Luck shouldn't matter in the end, and usually doesn't. It can cost you 1 or 2 pokemon, but in the end, if you outplayed them, you should win. (Please, don't be like Siege. He would leave battles I had against him when I was winning 6-3 and one attack missed)

My latest battle says otherwise. First, Tyranitar's Crunch drops my Slowbro's defense not one, not two, but THREE fucking times(I had to switch repeatedly, having other pokemon get hurt). Then, I confuse his Skarmory later on(and it isn't affected by it for 3 turns) and then put it to sleep and have Alakazam hit it with Focus Blast.
It survives, wakes up and gets cleared of confusion at the same damn time, and Drill Pecks Alakazam. He barely survives, and Alakazam has missed two Focus Blasts so far, so he NEEDS to hit this time or he dies. Does he hit? Of course not. After Zam dies, I confuse Skarmory again and it never hits itself, and my last pokemon can't take it because my counters have gotten luck haxed, so I just quit. Does my game hate me or something?

Was this on Shoddy or Wifi?

dude. I know it can be annoying as hell.. but seriously.. just a game

If you lose, for whatever reason, just shrug it off.

Playing games are supposed to be fun, not make you frustrated.

Games are supposed to be fun, but when this kind of stuff happens, all of the enjoyment goes down the drain.

CrossDragon: On wifi.

And I just had a battle where his Gengar's Hypnosis didn't miss the two times it was used. Great. What is it, 30 battles now? Can't forget the criticals either.

I was going to say, if this was on Shoddy it's understandable. But on Wifi, I can't really comment on that seeing as I don't have Wifi.

What would be the difference, anyway? I think Shoddy's well past the time of 240-power Close Combat and other such aberrations.

B1001, never play any of the Fire Emblem games. You'll want to murder infants, seriously.

...what's so frustrating with Fire Emblem? I never actually played one (though I'm well aware I should sometime), so I wouldn't know.

It'd take awhile to explain, but these videos demonstrate some of the bs of that game's RNG--admittedly, they are probably extreme cases, but you get the idea.







Yeah...

One day, I 4-0ed someone. The next, I got 4-0ed. Without that luck, it would have been "One Day, I got 4-0ed. The next, I 4-0ed someone."

Lady Luck slaps you in the face only to make sex with her more appealing. Decining that sexy luck is just stupid, because your opponent certainly doesn't want to run away if luck is on his side. Luck is a huge factor, like it or love it.

And then the bastards say "Good game" and act as if nothing happened, and as if they would have won without it.


And how do you know that they wouldn't have won without it? Seriously.
