Every game has metas where the "easy" character gets accidentally (or intentionally) overtuned. But Unite is the only game where that overtuned character quite literally has to press 1 button for 1 frame that the person is on screen to deliver as much damage automatically as some of the most precise characters in the game. *Multiple times* this mon has been buffed to be able to do this. It's kind of insane.

What I think they should do is with the exception of a few things, they should roll over some fashion items to be available to purchase with these tickets. They’re constantly updating with new clothing and holo wear anyway. Why not give us easier access to the old stuff. It doesn’t even have to be all the time. Make it rotate so it always different. Like how they rotate discounts on certain licenses. And as for the exception the really nice stuff like the fully animated holo wear and the outfits that pair with it can remain as they are so Unite can still have the excuse of them wanting people to spend money.

it's actually painful to get those people as teammates, *_BUT!_* Rewarding their lack of skill with easy-win pokemon is not the answer. Obviously the devs don't want to consider the necessary solution (forcing those players to stick to standard until they get better + actually educating them in-game) but on top of that they keep nerfing pokemon that high-skill players make better than they're "supposed" to be (like cramorant). We need to get better at pressuring TiMi and the Pokemon Company. Until that happens there will be no real fixes.

In terms of all of the Eeveelutions in the game currently share a set of traits which makes them exceptionally meta-resistant (a.k.a. they are always viable) and safe low-risk picks: - their moves have mid to low cooldowns, making their moves highly spammable and forgiving if you happen to misuse or mistime a move, which makes it so they require very low commitment into fights and they can simply overwhelm you with the sheer volley of burst they can spam with their moves available, making it so their aggression has very little if any down time and they can keep the offense restlessly - their movesets have multiple mobility options, making them very nimble in-combat and out of combat, thus giving them a lot of safety in that they can scurry away and survive even the most dire situations and with the worst positioning imaginable - their movesets consist of mostly generously ranged and wide aoe moves and point-n-click moves, requiring very little aiming skillshots or timing moves with delays or durations, again making them very forgiving and easy to use - All of these accumulate to Eeveelutions being very safe picks that spike early into the game / they don't fall off lategame and stay consistently powerful through out the game / their movesets require low commitment with low-risk-high-reward moves and move combos / they are very incredibly efficient even with subpar skill

Power creep and nerfs left Lucario in its current state, which isn't bad but it's not what it used to be and not may players know how to use it. It was a completely different meta that Lucario used to dominate, and complaints were justified. Now, meta Pokémon don't require skill at all to dominate so it makes you think Lucario's case was an exaggeration but no.

At least Pika doesn't practically 1 shot the dirty bird, but he is still tough to deal with as Dodrio. The same goes for a lot of speedsters. Slows and stuns are their kryptonite. And let me tell you about the number of times that Umbreon has mean looked me mid unite as Dodrio . . . wtf, I'm screaming across the enemy team, getting knock ups, sometimes it's on the return drill peck, causing tons of chaos, and suddenly, full stop . . . and I'm dead.

The real thing about Glaceon is that people seem to forget there was a period it actually wasn’t busted. Post Mew/Mime Era it had good nerfs where they didn’t cripple Icicle Spear, but it wasn’t as strong either. Then came the Eevee festival, and TiMi buffed Glaceon back to normal, they made Espeon a Ko’ing machine with Psyshock. I to this day still don’t get why AFTER THAT, TiMi faced the basic attack speed buff to Glaceon, when there’s already kits made for that. A lot of people complain about Umbreon (rightfully I suppose), but Glaceon shouldn’t be shredding my Goodra with over 1500 -2000 bonus HP+ Muddy Water. (And yes I do believe Goodra need some small nerfs too, but it says a lot when not even Goodra or Slowbro can handle it)

Easy fix for these kinds of things is make it more rewarding at closer range and make the drop off at range feel important. At long range you should get a bonus for free-aim snipes. Decidueye is literally the posterchild for this theory, with Spirit Shackle and his passive. Halve all damage outside of a certain range, and make crits only possible within auto attack range, and all glaceon’s bs feels less annoying because now glaceon has to get closer to maximize her damage potential, which may require her passive.
@ElecManEXE
@ElecManEXE 5 месяцев назад
Not only are they simple A press sure hit moves, but they also give you full mobility on top of that. The fact that Glaceon can just click Icicle Spear and then continue moving completely freely, avoiding potential counterattacks with ease while outputting crazy damage is what really pushes it over the top for me. Same with Mewtwo, same with Intellion liquidation, ECT. If I play a melee Pokemon I gotta stop every single time I attack. Every attack I make is a chance for the opponent to counter attack me or get a better position or kite away. But these simple sure-hit mons get to skate around the battlefield pumping out damage without any opportunity cost to their attacks. Mewtwo Y being one of the worst because even basic attacks are free. I feel like there should be a movement penalty on such attacks at the very least. Or they just need to do way less damage, you get your silly mobility but you pay for it with damage output.

Gosh I can’t believe there are really mons in this game that don’t get their 2nd move until level 9 :( I joined during the Eevee Festival and stuck with playing them, so the eevees are my baseline of how powerful/good pokemon are “supposed” to be in the game. There are so many mons when I was starting out, that my reaction to them was something like, “yeah no way am I waiting 3+ more levels to fully evolve than I’m used to?? Wtf?? I am barely even OK with waiting 1 more level to evolve . . .” Which I mean I’m more flexible *now* but it just sounds like so many mons need a lot of help like what many starters have gotten recently. It’d be pretty nice if “the best speedster in the game” as I’ve sometimes heard Zoroark considered, did more damage than a sure hit attacker, too ‘|D

1.)The first two things you mentioned at first should be fixed by the developers. What's the point of having Holowear Tickets and Fashion Tickets gimmick when it is not updated. 2.)I don't like the Prize Machine gimmick. Only during big events with 10 daily balls it is useful. I prefer Energy Rewards more. 3.)For me, its not Glaceon Problem but rather Glaceon In The Matrix is when pokemon powerful in the early game and getting even more powerful late game with minimal expertise to begin with. This make people tend to use effortless and required less skill pokemon with massive output/high reward rather than high skill ceiling pokemon with the similar outcome. Why burden yourself playing with high difficulty pokemon when you have easier to use pokemon where it got the same level of power right? Thanks for bring this issue to the forefront Jake. They need to address this so they make the game more balance and every pokemon with different skill ceiling worth the play and worth the outcome.

Feels skewed to compare damage output of Zoroak and Glaceon, when Glaceon is ranged attack and therefore supposed to be high attack, and Zoroak is speedster so is supposed to be high mobility. Glaceon is supposed to do more damage. Zoroak has higher def and sp.def, making it slightly less squishy. Additionally, you're comparing how hard it is to play these two Pokémon when one is labelled "intermediate" and one is labelled "expert". Of course glaceon is going to be easier. I agree with some points though, and I definitely think glaceon should be labelled "novice" for all the sure-hit moves. Icicle Spear is hard to stack up until you unlock ice shard at level 6, so you don't really become OP until level 6. It is wild that icicle Spear can go so far, however the caveat is you have to be in range to lock on in the first place. Then, you can go as far as you like and the icicles still hit, (rip any Pokémon running away) but it isn't like you can lock on from any exceptional distance that other ranged attackers don't have. I think it would have been better to highlight the glaceon problem by comparing it to other ranged attackers, like Pikachu or cinderace or cramorant. Otherwise it feels like comparing Espeon to Snorlax and saying "snorlax has more health, unfair to Espeon players"??

This has been my sentiment about the game for years! Low skill + high reward should not exist! Otherwise there's no incentive to play the riskier characters if the easier ones yield the same results like you said. You pretty much just covered what I've been thinking. Having easy-to-use Pokemon isn't a bad thing, but they shouldn't warrant the same amount of damage (sometimes more) than those who are not. Low skill + low reward is how it should be. That doesn't mean they have to be awful, but they shouldn't be too safe of an option. The risk in playing these Pokemon should be that while they're easy to maneuver, they might not have as much AOE, CC, damage etc as their counterparts. Thanks Spragels! :)

I completely agree. As far as damage dealers go, I think for the health of the game Glaceon, Liquidation, Pikachu, Auto attack focused move builds should never be allowed to be close to meta. It's nice for new players to have something easy but those characters should never get the same value as a Mew, or Zoro, or E-speed Lucario
@KnakuanaRka
@KnakuanaRka 2 месяца назад
So in a nutshell, the problem isn’t that Glaceon is easy to use or peaks early, it’s that it can deal the same kind of damage as more complex mons like Zoroark or slower-to-peak ones like Tyranitar with way less effort, meaning the other mons don’t have the upside or great payoff they should.

if you dont mind i wanna add to this point by sharing a build ive taken to the top of ladder with the new patch Sylveon with hypervoice is troll. Mystic fire draining kiss, with wise glasses, choice specs, and shell bell. still take potion. Your passive gives you extra tankyness already, so with this build, you outheal most assasin burst dps without ever having to use skill. Arguably the most toxic trade pattern in the entire game. engage with mystic fire and begin to auto at level 4. your damage spike is so big if you hit level 4 first you win lane by yourself. if you are loosing the trade, use your third auto to run from danger. if you win, use the third auto to chase them and land a kill. you never have to back with this build, you passively full heal off of camps, so once you are ahead, never not be farming. steal the entire game until even at base they can't kill you. if you get low and have ult. you can pop potion mid ult within invunerability. the snowball effect of this playstyle is insane. their only weakness is characters that can stay out of their range even with sylveon's dashes. the recent sylveon buff made this build TURBO BROKEN

Completely agreed, glaceon needs a cc cancel action like they do with liquidation in inteleon. An unbleaqueble and uncanceleable attack in this game its so hard to counterback because we dont have so much defenders in the game or a pokemon who can stop this attacks. i always think snorlax shield can be reworked to stop this kind of attacks with a resistence bar (stoppin enemy bullets until this breaks)

Totally agree on every point made here, esp those tickets for free to play gamers to get more enjoyment from the game. A skill issue problem will arise if the more skill based = stronger pokemon, but that would still contribute to the game's growth in the long run. It would be bringing the overall skill level of players that stay a notch higher, making them choose either to master pokemon based on what they can do well with vs just playing what wins in the current meta, even if they dont take the time to learn it properly 😅

Blaziken literally has no access to half of his dmg without changing styles with his unite. Also blaziken doesn't evolve at lvl 4. Finally Azumarill is actually a strong early game laner that falls off late game(unlike eeveelutions). Eeveelutions have far stronger lvl 4 powerspikes and do not require lvl 8 unites at all.

I feel like glaceon also emphasizes the issue that a lot of the melees are just heavily outclassed even despite their good kits (buzzwole). With melees you have to do so much more to do ANYTHING compared to attackers. Not only do attackers have slick spoon, they also have range and mobility moves of all things (I hate stored power espeon). All-rounders aren't weak right now, but the CC certainly makes it hard and what better way to not deal with CC than to never get close in the first place, am I right? Maybe it's just a skill issue on my part, but playing all-rounders when attackers can just... do that, is not fun.

They should really work on making the health pools bigger than it is right now. Everyone just peels anything so fast. Categorize all rounders to unit with +damage -bulk and +bulk -damage just like how attackers are distinguishable with auto attack based and skill based units. With bigger health pool and bulky units actually doing their purpose, wouldnt it be better for the game and the competitive scene to have longer fights instead of just bursting each other?
@Zolrain

It being a MOBA on a controller is the biggest issue imo. The fact they have to make mons like Glaceon easy like this to play is due to the limitation and frustration controller does for this game. Which is crazy to say since SMITE technically does it but because it's a different perspective than it being top down it works. Here imagine if you try to make Glaceon have to AIM those icicle spears at the enemy to get all the hits in? It'd be an absolute nightmare with how bad trying to aim in this game is. With mouse I feel there would be more freedom to tone down these mons and have them actually aim their skill shots rather than make them pretty much auto aim or lock on.

Glaceon (and the rest of them) have two modes in it's movesets: shotgun and machine gun. And none of them are that hard to outplay... Shotgun: gives a little dash but still requires aiming and to be semi close to the opponent (close but not to close to melee range) to deal damage = Icy Wind + Freeze Dry Machine gun: gives mobility and autofire that allows to either escape a dire situation or reposition to continue fighting = Icicle Spear + Ice Shard So... guess people haven't learned to play around "Iced eevee" and the other eeveelutions in months, boy oh boy.

They need to increase the SpAtk utilization on Spear but then give it drastic falloff. This makes Freeze-Dry more viable to pair with Icicle Spear and fixes the range issue at the same time. It allows her to maintain the high damage she's meant to do at the cost of her own safety and make the most of that inbuilt 12.5% spellvamp. Then, we might see more Shedinja Doll play on both sides. Either way, Spear needs some kind of counterbuff to the range nerf or it'll go from OP to dogshit overnight.
