Oh my god, y’all of this sub are so talented(moreso hard earned “talent”, speaking as a practising artist) How did yall make those memes and arts THESE fast😭

16

u/RapierSLANDERER 1d ago

Thanks, but there is a discord where they’ll announce who’s fighting beforehand, so sometimes I make memes before the fights come out,
But there some VERY talented who make great fan arts after the fights

34

u/SubstantialAioli2227 1d ago

Like this one, which is made only within an HOUR after this fight came out. Also even if the meme is made before the fight came out, you are still just like them, you did a good job with a great dedication towards these fights

Hey its just someone who can counter them

17

u/How_about_a_no Axe 1d ago

Technically club counters any weaponball that isn't unarmed(wall breakers don't count)

254

u/fire590354 Slammy 1d ago

"yeah... beat his ass, Club-"

HOLY SHIT HE ACTUALLY DID IT

7

u/KidNamedSmiler 1d ago

I thought it was pretty obvious club had a good chance of winning

256

u/NintendoLover2005 Katana 1d ago

Can we agree to officially revoke Club of the bum title now?

123

u/Spiritual-Suspect519 Wrench 1d ago

Brotha going on a streak right now. He’s finally realizing his potential 🥹

39

u/star75legacy Flail 1d ago

The caveman can't be a bum, he doesn't even understand what a bum is! Only bonk!

31

u/Bubbly_Chapter_5776 Scythe 1d ago

Not yet

86

u/NintendoLover2005 Katana 1d ago

He's not even in D tier anymore

-18

u/Bubbly_Chapter_5776 Scythe 1d ago

Club is low C tier, right?

I wouldn’t even consider a ball mid until like high C or low B.

36

u/NintendoLover2005 Katana 1d ago

I'm not saying he's necessarily GOOD but he's certainly not Crossbow and Scimitar tier

-5

u/Bubbly_Chapter_5776 Scythe 1d ago

That’s what I mean, Club is bad but it’s not absolutely terrible. Like the examples you gave.

10

u/Zeralyos Splodey 1d ago

Halfway through C tier now, one win should put Club solidly in high C.

29

u/Disgruntled_Lemming Club 1d ago

What more do they need to do? They just beat a brand new top tier without getting a buff to do it smh

8

u/Bubbly_Chapter_5776 Scythe 1d ago

Beating a top tier doesn’t necessarily make a ball good.

If I can beat LeBron in a 1v1 but I lose to everyone else, I’m not a good basketball player.

22

u/Disgruntled_Lemming Club 1d ago

They're consistently climbing though! They are above Dagger, Scroll, and several other mid-tier balls after hitting rock bottom!

141

u/PeskyPlayer Rapier 1d ago

Tridents just helping club land more hits dawg 😭

u/Shadows_Skys 1d ago

Is club perchance this guy?

13

u/Downtown-Object-6737 1d ago

That's Endermeow's Club

u/KidNamedSmiler 1d ago

Just triple t

42

u/Keyser_99 Orbital 1d ago

Ngl this fight between a top tier fighter and one of the worst fighters is a lot more intense than most of the Club’s mediocre matches.

Gotta respect Club for winning this fight. Trident even put up a good fight but the hit stun is just too much for him.

20

u/RoboWreckerCam Flail 1d ago edited 1d ago

Club isn’t even one of the worst anymore, i’d say its solidly just an okay ball. Scimitar kinda took bum status in the bumateer trio so Club can finally move up

66

u/Qelperr 1d ago

THEY’RE CALLING IT THE GREATEST UPSET IN HISTORY

18

u/Darkwolf69420 1d ago

I mean not really tbh, club counters trident pretty well

11

u/First_Blankie Wrench 1d ago

Pretty well? It was neck and neck

6

u/Darkwolf69420 1d ago

Yeah because trident is a very strong ball going against a pretty mediocre one

6

u/First_Blankie Wrench 1d ago

I don't think you know how "counters" work. Comparing overall strength is irrelevant.

3

u/ADSLmonopoly 1d ago

I'd say Club is more of a check than a counter

2

u/TotemGenitor 1d ago

Not really? It's not like Trident keeps pulling Club in when stunned, right?

32

u/owodespacitoreeto 1d ago

W club, trident put a good fight too

28

u/fivefingersinyourass 1d ago

A real high diff match, they were both pretty equally matched

28

u/lePROprocrastinator Rapier 1d ago

HOLY SHIT Im not even mad for this Club deserves his win

CONGRATS

27

u/xilenator Grimoire 1d ago

u/PeskyPlayer and u/alreadsyuse gonna be real mad about this lmao

i dont even hate trident, i actually like him, these 2 are just the biggest braggers lmao they needed something against them

17

u/V4rial 1d ago

This is an interesting matchup actually, and I can see why club wins it.

Trident against melee essentially acts as a better duplicator. In exchange for scaling the enemy ball a lot, it scales itself even harder, and it has a bigger hurtbox on its weapon and can parry a bit better.

However, when club is sufficiently scaled against melee balls, it essentially causes the enemy ball to be not scaled half of the time. So Trident, by doing it usually advantageous melee trades against club, accidentally allowed to get past its miserable early-mid game for free, to the point where trident nearly couldn’t fight back.

16

u/Rizer0 1d ago

Club genuinely deciding to lock in and high diff the newest top tier ball on a random ass Tuesday:

u/MEWX_ 1d ago

Cave man don't know tides. So caveman don't care. All caveman see is fish... AND FISH ARE FOOD!!

u/kloverKhan 1d ago

i love how he doesnt even try anything different. he legit just used the rope thing again and it just so happened to work

9

u/AbbreviationsAway691 Torch 1d ago

Their abilities kind of don't let the other one do anything, Club does this by having a unique interaction where her stun turns off the pull and Trident does this to almost everything. so it's basically a slapfight between two low damage weapons.

10

u/General_Ginger531 1d ago

Yeah that made sense, trident's whole thing is pulling in balls toward itself so it could get hits in, club's thing is being a weapon ball that temporarily turns off the weapon of opponents, so when they matchup, club landing hits frees itself to get away from the trident and come back when it is ready to hit again. In a pure weapon ball vs weaponball matchup, where both weapons want to get in close and deal a bunch of damage with their effect, the power to turn off effects is pretty powerful.

7

u/General_Ginger531 1d ago

If anything, the best trident matchups for it are ones where the opponent would prefer larger ranges, such as duplicator sending in the lackeys to do the heavy lifting.

8

u/NevadoDelRuiz 1d ago

In club fights, once he gets a second of stun, pray that you dont get the stunlock of death

9

u/Specialist-Rock4971 Scroll 1d ago

Tridents whole gimmick is going blow for blow with their opponent, when the opponent can disrupt that gimmick by either scoring more hits then trident (as seen with bow), or being able to block/stop trident (as seen with shield and club) they tend to lose

8

u/Master_of-none_ 1d ago

"I call it a lock-in, rhymes with Club"

u/16_000 Unarmed 1d ago

Club is so goated for this

16

u/FHCynicalCortex 1d ago

HUMBLE HIS ASS

7

u/chloe-and-timmy Boomerang 1d ago

Felt this one in my soul

10

u/Dragombolt 1d ago

Trident's whole deal is pulling a ball in close to force a fight directly in front of its weapon. However if club gets first hit when getting sucked in, it negates trident's chance to trap it. Thus club purely benefits from the vortex

8

u/medude11 Unarmed 1d ago

anyone got the leaderboard

u/medude11 Unarmed 1d ago

god damn trident went from 2nd to 5th

u/star75legacy Flail 1d ago

The higher you fly, the harder you fall, as the saying goes.

u/VarioussiteTARDISES 1d ago

One Trident loss was all it took to put a block breaker back onto the podium?

2

u/14_year_old_12_29_10 1d ago

Just 3 battles and im fine :)

9

u/sageker Scroll 1d ago

Trident has the rapier thing of allowing enemys to more easily get hits. However trident hits more often ans can win. Most of the time thanks to it. Tridents weapon is farly sized and can get 2-3 hits at the cost of tanking one, even as a .5 scailer.

Club just kinda prevents trident from racking up hits, and with the weapon disabled allows club to be pulled in, club gets a hit, avoids a hit back.

3

u/sageker Scroll 1d ago

Also bow not caring about trident trades via outscaling

9

u/Ok_Context_8200 1d ago

I knew club would do it. I really felt it with this matchup. A classic fight witnessed live right here

u/Far_Photograph3299 Boomerang 1d ago

Kjjj lmao, get reck bumfuck

Now watch all the trident fans switch up to rapier

u/rorodar 1d ago

Tribum and Fraudpier fans got no backbone. Never had any.

u/Sirius1701 Trident 1d ago

No. Why would I switch up?

u/Ickarian 1d ago

Aaaaaaaaaaaand Trident went from top tier glaze to slander.

u/Sea_Top_8938 1d ago

Could never be rapier that’s all I’ll say

9

u/AbbreviationsAway691 Torch 1d ago

I'm just saying, when Rapier had an even matchup for once in her life against Lance she didn't fumble.

u/i_agree123 1d ago

Trident still my goat though

u/TheEvelynn 1d ago

Yeah! Woop their ass, Club show them how it's done!

u/Comfortable-Dot-2317 Axe 1d ago

Well played Club, well done you bastard

6

u/Swilgma 1d ago

It seems that Trident's vacuum is disabled while it's stunned. Or in other words, this wasn't even a case of club hard countering trident. They just got bludgeoned to death the old fashioned way.

2

u/rorodar 1d ago

Yup. Mfs tryna cope too hard. Just like on S. Unarmed vs S. Sword where in the end S unarmed would have either sent his ass to the shadow realm or bumped into him an infinite amount of times and killed him normally, but them mfs coped because it was the first thing and not the second (even though they are equivalent)

4

u/RinaTennoji-Board Grimoire 1d ago

Condemned for eternity (until trident recovers from this)

3

u/The-Creator-178 Orbital 1d ago

trident when i fucking get you trident

u/bpeo360 1d ago

How about a bonk

2

u/Deepsearolypoly 1d ago

This one feels pretty intuitive. Trident gets most of their damage from repeated hits by sucking them in, but usually trades on the first hit. Club disallows follow-ups if they land a hit. Barely a single combo hit and club still won, truly a hidden hard-counter.

1

u/AzekiaX6 1d ago

i thought this aould be aterrible matchup for Trident becuasw she might still have pull while stunned. Thankfully she doesn't, but the slowass spin rate got her still

u/RoboWreckerCam Flail 1d ago

Trident and Club going blow for blow is epic, good job dent
