      Correct. The tourney was absolutely dominated by Nicholas EXCEPT for Wolfey. They were close matches all 3 times as well, going 2-1. But taking Wolfe to the limit that many times really does say a lot about Nicholas' level of play; mostly that he was so good at the micro-decision making of combat, Wolfe had to win by focusing on plays that counter the most available plays as opposed to tunneling on singular options. @@crayons8693

      It's the same problem as basketball. Michael Jordan won three championships in a row, two separate times. No matter what LeBron James does, it's hard to compete with that. Ray Rizzo had a three-peat and retired early. Wolfe's dominance over time is very similar to LeBron. He will for sure need at least one more world championship. I personally consider the two players cups to be world championships for the respective players. So 3 for Wolfe and dominance over time could match Ray.

    • @luigimanzelli3786
      @luigimanzelli3786 Před 3 měsíci +11

      @@Leif3GHP it's worth mentioning that Ray won the first 3 championships, competitive was not as accessible back in the day, it was really hard to get your hands on a competitive team due to the fact that you had to manually farm EVs on wild encounters.
      Nowadays everyone can get a competitive team up and running in two hours, reason why the tournaments have a lot more partecipants too. Winning now is a lot more difficult than it was back when competitive was in its early years, i think that considering Ray even equal to Wolfe is mind blowing.

    • @Leif3GHP
      @Leif3GHP Před 3 měsíci +2

      @@luigimanzelli3786 I agree, but that's also a similar point to the basketball issue as elite athletes are less and less common the further you go back. You have to consider what someone accomplished in their time in context. There's also the matches between Ray and Wolfe to consider.
      Regardless, even in that time, there were plenty of people putting in the work. Accessibility notwithstanding. Wolfe won his world title before basically any of the modern accessibility features appeared as well. I learned about EV training in 2008 and had a team in a week, while doing university work. Wolfe is my GOAT, but you can't dismiss what Ray pulled off. On top of that it's incredibly important for your personal legacy to beat the guy who's next up while you're still playing. Ray did that. In football, people are saying Patrick Mahomes is the best football player they've ever seen, on pace to dethrone Brady as the best quarterback ever. But Brady was able to beat Mahomes twice in championship games as the transfer of the crown was happening. That's going to matter in the discussion. Wolfe inherited the crown, but he didn't take it. Gotta respect Ray.

      @@Leif3GHP yes but this is not sports, in sports you physically cannot keep up with next generation of athletes, this was a not a problem for Ray, he just retired cause he didn't feel like competing anymore, anyhow Wolfey's period of dominance is unmatched, the guy has been a world class player for 4 generations now, Ray didn't do that. Not that i'm disrespecting Ray, i just think that, achievment wise, Wolfey is too far apart, his consistency at the top is monstrous.

      More number of participants, since anyone can sign up. For World Championship only those who have qualified can participate. Hence there won't be as many people participating. So it is not a comparison of prestige or anything, just that this regionals had the most participants in history of VGC.

      Burning tera and trading one for one with an ogerpon turn 1 seems like a good trade to you? In the context of the battle it practically forced trick room farigiraf, ursaluna into tornadus- then Wolfe would have to make every single read perfectly for the next 4 turns to stall out trick room without KOing anything to avoid tera normal life orb ursaluna hypervoice one shorting the rest of Wolfe's team. The true genius of this play was recognising that even that endgame was winnable if he could position incineroar on the right fake out turn while preserving urshifu and to go for the close combat anyway to guarantee the victory if they predict the double up into the farigiraf predicting Wolfe to predict the predict the switch out into torn- that turn one didn't win Wolfe the game, put some respect on Aaron's name that trade looks awful for Wolfe at face value.
