Won 2-1 ggs
won 2'5-1'5, ggs.
Usually I'm not the type of person who does this type of things, but I feel the need to call this out. Basically, me and Rodri played the series of Round 1 of DPP cup and, as you can see from the post before mine, he won the series in 4. But how did we draw G3?

This is the replay of the game, now skip to the last turn. He had an Heatran with just one Fire Blast thanks to Pressure, whereas I had a Zapdos at 63%. The roll of his hit was 55-66, so he definitely had odds of winning, even if lower than mine. Knowing that, he went for Explosion knowing that it would have been a rematch. I respect a Rodri a lot both as a person and as a player (he's a really cool mate, we're in the same RoAPL team) but I feel like this has been a clear lack of sportsmanship, not trying to hit and get the roll with Fire Blast. As I said before, usually I'm not the person who would get mad at this, but, as a DPP player, I think that this rule should DEFINITELY be changed, as dealing with this has just been a real bullshit. Having this said, I'm wishing him all the luck he deserves for the tour, but seriously, this is clearly unacceptable and I want the council to realize this. I'm out, peace
