I love machamp, my favorite all rounder. I didn’t see you mention though, early game, don’t sleep on bulk up it makes you unstoppable, gives you a movespeed buff, and more importantly, increases your attack, so if you do Bulk Up -> boosted -> karate chop you do a lot of damage early. Also, level 13 Close Combat upgrade increases the damage done to enemies who have recently been debuffed (i.e. after dynamic punch), so even more important to combo that.
Does CC+ work with Dynamic Punch? Based on the text, I would assume slow/stun don't give the extra damage, only "real" status effects like poison or burn or what have you. That's the way it works with Hex which is written very similarly.
I was hoping you would have an Anakin Skywalker youngling moment with the doggo pup. "I'm petting it. Now I'm comboing it." The Cram moment was amazing.
your ability to communicate is top of S tier and is the reason you are so good at this and good for the growth of the game. thank you for doing so much for a game that I and a lot of other people have absolutely fallen in love with!
THANK YOU! I've been messing around with champ and haven't understood everything. This has helped so much. I'm so close to 1800 and every bit of advice helps!
Well done Cowboy. These kinds of videos are so helpful to me. I really appreciate the breakdown and straight to the point delivery. You do this because of this. We all appreciate not just the video but the time and effort in making it. Thanks Jake. You rock.
I quit playing a long time ago, but Machamp was 100% my main and favorite to play. Glad to see he still kicks ass. Got no interest in playing the game myself as of now though. (I feel the game lacks in so many areas)
In my machamp build I go for razor claw instead of muscle band. And also once your Close Combat gets upgraded it's much better to use it immediately after hitting your dynamic punch so it can benefit from the damage increase vs. CCed enemies.
Oh! Now this is a great video. Love the extra content detail of the pokemon. Can you do Aegislash next?! I’m trying to learn his play style Alittle better and figuring out this best items for him still. Thanks. Love the videos as always
howdy jake. as a former talonflame main - now machamp main, I almost exclusively play cross chop just for the mobility. I try to poke at enemies until I can secure a KO rather than just commit to the dive with close combat. I also run razor claw and energy amp, I think machamp is the best user of both of these items with the way its basic attack interacts with bulk up / dynamic punch, and how activating the unite allows you to keep fighting as normal before firing off the final unite move blow. my third item changes a lot but muscle band / buddy barrier / attack weight are all obviously amazing. even just score shield for solo queue is really helpful!
I love the fact that due to majority of people bloodthirsty for jungle farm, I have never saw a Lillipup surviveblong enough and evolve in a match. Such a groundbreaking moment, thank you, cowboy.
These kind of videos are amazing! I've recently got into unite and getting a better understanding of how pokemon play is vital. Keep up the good work man! Definitely appreciate it
Hey Jake! I know Azumarill is in a weird position rn, but I would love to see more Azumarill content:) I'm sure you can come up with something. I feel like a lot of people underrate it or say it sucks, and it deserves way more credit tbh
Something else to note is that in the first phase of your unite, your attack and movement are buffed by 30%, and your defense and sp defense go up by 200 each. So you can unite, do the dynamic punch combo (as if you had x attack) and still do the barrage blow from your unite. It’s a good way to get more mileage out of it and basically equals two unites worth of damage.
I've always been a Dynamic Punch/Cross Chop build person ever since the start of the game. Right now I do a crit build with Weakness Policy, Razor Claw, and Scope Lens. I was thinking of using X-Attack as well, I usually run a Full Heal to get out of stuns and sleep. I was considering swapping to Close Combat though, I'll definitely rework my items with it. One thing to not sleep on with Cross Chop though is the movement you have. I've never felt I needed an eject button with Machamp because Dynamic and Cross get me away very quickly. They also let me get back to lane a few seconds faster before jump pads are up.
@@JC-cv3up is submission that bad? I mean I run a critical build with scope lens, razor claw and focus band/muscle band and I really crit a lot. Using submission gives even more crit chance for a lot of damage. But yeah it's really good to see different builds. This build is pretty strong too
Machamp activating Unite, then using Dynamic punch gives him an incredible attack and speed boost. Another good tip for this mon is to activate its Unite move in a bush, so that way enemies are less likely to see you and kite around your attack.
That was a great job of machamp fisting that hoopas hole, those two machamps fisting each other while face to face was also impressive. I have indeed learned the combo of Dynamic fist into many fists
My favourite machamp build is, full on damage with Razor Claw, Scope Lens, Attack Weight, does insane damage and really carries when it’s towards the end of the game Dynamic Punch along with Cross Chop for great escapes and with the Cross Chop at level 13 increasing you ATK Power with every hit to 40 stacks is great fun pumping numbers
This is the exact build I used before this came out on Machamp. I tend to go bottom when u recognize there is a better duo top laner I remember doing stacks and I angered many of the enemies as I became over the level of both Junglers and evading the Electro-Tackle Pikachu and Ice-Horse Power Mamoswine. This included a Flash-Claw Fridge and Surf-Hurricane Cramorant on 2 different match and it was fun.
As a machamp main I prefer weakness policy, attack weight, and score shield when playing dynamic punch close combat (which is my preferred build). I highly recommend this build if you are looking for a one-shot build.
Loving this! Definitely have not been using machamp to its full potential. Just had an incredible first game with this build. I had always used cross chop before.
Personally, I love using this combo: Basic Attacks until the enemy has a certain amount of HP/I have teammates I know I can rely on -> Dynamic Punch -> Close Combat I've found that, while objectively you do more damage using Jake's combo, in the almost 400 battles I've fought with Machamp, real players most likely will retreat when receiving a huge amount of damage at first. I like to hold off using Close Combat till the end to truly secure that KO; it's riskier because you're putting yourself out there, but I use Muscle Band to make sure I live through those interactions, and it's far less predictable which is something you need to not have them use certain dodging moves. But I'm not here to say I'm better than Jake, and I love this video either way; we need more love for Machamp 🤗❤️
I'm so glad I discovered your videos. I've been playing Machamp for awhile now, but I wasn't getting any great results. Tried your build in a match just now and things will never be the same anymore. Edit: btw, when you said "hey hoopa" it triggered my google assistant
love the videos Jake! Wish I could justify buying the machamp skin... but with a newborn 40 bucks is a box of diapers, so I'm glad I can at least watch someone play it! YEEHAW
Thanks! I think this build is pretty consistent if you get at least 3 stacks of attack weight and combine with the burst of xattack and the correct order of moves as spragels explained in the beginning of the video. I reached 2100 points in master using these knowledges of Machamp.
I've been playing some machamp recently and have been running dynamic punch and cross chop so it was great you did this showcase so I can do even more damage!
Yeeeeeehaw! My two latest matches with Machamp is some of the most insane clutch matches I've ever got... Stealing Zapdos with his ulti AND not letting them steal it...!!!
thank you for the tips on how the move combos work! it would be great if you could go through every pokemon and teach us how to combo their moves please 🙏
Tbh I don't like stacking items (especially without score shield but that's just me though). Is Razor claw a viable option instead of Attack weight ? I know the damage output would be lower but I'm thinking about the slow from the boosted auto-attack after Dynamicpunch so that the enemies can't move that much to avoid Close combat. I guess they can use Eject button/X Speed/Full heal/a dash or something like that to avoid it but it usually is a longer cooldown than Machamp's combo.
Just to add something to probably think about: If you don't need to auto a lot... What about switching muscleband to claw? Makes your empowered punsh duRing the combo deal even more damage AND slows the opponent even more when you try to ultimate after it
Personally I've been using Muscle Band, Focus Band, and Razor Claw. Gives Machamp a real power boost with it's normal attacks which I think it kinda lacks I think
Hey jake! I’m a new subscriber and I’ve been loving your videos!! I’m a cinderace main, do you think having an attack weight would be a good item for them?
@@brandyl1090 no problem.I run cinderace with max damage items razor,scope and muscle.You can replace one of those with buddy barrier but never replace muscle band,especially if you use blaze kick.

@@spragels Yay! ^-^
Machamp can be quite nuts if you know how to play him correctly. The boosts Dynamic Punch provides lets you do pretty impressive amounts of damage
Awesome video! LOL that Cram troll you hard popping that unite
That Cram play was a masterful bait, but the fact that you can enjoy it still is what makes you fun to watch. You don’t get needlessly salty.

this is gold . play the last minute of the video in 0.5 speed , he sounds like if he is drunk hahahaha. Sorry i didnt sleep well . Love you Spragels
As a Machamp main, this video makes me so happy ❤️
as a fellow Machamp main, totally agree!
Not a Machamp main here but I love playing him, I'm definitely going to try this combo

you can also use eject during dynamic punch, or during machamp ult to land the final ht
I love it, but there's nothing like seeing the fear in my enemy's eyes while chasing them down with Submission and suplexing them into the GROUND!
Ikr. Like you think you can run from machamp
True it’s really satisfying
Really wish submission was a legit build. Love it when I use it on enemies.

Man thank you never really play this guy vs Lucario but I didn't know dynamic punch gave that much of a boost!!
Thanks for this, i was playing a match with machamp and got MVP and 22 kills
13:32 that Pikachu used volt tackle to attack u but Hoopa said '' no pika ! Retreat ... ''😂
In my head, at 3:00, there were lot of Spragels' "that's a staaaack"
That combo is so helpful. Great video!

Muscle band and razor claw is good too. I've been switching between razor claw, score shield and attack weight depending on team composition.
