I've been trying to prevent my dumb mistakes and watching you play and implementing your commentating skills into my own play helped me go from 22000 to 5000 on ladder in one sitting. Thanks a ton Aaron!
!!!! This vid makes me rly happy! I brought an iron treads team to the knoxville regional and didnt do too hot but it feels really validating to know that iron tread has the potential to make it to top 64! Half of my team even had the same members with iron treads, iron hands and gyrados! Seeing you play the team and giving feedback throughout the video game me some ideas and inspiration to improve my team from back then. Keep up the great content Aaron!
QOTD: I like Iron Bundle personally. I've been hoping for an evolution or something for Delibird since Gen 2 and I'm so glad the penguin is having its time in the spotlight!
Slither wings & Iron Moth my favorite paradox mons, especially slither wing. I'm a HUGE fan of Volcarona and I try to use it on almost all my comp teams
Thank you for editing other background music in! While I could most definitely listen to the Team Star theme for 6 hours straight some variety is nice!
Fr, its very nice. The idea of tech finding itself out of time and having to wait to get back... Wait. And WAIT. Reminds me of finding a certain Androids head in the Desert hehe
QOTD: I like Iron Moth mainly because I like the idea of Poison/Fire offensively, and I think it works well at it. My favorite has to be Iron Hands though because it takes a very nice new spin on fake out support alongside things like belly drum or Assault Vest
@Matt Tidd I like it! And very cool team! I enjoyed seeing both you play it at regionals, and Aaron doing some ladder with it, great to see treads get some love
Excellent set of games, Cybertron. 5-0. Keep up the great work. Hopefully, in your next video, you can go number one in the world for the ranked ladder 😀.
QOTD: I love iron valiant, and i feel like with the ruin pokemon coming in it might have a strong place in the metagame soon since it has such good typing into them
Hello Cybertron, I love learning from watching you play. I see you compete at the top level, and I hope to understand how to play this game skillfully from your expertise. I really appreciate your time and the efforts put into sharing your videos. I think you are a very kind person and also very entertaining. Thanks a lot for your help.
QOTD: Design wise I love Sandy Shocks, the way it walks is super goofy and I like how the tera hat rotates like crazy during battle. But competitively it's Iron Bundle, Encore + Icy Wind from something functionally faster than Regieleki is insane
I'm curious that one one pointed out how it's Aaron "Cybertron" Zheng here and he's back with another episode of Road to Ranked where he climbs the online series 2 VGC ladder in Scarlet and Violet and provides live commentary as he goes. Shocking!
QOTD: Always been a Donphan-Fan, ever since Power of One, so Tusk is a dream come true and its so versatile! However... UngaBunguss, aka Brute Bonnet. SO funny and lovable
I feel like Gyarados would be a pretty big threat with Tera. Just sucks to see that the second Intimidate is back on the menu, Bundle is out single handedly killing his usage :/
Brute bonnet is my favorite paradox pokemon just because it has such a fun moveset. Spore AND rage powder AND sucker punch AND strong stab attacks? Your opponent has to cover for so much. Also I'm bored of amoongus and it's nice to have a fresh take on the pokemon.
I’m extremely curious about that Psychic-Tera Tyranitar from game one. Like, if you want a fighting resist with a super-effective Tera Blast wouldn’t it be better to run flying to get the extra immunity to ground…? I guess if you’re worried about electric from Hands…?
hey! this isn't really feedback but for the QOTD it'd be nice if you could also answer the questions. would be pretty interested to know your opinions as well :)
you could try gholdengo, tinkaton is one of the few pokemon to be able to use helping hand into gholdengo thanks to its mould breaker ability, so a helping hand + make it rain combo would do a lot
