So having spent the past 4 games in a row on ranked being bodied by the same croagunk (rip matchmaking), I have a statement and a question.

Croagunk is a hell of a scummy dude if you're playing to win ahaha!

Also what are scizors approach options against zoning characters, mostly in the field phase but also in the duel phase versus suicune?

A lot of hover turns and prayer has been my answer so far.

In duel phase I usually alternate between hover and counter canceling forward, then try and tag them with a long range bullet punch

I'm rank d3 and I feel loving unstoppable. God bless Scizor's floating counter attack

I'm pretty sure I beat Dr. Rokso (the tournament attending one) twice in ranked, once when he was using his Garchomp. God I love this game.

We should set up a goon room

Oh yeah I'm fully aware it's not going to work against better players. I started doing it since I lost to someone doing the same thing and wanted to see how to deal with it.

Also that brings me to another question, is it ever better to block than just properly time a CADC? Obviously you take more damage from a grab, and there's piercing attacks, which you can still block, and Synergy Burst's are all piercing or grabs, so... I think I just answered my own question?

Against chandelure you need to block and walk up because all her attacks counter pierce.

air dashes tend to work very well against lasers too if you're playing a character that has one

Though make sure to mix up your approach because a good chandy will blast you right out of the air
