon, I checked, Tsareena is still taking the L
I think he has such a low pick rate because he's F-ing gross. 😂
Yeah they should revert all the greedent nerfs honestly, it wouldn't be as annoying as it was back then
@@marcelloi.8309 maybe they should give it a little buff
Controversial take but I want to see Greedent get some decent buffs like reduce the cooldown of covet and some QOL changes to bullet seed
Def controversial
I play greedent and I think it's perfectly fine but those are still cool buffs for greedent
Maybe greedent will get a buff in the next battlepass cuz its gonna get a skin
Nah fam. Greedent has definitely fallen off.
I main Greedent and I agree
Meanwhile me using absol: *kill zacian with pursuit*
13:52 "Umbreon is crustle"
Kingsammelot, probably
Wiggly is so fun to play but it needs its hp increased since its a support that plays like a defender
I like the idea of Crustle being a "hammer" character: A sturdy juggernaut capable of construction and demolition.
I've always had the idea to have shell smash give your attacks lifesteal - it'd flow well with X-Scissor and your unite move.
Either way, I'd like Crustle to get more love nowadays. Unless its that mega score shield thing it used to do.
Natural critical hit on crustle would be busted. 6% crit on it is strong with just scope lens so even 10% natural is tripling it’s critical hit rate
Wigglytuff main since day 1. My girl is overdue for a buff and the sing cooldown is just a small crumb. They have to revert back the amount of shields it gives on her ult.
I play Wigglytuff like a defender with Aeos Cookie, Slick Spoon, and Shell Bell. Battle item is potion for more sustainability.
No buddy barrier? I feel like it's a must on wiggly cause the shield of her unite is so weak. I've also mained her since day one and I hope the sing cooldown buff is not the only buff she will get
@@marcelloi.8309 Well, this build I have for Wiggly is kind of a selfish playstyle. Aeos Cookie for more health overtime when scoring, shell bell and potion for healing, then slick spoon and shell bell for damage.
But buddy barrier could probably replace either slick spoon or shell bell for more team coordinated fights.
you gonna do an updated list, would love to see if any new pokemon make it to the list lol
As a Crustle main, I hate that a ton of pokemons have a dash to counter my walls.
"Tyrantiar isnt that good"
The tryanitar out the my base not letting anything leave:😶🌫️
At least Zeraora buffs, my boys are in need on some kind of compensation, I'm sad I cannot use my favs because they are not as strong as the decent ones, that can keep up and deal with mewtwo kinda
I’m suprised he didint talk about talonflame. If you ask me I think it could use a buff either to damage or cooldown on fly
It's bugged
@@ze-prestooo how's it bugged?
@@ryebreaddesalsa8157 Its Fly is bugged. If you don't press the ability again after casting it and wait for some time, its cooldown will still be 10s since the game starts the countdown from the point of the 2nd activation, not the 1st one like we had previously
In one match I kept 1v1 an Umbreon, I was Dragapult and the other person had Wish and Mean Look, which meant I was slowly dealing damage to it before I won, and at the end that specific Umbreon suffered 120k damage
21:10 every unite 🤖player needs to hear this😫
Pika isn’t meant to be the star and do the dmg, he’s meant to stun/slow the enemy and set up kills. Not every Pokémon has to be a dmg machine
0:04 the fact that both of my mains are here is alarming
i've come to notice that most all the speedsters are failing not only because of the huge amounts of tanky pokemon but all the stuns. Gengar for example you are attacking a pikachu they are about to die and then they use thunder and you are stunned ruining your whole combo and leaving you to instantly die
Allow teammates to movr through rock tomb and crustle is fine
Heck, give those passing allies some defense boost
Not gonna talk about sableyes unite move? His knockup and confusion are nice, but you can't forget about his unite moves ability, which can be an absolute game changer
Last time I played this game was when Greedent was broken on drop. After coming back, I mainly play power swap tank mr mime. It’s fun still, but it’s very powercrept now. I’m hoping leavanny eventually comes to unite as well.
Left this series 10 seasons ago and Crustle is still here. Pain.
I hope the recent level adjustments make my boy Zeraora at least begin to rise up!
Edit: finished the video and I couldn't agree more on the Solo Q all attacker thing! I mostly play Speedsters with pocket Cinderace and Eldegoss. But when I'm matched with those I'm forced to carry as the only supporter/defender (Blastoise) and it is *unfun*
"can't be me everytime" really hit
as a Tserina main I STOP PLAYING FOR ONE YEAR AND COME BACK TO THIS
Its CRAZY to see this cuz i play Tsareena casually took my fav spot from Ninetails.
But i didnt know it was weak, i be ballin with her.
I think the worst Supporter right now is Sableye. It's extremely squishy now and deals zero damage too while being melee. It doesn't really do much anymore
It's damage is still okay and the cc obnoxious, what are u Talking about, play wiggly and then u realize how a bad mon and support looks like...
Greninja just needs more health. Even with leafeon you can take some chip damage and live. As the ninja you take any chip damage you die
I’ve played Tsareena since the start of the game and I’ll never play anybody else in competitive. Also I’ve survived many 5v1s with her thanks to her incredible stomp She always has my heart ❤
Personally, i still sometimes use Tsreena, and she honestly hasn't dropped TERRIBLY, because as long as she's got teamates with her, she can still be tanky, but since Zacian and Mewtwo ect. have arrived, yes shes dropped, but i must admit, she still can be pretty strong.
I'm totally out of the loop... What's happening to Duraludon?
As a person who recently picked up greninja and has been thoroughly enjoying it, I can verify that it NEEDS NEEDS NEEDS jungle to carry, and the difference between level 6 and level 7 is massive.
Also my 6k shield Crustle build can say that Crustle is very bulky, however its hard to pull off.
Idk, I played it in lane and it does fine especially with full stacks.
@@ze-prestooohis season I’ve been playing ninja in lane and stacking. I’ve played around 70 matches with ninja this season, all in lane, at a +70% win rate. I always feel like I have an advantage against the opponents with a Shuriken ninja. A buff would be awesome tho. Would definitely increase the win rate. #Have to edit. Just hopped on Unite to double check my games played and win rate with ninja. 50 games played. 67% win rate
Tsreena went from the Pokémon no body wanted to see on the enemy team to the Pokémon no one wants to see on their own
I would love Garchomp buffs.
Nah he is fine and I’m saying this as a Top Garchomp main.
He is Balanced
@justagameboy8811 Not even ground garchomp?
I honestly feel like the dragon build isn't too strong into current meta too right now honestly
@@lguy8476 The Dragon Move-set is bad The Ground Move-set is the way to go with garchomp right now.
However the Dragon Move set will never be good even if they were to buff it so yeah…
The Ground moves Increase your defense and while attacking you deal extra damage and Healing effects.
While Dragon is the stun build and Garchomp does not gain any bonuses with it.
There is no worst Pokemon you just need skills
I have been wanting Crustle to get crits back for so long. Crustle is my main and I used to feel like I could help my team in a reasonable way.
X-scissor can crit I run X-Scissor > Shell-Smash with Atk Weight, Focus Band, Razor Claw with brown and white crit emblems.
Gengars only viable build is via special specs for goals adding sp atk, after about 6-8 goals it can consistently 1 shot most pokemon outside of defenders
With Greninja I usually get around 20 ko but ppl will select him before i can sometimes and suck with him and it sucks
if they add Magikarp, it HAS to know bounce pls (as a reference)
I love how every defender that isn't Umbreon and Lapras simply does not exist
As a surf/hurricane cram main since S1, hanging around 850 global rank for cram, I would say it’d be difficult to buff this build. Maybe a fraction of a second of cooldown decrease or CC increase for hurricane should be enough.
Honestly I would like an increase in movement speed but it could make the dive build even more terrifying
Cram damage is great but it’s too squishy so it fell off the meta
Greedent was sweating there
One day my fave Electric Pokemon Zeraora will get some love. Grachomp really needed a buff for the longest time, but then they buffed him by speeding up his evos.
I can see the Tsareena fans copium, insisting their Tsareena carry them always.
i only play her in a duoq with exp share support, otherwise shes too hard to use. really bad until lvl 6 and without exp share and healing she cant do anything.
Greninja really need some good buffs
Agreed. Even something small
@@spragels thankyou for commenting on my comment
The umbreon part made me laugh so hard 😂
I just KNOW you were proud of that absol pun 😂
Ttar lost a lot when they stopped it’s United move from being able to crit. It was busted but removing it is a massive nerf. They should’ve boosted the damage a bit when they did this
maybe they can increase Tsareena heal and shield but lower her damage?
She could be someone who thrives in long skirmishes... instead of being a diver she could just be a disruptor maybe...
Or if not then give her huge bursts but weak sustain... I think either is good
Speaking of crustle, can you try attack weight, energy amp, and either buddy barrier or exp share.
Then pick stealth rock and either shell smash or rock tomb. And pair that with a cd reduction emblems and fluffy tail
This allows crustle to toss stealth rock onto the field often and, after activating energy amp and fluffy tail on a objective will make stealth rock output a lot of damage similar to pre-nerf duraldon.
This makes crustle a very bulky mage who can shred through your health bar when activating the unite move
