small update + something i forgot
i'll actually make this a monthly thing because there's not enough stuff happening every week to make good threads.

kartana actually got knock off with the new move tutors and i totally forgot about that. not a super big change but it's pretty cool on the swords dance + darkinium z set because the base power difference between knock off and night slash is minimal and knock off is always useful to remove items. its also fine on scarf since some of the best switch ins to scarftana like celesteela really hate having their leftovers knocked off. i also heard some discussion about choice band kartana being better since knock off is a more spammable move, but i think that if i wanted to wallbreak with kartana i'd run swords dance and not choice band. not a huge change but its still a pretty cool option that i felt was worth mentioning.
