Not really seeing the godlyness here, you lost that Slowbro ditto because you didn't rest. Slowbro in a ditto should Rest after taking 3-4 Surfs.

(also ugh amnesialax AND tobybro...)

[truedragons]

It wasn't me that lost.

Well, I just assumed since it was Antilead's log and you posted it that you were Antilead.

I have no idea what was going on with Tauros vs. Slowbro there. You could easily have killed him if you hadn't misused your Hyper Beams. Know your damage calcs! Or at least use this to calc your damage before you use a committal move like Hyper Beam or Explosion or whatever.

I could maybe understand sac'ing Tauros to get your Bro in on his own Bro if his Lax were awake (not what I'd do, but I can kind of see the rationale), but he still had two Rest turns. Plenty of time for Tauros to create carnage against his Lax, not to mention that your Bro out-PPs that Snorlax by quite a bit if it comes to that.

To be fair, I should have had him a few times but got unlucky with a fp and a missed hyper. And if I want to kill the bro, isn't the only way to use 2 slams + hyper and hope one of them crits?

I have no idea what was going on with Tauros vs. Slowbro there. You could easily have killed him if you hadn't misused your Hyper Beams. Know your damage calcs! Or at least use this to calc your damage before you use a committal move like Hyper Beam or Explosion or whatever.

I could maybe understand sac'ing Tauros to get your Bro in on his own Bro if his Lax were awake (not what I'd do, but I can kind of see the rationale), but he still had two Rest turns. Plenty of time for Tauros to create carnage against his Lax, not to mention that your Bro out-PPs that Snorlax by quite a bit if it comes to that.

To be fair, I should have had him a few times but got unlucky with a fp and a missed hyper. And if I want to kill the bro, isn't the only way to use 2 slams + hyper and hope one of them crits?

But if you'd need the HBeam to crit, it's better to slam, let him rest, and then try again.

Yeah, it's better to try and crit with one of your slams than it is to pray for a crit Beam.

Tauros vs. Slowbro is just a crazy matchup in general. Tauros can, under some conditions, check Slowbro; under different conditions, Slowbro checks Tauros. And under most conditions, it's fairly dicey for both sides - I've lost Slowbro to Tauros without inflicting a single hit, and I've also beaten Tauros with Slowbro and come out of it fully set up.
