If you want me to explain, then I must. First off, Pumpseed, while a fast denier, is countered by one of the most popular teams in the meta. Which is?! Wyrmlad, Eisul, and the one, the only, THALASSA! Why, if there’s the Honking and Hayman Ghost Carnival?! Well, most people won’t have those skills. And anyways, those skills are countered by Eisul, his worst nightmare. If Pumpseed does the honking on eisul, wyrmlad can clear it. If he does Hayman Ghost Carnival, Eisul will eat it up, and since it won’t affect wyrmlad, BOOM! CLEAR! Why is thalassa in this team, you ask? Well, because despite her smaller and less relevant speed stat, she can deny Pumpseed. She can trait disable him, so that her skills don’t miss, and then she denies him. Hornet is another counter, that can even replace wyrmlad here. He’s perfect, as he has 2 AoE NER skills, so that Pumpseed doesn’t do his black magic on them. The Kaiju and the lizard though(that’s what I’m going to call them, just get ready for the elite blog) can easily counter his 2 other main forms of deny(stam drain and cda), and especially hookuai here, he can probably kill Pumpseed in 1 hit with interruption, or kill him and or Cda him. It’s judt that there’s quite a lot of monsters that can counter Pumpseed. I know he’s insanely good, but someone just has to state his pretty obvious and prevalent counters nowadays. He’s so good though, that he deserves OP-, not OP.
