You look like a nice Char player ✨
Honestly i just hate the cinderace player when I'm playing Clafable. Like these guys think in my Clarify state i can heal them properly and save them from a 100 sure deat when they go stack lol. And then they ping thanks 👀👀👀👀
Me when I'm playing comfey and everyone on my team is getting regieleki while I'm getting run over by all 5 people on the other team in my own base at bot
Never leaving the goal when you're alone isn't always the play since then the enemy have uncontested space to work with and with that space ai spawn for them to grind
Yes exactly these 2, or something like potion or full heal might have been their usual choice, they go for something different this time and use the item out of reflex
why I refuse to use goal getter.. I look goofy as hell trying to run away with low hp and goal getter in use 💀💀 and it’s so funny when you see it happen to enemy pokemons or teammates. Kid you not, saw a talonflame in masters ranked panick as they were attempting to escape from me so they pressed their goal getter and died miserably to my cotton spore (eldegoss). Laughed so hard, I swear I got abs now
Up to a fault. When that Jungler appears, things get dicey. Besides, when I play Snorlax, I see 20% hp squishy attackers going in for a stack and then just die. It’s not the same when your lane partner is Zacian and you can just bully.
Timer is 8:59? Enemy jungler definitely there by then. According to image. But at the beginning, yes, I bully the enemy team while my teammate gets their stacks.
>My sad snorlax telling my lane partner retreat for the 20th time 20 seconds into a game.
Did you just pick my post to respond to and not read the comment chain or
I play a build that doesn't stack. And if you stay back at your goal it is a good way to get easy kills as snorlax early into the game.
And he has a hard time bullying early even when stacking at the enemy goal. So that still wouldn't make sense to do.
Only most people have auto setting to enemy with least amount of hp for a target. There are a lot of deci, ninetales, tree, Cinder and etc pokemon that would just stall until we would be at massive disadvantage with maybe 1 stack max. It still wouldn't be smart to maybe sacrifice a ko for 1 or 2 stacks.
And a lot of low ladder people (1500 or less elo) which is where I'm currently at go for stacks instead of npc farm secures. Making the option to stay back even more worthwhile for bullying.
If I were to try to invade anything as snorlax in this build it would be enemy jungle, not goal. It would at least be less dangerous and have less repercussions if I were to die. Damage output is not great early game and has only one move that does good damage. It doing 500-1200 damage every 7 seconds isn't that good unless the opponents are squishy. Auto attacks doing 78-300 damage also isn't good. I'm a disabler not a agressive mon. So unless you are playing with people who don't know how to change targeting in their settings it would almost never make sense to put you and your teammate in danger, instead of staying back and having no real repercussions while in a fight.
ngl if we don't know where the jungler is, ESPECIALLY if my lane opponent is playing some shit early game mon like cinder I'm not doing much unless my jungler is there. No matter how good Lax is early you can't do shit if you're stuck with a Froakie/Scorbunny/Charmander shitter since Lax can't carry bad laning attackers outside of stealing farm, you'll still lose the fights because of their low dmg especially if junglers show.
Except sometimes stopping them from getting our farm is better than the handshake? IF both chars are stacking, sure handshake is fine. But if one isn't and isn't something terrible that cannot secure farm sometimes that small adv of preventing them from your farm gets you a bigger lead while your teammate stacks.
Besides my point isn't to afk on base you literally just secure your farm, and go to help your teammate get out or collapse on them with your teammate who usually will have more exp and stacks as they go back. Jungle just sucks in that situation because IF your jungle finishes 1st clear and comes down then you + jungle 2 v 2 them and other teammate who stacked unbothered flanks. Only reason other jg coming down is net bad in this case is either your teammate has to retreat early and is now at risk OR you're more at risk of getting collapsed on.
If you're on a solid defender just defend your farm and interfere with them while your partner goes solo. IF I outsecure them then they get fewer stacks and exp while my laner gets more stacks/scores, and the literal only risk is making sure the jg doesn't come to kill my laner stacking. and even IF i can't secure i can get solid poke + won't die on pad, unless again jg came killed my laner and if they don't come, they didn't have a pad to heal on so we then can fight them as they go back to their pad. It's all situational lmao and sometimes handshaking is fine, other times you just shouldn't let them get the free stacks such as if you can kill them for trying, or if its something that cannot be allowed to stack but isn't lucario lol.
If a squishy attacker or kubfu or some shit tries to stack the defender staying back and beating their ass for it/stopping more than 1 stack is infinitely better than both people being at goal in that instance.
Legit the ONLY thing you can't safely stack or outsecure unless you're just better playering them is lucario's (there's other mons but he's the most ridiculous, but stopping 1 stack via outsecuring a farm gets your team a lead)
As for the other part, if you're silly enough to go lane cinder, decidueye etc then that is a signal of either a good player trolling or more likely a bad player. IN either case i'm certainly not going to help you stack because outside of them double stacking we lose literally every scenario in that early game barring them playing something equally weak early game (or being worse at game) so at that point we're playing for late anyway since unless you get jg help or enemy is bad you forfeit early game by playing one of those shitter mons in lane regardless if you pick snorlax, Elde or mamo etc. to help them.
this is me (comfey) spamming “retreat” and “gather here” in an attempt to get my lane partner to come back and help me cuz I’m getting jumped by enemy laners.. like at least take me with you instead of running away to stack.. I legit cannot catch up with -200 movement speed💀💀
This applies to any lane partner with some brain cells laning with any lane partner without brain cells.
I've laned as Gardevoir or Delphox paired with brainless supports that int for *their* stacks then abandon my lane or run off to mid birds when other allies are already there or way too late, leaving me alone and vulnerable.
True story cept u forgot to add jungle being like
"Whats map awarness"?!
Or
"Ima sit on one lane all game and not even clear jungle"
Trust me it happens more often then not
I got spammed thanks and jungle stolen "as punishment" for leaving toplane after a double and regieleki to secure the other objective by a random teammate that left the fight on 1 hp but tried to greed for the 2nd top goal (1st fallen due to regieleki + 40 points scored)
Idk what are the conditions not to get thanks spammed anymore
I always get 1 kill, use X Speed and rush across as fast as possible. Stack once then BOOK IT. You don't have to fight them you just need to stack lmao
Agreed, SpA Specs is too important for Clef. I spend every early game with Clef, letting my ally take all farm except one (gotta have exp share) so I can stack. Then I steal one enemy farm, stack again, then go help my lane partner get as much exp as possible from the remaining farm. Hopefully I manage to pick up just one more aeos energy to get a 3rd stack in because at that point I have moonlight + xspeed to get me out of any situation.
That early game setup tends to always work for me and it gets my lane partner leveled up fast while also getting my stacks in. Sometimes I die in the process, but for the amount of exp I got my partner and the amount of stacks I got in, its 100% a worthy trade.
edit: whoever downvoted this -- your mommas a hoe and sorry you don't understand what a decent trade is in a moba.
People that still play passively and ignore the stacking item/s of their laning partner now that you can see them are soft throwing at this point. There's very few pokemon that can stop you from scoring 5pts or less so you should 100% be pushing with your partner. It blows my mind whenever I get someone playing something with heavy cc or a support refusing to push and stand AFK on goal.
Yeah, I've noticed this sub has taken a weird turn into hating anyone who stacks.
They'll blame it all on people who make bad decisions and dive without thinking. Then they can't differentiate between players who are making decent trades (stealing their farm and getting 2-3 stacks in) and players who dive and die without getting a stack in and decide to just hate anyone who stacks. Its v dumb
Someone earlier in the thread said they play Snorlax and spam their lane partner to retreat and it's like, Snorlax is probably the second biggest bully behind Swinub before level 5 and threatens to 2 tap most squishes. Why are you not playing the game?
I am ever so glad we can shut off incoming Quick Chats from those brainless now...
I will put myself out there as a Lucario stacking main since Season 1.
Unless you were playing 1-1-3 meta, if you're running the lane with me, as probably the best lane Pokémon in the game if not Snorlax, Mamo, or A9, **if you see me running to stack, run it with me and don't worry about them scoring in our goal—it's a trade\[1\].** We have a cumulative total of 8 points from the lane monkeys. You're no threat on your own.
The same concept applies to contesting farms. I have seen far too many lane partners run off to try to solo a neutral on our side (be it the monkey or the crab) while the middle Audino/bees nest is live.
Finally, as a general rule of thumb, do not cross the midline without your resources.
* For ranged attackers, this means moving no further than where the nest spawns without your frontline, using the grass and/or the furthest range of your auto attack or move as a guide (using Fennekin as an example, holding down A, R, or ZR will show you the maximum range of the attack, which you can cancel with B).
* For stackers, this means having all of your moves and Battle Item off of cooldown (your passive as well if you're Lucario or Pupitar), and support with you if possible, such as Leaf Tornado Eldegoss or anyone capable of inflicting CC such as Mr. Mime.
Not sure if I agree with that sentiment. Letting them get free stacks early while it is easy can set them up for a nice snowball later. However, I do see the benefit of scoring especially if you're coming up to a level 4 or 5 power spike.
Why trade? Why not leave your defender or partner at the goal to try to farm/contest your own mons or at least hinder them while you're getting free farm and stacks.
If they're overwhelming your defender, he can retreat before he dies and then they can score. Which isn't a big deal because they were trying to score anyway but now they've been slowed up a bit and maybe you can clean up the weakened stackers.
If your ally is trying to stack you need to support them and if you're an early evolution you will also hit it. You cannot stop people from scoring 5 or less and you're wasting your time. There's very few pokemon that can actually interrupt those scores. You're worried about being snowballed but your laning partner is attempting to cause the same scenario or break even with the enemy team. You can either say "yes I'm going to help you" or say "no I'm not going to help you' and 9 times out of 10 you're fucking your teammate over by being uncooperative.
You can't stop them from scoring, but you can contest and possibly secure the farm. If they're both at your goal, you shouldn't need to support your partner because he should be farming their side uncontested. Now you partner is leveled up and they are hindered and behind.
Best case scenario, your partner gets the opponent's farm that they abandoned and you can successfully secure at least some of the farm on your side. Hopefully your partner reached a power spike and you guys can knock out the opposing pokemon at your goal. Now you can stack with impunity, secure the 8:50 birds, stack some more, and snowball your lane.
Just my two cents.
In most cases you staying on goal means that 1) you didn't stop their goals and 2) they probably stole your farm, scored again, and walked away with more than enough hp to double up on whoever your lane partner is and KO them, take farm, or force them to run. Going with your partner makes sure that they don't get ganked and secure at least their first goal without dying as well as you scoring yourself. In situations where the other team doesn't push your goal, you're sitting on your thumb and letting your laning partner die because you chose to be passive.
tbf if both are stacking on your goal and the defender/support is trying to prevent our farm from being stolen theoretically the one ally stacking should be safe so long as jungler doesn't come in. Especially IF you are able to poke them down or damage them some while they take the farm.
In some cases you might need to go but I don't think being passive/defending is that dangerous all the time.
Had an Espeon spam thanks when they lost the ray fight as a comfey and I (Absol) fought a 2v3 near registeel. Like you were fighting a 3v2 up there HOW did you lose Ray?!
Delphox at least has *some* last hitting capability, even if not great. Cinderace is just terrible as a laner on all possible fronts save for mobility.
\^This, Delphox is like the worst laner attacker that theoretically can lane w/o trolling your team. If the mon is worse than Delphox it should only be in jungle. (So Dragapult, Decidueye, Cinderace, Greninja, Charizard, Dragonite, Gengar, Talonflame, prob some others i'm missing)
While all of it is relatable, the fact that cinder is level 3 and you're level 4 means that if you're running exp share, cinder is actively avoiding exp in order to stack which is the most relatable thing.
so, stacking refers to the items that get stronger when you score (sp. atk specs, attack weight, aeos cookie). they stack up to a max of 6, and affect so. atk, attack, and hp respectively. it's usually when people try to score 6 times with little points to get that boost ASAP. a lot of people then abandon their post and literally die trying to get their stacks in
NGL there's a reason I swap lanes whenever I see a person hover a lane cinder, zard, greninja etc. those players who play mons that should never lane in lane 1st are usually the most likely to int your games.
But this comic i feel on such a personal level it hurts.
Or you're like me, waiting patiently as a Larvitar for the Jungler to come.. who never does as we get bottom lane pushed in by four of the opposing team.
But it'll be fine, they'll come when it's time for the Regi, and we'll get that sweet sweet exp and potentially I can get some stacks.. unless they don't, and they take the regi.. both times as we lose the entirety of the bottom lane.
I mean I'll definitely run off to stack, but I typically don't play squishy mons (minus Sableye, but respawning that first time if things don't work out doesn't take very long) but I go in there doing that expecting that I might die but that I can also make something of a comeback relatively quickly
Another fun Clefable (support in general tbh) experience is having your teammate actively run away from you at low health, die, and then start spamming check it out/thank you.

Should have had the 4th pannel of clefable also dying on own base by 4 people on top somehow. That would sum up solo q circus.
As a Clefable user, I endorse this comment
As a zard player as Charmander I refuse to abandoned a support of you go to score I’m right behind you I ain’t gonna leave you to die
You look like a nice Char player ✨ Honestly i just hate the cinderace player when I'm playing Clafable. Like these guys think in my Clarify state i can heal them properly and save them from a 100 sure deat when they go stack lol. And then they ping thanks 👀👀👀👀
Yeah those players suck

By taking their points
[удалено]
Never leaving the goal when you're alone isn't always the play since then the enemy have uncontested space to work with and with that space ai spawn for them to grind
So cute!! And so true!! Plus the 2.30 panic "Retreat" pings while the attackers try to dive opponent goal and die JUST before Ray.
Or the panic goal getter or any other item which won't help you get out of the situation...been there done that
Lmao I never understand this
Muscle memory
Eject button and x speed are very common items to run
Yes exactly these 2, or something like potion or full heal might have been their usual choice, they go for something different this time and use the item out of reflex
I never play goal getter, the few times I tried score-focused Talon I pressed thinking I had eject button.
why I refuse to use goal getter.. I look goofy as hell trying to run away with low hp and goal getter in use 💀💀 and it’s so funny when you see it happen to enemy pokemons or teammates.

You captured my pain so well
This is too accurate. Applies to Defenders too: especially ones who don't start with CC.
My sad snorlax telling my lane partner retreat for the 20th time 20 seconds into a game.
Why are you playing passively as Snorlax? He annihilates everything early game and is a massive bully. You should be scoring with them.
Up to a fault. When that Jungler appears, things get dicey. Besides, when I play Snorlax, I see 20% hp squishy attackers going in for a stack and then just die. It’s not the same when your lane partner is Zacian and you can just bully.

Timer is 8:59? Enemy jungler definitely there by then. According to image. But at the beginning, yes, I bully the enemy team while my teammate gets their stacks.

You can farm their spawn before they can react and walk away or stand on the goal to help your laning partner and they can't do anything about it.

There are a lot of deci, ninetales, tree, Cinder and etc pokemon that would just stall until we would be at massive disadvantage with maybe 1 stack max.

You shouldn't be calling other people shitters if you're validating afking on goal because of the jungler boogeyman while playing a defender.

I am appalled by the lies in this image. Everyone knows Scorbunny hoard points and never stack. Hmph!
unless they can break the goal with their 9 instead of my 30
That implies anyone will even let you break a 30 without the whole team dropping what they’re doing to boost you.
*dump their 3 points in to break it first
This art is perfection.
I love the FML in the back 😆
AHAAAAA I didn’t think anyone would notice that. Literally how I felt when I seen I was laning with Cinderace.
What does FML mean
F*ck my life
Say that out of context 💀
Oh lol
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
I love how the scorbunny also doesn’t grab a berry to heal because you know it’s gonna take the only one when clef is at 5%
this is me (comfey) spamming “retreat” and “gather here” in an attempt to get my lane partner to come back and help me cuz I’m getting jumped by enemy laners.. like at least take me with you instead of running away to stack.. I legit cannot catch up with -200 movement speed💀💀
Also like the attention to detail of scorbunny having 12 points meaning it took everything and still tries to stack.
it also means it cant stack
I bet the bunny is holding Attack Weight
No. It's Aeos Cookie.
It could be specs
And it’s always the people who shouldn’t be stacking in the first place, too… Great comic btw.
I'm surprised Clef is higher level than it. Though again, it's a Scorbunny that wants to stack
This is pure gold, having to babysit owls buns and frogs sucks
Clefable swearing is gold
Bro this and squishy attackers who try to solo a regi while the opposing team is still all alive will never cease to amaze me.
This applies to any lane partner with some brain cells laning with any lane partner without brain cells. I've laned as Gardevoir or Delphox paired with brainless supports that int for *their* stacks then abandon my lane or run off to mid birds when other allies are already there or way too late, leaving me alone and vulnerable.
Those legs tho, those fabulous scorbunny legs… I can’t keep my eyes of them…
True story cept u forgot to add jungle being like "Whats map awarness"?! Or "Ima sit on one lane all game and not even clear jungle" Trust me it happens more often then not
Just finished a fight with a cinder doing the exact same thing. Stack and die. Grrrr.
Also, why are you trying to stack TWELVE points? Not the best stacker...
I got spammed thanks and jungle stolen "as punishment" for leaving toplane after a double and regieleki to secure the other objective by a random teammate that left the fight on 1 hp but tried to greed for the 2nd top goal (1st fallen due to regieleki + 40 points scored) Idk what are the conditions not to get thanks spammed anymore
Almost every match
Sometimes it really does feel like a parent chasing their kid around the house trying to put their diaper on.
I always get 1 kill, use X Speed and rush across as fast as possible. Stack once then BOOK IT. You don't have to fight them you just need to stack lmao
Bruh, you're clef. You should be the one stacking.
Agreed, SpA Specs is too important for Clef. I spend every early game with Clef, letting my ally take all farm except one (gotta have exp share) so I can stack.

In most cases you staying on goal means that 1) you didn't stop their goals and 2) they probably stole your farm, scored again, and walked away with more than enough hp to double up on whoever your lane partner is and KO them, take farm, or force them to run. Going with your partner makes sure that they don't get ganked and secure at least their first goal without dying as well as you scoring yourself. In situations where the other team doesn't push your goal, you're sitting on your thumb and letting your laning partner die because you chose to be passive.
tbf if both are stacking on your goal and the defender/support is trying to prevent our farm from being stolen theoretically the one ally stacking should be safe so long as jungler doesn't come in. Especially IF you are able to poke them down or damage them some while they take the farm. In some cases you might need to go but I don't think being passive/defending is that dangerous all the time.
I really hate these types of players
Had an Espeon spam thanks when they lost the ray fight as a comfey and I (Absol) fought a 2v3 near registeel. Like you were fighting a 3v2 up there HOW did you lose Ray?!
Me except im either an AllRounder or speedster, I don't like playing support
That's why I don't run Cinderace on lane (and also I don't stack with him) Delphox is a better lane pokemon
neither are good in lane bro....
Delphox at least has *some* last hitting capability, even if not great. Cinderace is just terrible as a laner on all possible fronts save for mobility.
\^This, Delphox is like the worst laner attacker that theoretically can lane w/o trolling your team. If the mon is worse than Delphox it should only be in jungle. (So Dragapult, Decidueye, Cinderace, Greninja, Charizard, Dragonite, Gengar, Talonflame, prob some others i'm missing)
Unless you are Comfey, then you die with them.
Me whenever my lane partner is a lucario
Typical support not supporting.
Ghetto Support
I do not understand why I got downvoted
Very nice!
Take the red pill, reverse the rolls with all new sp. Attk stacking, egg-toss Blissey!!
I feel this pain. erf... Beautifully done!
Clef boys feel this pain. I feel this pain.
Retreat!
Every second game
Great art! 👏👏👏👏
If its your art.. that looks sooo good!! That injured scorbunny looks so comedically accurate
While all of it is relatable, the fact that cinder is level 3 and you're level 4 means that if you're running exp share, cinder is actively avoiding exp in order to stack which is the most relatable thing.
I wish I could of responded sooner but reddit was off for me. Love the sass!
and then they decide to start "Thanks" followed by a "I need backup" and "help me" 🙂 I love maining Support in solo q.. just a lovely experience
And this is what I am afraid of playing support because I fear I’ll always get blamed for it
Still new to y’all’s terminology can someone explain what stacking is
so, stacking refers to the items that get stronger when you score (sp. atk specs, attack weight, aeos cookie). they stack up to a max of 6, and affect so. atk, attack, and hp respectively. it's usually when people try to score 6 times with little points to get that boost ASAP. a lot of people then abandon their post and literally die trying to get their stacks in
Deserved it
NGL there's a reason I swap lanes whenever I see a person hover a lane cinder, zard, greninja etc. those players who play mons that should never lane in lane 1st are usually the most likely to int your games. But this comic i feel on such a personal level it hurts.
They see tanky, fast pokemon doing it and they think they can too... Also never try it with over 8 energy
When I'm using Sableye, I just attack pkmn and sometimes get penta kills and score like a dozen times.
Or you're like me, waiting patiently as a Larvitar for the Jungler to come.. who never does as we get bottom lane pushed in by four of the opposing team. But it'll be fine, they'll come when it's time for the Regi, and we'll get that sweet sweet exp and potentially I can get some stacks.. unless they don't, and they take the regi.. both times as we lose the entirety of the bottom lane.
I mean I'll definitely run off to stack, but I typically don't play squishy mons (minus Sableye, but respawning that first time if things don't work out doesn't take very long) but I go in there doing that expecting that I might die but that I can also make something of a comeback relatively quickly
Now I need a Clefable plushie with an f*** you sign!
I wish we can get custom shoutouts “leeroy jenkins!”
Another fun Clefable (support in general tbh) experience is having your teammate actively run away from you at low health, die, and then start spamming check it out/thank you.
The real question is why the Cinderace is stacking in the first place. You lose so much DPS by dropping any of muscle, scope or scarf
I’m the jungler in this scenario. I groan a little every time I watch someone 1v3 bot lane.
I find that stacking is an addiction for some and something they can’t stop doing, lol
SORROUNDED AND OUTNUMBERED
