UStream is awful.

But still better than Twitch YouTube+Gaming

No, use Azuba or Hitbox. They both work well, although they're both still largely "projects".

Lol, eh, there are barely any streaming websites. Twitch was good before Google acquired them.
YouTube alternatives, however, are pointless and will shut down. ZippCast, apparently, has been stable for 5 months.
I don't see them using a streaming feature right now.

Doesn't this cake look delicious? Well, yeah, it is. Shame it's only a picture. :(

Meh, I don't use Twitch as much, but the audio / copyright thing really affects the streams.

Mega Mawile has it all. It has arguably the best defensive typing in the game, the best Attack stat in the game, a spammable STAB, wicked strong priority, good matchups vs. all teamstyles, the ability to sweep given but one free turn, and to lure and K.O. its counters while sacrificing almost no overall effectiveness. It obliterates defensive teams while simultaneously bringing offensive teams down to their knees. I could see people debating Aegislash's impact on the tier and whatever, but Mega Mawile is flat-out broken and therefore needs to be banned. - Smogon user.

Well, uh, I guess Mega Mawile is getting banned.
At least it can still be used in Pokémon Online, but it will be suspect tested in that simulator too.

Smogon has become a little ban-happy, didn't they?

Well when you're dealing with over seven hundred Pokemon you're bound to get that way.

True, but in previous generations I don't remember them ban that much, just some legendaries and Blaziken. But then again, that was to be expected with Mega Evolutions.

I think Talonflame's 4x weakness to Rock is what makes it not banned.

I've seen so many streams go bad on UStream from their outdated technology so many times before, lol.

And I'm not talking low budget smash streams, but big budget sports streams that I used to watch there (namely MMA and kickboxing back before certain sports were big enough to where multiple promotions got TV deals in America).

Well, MK8 online is getting fixed with an update. Don't have a Wii U, so I wouldn't know. xD

Yes, maybe. They're always ban-happy.

Is it that bad? Like, does it always lag?

Mostly the ones that got Mega Evolutions.

Hawlucha actually benefited from the Aegislash ban. Now it's a decent Pokémon.

It's surreal, because I remember Mawile once being a complete joke and the worst Steel type.

Lmao, yeah, in previous Pokémon games, it was a liability, now with its Mega Evolution, it's no longer a joke.

Half the time streams have troubles even showing video footage AT ALL for extended periods of time.

It's pretty much awful.

Like Limewire (which closed recently), it's a surprise it lasted at all given how poorly built it is.

Aegislash is pretty broken, you have to admit. It's a shame Mega Mawile has been banned but... it's pretty broken too. Talonflame won't get banned though. Gale Wings is OP, but Talonflame isn't. Stealth Rock destroys it.

Well yeah kinda, Aegislash most of the time seems like a 50/50 Pokémon to me, like if you predict properly you can wreck someone's team with it, but if you don't then he's usually the first to go down. But i guess if he has the ability to destroy the entire tier, and only having a few checks like Bisharp (no counters), then it is broken.

I really hate it when posts get messed up sometimes. At least that's fixed up now.

Seriously though, poor Twitch. I wonder what's next?

Yeah, I guess you're right. I always stuck with Doublade anyway. Didn't like the prediction aspect.
