Prev 1 … Go to page. First Prev 8 of 8 Go to page. Jett peko is peko. Last edited: May 28, Hey frens. Being a TL has been a fun and enlightening experience albeit one that has burnt me out over time. My interest in NFE has been declining, and the metagame will need a TL who is dedicated to keep on pushing it in the right direction.
He has valuable leading experience from ZU and has been a longstanding council member here as well. Well deserved to all of you!! I wish you all the best of luck moving forward. Treat the metagame and each other with respect and I am confident that NFE will continue to grow and prosper. S1nn0hC0nfirm3d aka Ho3nConfirm3d. Hey guys! Thanks jett, grey, marj, and all others that have contributed to NFE before me.
Looking forward, the NFE playerbase can expect updates to our resources, especially the sample teams, as we go into the newest post-bans meta. There's a couple of outliers that warrant discussion: Electabuzz. Galarian Mr. Just gotta remember to creep paralyzed Golbat lol Bring back everyone's favorite DLC1 core Rabootey. Toxic Spikes are pretty centralizing, especially with Koffing and VoltTurn's dominance.
Subs will also come in if we maybe need 1 or two more players to even the brackets out more. However, if you sub once, you may NOT sub again, you get one chance at subbing, and if you lose, that is it. We ALSO will make a call around the time of the tournament starting that if you want to be a substitute, make sure you are ready and know the rules well!
If you would like to be a sub, fill out this form :. Spectating means that you will be watching the tournament from outside one of the arenas, and not participating.
If you are spectating, you can not switch from it and become either a sub or a competitor the day of the tourney. You can only volunteer to be a sub if you are ready to go, know the rules, and volunteer RIGHT as we ask if anyone wants to be a sub incase we need it. Thank you for reading everything hopefully! Hopefully we get a lot of people to be involved into the tournament and get it hyped up! Hopefully everyone has fun with this event!
However, I alone did not make this tournament! I do have credits that will be given out:. Zappeh Zappeh on Discord for questions , for helping collect items as well as keeping things on track and helping the rules get made! WaterBolt RichardG on Discord for questions , for helping collecting items, making sure things stayed on track as well as helping get the rules made out!

GoomyZ I will be participating. At the moment…. In this section, we'll take a brief look at the changes in the NFE metagame over the past few months and a suspect test for one of the biggest threats in the tier. However, its usage and win rate have been slowly decreasing since then. Over the last few months, NFE has shifted towards a more offensive metagame in which immediate threats, such as Servine and Machoke, have become a lot more popular. Its Calm Mind set currently suffers from being too passive due to its lack of immediate power when compared to other setup sweepers, while its other sets are too passive, being easily switched into and set up on.
Servine also benefited greatly from the banning of Gurdurr and Piloswine, as they both made it difficult for Servine to set up. Sliggoo's falling usage also helped Servine, as it was one of its best counters. Servine is also unique because it could support itself with Glare and Knock Off. It brought immediate power, which is something Clefairy lacked, and it also could use Clefairy as setup bait. This matchup was a large reason for the downfall of Clefairy and why Servine became the biggest threat in NFE.
This was particularly the case with its most commonly used set, which also functioned as a specially defensive wall and was able to reliably beat common offensive special attackers, such as Kadabra and Electabuzz.
Servine is just as versatile as Clefairy without being as passive, and its amazing kit was finally fully realized after a couple months of the new metagame, when its usage began to skyrocket. Recently, a Servine suspect test was held which will be elaborated on below.
The rise of Servine meant that its checks and counters had to be used more often. The best of these is Roselia. Roselia's solid defensive typing along with its reliable recovery in Synthesis and high Special Defense lets it switch into Servine and threaten it out with Sludge Bomb, but it can also check other common offensive special attackers such as Electabuzz and Frogadier. It also does well against Clefairy, as long as Clefairy has not gotten multiple Calm Mind boosts prior to Roselia switching in.
Unlike many of Servine's other switch-ins, such as Sliggoo and Vullaby, Roselia is able to perform a large role outside of just checking Servine. It is the tier's premier Spiker, as it can easily force switches and create free opportunities to set up entry hazards. Because of these attributes, Roselia is by far the most popular Servine switch-in. One reason why Machoke became more popular was because it fits very well in the ServRose metagame.
As a physical wallbreaker, it benefited from the fact that both Servine and Roselia run maximum Special Defense investment for their main sets as well as many of Servine's and Roselia's checks also having to run Special Defense investment. People also started to use Machoke because they realized it had a very limited amount of switch-ins due to its very high Attack, strong STAB attack in Close Combat, and access to very good coverage moves.
Heavy Slam allows Machoke to hit Fairy-types, and Earthquake helps it take on Poison-types, essentially eliminating the standard checks to Fighting-types.
