Time for the last buff package poll! Remember that these changes will impact Chromera. Here's the reasoning for both options on this slate:

There were a lot of Dark/Normal submissions, and choosing between them was honestly quite difficult. I ended up going with snake's due to community feedback, and the simplicity of the buff overall is a huge positive for it. This leans more into a specs/scarf set than current mera thanks to having a significantly stronger turn 1 click, and switcheroo, and initial Dark-stab is a great tool for forcing damage onto steels. While the 4x weakness to Body Press (and other fighting moves) is definitely a drawback, its one that the power increase of this submission definitely justifies.

Along with snake's submission, Amamama's is one of the most vouched for in this thread atm, and its not hard to see why. This keeps our current typing, and shifts us into a far more offensive direction with Nasty Plot and a significant speed increase. Ice Beam is added back, allowing for either Boomburst + Dark Pulse or Ice Beam + Tbolt sets, which adds a lot of ambiguity to setup sets, which is definitely appreciated. The speed increase also lets us leverage our bulk and typing better into Kartana, Astrolotl, and Blacephalon better.

This will be a single bold vote, which means that you vote for only one of the submissions. A typical vote might look like the following:
My Preferred Entry

If the voter wishes, he may post comments on his vote below the actual vote. Only the vote itself should be bold and none of the supplementary text should be bold.

CAP uses automated scripts to count votes. For this reason, it is very important for all ballots to be submitted correctly. If you do not compose a legal ballot, your post will be subject to moderation.
  • The scripts count bold words in ballots, so do NOT bold anything in your ballot other than the options you are voting for.
  • Do NOT put any formatting other than bold in your post.
  • Only one option per line.
  • Spelling of options must be EXACTLY correct and must match the spelling listed above.
  • Capitalization and spaces are ignored by the vote counting scripts, but you probably should not depend on it.
Composing a proper ballot is easy. Enter BBCode Edit Mode (the A in the upper right corner). Copy/paste the options directly from the OP to your ballot as plain unbolded text. Delete and/or rearrange the options to suit your preference and the poll type. Bold your vote text using bold tags or re-enter rich text mode, highlight your vote and click B. Spelling or formatting errors may spoil your ballot, so be careful!

CAP uses blind voting. Other people's votes won't appear in the thread, but they are counted and will be made visible at the end of the voting timeframe. For more information about this change, check out this PRC thread.

The voting options are:

Package 1 by snake_rattler
Package 3 by Amamama

This poll will be open for 24 hours.
