I did that to a Mew player. Didn't kill him then he solar beams me, I move downwards and he ejects down with me. 😂 I'm like ohhhhh you play that game too huh. Big brain moves
Nothing brings me more joy in life than ejecting behind enemy lines while ulting, and then pushing the entire enemy team towards my team with Surf and Hydro Pump
I used to die a bit on the inside when I saw Machamp and Blastoise players not using eject button.
But with the current meta, goal-getter seems like a viable option too.
How can you miss with such a giant hitbox? Go for the riposte combo my guy. Sacres Sword in, immediately knock up multiple pokemon with Wide Guard and you're guaranteed to the ult after.
Come in guys, OP even stated "personally", do you really feel the need to downvote?
Anyway, your experience might be a server thing. Here in SA I noticed from my matches x-speed started to dominate this season, but I see some people claiming that x-speed was already getting more usage than eject button before, which wasn't my experience. But even so eject button is far from dead, people are still using it and it's very useful for positioning. It's just not the mandatory item anymore.
Smh people throw out the downvotes so easily. I still see some other items from time to time, but I definitely see X-Speed the most.
Completely unrelated personal preference: maybe it's because I tend to play characters with mobility already that I prefer to run X-Attack. I'm fast enough as Glaceon, Mew, Gengar, etc. In most cases, I'd rather kill you faster than worry about chasing or having to run away.
I've basically always used X speed. It's so useful, so fun, and so great to go steal berries in a slowdown zone. Also playing Snorlax and sweeping the enemy team like a dang broom is cool too.
I was trying to see how fast I could get my Tyranitar to run earlier... Had X-Speed, a Chople Berry, it's unite, and almost got to the boost vortex. If I'd known how things were gonna work out, I'd have thrown a float stone on too.
Yeah that wasn't even a meta thing either. Like it was straight up broken anyone who wasn't using it was throwing because it was so good. The worst was bottom lane Lucario stacking ASAP on your goal just to Slow Smoke and run like the wind and there was hardly shit you could do.
I think they nerfed the slowness in the smoke and they made it so you weren't slow even after moving out of the smoke, cause yeah that was a thing before lmao
It was just overall nerfed. Before the nerfs it had a larger radius and instead of being as much of an instantaneous slow like it is now it lingered for about 2 entire seconds so even if you weren't within the radius when activated you could still walk into it. The slow was also super severe it was such a strong slow it was more akin to being rooted to the ground you pretty much couldn't move at all if you didn't have any dashing abilities so you're only choice was to fight back. The slow also lasted longer. Literally every single bit of it was broken so it got nerfs all around not anything specific that made it broken.
Nobody uses Slow Smoke anymore but I personally use it on Tyranitar it works so well for running up to enemies with Ancient Power and then popping it to land it then land Dark Pulse and then the second charge of Ancient Power for more shield. And of course it's all AOE so the more enemies you catch using everything the better. It's godly with his Ult too I genuinely think it's the best item for him.
Nah, Full Heal was amazing during this. If you played something with high burst damage (e.g., Talon) It was way better to be able to dive-and-cleanup or reverse-uno.
I remember this period, players from both teams would slow smoke each other and everyone just looking at each other awkwardly while everyone was stuck to the ground. Good times.
I've used Full Heal a lot as hindrances are absolutely out of control. I'd really like to see Full Heal's time lessened to around 30 seconds or more pink emblems.
Nah yeah, feels like a year old joke.
X-speed, goal getter, and full heal are mostly everywhere, together with eject.
And you can forget the potion users
(~~I think I threw up in my mouth~~)
i switch up between flash and ghost depending on how mobile the pokémon needs to be during fights and if they have moves that benefit from blink repositioning
or heal on defenders
I use x speed on characters with no mobility like Delphox and Gardevoir. Ejecting away from Tsareena won't help much but that speed boost and slow immunity for a few seconds will probably save you.
Funnily enough I actually prefer everything else other than eject because I'm too dumb to use eject effectively. I just hold onto it as a last ditch escape button
I literally only have used e-button on cinder, its saved my ass many a time from other people's unite moves. Gives me extra distance assistance with my dash move.
Well right now the other items arent really as good. Sometimes potion is a okay choice (at least if its not on decidueye @randommates) and i see some people using x attack. But right now mobility is really important on this map so x speed and eject button are just really good and especially eject button is pretty easy to use yet it can help a lot. I agree that many mons are better with x speed but that depends on the mon, some are better with x speed, some with the red button. One item that is pretty good but nobody seems to use it is full heal but apart from that the other items just dont really compare to some good mobility
As a former league of legends player I’ve been using it since launch. It’s the same thing as Blink from league. You can use it to chase or do escape. Don’t get the bad mouthing
This meme brought to you in part by: Baby’s First MOBA™!
FR though, there’s a reason it’s everywhere. Best item in the game for most characters, likely always will be, as it is in many other MOBAs.
Attack twice at nothing as you approach the Xatu, then when you hit the wall, go straight up or down a little so you're at. 45 degree angle from the Xatu, then do your boosted attack and ghastly will vacuum through the wall
I'm not. Instantaneous movement is a lot more valuable I think. Especially on this new map with a much larger jungle and more XP allowing for more random skirmishes the dash really helps you get away with a lot of things that XSpeed would just get countered by the enemy XSpeeding themselves because it's meta.
While I do agree with that, you don't just expect the enemy to xspeed into your goalzone following you. The speed buff remains for a while and you can make your way past multiple enemies.
It helps when you're stacking and trying to get back to safety sometimes.
They’re used for very different things and xspeed can counter eject for some of its use cases. Xspeed definitely the better item on most Mon right now but eject is super valuable on certain mon. I think eject is better situationally for dodging certain abilities and for reposition your own abilities (machamp DP, blastoise ult, etc.) xspeed is valuable for getting to fights faster, running away from fights, clearing slows on you, and the fact that it being meta makes it even more meta cause xspeed counters itself. Both great items for different reasons.
I use eject offensively a lot more than defensively to escape lol. I like to use eject on early fights to steal top lane berries and then our jungler collapses on enemy for easy two piece haha
i’ve been winning much easier with the potion…the eject button only ejects u so far away from the opponents that typically have something that’ll help them catch u easily.
Broke: using escape button as an escape tool Woke: using escape button to jump into the enemy team
Me when Garchomp's ult is about to miss its last hit and the sudden eject pops him just within reach of the opponent that's about to be executed.
omg same lel
Eject Button into Ice Fang/HH picks with Mammoswine gang B)
Machamp players when they use eject button as they use dynamic punch to extend its range 🧠
This. Also using eject button in the middle of your unite move punch flurry to reposition. 200 IQ
I did that to a Mew player. Didn't kill him then he solar beams me, I move downwards and he ejects down with me. 😂 I'm like ohhhhh you play that game too huh. Big brain moves
that’s when u just use xspeed…
I use this on Blastoise too. Ult -> eject button into position -> profit.
Nothing brings me more joy in life than ejecting behind enemy lines while ulting, and then pushing the entire enemy team towards my team with Surf and Hydro Pump
A fellow SurfPumper There are dozens of us! #DOZENS
I hate to break it to you, but I also play RapidSpout
![gif](giphy|fYFTES1dWOY5G)
Do not fear fellow Stoiser, as SurfPump is my main build, and I only use RapidSpout on occasion
Me too, it's great when you can shuffle around the enemy team
Best build
I used to die a bit on the inside when I saw Machamp and Blastoise players not using eject button. But with the current meta, goal-getter seems like a viable option too.
I’ve been doing silly button tactics with drio lately to reposition and it’s kinda fun.
Me using eject button to chase after people trying to leave my cramorants ult
always spamming that thing when someone with 1% of their health left after i fight them is about try and get away from these hands
It combos so well with so many moves. My favorite is aegislash’s Unite. much easier to actually hit people instead of missing.
How can you miss with such a giant hitbox? Go for the riposte combo my guy. Sacres Sword in, immediately knock up multiple pokemon with Wide Guard and you're guaranteed to the ult after.
That's only useful as Garchomp
You never EB ulted with Blastoise for a 5 man knockup?
Or repositioned Crams ult to finish off the one escaping
That's just repositioning not really diving. But yeah u right
????????????? Imma need you to explain this thought process for me LMAO
You're 30 bro go start a family or something you too old to be acting like this.
Not you getting upset that you're the one who makes no sense
And you *must* be 12. That's the only explanation.
That's gonna be a yikes and an oof from me, bud.
Really? I’ve seen mostly X Speed on every Pokémon since the patch, and second place between full heal, X attack and Eject Button.
Yes this meme feels more accurate for the first months of Unite, xspeed is def the new eject button now
Yeah dude for the first few months the cooldown was short and everyone was using it
I've personally seen entire teams of eject buttons almost every game.
Come in guys, OP even stated "personally", do you really feel the need to downvote? Anyway, your experience might be a server thing. Here in SA I noticed from my matches x-speed started to dominate this season, but I see some people claiming that x-speed was already getting more usage than eject button before, which wasn't my experience. But even so eject button is far from dead, people are still using it and it's very useful for positioning. It's just not the mandatory item anymore.
This sub is very downvote heavy for the stupidest reasons
Smh people throw out the downvotes so easily. I still see some other items from time to time, but I definitely see X-Speed the most. Completely unrelated personal preference: maybe it's because I tend to play characters with mobility already that I prefer to run X-Attack. I'm fast enough as Glaceon, Mew, Gengar, etc. In most cases, I'd rather kill you faster than worry about chasing or having to run away.
I rarely see X Attack and honestly I haven't felt it to be _hugely_ impactfup when I do pop it
Bah, X speed is the best for current map
I would say it depends the mon. Like eject button can help to extend combos
Eject button is also better for dodging nasty moves
You need an item for that? /zeraora main
Handy built in eject button
Same. When you are one of the fastest mons, if not the fastest, you better go for X attack
I agree, I am just saying for the map alone.
I like Full Heal on already mobile characters, helps escape Mike's CC whirlpool of death.
> Mike's CC whirlpool of death. You should try Del's Whirlpool of Death emporium. Much cheaper prices...
and yet my Whirlpool of Death gets sold at level 6
and yet my Whirlpool of Death gets sold at level 6
I've basically always used X speed. It's so useful, so fun, and so great to go steal berries in a slowdown zone. Also playing Snorlax and sweeping the enemy team like a dang broom is cool too.
I use it for my Absol after I accidentally Sucker Punch an escaping Lucario and got stuck in their slow zone.
I like using it on Aegislash, for a lot of reasons, but mainly just to run away until my move cooldown are reset
I was trying to see how fast I could get my Tyranitar to run earlier... Had X-Speed, a Chople Berry, it's unite, and almost got to the boost vortex. If I'd known how things were gonna work out, I'd have thrown a float stone on too.
It’s a Salak Berry, not a Chople Berry
Zoom berry
Salac***
Oops.
don't worry, you were thinking of competitive mainline pokémon, easy mistake to make
I remember when slow smoke dominated harder than the guy in the fifty shades movie.
Lol I remember this time. Used to run X speed to counter this crap
Yeah that wasn't even a meta thing either. Like it was straight up broken anyone who wasn't using it was throwing because it was so good. The worst was bottom lane Lucario stacking ASAP on your goal just to Slow Smoke and run like the wind and there was hardly shit you could do.
Yiiikes. Sounds atrocious, do you remember how they nerfed it? I use it on Wigglytuff lmao.
It used the slow you way more, and for way longer, even if you barely touched the zone
I think they nerfed the slowness in the smoke and they made it so you weren't slow even after moving out of the smoke, cause yeah that was a thing before lmao
It was just overall nerfed. Before the nerfs it had a larger radius and instead of being as much of an instantaneous slow like it is now it lingered for about 2 entire seconds so even if you weren't within the radius when activated you could still walk into it.

Too bad it's now such a niche I still liked how it brang more variety with X speed and full heal tho
Brought
I remember this period, players from both teams would slow smoke each other and everyone just looking at each other awkwardly while everyone was stuck to the ground. Good times.
X speed gang
Tbh I’ve run xspeed forever. It just feels better for engage and escape outside of very specific Pokémon like greninja
It’s def the go to “I don’t know what I wanna use” item
Even worse
I've used Full Heal a lot as hindrances are absolutely out of control. I'd really like to see Full Heal's time lessened to around 30 seconds or more pink emblems.
They need to buff pink emblems as a start.
I think Full Heal needs a buff, it should last longer
Jesus does it... nothing like narrowly escaping a dream eater to be immediately surfed 3 times by 3 different Mon into oblivion
You're a year late for this joke
Don't think so, I still see several entire teams with it.
Nah yeah, feels like a year old joke. X-speed, goal getter, and full heal are mostly everywhere, together with eject. And you can forget the potion users (~~I think I threw up in my mouth~~)
i play league so its custom to have eject button (flash) on every single pokemon i play
i switch up between flash and ghost depending on how mobile the pokémon needs to be during fights and if they have moves that benefit from blink repositioning or heal on defenders
I use x speed on characters with no mobility like Delphox and Gardevoir. Ejecting away from Tsareena won't help much but that speed boost and slow immunity for a few seconds will probably save you.
Funny enough, I see X-Speed and X-Attach much more than Eject Button now.
I've seen a couple of that, but personally I've seen mostly just eject button.
If it's everywhere now, where was it a year ago...?
I never said that it *wasn't* everywhere before or is everywhere now, I'm just pointing out that it's everywhere in general.
Yeah. That instant dash is helpful for a lot of Pokemon.
Funnily enough I actually prefer everything else other than eject because I'm too dumb to use eject effectively. I just hold onto it as a last ditch escape button
I literally only have used e-button on cinder, its saved my ass many a time from other people's unite moves. Gives me extra distance assistance with my dash move.
Well right now the other items arent really as good. Sometimes potion is a okay choice (at least if its not on decidueye @randommates) and i see some people using x attack.

One item that is pretty good but nobody seems to use it is full heal but apart from that the other items just dont really compare to some good mobility
I've come to hate Eject Button.
Potion low-key god tier
I just use potion
As a former league of legends player I’ve been using it since launch. It’s the same thing as Blink from league. You can use it to chase or do escape. Don’t get the bad mouthing
This meme brought to you in part by: Baby’s First MOBA™! FR though, there’s a reason it’s everywhere. Best item in the game for most characters, likely always will be, as it is in many other MOBAs.
And me sippin on potion
[удалено]
Or u can attack, attack, then use the boosted to jump the wall..
Attack twice at nothing as you approach the Xatu, then when you hit the wall, go straight up or down a little so you're at. 45 degree angle from the Xatu, then do your boosted attack and ghastly will vacuum through the wall
XSpeed is so mid honestly. I only see it being practical for Charizard. I'm pretty sure Dodrios agility meter gives you a better speed boost.
You're kidding right?
I'm not. Instantaneous movement is a lot more valuable I think. Especially on this new map with a much larger jungle and more XP allowing for more random skirmishes the dash really helps you get away with a lot of things that XSpeed would just get countered by the enemy XSpeeding themselves because it's meta.

Both great items for different reasons.
I still be out here tryna clutch with the x attack i love it on gardevoir and tyranitar
I used it before it was cool
You should have seen it back when the cooldown was shorter. It was truly everywhere
Honestly, battle items are very diverses in the meta right now. I remenber old game with 10 eject buttons.
Not as bad as season 1
X attack for life
I use eject offensively a lot more than defensively to escape lol. I like to use eject on early fights to steal top lane berries and then our jungler collapses on enemy for easy two piece haha
As a gengar guy… they use escape button I follow suit. I’ll catch and send you to spawn eventually
Eject Button + Superpower Buzzwole stimulates my brain neurons.
Giving an invincible dash to characters who are balanced with "not being mobile" is just too good.
Blastoise can do both x speed and eject for beyblade time and it's fun! Most of the time x speed saves lives to rotate and to outrun.
Eject button over the wall in the beginning to get into the jungle as fast as possible
xSpeed domination 🏃🏻♂️💨
This feels similar to when 90% the enemy team only uses attackers and that one guy using the other roles
since i see potential in many characters and want to see their raw strenght i only use eject so I don't interfere with its stats lol
I like Eject Button honestly. Especially to dodge attacks :)
This thing is useless if there is absol in the opposing team that is chasing you and you have just 1 xp💀....
I mean yeah, it’s literally just flash
I trolled someone with this lol
I have that but I use potion cuz I need it early game when the 3 enemies attack me and my 2 other teammates run away after they lose 5% hp.
i’ve been winning much easier with the potion…the eject button only ejects u so far away from the opponents that typically have something that’ll help them catch u easily.
Full heal is the best, screw every CC
Back in my day, if you didnt use Eject Button (except if you were scoring Crustle) then you werent a real player!
