I've actually noticed Jake getting much better at the game over the last few months. This was legitimately very good play throughout most of the game. You have to be so scared and conservative playing this build.
It is worth noting: this build got worse when boosted attack stopped applying 2 marks as the previous play pattern allowed you to stealth rocks > boosted for max stacks
Meowdy, I have one heck of an unconventional set for you: Azumarill, but you're a defender. Buddy Barrier, Focus Band, Resonant guard, Whirlpool, Play Rough, Shedinja Doll. What you lose in damage, you make up for in being able to recklessly run in and make space. If they try to focus you, whirlpool and shed doll helps you stay alive and stay a threat.
really like this build. It all synergies really nicely when you think about it.The attack weight gives you more damage with less autos, enables dragon pulse to get k.Os from crazy hp ranges(which empowers your stealth rock boosteds even more) and the bagel allows you to keep your enemies from recovering over time which gives you even more damage since dura deals execute dmg to targets low on health.. He's clearly not an ADC anymore he's more like a controller. It would be nice if they added that class to unite and reworked some of his stats.

Shadow claw aegislash w scope lens razor claw attack weight after level 11 shadow claw upgrade crit chance goes up and when he hits a boosted auto as a crit does like 1k , feels like crit chance is super high after level 11
People of the Spragels comment section: If you have a problem with the build, you're welcome to ask Mathcord themselves for their reasoning, because things like these they labbed out like crazy
@@Dave_of_Mordorngl that sounds like a skill issue more than anything else to me. You say it’s impossible to play but not said why it’s impossible to play
@@Symonne Pokemon unite is not a hard game to play. There is no such thing as skill issue in this game. The real problem are the trolls playing and not getting punished for it
@@Dave_of_Mordor I didn’t say it was a hard game 😂 but yes there are people with skill issues in the game also honestly you are more likely to meet a bot or someone with low knowledge of the game than to meet a troll
On a completely unrelated note, this game needs to nerf Leafon asap. Bought the license with the 30% off due to getting obliterated in matches, and it's been absolutely craazy! Solar beam and leaf blade are ridiculous!
Maybe you have to time the dragon pulse with the charging charm proc + stealth rock makes charging charm build up faster?? I don't know if thats the idea and if it is, it seems too complicate to work
charging charm is for the burst at the final moment and move speed since duraludon has no mobility with that build bangle is so they can't heal it off and maybe reduce the effects of focus band if they have one atk weight is amazing for the build since it has around 450% scaling in the end the build is not so bizarre to me as some may say
Idk if I do anything THIS crazy, but I do 6 white, 5 red, muscle, curse, focus, with potion on Fire Spin Armarouge and I love it. Idk if it’s any better than 6 green, 6 white, 3 blk but it feels good. Lol
Is weakness policy, charging charm + muscle band considered an unconventional build on scyther? If so, then thats a build thats worked really well for me
The only strange items I really play is on my main Meowscarada, which the items aren't even that strange, it's moreso the Shedinja Doll I use. My items are Attack Weight, Amp, and Float Stone with max move speed and high attack emblems. The idea is to be able to sprint across the map in seconds with Double Team speedboost and dash and have a lot of powerful, safe, anchored ults.
No…..if you are in combat long enough to stack up weakness policy you are playing Absol wrong lol Charging charm, or attack weight beats weakness policy every time!
Like they said ^ Weakness policy doesn't really work with most speedsters because you need to get in and get out asap, weakness policy is more meant for pokemon who get in and stay to brawl.
Weakness policy is better for 1v1. You won't get a lot of those situations in endgame when it matters. If you're carrying the game, players that look at the map will look to stun gank you. A lot of builds work against opponents that play the game badly, but will get you punished and destroyed in a lobby with experienced players.
It does have a niche when you get bursted and manage to get a strong crit before dying. If you're good to set up those situations, it can work. Then again, it depends on ennemy team behavior. I prefer to rely on my own moves personally
@@everettmagruder1191 I don't know but 66% win rate absol doesn't seem to point at me playing absol wrong. I'm playing night slash and psycho cut so I'm bound to get damaged compared to pursuit/sucker punch and I don't have to play the stacking minigame which can backfire badly or not happen at all and you have a dead weight item. I can totally take 1v2 with this build which doesn't work at all on a classic pursuit/sucker punch which is more taking as much 1v1 in a row as possible. I either ko if they run or ko if they fight back. I also chose weakness policy over energy amp because I prefer having an item useful in every fight rather than 2 fights in the game (although it is totally a good item)
What I learned from this video is that they should make Duraludon's Unite Move Unstoppable and it would become a pretty good Pokemon
And unite move cd it still outdated almost 3min cd
They should do the same for Metagross
I've actually noticed Jake getting much better at the game over the last few months. This was legitimately very good play throughout most of the game. You have to be so scared and conservative playing this build.
So this is why I’m seeing a lot of duraludons on rankeds😭😭😭 please make more videos of defenders or supporters cause every new video makes a trend😢
ADC without muscle band is almost as bad as the B tier 😭😭
(unless its garchomp, dragonite, gyarados, or mewtwo x)

That actually sounds pretty fun, think I'm gonna try it
which emblem set do you recommand?
No EXP Share? Coward.
Same as me.
Sounds Fun! 😄👍💜🧡

Cram with exp share and choice specs, is a decent support for mons like char.
I saw it like a month ago and tried it once and it was fine

If you removed charging charm with muscle band this build would be pretty solid honestly. Charging charm honestly sucks.
We can go to the other side.
If I’m wanting to make my opponents not have fun with mean look, I like running muscle/scarf/resonant guard for rude shields and healing
Fluffy Tail Absol will always be my personal favorite.

It the same crit chance charizard have for 1 sec
@@LiveGoDaYDaYs how much is that
@@user-kt9uw6dy8j 30% without any helditem and emblem it basr crit stat is 10% so it not that high

Wow! I might have to give this a try!!!
The multihit Dragon Pulse in bot lane was so juicy, wth! It looks so slow but that presence was solid
Hunter Speaking: With Crustle I run items that aren't the go to ones, but they work great! 😄👍💜🧡
Yippie! More spragels content, I was just replaying the pack opening video
this game has become impossible to play. idk how it's still going

Rapid-Fire Scarf + Muscle Band is pretty broken on Pokemon that they aren't meta on, like Talonflame and Umbreon.
Rapid fire scarf on Goodra is really fun NGL
Maybe you have to time the dragon pulse with the charging charm proc + stealth rock makes charging charm build up faster?? I don't know if thats the idea and if it is, it seems too complicate to work
Can definitely see the curse bangle work with this but the other 2 items are bizarre
Looks like stealth rock damage also gives Dragon Pulse stack. Seems that way to me anyways.
charging charm is for the burst at the final moment and move speed since duraludon has no mobility with that build
bangle is so they can't heal it off and maybe reduce the effects of focus band if they have one
atk weight is amazing for the build since it has around 450% scaling
in the end the build is not so bizarre to me as some may say

Is weakness policy, charging charm + muscle band considered an unconventional build on scyther? If so, then thats a build thats worked really well for me
nah it seems fine to me ! weakness is great for any melee pokémon and additional bulk is never bad
@@titouanangeard8202 Not every speedster can really utilize weakness policy to be fair.
razor claw is way better than weakness policy on scyther
Inder became a duraladon main for one day because of this build so I think it's good 🤔
I don’t know Jake… what does the fox have to say about this?
Cursed Bangle in non-draft solo Q? What a disaster
Can anyone please say should I buy delphox or decidueye
Delphox takes less skill and is just as good
Why bother with Bangle when you can be more consistent with Muscle Band for an ADC.
i agree. Bangle for the last pulse to avoid getting too much heal
How are you
Is running drain crown on trevenant deemed unconventional? sometimes i do attack weight, cookie, drain crown/razor claw/bangle
Shell bell on urshifu for extra cooldown 😂
Jake's really out here like the Dura rework was needed smh /j
Looks like it would be good for a bulky enemy team
I’m wondering what happened in the beginning of this match?
stealth rocks + fire spin is a sick combo
scarf band sash blastoise with spin pump is honestly really good

What about laning, however... 🤔
Charging charm seems a waste since all this build does is tick damage that doesn't augment its counters
It's a good job.
Second comment first like😊
An unusual item I like is weakness policy on Absol, it's not on any build in unite db but I swear it's better than atk weight
No…..if you are in combat long enough to stack up weakness policy you are playing Absol wrong lol Charging charm, or attack weight beats weakness policy every time!

I like it... but I don't get the charging charm here. Not sure what the synergy is there.
Sinead has just been told.
First strike is for the first kill of the game. not every players first kill. im sorry, its been annoying me for like over year now lol
Yeah so definitely muscle band instead of charging charm, WTF is the math chord doing 🤣🤣
the new dragon pulse feels so weird after all those nerfs ans reworks
DO YOU EVEN BRAWL?
Hello mate how is it today then I.
Hello mate.
Honestly, I believe Razor and Scope are more useful. Which proves how bad Dura is right now.
It's a bit better.
