Wow great idea I’m definitely gonna sign up

Personally I have never cared about the elo rating, I just love watching this series. I actually prefer it over the emerald series and I am glad to see you back at it! Don't even worry about the climb in my opinion, just keep battling for the love of the battle.

Kinda agreed, but the games are way higher quality at higher ELO. I'd take a 2000 ELO match over 1500 any day, because enemies seemingly do random nonsensical stuff at lower ranges. And even at 2k, people still aren't exactly great at the game tbh.

preciate that strife. I'm glad I see the support of people liking this series as much as if not more than the emerald series. I will continue the climb aspect of it, because that's kind of the point of the series. We'll see where that can take me, I just hope I can breach the top 500. But I do have ideas to throw in more showdown battles with the presidents (ex. a 1v1v1v1 with the presidents including bush) down the line. Thanks again!

Donald's right tbh I personally don't care too much about the rank. I just like hearing the 3 of them talking back and forth. President gaming have become my favorite types of videos to just throw on and watch for hours

This is the only presidents channel that does the ladder climb, yes? I love that you’re still doing this alongside the emerald series. Having one of these every so often or in between a few episodes of emerald is a nice reprieve. Love the content man. Including yourself in this was cool! Bet it was nerve racking to break immersion and all but they’ve mentioned you as the editor for a while so you were always present in your videos anyway. If having you in these videos means more material then I’m definitely all for it!! Keep it up

I'm actually cool with you playing on the showdown ladder, I'm just used to the presidents having each other to comment on their moves when they play so nothing too big. Speaking of which, maybe you could have the presidents comment about your gameplay on the start of the next video and it could work like a recap too. Well I mean like, you are officially the editor for the Presidents so you are a part of the crew too and secondly, I'm sure the Presidents would have anything to say seeing their own editor play for the first time.

To make your personal commentary a bit more exciting, maybe pre-record and then set yourself some bullet notes you can hit on while watching the matches you played. That way you don't need to split your engagement between the match at hand, and the audience. Some of these longer matches can get a little boring without consistent exposition.

@Dylxan327

2 ай бұрын

tera'ing into a type you already are gives those moves an extra buff on top of the normal stab. So with stab the moves are 1.5x, but if you tera into your stab type, those moves become 2.25x I believe. So it's a great offensive strategy, while tera'ing into other types are often more defensive strategy. Broadly speaking that is.
