How a coin flip decided Pokemon's largest tournament

  • The 2023 Orlando Regional Championships was the largest live Pokemon VGC tournament in the history of competitive Pokemon, with 780 competitors attending. The finals featured two of the most prominent VGC players, Wolfe Glick and Ashton Cox, and this was their THIRD time meeting in a Regional Finals. The set was incredibly exciting and came down to a single coin flip to determine the victor at the end! In this video, I break down the finals and what made it so exciting.

    I don't have feedback for improvement, but after reaching the end I want to add that I really appreciated the insight into the specific EV training of Arcanine, gholdengo, and iron hands and how it affected the matchup, the damage calculations and whether misses/critical hits impacted the outcome, potential outs the players could play toward, and the thought process behind bringing certain Pokemon and behind game 2/3 team/strategy adjustments. I know these things probably take a while to research, but they add a lot of depth to the video!

    Loved the edited video. It's obviously much more resource intensive to do than your other stuff; there was clearly a lot of work that went into this. I found early on with my edited content that my hardcore fans enjoyed it more, but it didn't attract as wide of an audience. I settled on non-edited content and it made my production line much easier, I'm curious to see how it goes for you though as this was really enjoyable to watch.

    To offer feedback, I enjoyed the editing in this. I watched it, and I felt that there was something different in the way it was produced and edited, and I got a giggle out of some of the various animated-stills of the players, such as Ashton really sweating it. Whether this is your own editing (and if it is, nice work! Editing is actually quite difficult) or the result of hiring a talented editor, I think this was done very well. I gave this a definite thumbs up. Thanks as always for providing insightful and entertaining coverage of competitive pokemon.
    Best wishes to you, yours, and theirs, neighbor!

    Honestly, I’d consider myself a solid player, enough to understand the thought processes of both players and understand why turns and plays are so good, and for the most part I did before your analysis. However, you really did an amazing job and taught me some things I definitely wasn’t thinking about, like thinking about bringing Dondozo into Perish.

    I am not that familiar with official tournaments, but you made it really interesting to watch and easy to follow. It's crazy for me think that the EVs got so specifically distributed to counter such specific pokemon (HP / DEF investment in Gholdengo and the Speed investment in Iron Hands). These matches were amazing.
    Thanks for the effort you put into the video!
