y0av: hey, I'm arguing with someone about something related to team playstyles (on which playstyle is bulkier), so to help me, would you please tell me if my next message is true?
ACakeWearingAHat: ok
y0av: bulky offense is a kind of offense that utilizes pivots, most of the time defensive ones (usually 2-3) to help with common attackers, while using attackers of many kinds to take down the opposing team,
ACakeWearingAHat: nah
y0av: wait what
y0av: when I say defensive pivots I mean defensive checks to common attackers that don't always have recovery
ACakeWearingAHat: bulky offense is just 6 mons that have at least some offensive presence but there is defensive synergy within it and there are switchins to shit
ACakeWearingAHat: bulky offense does not have passive mons
ACakeWearingAHat: generally
y0av: oh that's sort of what I meant, yeah
ACakeWearingAHat: balance has passive walls
ACakeWearingAHat: bo doesn't
y0av: balance basically is a team with a defensive core that is less passive than stall pokemon, and uses 1-2 breakers to help take down bulky playstyles and actually get damage done and a revenge killer/speed control to help beat opposing attackers (mostly sweepers) ?
ACakeWearingAHat: doesn't have to be that formulaic
ACakeWearingAHat: balance just has a balance of offense and defense
ACakeWearingAHat: simple as that
y0av: while BO basically is an offensive team with defensive synergy and switches to "shit", right?
ACakeWearingAHat: ya
y0av: thanks
