Counter the Pet Above (Forum Game)

Post by Happygilmore » May 26th, 2015, 5:19 pm

Counter that "blank" has been a fun forum game for years on many games like Pokemon. It also is very informative to many. I didn't see one anywhere so far.. so...

Format is simple, counter the pet above with a pet, than write your own to be countered.

Note: to counter means it needs to answer it 1v1 and live through all attacks. Obviously there is some RNG involved, but the counter should deal with the threat most of the time.

Bone Serpent (P/S)

Bone Barrage
Call Darkness
Nocturnal Strike

I'll see your Broken Serpent and raise you a:

Frostwolf Ghostpup (P/P) 1400/325/260, 211
Sneak Attack
Refuge
Ghostly Bite

You go first @260. Sneak Attack 646, Refuge, Ghostly Bite 690, Bone Serpent (P/S 1319 hp) is two shot 90% of the time. Sneak Attack mops up if miss. Could mess with Frolick too.

SlithershockElver P/P
Deep Bite
Dodge
Dive

Hard to predict Lil' Ragnaros skill order. Would probably go Dodge, Deep Bite fill until third round on Sons of Root for Dive.

I remember owning him with Immolate/Immolation/Nethergate compositions. (Corefire Imp/Netherspace Abyssal) but that's not 1v1 really.

Did you want a different P/S Bone Serpent counter suggestion?

Another counter is always useful to list even if its just the name an breed since not everyone has a particular counter. Also ou should list another battle pet you want countered by the next person in the chain. In other words each person posts 2 battle pets, one to counter the battle pet above and another to be countered by the one below.


I counter the Slithershock with

Jade owl (B/B)
Slicing winds
Adrenaline Rush
Lift Off

Also a great counter imo is Waterfly (P/B)

Alpha Strike
Healing Stream
Lift Off



Now counter...

Ore Eater P/P
Acid Touch
Shell Armor
Body Slam
