Enjoying your RTA vids as usual both the fortunate and unfortunate moments. I feel like every new RTA season is slightly worse than the last, but this season just hits different. I honestly feel like this one is MASSIVELY worse than the last. There are way too many hard to deal characters in the meta. Every single match I feel like I need to change pre bans. At the minimum just like you mentioned in your last video we really need more pre bans above master. Last season I hit my peak rank being champion and even got to point where I was facing emperors and holding my own. This season I dont think Im making it that far. There is just too much dude and its gonna get worse with the massive balance patch.
Yeah, there comes a point where too much diversity becomes a detriment. The analogy I like to make is with card games like YGO. In "Tier 0" formats where only one deck is dominant, it is actually very easy to counter play the opponent. You know what to expect every time. However, in super diverse formats where tons of rogue decks are viable, it becomes incredibly annoying to balance your own deck to compete against everything else. It's just not possible. Another way to think about it is like playing Rock, Paper, Scissors, but with five additional options. Good luck getting a favorable matchup.
I've been watching you for a long time now, and with your game play style, you may need to have versatile first bans Switch up from when you have first pick and when you dont.
Guaranteed crit does not bypass elemental disadvantage. Element disadvantage reduces your chance to hit to 50%. Flan and other guaranteed crit characters only crits if they successfully hit which they won't it they miss.
i am in champ also 2400 points but bro my win rate hard dropped from like 60 to 52% just because of this flan nonesense like i love the hero but like she is tooo annoying to deal with
Hey man, I'm a new player so I might be completely wrong. Isn't Belian good against these soulburn spam teams? Wish you picked her more, cheers from Brazil
You're not wrong. She's good into teams that rely on soulburns. If you're referring to Match 3, they had quite a stacked roster that didn't need soulburns to accomplish the cleave. Belian would've been controlled very early on by Pirate Captain Flan and then the rest would be history, unfortunately.
I don’t think Jenua’s dead. He’s surprisingly good against this new flan thanks to his additional damage with his S3 that scales on his attack. The only thing stopping him is Illynav. I’ve had quite a few matches this season with him and he’s definitely nowhere near as good as he was last season simply because of the fact that Illynav exists, but he’s not completely dead.
@@thatonexfallenangel7810 He is not a priority pick like he used to be. He still does exactly what he used to, but he doesn't fit into this meta as easily. As you mentioned, ML Ilynav renders his damage moot, so many have opted to go for non-defense penetration units for damage instead (BBK and Arby).
@thatonexfallenangel7810 he dies to ddr, atywin, bbk, amiki, ml ilynav and basically any form of control. With that many units that can deal with him, he's just hard to pick nowadays. I only found success picking him as last pick in only a few games.
@@astesiav The majority of characters are countered by those units. This is not specific enough to him, to justify saying he’s a dead character. ML Illynav and Wukong are literally the only counters to him, unless you’re using a dedicated Celine + FfaN Politis.
Playing reactionary in this meta for what I've seen ain't it. I just ban harsetti and luna. Dont care what my opponents pick just pick oppressive units. BBK A flan ran etc. If your opponents pick defense u just get a free win I feel like.

I wish I could crit with elemental disadvantage on every hit like that.
@@azallea you can use holiday yufine against newmoon luna.
Flan has guaranteed crit on her kit. Maybe thats why
That last fight was stressful for no reason. Sheesh.

The first opponent was strategic with it, he picked soulweavers early because you dont get to see what he chooses so you cant counter it.
Omg i never thought its possible to meet Legend While in Champ 💀
10:00 his flan didn't proc arti. big oof. with atk buff flan does kill
@@roxas4587 Good catch!
last vid: aza drafts zio to oneshot First turn with Flan*
today: omg all my units cant outspeed a 250 shalltear
Cant believe RNG king lost that, dude got every counter and never missed.

Switch up from when you have first pick and when you dont.
@@twilightpersona It might need to start happening. We'll do some testing.
@@azallea i play in a similar way that you do. I find that has worked for me so far
Flan has guaranteed crit, not sure if that bypasses elemental disadvantage but might be the reason for the last game

petition for azallea competing in emperor rank and dominates
More Rem please, I'm still pushing her all through the years cayse she's best girl
Ah, a man of culture.
You're like the only person I've seen pre-ban arby lol
ngl its justified,extinction unit is very punishable rn
I think on the 3rd match you could actually try to strip BBK immortality with S.Politis S1 rather than hitting Illynav IMO
i am in champ also 2400 points but bro my win rate hard dropped from like 60 to 52% just because of this flan nonesense like i love the hero but like she is tooo annoying to deal with
What Ml would you recommend between candy, brisera, atywin? I think about getting one of them in the upcoming hunt event

Is jenua dead in the meta?
i havent seen him since last couple of weeks
@@santanderricsanpaul2057 Yeah, pretty dead.

Would like to see you try AS Flan & Harsetti combo. Harsetti S1 first into Flan dual attack. Works every time.
Day 28: asking for ae Gisele rta
I was hospitalized 😅
I think in match 2 ASFlan was missing gear, her dmg was horrible.. he realized that and conceded
Playing reactionary in this meta for what I've seen ain't it. I just ban harsetti and luna. Dont care what my opponents pick just pick oppressive units. BBK A flan ran etc. If your opponents pick defense u just get a free win I feel like.
