Garchomp is my main. He works so well when you’re able to get a couple kills early in the lane. The ability to solo things like Drednaw and Zapdos QUICKLY is extremely powerful. I can take down Drednaw solo while the other 4 on my team defend the lanes. It’s huge.
Yeah, Garchomp was perfectly captured in this game. From totally useless baby to Kaiju. Its annoying to go in teams with multiple attackers, as they always try to get the last hit and take the exp… Garchomp’s need for meat is very intensive, and such allies really slow you down.
Im the rare solo q teammate who lets my lane buddy get the exp if I see they are playing a mon that really needs it more than I do as the characters I typically have good early game anyways.
i get around this with Exp Share. Granted, it's definitely suboptimal to having charitable/sensible teammates, and takes up one good item slot that could have gone to Buddy Barrier or sth, BUT let's face facts: better to assume that pub is intrinsically selfish, than feed as a gabite. Exp share also gives passive speed, and so replace your Float Stone with it; once u get your Dig/Rush, that speed difference isn't going to hurt you as much. If I start the match and see that my team has a ton of hard carries, i usually yield the jungle to them, put on my Exp share, and go to top/bot. Either that, or bite my lip and switch to Slowbro. This. Is. Pub.
Dude I signaled to my teammates I was going central area cause I was playing Garchomp, this fucking Zeraora went to central start of the game anyways and killed the lilipup. He tried to steal Buffalaunt from me but I killed it last second with bulldoze and I swear he must’ve been raging cause he was staying there for a flat fucking 20 seconds until he went back into the game and left me alone. Fuck those players who try to snipe you
8:18 Just had a ranked game today where I killed a Zeraora while it was untargetable, Rough Skin was returning damage mid Wild Charge. Love this passive. I think it's about 25% of damage taken that's reflected by the way. Pretty huge on a speedster's health pool especially when Garchomp is also tearing into you and healing back.
Yup it was satisfying to look at zeraora kill himself when 1vs1 wild charge my garchop. Thats why when my opponent have zeraora, i build it earthquake not dragon claw
My first Garchomp game was also my most satisfying. The feeling of ALL of your enemies attacking Zapdos, oblivious to my presence, with all my teammates on respawn timers... The feeling of using the Dragon Rush-Dragon Claw combo on Zapdos and stealing the KO, completely crushing their morale... the feeling of winning purely because of my stealth. I know that you can use other Pokemon to steal Zapdos, but Garchomp was the first time I did that exact thing.
As for my Ranked Rank, I'm Expert Class 1. (Used to be Class 2 but I was horrible at Eldegoss at that time, BUT I'M NOT ANYMORE THANKS TO YOUR GUIDE VIDEO, and I'm coming back!)
Garchomp's a fake intermediate as much as charizard's a fake novice XD I'm starting to think these tags were assigned to describe how easy they are to pick-up-and-play, and not actually excel at. Cus, yea, rawr and smash is simple to understand. But nuances of big-brain All-Rounder play and planning isn't simple at all.
YEEEEEEESSSSSSS Garchomp BUILD Ive been waiting for this bro EFFFINNNN YESSSS 💪🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 bro keep killing fam fr you doin this better then anyone else NO CAP
Very nice, I actually go Dig + earthquake every time. I find it more meaningful in the mid game and earthquakes for the aoe damage and move speed slow.
@@spragels I love that you mentioned that each move has its benefits. Garchomp is my favourite Pokémon but it's hard to really say that either one of his choices has an obvious winner. My take on it is that Dig is good for people who want to dive and challenge you due to the invulnerability, higher damage and damage reduction upgrade, while Rush's distance helps you dive and maybe create picks by dragging somebody heavily out of position. Earthquake is great general AoE and for getting his basics online as fast as possible because he gets multiple different damage benefits when they are, while Claw again has pick potential. The three hits from the Rush/Claw combo are identical to the ones from Rush/Claw itself, including Claw's hits being able to crit, with the advantage that everybody swept up by Rush takes the Claw damage and it has this pretty cool animation of Garchomp and the swept up targets being airborne for a moment before he spikes them with the second claw attack, so the CC is slightly harder and enemies can't fall out of your Claw's second hit like they can do when you use it normally.
I usually run Garchomp with a rather offensive score-dependant set, using Attack Weight and Aeos Biscuit, as well as float stone. So score-quantity really matters for me, which is kinda hard sometimes. Especially for earlier game i like to use X attack to do some more damage if i have to fight. In terms of moves I prefer Dragon Rush and Quake, although I have to say that I haven't tried Dragon Claw yet.
It may not be the norm, but I run experience share, float rock, and scope lens. Spam basic attack which cries of critical damage WHILE being faster than anyone who can chase people away ON THEIR OWN SIDE (thanks to the speed x) Now you attack doing massive damage being the one who can be fast enough to either intimidate or kill.
In my opinion, x attack is best for garchomp, as in the beginning when it still is bad, you can help faint the enemies in your lane at the beginning. And in late game, it just shreds.
Video idea. Please. Explain to people what you are and (more importantly) what NOT to do when going top, bottom, and jungle. I am so tired of bad fundamentals. Please help!
Unfortunately, 90% of those players aren't going to look up videos to improve anyways. They are either kids to young to understand or people who just don't care enough anyways. Its best to find a group and climb that way honestly
I feel part of Garchomp's later on high level kit will be dig. I know at the moment it isn't anything special but part of the meta of this game rn is I-Frames. Dig gives I-Frames, and if someone has the game sense to see like a sludge bomb coming from Gengar or a gank or something. They can use Dig and utilize it to instead counter attack. Garchomp isn't really a character who runs away. Using Dig to dodge and attack and pressure the opponent might be a valod strategy later on. Ofc not yet.
I totally agree. The only issue I have with it is that if it touches anything that pops you right out so it’s a little hard to use depending on where your position but you can absolutely avoid attacks.
I tend to be drawn to all-rounder melee Pokemon, so I was naturally drawn to Garchomp. I just wish his unite move was better. It's literally hit or miss
spragels more meta than he even realises 1:44 CHALK. This acronym refers to a five Pokemon core consisting of Cresselia, Heatran, Amoonguss, Landorus-Therian, and Mega Kangaskhan
I run Muscle and Focus Band with Rocky helmet for a more long lasting Garchomp. The way i see it, id prefer my items to ALWAYS be helping instead of those niche situations. Buddy Barrier is awesome but its not helping till level 10. Also, adding to your point of struggling to chase, he even worse at retreating. The float stone doesnt add enough movement speed to make Garchomp fast enough to chase or run so i scrapped it. I ENCOURAGE you to hit me with my ability, Rocky helmet Focus band coming into play. That can save gibles life. Rocky helmet also adds HP to pair very nicely with the band. You could always chase by running double dashes but doing so would lose those combos both movesets like to do with their pair. As far as jungling is concerned i think youre absolutely right. However due to the simple fact that there are simply better Junglers, i would only Jungle if nobody else is, and if that were were the case i would have switched to a speedster. Bottom Lane is where he belongs and following that Logic the Dragon set is the favored set. But Gible can still struggle. In a solo lobby youre hoping that you have competent and supportive teammate. But if you climb that ladder with friends, especially one with Exp share, youll find Garchomp can really shine. Just let your team mate get the last hit on a wild pokemon to evolve if they need to. Also as you can expect this mon does not care for Sp attack damage and is completely countered by it. Youll be fine against one, but if majority of your opponents are running special your Garchomp WILL struggle. If Specials become overwhelmingly more popular he may need the Assault vest to perform. All in all great video.
I have started going garchomp in central lane. Using the sand attack to farm early to lvl 6. Let your team mates go two decent combos in lanes. I also go dig and dragon claw to avoid moving opponents out of teammates range etc
absolutely, but the prblm in pub is that teammates often don't give u that charity. As a garch main, my number one problem isnt usually with the enemy team - but ironically, with my own teammates who fight over jungle and steal last-hits.
I've tried a few games using slow smoke with Garchomp. I use it offensively to keep other Pokémon within reach so I can devour them. Seems good so far.
I actually like X Speed on Garchomp. Early game, as a Gible and Gabite, it helps you retreat from fights. As a Garchomp late game, it's great for chasing down enemies or just moving across the map.
I dont know about the buddy barrier much, but after i realise its only useful when your lv10 as garchomp. I just use muscle band, scope lens and focus band as my build.
VIDEO IDEA! There are many things that are poorly explained in the game, like what's that flame with the number on the profile? Or, what is "short time" for this game? You could make a short compilation of things like that, maybe.
Ugh, of all videos to be late to, the GARCHOMP one?! Sad. Good commentary, loved this one. I think the reason Garchomp has "turn on" feeling is because he is so linear, everything he does involves moving forward so he has to "stat check" in every fight Question of the video: Great 3, I'm a Garchomp one trick but not very good at surviving the early game which is a huge problem
Full heal is my only counter play To gengar, it only buy a couple of seconds but allow for an easy kill if you mess up his hex chain in the middle of your team
Can’t wait to try these tips out in game. The dig/earthquake combo doesn’t pack the punch I need late game like you mentioned, so I’ll def be trying out more dragon rush and claw!
Thanks a ton for these videos. I only have 5-6 pokemon unlocked so I rely on these videos to learn the other pokemon. Subbed and liked to get you paid! lol
ive been running float stone muscleband and scope lens with the x attac and earlier i popped my x attack went in my unite and won a 1v4 earlier today. moves were dragon rush n claw.
Only the problem with Garchomp is his unite move which is a bit hard in the beginning to master even after mastering Livid Outrage you sure do miss one attack always it is really hard to bit all the attack perfectly
As you may know, Garchomp can combo his Dragon Rush with his Dragon Claw. The combo can seem hard to perform at first, but while I was in the training mode I figured out that as you use Dragon Rush if you just MASH the Dragon Claw button you'll do the combo every time. Awwwww yeahh😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎👌
Still stuck in great 2. Nobody here runs support so I play eldegoss every game. Half the time I start out solo lane too. Last game my Ninetails was afk the first 7 minutes. Normally not one to just blame my team but when I'm the only one prioritizing dreadnaw or defending goals after we lose Zapdos. Not my fault.
some pple just wanna have fun haha and sadly, it's either u account for that and find other ways to enjoy the game, or play your favs and be okay with losing I do understd the feels when u have to be the big man and pick the supp (same as in dota; tho interestingly, in recent times dota has shifted to now everyone loving to play supp and no one wants to play carry lmao). Pple love zera, geng and cinder, so i often find myself shafted to Slowbro duty, but at least i love Slowbro :D There are days when i just get the hankering and wanna Garch at all costs, and times like that i put on Exp Share and assume (usually correctly) that at least 1 out of 4 players are going to be selfish and are never going to give u the space u need to farm. Sometimes it works out! The impt thing is to have fun :D **edit: for context, im in great 4. Just lucky, i'll sure, will prbly get knocked down tonight, ahaha
@@antiday I wouldn't play eldegoss if I didn't enjoy her. It's just nuts that anyone would see a healer all alone and not stop what they're doing. I seriously hope we get a role queue for season 2. In standard I don't mind the shenanigans, it's standard. Hell, last night I played ap eldegoss jungle and it was a hysterical stomp. Best game of my life! I despise people who go into ranked and don't take it seriously.
@@SquirtlePWN haha yea, i'd love for the game to have more dedicated supports too. Tho i prbly should be careful of what i wish for, if Blissey is rly coming to the game XD I've not given eldegoss a shot; prbly shld at some point. Right now im just too enamored with garch and slowbro. Am trying out crustle - tho so far my curiosity has been killing the crab :"D Ranked is truly an experience, haha. I'm still stuck at Great 4 and straining against that ceiling..!
@@antiday Yeah I got on a hot streak last night and went from great 2 to great 4 real quick. Tonight I get to Speedrun expert. I hope Blissey is a healer just to get some variety in the role.
I get the criticism on Gible and Gabite not being as awesome as their third evolution, however I believe his early game to be oddly dominant too Try going against a mid Zeraora or Gastly/Haunter in the early game, you're going to make them pay for invading your jungle for sure
Yeah, it's easy to underestimate Gible and pick a losing fight. Trying to challenge him as a melee Pokémon to steal his farm isn't a great idea as he's already fully stacked and he'll rip your health away thanks to current health damage. He's still weak because of slow movement speed, no fast stacking options and no gap closers so poking, ganking can be nasty, he's just more than capable of winning a slugfest even as a baby.
Muscle band, scope lens, float stone. Earthquake/dragon claw aoe vs single target, I prefer dragon rush over dig personally. I'm playing alot of gardevoir now though xD.
I've seen Dig and Equake a few times in this vid (skipped into it muted). I hope you recommend against both. They're meh. Dig is clunky and Equake is only better than the other because it gives an extra passive stack, a negligible difference.
Great video! What should I do if my teammates keep stealing my farm? There was a match where I was bottom with a Venusaur, and at some point I felt like he was straight up trolling me. He would follow me around, even on jungle, and always last hit the wild pokemon. That hurt me in a way that I simply couldn't level up. I got so fed up that I abandoned bottom lane, and went on to look for farm on the top lane. His wave clear is so weak early game that any attacker may last hit if they want.
hard truth right there. Gib/Gab is every bully's target.... and i don't just mean the bullies on the other team :""D Some days it just feels like your whole team is trying to take your farm, and either don't understd the point of a garchomp, or choose to ignore it I understd that an early Geng is impt, but a late Garch is MORE impt. Pubs dont seem to realize that a late semi-carry is merely a delayed gratification, but a late hard carry is an absolute liability - a responsibility that should be borne by the team AS a team.
i'm Dig+DragonClaw! I find that in pub matches where you have to look out for yourself and focus on staying alive until you level11, Dig is what's gonna help u juke hunters and survive. DR's probly better with a coordinated team of friends, but i'm a Dig lover (no pun intended) Dig+EQ is amazing. My opinion is that if the match is forcing you into a more defensive role/position, Dig+EQ is superior; but if the match is at a stage where it's (1) rewarding you for pushing an advantage, or (2) full of uncoordinated enemies who prefer to straggle, Dig+Claw is havoc.
The main problem i have when I play garchomp is absol players. They do whatever they can to steal any and all jungle exp that should be going to garchomp
Ima stick to earthquake I slay with earthquake I was getting chased by three opposing Pokémon all I had to do was dragon rush then earthquake then I spammed a and they all died and btw I had level 18 muscle band and level 7 focus band plus people I match up with tend to use zeraora and pikachu
Great video as always! Found your Unite content two days ago and watched all of them 🤣 keep it up you'll be at 10k soon! What days do you stream on twitch?
I main Garchomp since it’s my favorite Pokémon but can someone tell me how to counter Cinderace I tend to get focused down a lot and even when I’m with my team it feels really hard to get kills any advice? Like maybe I’m just bad but it just feels really hard to attack people in unite like idk I’m running buddy Barrier, Muscle band and float stone but it really feels like I do no damage compared to everyone else I just want to be a good Garchomp and get expert any tips would be awesome it’s also my first moba game
I main garchomp and have played 50+ games with him and have a 71% win rate. My most recent game I did 62% of the teams damage. Garchomp damage stacks over time, the more you can auto attack the more damage you will do. You gotta treat garchomp as a hit and run Pokemon you won't be one shotting anyone with his combos besides his unite move. Forget the kills for now and don't even think about going for kills in the first 2 minutes, power farm till gabite make a few ganks with the mobility of dig then farm farm until you reach garchomp, if things go your way you'll be higher level than everyone and can literally run down and Pokemon in the game.
I'm Ultra rank 4 and just can't seem to get more than 2 wins at a time... I fill as needed, try to do my job as best I can, not quite sure what the issue is but I'm hitting a pretty heavy wall.
Allies make a huge difference, unfortunately you can't 1 v 9 in this game, you just need a trash player and the game is gone, try to play with friends in vocal
totally agree that a garchomp either steamrolls the whole enemy team, or dies in 1v1's it should be winning
As a garchomp main i can confirm this😆
@@jasmijn-1419 As a garchomp main i can confirm there's no greater shame than losing a 1v1 duel to a zera/lucario
Garchomp you're either bullying the entire enemy team or getting mopped
I remember mowing down the whole team since the two Dragon moves are annoying CCs and Damage then sooner or later, loses when duels.
My first 5 streak KO is with garchomp. His unite move is insane when you hit all 5.
Garchomp is my main. He works so well when you’re able to get a couple kills early in the lane. The ability to solo things like Drednaw and Zapdos QUICKLY is extremely powerful. I can take down Drednaw solo while the other 4 on my team defend the lanes. It’s huge.
His style reminds me of old Wick from LoL or Ursa from Dota 2.
Yes. I can solo zapdos quickly
Fun fact: garchomp can combo with dragon claw and dragon rush! While your charging up your dragon rush u can use dragon claw to do more damage
Can't wait to see what our resident content cowboy came up with this time! Garchomp is such a fun pokemon haha, I bet this will be worth the wait
Thank you!
No problem, thank you for always putting up good quality vids!

Full heal is my only counter play To gengar, it only buy a couple of seconds but allow for an easy kill if you mess up his hex chain in the middle of your team
Or Wiggly ult. Or CC.
@@HighLanderPonyYT yeah but I main eldegoss so no CC for me :3
@@carolinemosher8486 Ult has a knockback, at least. : O
@@HighLanderPonyYT thats true haha !
Can’t wait to try these tips out in game. The dig/earthquake combo doesn’t pack the punch I need late game like you mentioned, so I’ll def be trying out more dragon rush and claw!
Dig dclaw is cool too
When the Pokemon receives a certain amount of damage, damage is dealt to nearby opposing Pokemon equal to 3/4/5% of those Pokemon's max HP.
Love the Hercules reference at the beginning
I rlly like Garchomp's dragon rush which helps me drag them out of their goal or drag them when they are running away
Great video +1 algorithm
First time viewer. Awesome video! Fun personality and informative content. Keep it up!
Spragels, you can actually combo dragon rush into dragon claw for some sort of spinning slash uppercut thing
Second like don't care and this guide is cool
haha thanks
Thanks a ton for these videos. I only have 5-6 pokemon unlocked so I rely on these videos to learn the other pokemon. Subbed and liked to get you paid! lol
I bought garchomp with and IDK his skills so I watch this he's my fav pokemon thanks for the guide
It's all fun until garchompe use his unite move.
Watched for real now! Nice guide!
i prefer you guys to use the muscle band scope lens and shell bell best combination
Because dragon rush shoves pokemon is it not a bad escape as well as dig because it’s bringing the Pokémon with you.
Appreciate you're hard work 👍🏾!
Hopefully you're thinking about your 10k subscriber video. I'm sure you'll hit this weekend at the rate you've been blowing up.
I truly have no clue my dude
@@spragels I'm sure you'll think of something. You're quite creative... congratulations on advance.
See... 10k just like that... All you needed was some Pokémon and Bobby Pantone. Congratulations!
Me: Goes to kill 3 players with half HP by LiVId Outrage
My friend: plz garchomp for one time don't clean sweep
Me: 3 players !
My friend: Zapdos!
ive been running float stone muscleband and scope lens with the x attac and earlier i popped my x attack went in my unite and won a 1v4 earlier today. moves were dragon rush n claw.
I saw that scope lens and muscle band and razor claw is good i saw in a vid
Only the problem with Garchomp is his unite move which is a bit hard in the beginning to master even after mastering Livid Outrage you sure do miss one attack always it is really hard to bit all the attack perfectly
After my very first match of Lucario,i alr bought garchomp,i wa gonna regret it but its unite move gets juicy K'OS!
11:05 that gengar got crushed😂😂😂
I think Garchomp is the Best Pokemon i Pokemon United, even without any Items. I JUST LOVE HIM! 😍
As you may know, Garchomp can combo his Dragon Rush with his Dragon Claw. The combo can seem hard to perform at first, but while I was in the training mode I figured out that as you use Dragon Rush if you just MASH the Dragon Claw button you'll do the combo every time. Awwwww yeahh😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎👌
Gosh Garchomp feels so hit and miss. He seems better when fighting melees because he can get kited so hard.
Also my rank is ultra
I agree he is pretty hit and miss
Still stuck in great 2. Nobody here runs support so I play eldegoss every game. Half the time I start out solo lane too. Last game my Ninetails was afk the first 7 minutes.
Normally not one to just blame my team but when I'm the only one prioritizing dreadnaw or defending goals after we lose Zapdos. Not my fault.
some pple just wanna have fun haha and sadly, it's either u account for that and find other ways to enjoy the game, or play your favs and be okay with losing
I do understd the feels when u have to be the big man and pick the supp (same as in dota; tho interestingly, in recent times dota has shifted to now everyone loving to play supp and no one wants to play carry lmao). Pple love zera, geng and cinder, so i often find myself shafted to Slowbro duty, but at least i love Slowbro :D
There are days when i just get the hankering and wanna Garch at all costs, and times like that i put on Exp Share and assume (usually correctly) that at least 1 out of 4 players are going to be selfish and are never going to give u the space u need to farm. Sometimes it works out! The impt thing is to have fun :D
**edit: for context, im in great 4. Just lucky, i'll sure, will prbly get knocked down tonight, ahaha
@@antiday I wouldn't play eldegoss if I didn't enjoy her. It's just nuts that anyone would see a healer all alone and not stop what they're doing. I seriously hope we get a role queue for season 2.
In standard I don't mind the shenanigans, it's standard. Hell, last night I played ap eldegoss jungle and it was a hysterical stomp. Best game of my life! I despise people who go into ranked and don't take it seriously.
@@SquirtlePWN haha yea, i'd love for the game to have more dedicated supports too. Tho i prbly should be careful of what i wish for, if Blissey is rly coming to the game XD
I've not given eldegoss a shot; prbly shld at some point. Right now im just too enamored with garch and slowbro. Am trying out crustle - tho so far my curiosity has been killing the crab :"D
Ranked is truly an experience, haha. I'm still stuck at Great 4 and straining against that ceiling..!
@@antiday Yeah I got on a hot streak last night and went from great 2 to great 4 real quick. Tonight I get to Speedrun expert. I hope Blissey is a healer just to get some variety in the role.
@@antiday Just saw SuperTeeds breakdown of BLissey's leaked moves and I'm saving my coins til launch.
Great video and hilarious 😂 thank you
I get the criticism on Gible and Gabite not being as awesome as their third evolution, however I believe his early game to be oddly dominant too
Try going against a mid Zeraora or Gastly/Haunter in the early game, you're going to make them pay for invading your jungle for sure
Yeah, it's easy to underestimate Gible and pick a losing fight. Trying to challenge him as a melee Pokémon to steal his farm isn't a great idea as he's already fully stacked and he'll rip your health away thanks to current health damage. He's still weak because of slow movement speed, no fast stacking options and no gap closers so poking, ganking can be nasty, he's just more than capable of winning a slugfest even as a baby.
Muscle band, scope lens, float stone. Earthquake/dragon claw aoe vs single target, I prefer dragon rush over dig personally. I'm playing alot of gardevoir now though xD.
I wanna get a garchomp cause it's damage is so muchhhhh. And btw my max streak is 21 with zera and it's the one that ruined my streak 😅
Great 2 with *** I think. I was higher, but had three games in a row that were uncoordinated bad losses.
I'll keep my shirt on in solidarity at the pool. Fun vid! :)
I use the dig for knock up, using dragon rush needs good positioning and i find i harder to use.
I've seen Dig and Equake a few times in this vid (skipped into it muted). I hope you recommend against both. They're meh. Dig is clunky and Equake is only better than the other because it gives an extra passive stack, a negligible difference.
Great video! What should I do if my teammates keep stealing my farm? There was a match where I was bottom with a Venusaur, and at some point I felt like he was straight up trolling me. He would follow me around, even on jungle, and always last hit the wild pokemon. That hurt me in a way that I simply couldn't level up. I got so fed up that I abandoned bottom lane, and went on to look for farm on the top lane. His wave clear is so weak early game that any attacker may last hit if they want.
Garchomp + Scope Lens = Deadly. You don't even need to spend time using skills, use them just to run away.
I love chomp because he can be in the face of the opponent and make things happen.
How does the attack speed boost decay?
my garchomp games are either 10+ kills and 150+ scored or 1-2 kills and less than 100 scored at there is no in between
Im subscribing that intro was funny
Hi
yeehaw
0:43 Before he's Garchomp, he's Garbage. Lul
Haha
hard truth right there. Gib/Gab is every bully's target.... and i don't just mean the bullies on the other team :""D Some days it just feels like your whole team is trying to take your farm, and either don't understd the point of a garchomp, or choose to ignore it
I understd that an early Geng is impt, but a late Garch is MORE impt. Pubs dont seem to realize that a late semi-carry is merely a delayed gratification, but a late hard carry is an absolute liability - a responsibility that should be borne by the team AS a team.
Score shield, razor claw and scope lens garchomp is op
I prefer Dig + EQ , most of the time I shove the enemies away from my range teammates with Dragon Rush + Dragon Claw combo
Yeah that is the problem with it for sure
i'm Dig+DragonClaw! I find that in pub matches where you have to look out for yourself and focus on staying alive until you level11, Dig is what's gonna help u juke hunters and survive. DR's probly better with a coordinated team of friends, but i'm a Dig lover (no pun intended)
Dig+EQ is amazing. My opinion is that if the match is forcing you into a more defensive role/position, Dig+EQ is superior; but if the match is at a stage where it's (1) rewarding you for pushing an advantage, or (2) full of uncoordinated enemies who prefer to straggle, Dig+Claw is havoc.
The main problem i have when I play garchomp is absol players. They do whatever they can to steal any and all jungle exp that should be going to garchomp
Subscribed!!
What I do with garchomp is just use the hp held items so it's even more harder to kill him
I just wanted to see if this Pokemon was strong. I know Gengar is stronger but just considering this just in case Gengar gets nerfed
I Will try marchomp seems pretty strong!
I just started this game and I am gonna pass great rank 😀..am learning garhomp and mastering it..But the randoms 😖
Great guide with good tips. When is it Mr. Mime’s time to shine though?
0:39 because his/she is a pseudoe 🗿🗿 gibile and gabite are terrible aswell in the normal game but when it ivolve it's a game changer
Great video but can we please get a Mr. Mime guide?
I agree that eject item is best but full heal is too important atm imo
Ima stick to earthquake I slay with earthquake I was getting chased by three opposing Pokémon all I had to do was dragon rush then earthquake then I spammed a and they all died and btw I had level 18 muscle band and level 7 focus band plus people I match up with tend to use zeraora and pikachu
Great video as always! Found your Unite content two days ago and watched all of them 🤣 keep it up you'll be at 10k soon!
What days do you stream on twitch?
I'm currently Expert 2, I'd love to buy Garchomp but I need a support.
Howdy
Expert 3🤠
I main Garchomp since it’s my favorite Pokémon but can someone tell me how to counter Cinderace I tend to get focused down a lot and even when I’m with my team it feels really hard to get kills any advice? Like maybe I’m just bad but it just feels really hard to attack people in unite like idk I’m running buddy Barrier, Muscle band and float stone but it really feels like I do no damage compared to everyone else I just want to be a good Garchomp and get expert any tips would be awesome it’s also my first moba game
I main garchomp and have played 50+ games with him and have a 71% win rate. My most recent game I did 62% of the teams damage. Garchomp damage stacks over time, the more you can auto attack the more damage you will do. You gotta treat garchomp as a hit and run Pokemon you won't be one shotting anyone with his combos besides his unite move. Forget the kills for now and don't even think about going for kills in the first 2 minutes, power farm till gabite make a few ganks with the mobility of dig then farm farm until you reach garchomp, if things go your way you'll be higher level than everyone and can literally run down and Pokemon in the game.
@@dylanzchen okay I’ll try that now
@@dylanzchen do I have to use dig or can I use dragon rush?
@@dylanzchen what items do you run?
I like your pokemon unite videos.
I'm Ultra rank 4 and just can't seem to get more than 2 wins at a time... I fill as needed, try to do my job as best I can, not quite sure what the issue is but I'm hitting a pretty heavy wall.
Allies make a huge difference, unfortunately you can't 1 v 9 in this game, you just need a trash player and the game is gone, try to play with friends in vocal
