>>56965903I like /tcgp/, it feels right
>>56965903Got super lucky with this. literally never happens for me. But the old stinker finally came through for us.https://files.catbox.moe/7xdou2.mp4
Getting 4 energy with venu is so damn hard but atleast im winning a bit more. Atleast blastoise and Zard have easy access to energy, Liligant sucks. Its a stage 1 with poor bulk and needs 2 energy.
>>56965910I liked /ppg/ while we had it but it wasn't worth the autism it caused to shit up the start of every thread. Fuck those leaks, none of it is real, anyway, you degenerates
>>56965916Liligant is definitely a trap
>>56965916get rid of the amber. replace it with sabrina or another x speed. if you feel you need a stall, add kang, tauros or snorlax.
>>56965928Funny you say that, the only difference between this list and the last one is like the one fossil, and now he says he's winning
>>56965930>Funny you say that, the only difference between this list and the last one is like the one fossil, and now he says he's winningthere's better than old amber though, if the anon is using it for stall.
I changed my list from regular Charmander to FA Charmander and now I'm winning
>>56965930I get sabrina’d less just because of this fossil, it’s definitely helping a little bit.
>>56964944
I want more cosmetics. they need to just paste all the official pokemon tcg accessories into pocket. >>56965911nice, congrats
>>56965916>no SabrinaI don't think that I have ever seen a decklist that doesn't run Sabrina.
>>56965942>midras exfree win if you ask me
>>56965945Theres no room for it here, how am i gonna find time to heal with erika and also use my psychic mistress
>>56965945grass players can only have one waifu in their decks
>>56965942Lapras is only good if you get 3 water energy misty on it. 140hp is a joke
>>56965942The master of trolling, look at all that seetheI kneel anon
>>56965953>>56965956https://www.pokemonmeta.com/top-decks/community-tournaments/team-rocket-poket-cup-(150-players)/11/venusaur-ex/oskimalaguista/elUa6Click "Next". All of these lists run Sabrina.
>>56965945I don't either, because the thought I had was you literally just don't care what they bring in cuz venu can tank and heal most every hit, and eventually sabrina won't matter cuz they'll all be one shot and you outlasted them to win
>>56965958all water decks basically require you to have 2 misty's in your deck. I have no misty so i no run any water decks.
>>56965983Misty fails half the time and water is one of the strongest types. The best card in the game is Starmie and it only requires 2 energy. I have run water without Misty and its great.
What kinda reddit cope is noex que?
>>56966009EX sucks. I understand people not wanting to use them but for me the fun is seeing EX cry when I beat them with my off-meta brew.
>>56966009People have wanted no-EX format in the physical game for over a decade now. This isn't exactly a new trend.The old Online client used to have a ladder where you could only use structure decks that was really popular for the same reason. It's a totally different game when you don't have pushed EX cards one-shotting everything by turn 2.
>>56966009card games having multiple formats is a concept older than you anon
>>56966044Sure wish a CERTAIN card game would learn to make multiple official formats.
>>56966009wait until you look at the codes in the op
Is there any way to make the inputs faster? Plus, anywhere I can see the best combinations of double-elements?
>>56966052It's 15+ years too late. yugioh dug its own grave and is now laying in it.
>>56966052Did the multchummy line get released on MD yet? I might go back if they're rearing up to ban the roach
>>56966070Japan has 3 different mulcharmy and only have Maxx C at 2. It's gonna be at least 2 years before they finally work it down to a ban in MD.
why exactly is gengar "psychic" and not dark in this game
>>56966052>players want a retro format?>lololol we'd rather lose 90% of our playerbase instead!
>>56966079psychic = psychic and ghostdark = dark and poison
>>56966079ghosts are psychic in pokemon. but gengar has gotton both psychic and dark cards in the tcg
>le bisaflor ex>erika>erika>potion>potionfuck off
>>56966057>see the best combinations of double-elements?I don't think that's a thing in any card game, but good rule of thumb is try not to build around cards with more than 2 specific color requirements as it's very unlikely you get the right requirements to power it on time. 2 pips is a stretch, but doable in slower decks as long as it's the only one that requires 2For example the main fat boy only has one fire requirement, and only needs two to cast in a row, and at 4 energy in likely(!) to get at least one fire. The corals I don't care as much to power up, and misty helps get the 2 water I need if I get lucky and do want to attack with him
>>56966088>LOOK MOM I POSTED IT AGAIN
>>56965903How are you guys doing in the tournament so far? I've gotten really lucky with matchups and draws so far..
>>56966033Structure decks only and other limited formats are always fun. Challenges different skills from standard format.
>opponent just happens to have double ralts into kirlia into gardevoir perfectly drawn
>>56965982Sabrina is also good at stalling. I eventually started fitting them into most my Venusaur decks.
>>56966052What other formats would even work with YGO?
>>56966137>stallingyou want to be killing with it not just slowing them down
>>56966088>launch md>drytron at full power>edilich stun with every floodgate and vanity emptiness>virtual world (and fluffal) with true king of calamityAhh good times, im still fond of virtual world
>>56966141Doesn't really matter with Venusaur versus most decks.
Glad it’s over because my final win was a total disgrace.I am just a little ahead and the faggot starts timer stalling each turn to the last second and using every card they can.I didn’t Sabrina, I didn’t red card, it was just me winning is all.Didn’t expect such scrub attitude from a Japanese player.
>>56966115I have yet to even play a single real game.
Why does she dress like this bros? She's hosting a tourny... THIS IS NOT APPROPIATE!!
>>56966115What deck you on anon? Break a leg bro
>>56966079Ghosts have moved around types in the tcg.
>>56966156Arbok weezing
>>56966154because sad men will give her money for looking pretty
>>56965916>random fossilwtf are you doing anon
>>56966154The whoring allows her to fund the tournaments and let us have free entry anon
>>56966152Jap players are the ones that thank the least in my experience. Which is weird because I don't even play a meta deck
>>56966115There's a tournament?
>>56966079>Hit a ghost with a ghost attack (super effective)>Hit a ghost with a dark attack (super effective)>Hit a psychic with a ghost attack (super effective)>Hit a psychic with a dark attack (super effective)>Both types have advantage over fightingthey’re practically the same anyways
>>56966154
>>56966176Big 2000 person tournament going on right now
>>56966003>>56965983I don't need Misty in my deck since I also run Starmie.I just have her in there because I like looking at her.
>>56966141Ideally you want the kill but sometimes if you don't stall you die. Sabrina is very versatile.
>>56966060yugioh is fucked after xyz, they put too many new mechanics. that and putting gooner pedo-loli bait in killed it for me
>>56966183she's alright looking but it's not sabrina without the hime cut
>>56966110But do we have types that synergize better than the other? For example, I think in Magic, RED (aggro), doesn't synergize well with control (BLUE, WHITE, BLACK).
>>56966057>anywhere I can see the best combinations of double-elementsPersonally, I think that if AI were trained on millions of Pokemon TCG Pocket matches against itself, then if the true meta deck isn't Pikachu or Mewtwo, I think it would be Fighting and/or Dark. Fighting his so many things for weakness it's crazy. Dark hits some really big threats for weakness.
I've had some fun with Weezing koga venuex which also runs dark energy. since venu line uses half colorless, it usually doesn't screw me over. It's held back by the 20 card limit though, just no room for everything I need. I've also considered putting a kanga in but I don't have one.
>>56966157Ghost types have been consistently psychic energy, it’s poison types that have multiple personality disorder
>>56966187When Misty works it's broken, when it doesn't work you still have one of the best decks in the game.
>>56966170Which deck?
>>56966208It's overwhelming with Starmie, not only is that one of the fastest cards in the game, Misty just puts salt on the wound with making it even faster.
>>56966192Links are "fine" but Pendulums deserve all the shit they get.Rush localization never ever btw.
>>56966205Oh you're right, my bad I was thinking of poison
>>56966154she loves showcasing the small amounts of cleavage she has whenever hosting a tournament.too bad her casting is complete dogshit just repeating what's happening on screen like her brain is empty
>>56966216Nidofamily
>>56966154Funny enough, I think she is trying to look offical wearing a fancy dressThe thing is like half the appeal of fancy dresses like this is the sex appeal
>>56966225>castingnigga what else are you supposed to do in a game like this? 20 CARD decks and nonstop coin flips, like what possibilities are you even supposed to commentate about.
Eat shit dragonite fags
>>56966236that deck is so sad, even when dragonite comes out you can just lose because of the draco meteor not killing anything
>>56966242Dragonair is actually a lil scary thoughI've got beat plenty because of that beatstick
>>56966242>>56966248Dragonite Ex for the minisetTRUST THE PLAN
content doko?
>>56966248it needing 2 different energy is so unnecessary, why not just make dragon type energy and cards?
Playing an inferior water deck now cause I don't have Starmie EX but I was just tired of playing pikazap
>>56966187mogged
>>56966254I think it's a bit of flavor and soul that Dragon types require different energies
My zard deck looking goood
>>56966176every week
Anyone know how best to toggle between 2 accounts on an android phone? From what I'm seeing online you have to uninstall and reinstall because there's no logout, but that just sounds so annoying to do every time. Is there a way to make a sub-area on my phone where I can download a 2nd copy of the app to just have each app loaded to a different account?
>>56965630I'm starting to think 10 pack pulls are a scam. Not only are you NOT guaranteed at least one 4diamond/1star when doing a 10 pull, almost EVERY screenshot I see of someone pulling a god pack is from a single pack. I think I'd rather pull 10 singles and get nothing then get the dopamine of buying 10 and getting nothing.
There's no way Misty has a 50/50 to land headsMore like 20% chance for heads
>>56966254It's just a thing carried over from ptcg. Dragons used to be colorless and needing 2 different elements for their attacks.
>>56966225Why don't you battle her. She prefers playing in the tournaments but she's stuck hosting this one because no one else will host and judge.
>>56966270Because nobody does 10 rolls, as it's actively detrimental when looking for a few specific cards
>>56966263100% you don't need meowthDrawing cards in this game isn't like mtg or ygoThe game ends after 3 pts after all
>>56966278nta but I did 2 10 packs and got nothing good.
>>56966200That's just not true, theres been red combinations with every color you just mentioned in dual and tri color decks that have seen play at some pointFocus more on pairing good pokemon with each other that synergize well, weezing goes in a million decks because he stalls and deals good chip dmg for a heavy hitter to clean up
144/150
>>56965903I am actually doing really well so far in this tournament. I just hope I don't run into charizard decks. Already won against a counter deck once or twice, now being rewarded with preferred match ups.
>>56966270I did a 10 pack one time and I got nothing but a Wigglytuff EX. I have 3 Wigglytuff EXs now.
>>56966279I think stage 2 decks that are all in on their big Mon like one or two extra draws to get closer to pulling the right cards they need
>>5696628020 packs does not a God pack make.
Just got a Gengar EX, is it good
>>56966270I did a ten pull of Pikachu once and got 2 Pika EX and one immersive Pika EX (the immersive and one regular EX were in the last pack together)
>>56966301it's not complete trash
>>56966159Make us proud weezing Chad, ez mewtwo match ups await you I believe
>>56966295I feel that every deck runs 2x RC and 2x Oak so you can get punished heavily when you have 5+ cards and you lack the damage output to put your opponent on the backfoot in which fire decks's strength is surprise +30 dmg
The last 7 Misty's I used it was always tails right away
>>56966325>every deck runs 2x RCPoor anon is so traumatized he sees his demons wherever he goes
>>56966328surely the next one is heads
>>5696632850% for at least 1 energy, I'll take it.
>>56966306I have faced 1 genger, 1 machamp, 2 metwos so far. please let me not face charizard
>>56966328I'm confident in flipping heads!

>>56966328
>>56966356>mistykeks losing their mind gamblingYou love to see it
>>56966358Melmetal is just 10 hp away from being a great card
>>56966356If you goon to Misty for 10 minutes a day you'll flip heads. Try it out.
>>56966356One less Mistyfag? Let’s goooo
>>56966356>play incredibly volatile deck>be surprised when it's volatilewhy are people like this?
>>56966422There's no way you would flip tails 9 times in a row
>>56966358>meltan dies to rapidash if you go second>melmetal dies to rapidash+blaine if you go firstBlaine is too powerful, it can even beat water.
>>56966430correct, I'm not an amateur coinflipper
Anyone having success with non-meta decks?
>>56966445Sure, whenever the enemy gets fucked by bad luck drawing or flipping coins and you are above average lucky
>>56966403A non gen I card is not allowed to be good. Except Waifugard.
Do you get hard when your mon gets flicked away by her?
>>56966445as soon as you have success with it, it's a meta deck
Does melmetal reduce damage for each individual hit from multi hit attacks?
>>56966445Yeah, they're pretty fun, pocket is low powered enough you can make any brew work fairly well
>>56966454no one ever uses sabrina against me because I have a weezing on my bench
>>56966437it one shots my Staryu and starmie ex
>>56966236Deck looks interesting, list?
>>56966467No such thing as multi hit. Damage is calculated in bulk.
>>56966430Improbable =/= impossible. Flipping 9 heads is 4 times more probable than pulling a god pack
>>56966445Depends on how non-meta you want to get. Koga and Blaine are both viable with some great matchups against Mewtwo and Pikachu
>>56966478I had a battle just like that. The opponent missed two Missty, otherwise I would have lost.
What are these total points?
>>56966498points are when you kill an enemy pokemon
>>56966498the points you get for knocking out pokemon
>>56966498here *unzips*
>>56966498Points from fainting pokemonEx=2Reg=1
>>56966430How do I know you don't play Misty. It's always tails when you need it, then you get a heads explosion when it's unnecessary.
I keep running into mewtwo players in the tournament :*(
>>56966498I wonder if through some kind of formula with wins and total points combined you could estimate a win rate of a person
>>56966524you are using arbok and weezing right?
>>56966445No, you can't match Pika and Starmie without a meta deck. Mewtwo is slow and can be managed.
Holy shit I just opened this
>>56966539nice. now you just need another one
>>56966530Yes!
>>56966445I've been having fun with this, but it'll be harder to play now that fire is more popular than ever.since beedrill only needs one energy to be live, the dual typing energy only fucks you over rarely instead of often.
>>56966545based, good luck
>>56966539They should have made the immersive cards the rarest ones considering they look the bestWeird decision from them
>>56966430Correct, the first flip is always heads unless you're bad.
>>56965903my favorite thing about arbok is that it's really really easy for your opponent to misplay into it and just lose the game because of the trappings
>>56966552How about changing Beedril for Pidgeot?
>>56966584Pidgeot auto loses to pika, but I can at least cope with beedrill.
Can't Retreat
>>56966552Seems like you waste a lot of energies
>>56966578yeah retreat locking is strong in pokemon. there are decks that are dedicated to just trapping pokemon for the entire match and just milling the opponent in the nonpocket tcg.
>7 turns in, 7 pokeballs and 1 oak usedThis deck is ASSSSSSS
...
>>56966552i wanted to try a beedrill deck but i don't have the cards, of rapidash + blaine with beedrill, and then like tauros to round things out, it sounds like a pretty fun aggro deck
>>56966617>I only have one blainerapidash/beedrill sounds like a fun deck, ill have to give it a try. Thanks for the idea
>>56966615You got the 1/5, how lucky

>>56966617basically this but beedrill instead of pidgeot line, no ability but the beedrill line doesn't get cucked by electricity
>>56966613>two red cardsBro, your fossils?
>>56966664This feels slow and low hitting.
Fuuuuuuuuuck.
>>56966639i think one blaine might work fine as is, you might not generate fire on curve so you don't need blaine immediately, i was thinking tauros as a backup energy dump if you don't have the right energy to power stuff
>>56966613>run basics that aren't MewtwoEx and Ralts>complain that you draw basics that aren't MewtwoEx or Ralts
I bought the Black Friday gold guys.Opened a shit-ton of Charizard packs.It felt good.
>>56966471holy trainers anon
>>56966665I needed every single gio and a blaine or two to win a lot of games exactlydeck building is a little rough when you have to build around a stage 2 aggro mon, since you need to stall to find it and deal enough dmg to make it matter
>>56966725oh wrong tag, meant for >>56966669
What is the point of this? Like an honor system is going to work in a competitive game.
>>56966732TCG player should give more experience.

When is the mini coming again? I can't think of a 4th booster mon in Kanto apart from Eevee EX or Mew EX.
>>56966749December 16th I think. Hoping for Dragonite EX
Holy SOVL
>>56966745Don't listen to this anon, keep using Snorlax, I need your Snorlax so I can set up for 4+ turns.
>>56966655Erika and its not even close
>>56966760I always wondered does ditto's thing need the exact printed energy cost to copy an attack?or just the same number of energy
>>56966714What'd you pull, piggy?
>>56966749Snorlax Ex
isn't charmeleon supposed to be in the regular rarity wonder picks right now?I haven't seen this mfer yet
>>56966772exact energy cost.the correct type + the correct amount.You can pick any mon from your opponents side though.
>>56966773I hadn't opened any Charizard packs at all before that so basically 90 percent of the pack.Best pull was Immersive Charizard EX, my second immersive. Just got the Mewtwo EX immersive left and I'll have all 3.
>>56966772You need to have the proper colors.
I wish Bug and Rock got to have more distinct identities in the TCG. Ice and Fairy get to have Metal weakness to set them apart from Water and Psychic, and Flying has always gotten to have its own niche within Colorless. Ghost I could see needing some distinction too, now that resistance isn't here to make them any different than Psychic. The direction they've gone with the homogenized weaknesses is kind of lame, since it's another thing that could be leveraged for balance
>>56966749>4th booster4th and 5th. Unless it's been datamined, I'm 99.9% certain it's gonna be a 2 pack "mini" set. This game is far too jewish to give us a single pack set.Pokemon in general has way too many pairs of box legendaries that would fit perfectly for 2 pack sets for them to pass up.
>>56966772Proper colors>2 purples + any 2 for Mewtwo Ex>2 reds + any 2 for Chari ex>2 yellows for pika
>>56966743exactly, so why bother having a selection. They should have a ranked and unranked mode instead.
>>56966528ALWAYS ROUND UPIt's difficult because one could win via concession at any time, or by reaching three points. For sake of estimation lets say that all our wins come from concession at zero points, one point, two points, or by reaching three points, in something like a 10/40/40/10 split:Step 1: MULTIPLY the number of wins by 1.5; this gives us the number of points dedicated to wins.Step 2: SUBTRACT the number of points dedicated to wins from the points total; this gives us our points dedicated to losses.Again this is difficult, but less so, because losing naturally at one point is the same as conceding at one point, and you will never lose at three points. Lets assume that the loss split is 20% zero points, 40% one point, and 40% two points, due to the frequency of EX usage on both sides.Step 3: MULTIPLY the number of points dedicated to losses by 0.6; this gives us an estimated number of losses.Step 4: ADD the number of wins to the estimated number of losses; this gives us an estimated total number of games played.Step 5: DIVIDE the number of wins by the estimated total number of games played. MULTIPLY this number by 100; this gives us our estimated winrate.

That's it? Just a wonderpick event so the ftps have a 1 in 5 chance of pulling ArcanineEX?

>>56966809I'm genuinely kinda retarded, can you re-explain this image but with variables so I can try to do it myself? Thanks.
>>56966809Also I just compiled this on the spot. If you're dogshit at the game, set the wins multiplier (1.5) anywhere between 1.1 and 1.7 depending on how dogshit you are at this children's game. Lower number is more dogshit.
>>56966831The Venusaur event is gonna be way easier than the Lapras one in general. You don't have to worry about the NPC randomly flipping 3 heads on Misty.
>>569668361 million dollar tourny btw
>>56966556I think they deserve being more common. The illustrations for the Pikachu and Mewtwo are kind of ugly. The Charizard illustration is great but even then when actually in play the full arts like that look kind of busy and over detailed. The regular exs unironically look better even with their Planeta-slop CG illustrations. Anyways everyone pulling illustration rares and thinking they found something worth coveting is a nice psychological trick to keep people playing
>>56966814>>56966828don't worry bros shadowverse 2 delayed itself for more than half a year just so the competition all kill themselves and they can swoop up the players

>>56966841True, looking at the deck for the expert difficulty, they're showing some mercy only putting one copy of Erika and no potions. Some early game Kangaskhan flips could be annoying but nothing we can't handle
I just played the most kino match in my life, we took about 25 turns in total flipping various tokens at each other>>56966772Ditto needs to match exact printed copy to attack
>>56966802If you use it on Pika does it also take into account how many benched pokemon you have for damage?
>>56966859>random minion spawns>random hero placement>random power ups>random shop itemsall on top of being a card game, something that is already random in itself. The biggest complaint about Hearthstone at the time was the heavy use of RNG in cards, then Valve comes along and makes a game that amps this up x100.
>>56966859>Runeterraoh fuck I forgot about that game. what a horrid abomination of a card game.
>>56965903Who else still in tournament?
>>56966904I missed 3 rounds to help my wife with something but now im back and continuing to play, just a shame that i know i cant top cut anymore
love this little nigga so muchquite literally a dark horse
>>56966838Yes King.>>56966809
>>56966912And here I thought he was a Zebra!
>>56966919Thanks bro I got it now. I don't know why I was subtracting most damage dealt by total points but I get it now.
>>56966601Excess energy means you can cut x speed
>>56966809>111 wins>288 points>comes to 60% winrateSounds about right, I only really play meta or off meta designed to win games against meta. I do remember some solid losing sprees testing meme/unoptimized decks so the exact winrate could be like +5/- 15% if I lost more than I remembered
>>56966919This formula is useless. Some opponents let you take three or four points, some concede before you've landed a single KO
>>56966938 Zebras are just striped horses
>>56966952Some losses the opponent might also let you get 4 points to compensate, obviously it's just an approximation, but it doesn't look awful
>>56966904What tournament?
>>56966957
>>56966878Pika needs exactly lightning units on the bench for his attack
>>56966959I think it's awful. It's nothing to get a string of zero or one point wins where they concede when their hand sucks or their ex is threatened in a checkmate situation or they simply don't want to play the type matchup or they're tired of playing against your meta deck or they flip tails with Misty on turn one or they disconnect before the match even starts because they live in Taiwan or...
What's the best mewtwo deck? And don't say double fossil.
>>56966910at least you have a loving wife anon
>>56966992Check it out: Mewtwo ex + Garde
>Have shit luck in WP/Packs>Swipe to get more packs>Stop swiping to allocate funds to another gacha>Suddenly start getting full arts and winning my WPsBros... It's rigged to milk whales...
>>56967011thats what you get for checking on pocket!
>>56967011Somebody has to support the game it's expensive to develop so much content
KILL ALL MISTYFAGS
>>56966528Considering that Articuno EX Misty auto-concede meme exists, probably not.
THERES STILL NOTHING TO DO THERES STILL NOTHING TO DOTHERES STILL NOTHING TO DO
>>56966745I got my 45th win thanks to a guy who tried to stall with Snorlax and it just let me draw my Nidoking at the bottom of my deck
What the fuck is this nonsense?
>>56967032Damage roulette
Just a reminder that if you're F2P and want a full collection you'll need to open Pika/Mewtwo/Zard packs exclusively for 4 years on average.
>>56966991You are definitely correct about the 4 points things, however:Nigga we're on /vp/, did you expect a competent statistician? All the smart pedophiles are on 8ch, all the smart furries are on e621's forum.My model was based on my experience, what I consider to be "average", and was literally developed in thread over like 15 minutes. Hopefully it's enough for someone better to come along and refine it.
>>56967032kino
>>56967043>smart furriesOxymoron
>>56967032signature 25% win rate deck brah
>>56966991What kind of shitter queue are you in and how do I fight these animals, it sounds like easy points
>>56967041And if your P2P how much does a full collection cost, on average?
>>56967052Name a single database engineer who doesn't own a fursuit.
>>56967061$3600Source: You don't wanna know :,^ )
>>56967036>>56967044>>56967054I barely understand what it does. It couldn't exist in tabletop, that's for sure
>>56967032It means it can hit any Pokemon on your opponents side. It will hit for 200 damage total. It'll be spread randomly. It can be 50 damage on the active + 3 benched. It can be 150 on the active and 1 benched. It can be 200 damage on 1 benched.
>>56967041they'll offer discounts on old sets eventually
>>56967061Apparently 3200$, but that's not my calculation.
F2PbrosDon't worry about the doomYou WILL get MewYou WILL get CelebiYou WILL get JirachiYou just might not get the fancy art, and that's okay!https://www.reddit.com/r/PTCGP/comments/1gxlouo/can_you_complete_the_basic_pokedex_for_a_new_set/
>>56967043I believe a bot exists out there programmed to slow play and never attack, and is slowly accumulating wins by stalling until the bored opponent concedes. Such a bot could potentially farm thousands of wins and the only point they would ever receive is from opponents knocking out their own Pokemon with recoil damage (such as from the Mankey promo) or friendly fire (the non-ex Zapdos)
>>56967075>cope
>>56967078>Win 5 in a row>Every game you just super hard rope the timer>The opponent just leaves instead because they're impatientIs it a viable strategy, Jim?
>>56966809I have a 73% winrate according to this. I do think I win most games but I'm not really sure if it's 73% of them.
>>56967059Just load into TCG player queue like me, I already got the 50 wins for the event on day one
>>56967090>no bro they totally won't try and milk sets long after they're irrelevant >
>>56967077Getting Mew takes around 7 months for F2P if you focus only on current packs. Or 475$.
>>56966225Yeah her commentary was absolutely awful. So much for le pro player.
>>56967099Can you even get a 2nd Mew to actually play in your decks?
>>56967077>you need to be optimizing your wonder picksInstantly means already much less achievable by most f2p going for collection, I bet half of their wonder has been towards alt arts already
>>56967030nice one arbokbro. im 8 wins away from my 45 ribbon. just killed a mewtwo player who tried to use x speed after i cornered him.
>>56967093In my experience people don't concede until the moment you're about to win. I attribute it to stupidity or spite.
>>56967098Gachas don't generally give discounts on old units that are still strong but unobtainable. They just make them time limited and have them occasionally return for a week or so, so that everyone who wants one needs to spend money.
>>56967110Nope, there's only one (flairing the card itself requires no dupes)
>>56967099Utterly retarded. As of today I'm 11 Pokémon away from Mew, completely F2P. I'm not even sweating it, trading is coming in January and I have enough dupes of three diamonds to get the ones I'm missing through trade and not even burn pack points. Nice doom and gloom trolling for the new players though, I kinda dig it
TPC will eventually add trading to this game. What is the best way I could monetize this to make out like a bandit?
>>56967116Sure but 'still strong' will not be applicable here. This is like any other gacha or TCG. Pikachu, Charizard, and Mewtwo will look like dogshit 2 years from now.
>>56967121Based collector fag shitting on seething gacha addict spergs
>>56967126>What is the best way I could monetize this to make out like a bandit?Be TPC.
>>56967093Five wins in a row is unbelievably easy with Pikachu ex, my advice is pull the Pikachu pack before the event if you don't have him yet, that's a safer bet than stall tactics
>>56966836I actually really liked Artifact
>>56967127Yeah, but I think Sabrina at least will stay relevant.
Why are there so many coinflips in this game?
>>56967078that is something that was going on in master duel ages ago. kinda funny shit because they were even in platinum rank when at the time platinum was the highest ranking
>>56967135From what I heard they're only making 20% of the profits for licensing out (which is still nothing to sneeze at, but DeNA is the one really making a killing here)
>>56967145Because that's the soul of the original TCG.
>>56967145Keeps things exciting for both players
>>56967121>trading is coming in JanuaryAnd the only thing we know about how it's going to work is that many cards won't be tradeable at first and it will "maybe" get expanded later.
>>56967093>>56967138This but also Mewtwo.
>>56967149Oh I remember! But at least in Duel Links and Master Duel you can report players for slow play or other unsporting behaviors
>>56966445Machamp is great, I don't even have ex and reg machamp wind me tons. I'm running hitmonchans and less for poke and pressure, and cause they only need 1 energy to deal damage. Also counters Pikachu
>>56967113>tried to use x speed after i cornered himBest feeling in the fucking world. Godspeed arbok bro
>>56967145Exact same reason there's tripping in Brawl.
>>56967154Even imagining a reality where we can't trade three diamond rares, only commons and uncommons, I have no doubt I'll obtain the cards I need by continuing to open packs and wonder picks, just by looking at how close I am after only three weeks
>>569669922 Mewtow6 Ralts1 Fossil2 Research2 Pokeball2 x Speed2 Potion2 Sabrina1 Red CardThis is what I have settled on as the best Mewtwo build.
>>56966670dammmmmn
>>56967145This game is VERY simple. The only thing that cannake this remotely nail biting are coinflips
>>56967156Also true
ursiiday my love
>>56966670How many wonder pick points did that cost? 4?
>opponent uses misty
>>56967071that's wrong lmao
>>56967032>>56967054How much of it is bad just because of the awkward energy cost?If it was just water and could be misty'd turn 2 would it be legit?
>>56967145The Pokemon video games you play give you coin flips and dice rolls just the same. You're taking chances every time you use moves with less than 100% accuracy or apply status effects such as sleep. You're just not actively flipping the coin in those games so it registers in your mind differently
>>56966992Wait 1 or 2 days to see what wins the egirl's tournament. The prevailing lists seem to be running 1 copy of regular Mewtwo.
>>56967157I'm fairly positive that shit was completely cosmetic, they even removed the option to report bots from md while ftk bots were everywhere in ranked
>>56967188I think any casino would kick someone out if enough customers complain, Konami knows this well
>>56967181It can be really awkward yeah, you sometimes end up with 5 water energies and can't do shit. On top of being a stage 2 which is already inconsistent enough>Water DragoniteWould be alright, still a stage 2 though
>>56967166>by continuing to open packs >just by looking at how close I am after only three weeksThat's how it normally works, yes. You get new cards when you don't have any cards and the more cards you have the less new cards you get with each pack.
Finally, an Arcanine ex...
>>56967181Dragonite deck problem is just being two stage evo. If you can pull the damn evo line it works ok
>>56967202ive yet still to see one...
>>56967199You just blew my mind dude
>>56967206The other is occasionally being energy bricked. I defeated a guy yesterday because his deck generated 6 water energy in a row
>>56967209I'd rather that then my 72 wasted hourglasses
>Zapdos EX is one retreat costWhy is this game like this?
while we're talking about dragonite bricking
>>56967070Roll a 4 sided dice 4 times. Deal 50 damage to your opponents Pokemon that corresponds to the number rolled (1 left bench, 2 middle bench, 3 right bench, 4 active)
>>56967233he flies and he quicc bro
>>56967233Starmie ex is fucking 0Honorary Vietnamese
>>56967236Venusaur is just utter trash sadly
>>56967227>72 wasted hourglasses
anyone up for games? code: vp
>>56967233Zapdos is the best card in the game1 to attack1 to retreat3 to potentially nuke 200good HPcarries Pika pretty hard, without it the deck falls off a lot
>>56967239>needs different sided die for 3 mons and a coin for 2its just easier as a digital mechanic, i wonder if pokemon are going to generate cards anytime soon
>>56967252starmie is even faster, that's why
>>56967242This game is just so fucking lame. There is no way to interfere with what your opponent is doing in any way shape or form. Every EX card just retreats for free.
>>56967093If it's anything like the previous event you will be MMR matched so when you're on 3 - 4 consecutive wins your opponent will be far less likely to concede as they will be wanting to keep their streak too.
We need trap cards
>>56966740I just tested it, they both give 15 exp per win. Same as the event.
>>56967263It's just the only way to do that specific effect randomly but it's like saying Pokeball can't exist in tabletop because it randomly picks from the deck.
>>56967265uhh, duhh, you control minions by controlling their life points, its called life point control you should try it
>>56967181Dragonite is dragon type so even though it wants water energy Misty cannot target it.
>>56967263Like tokens?>>56967275Correct
>>56967256I've seen two myself. I pulled Arcanine on the first one without dipping into glass. I didn't pick from the second one.
>>56967265Wrong.
>alt finally WP'd 2 KabutopsNice.
>>56967284>generate a trainer card that draws 1 as an attackor something, would be interesting to see if pokemon goes full hearthstone somehow
even the expert solos AI is embarrassingly bad, just occasionally makes big brain plays, it's weird.
i guess nobody wants to play
I activated the free trial and immediately cancelled the subscription. Worth.
Got my second Starmie EX and finished water deck. I still need a second Charizard EX, but at this point I have all the three-stars and under from the Charizard pack. So I'm going to focus on the Pikachu packs just to get new shit and hopefully an immersive Pikachu to complete the set. Sad that I don't have any full arts besides the Mewtwo, Charizard and Giovanni out of like 780 cards worth of packs.
>>56967265
>>56967287I saw how scary last night Gengar ex can be when set up. You can't force him to switch out with Sabrina, you can't hit him harder with Giovanni or Blaine, grass types can't heal with Erika, he can be a win condition just by being put in the active spot
>>56967300They make it easy to cancel?
>>56967265Pidgeot Arbok (that's all, folks!)Victreebel Sabrina GengarAerodactyl OmastarThere's not a lot of "interaction", but it does exist.
>>56967265X Speed 1 per deck limit would massively improve the game, it’s a cool card and I’m not going to pretend I haven’t benefited from it but it’s way too much of a get out of jail free card atm
>>56967312extremely, one click and done.you have to log into google account though if you want to remove the payment method from your account after.
The only players who don't get a thanks.
>>56967316I really think the trainer cards in general should be limited, just from the standpoint that everyone having two of so many of them in their decks is kind of boring considering the deck size is already limited to 20
>>56967320how is this worse than Moltres though
>>56967265Its a very early metaMore cards will introduce over time that change the way we can interact and punish things
>>56967320I just close the game at this point so they have to sit there for 3 minutes
>>56967299Are you up?
what round is top cut for the egirl tourney, there's a fucking fossilpilled centiskorch player running zubat for mew2 doing well rn
>>56967333Misty can power up a mon like Articuno ex or Lapras ex to hit hard as hell on turn one and even win the game turn one if the opponent only has one basic Pokemon in play. Misty can generate energy for a Pokemon to then attack that same turn, Moltres' Inferno Dance ends the turn. While Moltres is capped at generating three energy per turn, Misty could do something absurd like put five energies on a Blastoise ex making him immediately fully powered
>>56967356why does he have only 1 zubat
>>569673612 Poke Ball and he only ever needs 1 Golbat
>>56967356I've been trying to shill Golbat here. Nice to see a Golbat splash list made it to round 2. Centiskorch is basically just Charizard but it doesn't give the opponent 2 points.
>>56967356Is centipede better than Arcanine?
>>56967361To reduce the chance of it being pulled by a Pokeball I'm sure. Why two Golbat then? To increase the odds of getting a Golbat into your hand, since it can't be grabbed by a Pokeball.
if misty isnt fair, marowak and executor ex isnt fair
>>56967320Everyone besides rage quitters and time wasters get a thanks.If his deck does the thing, good for him.
>>56967356Wow unironically pretty big brain.
>>56967385We're not stating that coin flips are inherently unfair. More that the potential upsides of Misty's coin flips are far greater than any other coin flip cards in the game right now
>>56967356i think two more rounds and if he wins them he makes it to day 2 and top 32? i see most pple drop at x-2
>>56967356you can only have 1 loss, he needs to go 9-1Moltres is so damn busted
>>56967323Yeah I can get behind that too. I played a singleton tour in the middle of the week and although it was super rng heavy it was pretty fun to see decks and games not play out in the standard, assembly-line way. Again it’s more rng in the games themselves but also forces people to be more considerate and original with deck building. I just go after x speed in particular since it would give players more of an opportunity to play out of bricks if there were 1 per deck. Less early kill snipes from someone who nuts, more potential turn delays if you play a Sabrina to stall, etc. it enhances tilt in your favor and gets you out when your situation becomes a bit uncomfortable but a healthy game would give the opponent more room to play himself back in.
Do moltres fire decks have more problems with pikachu or mewtwo
>>56967372Everything is better than Arcanine
>>56967426I'd say Mewtwo, especially centescorch and arcanine builds.
>>56967395To be honest I think even an ex-professional TCG players couldn't come up with this strategy
>>56967323limiting trainer cards would just make every deck a pile of cards because pokemon are useless by themselves
Then you get poor assholes like this who whiff both there mistys.>>56967426Pikachu but in my experience metwos always seem to eat their balls
>>56967439Nice job finding my post correctly for once sir.I think some anon here was playing around with zubat and other colorless attackers, but his deck was a confused mess.
>>56967426From my experience with and against Moltres ex, the type disadvantage can make the Pikachu matchup suck. Yesterday I went second, attacked Moltres for 20+20 with Voltorb, then on turn four I evolved to Electrode and did a 70+20+10 Giovanni boosted attack utterly wiping out Moltres ex, and my opponent conceded
>>56967443>Pokemon are useless by themselveshuh?
800 pack hourglasses
>>56967426Arcanine has more problems with M2, Zard has more problems with Pika. I think there’s real value in just doing a hybrid and playing to whatever your matchup/draws are, a couple people were shilling it
>>56967474Chad levels of self control (or you oinked so you just don't need to burn hourglasses right now)
>>56967416funny you say that, it even supports some shit like thisthere are some cooks in this tourney, there's another chad running egg ex with alakazam 7-1 rn
>>56967490I remember when somebody posted the egg/zam list in this thread a few weeks ago
>>56967469majority of the pokemon just attack and dont do anything else.
>>56967482I’m an irl paypiggy so I feel no desire to do so digitally
Having both normal and EX Gengars in decks feels much better.
>>56967490what's the egg decklist
>>56967356and he's out of top cut, lost to a mew2spicy decklist tho, ill give it a spin on ladder later
>>56965903I am so fucking sick of Pikachu decks drawing into full bench at start of match. literally nothing you can do. Unless you're starmie ex and win misty coin flip turn 2 and went first
When is it worth getting the 2 week premium free trial? wait for the next event?
>>56967557marowak can kind of keep up
>>56967356I went 6 and 3. lost to 2 bs Pikachu decks and lost a mirror. Was kind of fun but wastes my whole day and I'm sick of bad players getting lucky and winning.
>>56967550cool idea since egg x is the fattest tank there is rn, notably no erika tho
>>56967341You close the game as in you rage quit or you alt-tab?Disconnections are as fast as consneeding for the opposing party.
3 out of 6! 3 out of 6! There is a light at the end of the tunnel!I beat grass with Dugtrio.I beat fire with Pinsir.I beat lightning with Frosmoth.I just need to beat water with fire, psychic with fighting, and fighting with lightning.
I really just want 2 full art Sabrina before the set rotates. I imagine the chance of that happening is extremely low though
>>56967571Venu ex is considerably fatter with higher HP and ability to self heal albeit at the cost of being stage 2 and requiring a greater energy commitment
>>56967568it happens brour not playing tourneys for a good return, its for the experience, there's a guy i saw 0-8 that hasn't dropped yet lmao, you're doing great bro
>>56967571This deck seems breddy neat. Can't say I can support the meowth, butnthe rest looks good. Sabrina is often enough a time walk against mewtwo that I'd likely play 2
I spent pack tokens on Misty full art.I don't even intend to play a water deck, Misty is just my favorite pokegirl.
>>56967593No room for 2 stage 2s
Is there anything worse than faggots who insist on playing every card in their hand when the outcome of the game is already certain?
>>56967580Water with fire was hardest for me, had no ex fire cards at the time. No Blaine either. Tried gambling with Moltres but lost every coin flip. Could get Charizard in play but only good for one attack then not enough energy. Ended up winning with Centiskorch.
>>56967598getting zapped by 90 damage, plus gio occasionally, after 2 turns gets tiring
>>56967610So you meant that Exeggutor is the fattest stage 1 tank. Got it
>>56967585Do you have one at least? I have two FA sabrinas but I'm noticing in my deck I keep cutting out the 2nd sabrina for something else
>>56967616I concede on those fucks. I give them an opportunity to attack and if they do anything extra that isn't needed to do lethal damage, they lose their chance and have to be happy with my concession
>>56967616I do it instinctively from maximizing XP gains in Hearthstone.
>>56967568you gotta be lucky and good to win these tourneys, it’s just how it is when top cut is so small
>>56967628i wouldn't classify venu as a tank, he's def meant to be a sweeper but he trades some dmg for bulk and self heala stage 2 ex as a tank turn 7 after you found all your pieces is not a good idea lmao
>>56967616Just consneed if you're obviously dead
>>56967077oh shit i really should just start doing wonderpicks of cards I dont have. i passed on a few that had like 4/5 or 3/5 ones I dont have
>>56967618I'm hoping to do it with a proper Blaine deck but if I don't pull all the pieces I'll try Centiskorch.Of the three I've done, grass with fighting was the worst by a mile.Venusaur EX would require something like 26 heads in a row with all the healing so I had to scoop whenever it became active.I was one coinflip away from wining off Kangaskhan + Exeggutor EX in like 5 different games.In the end I won off of Kangaskhan + Exeggcute + Kangaskhan after the bot turbo bricked.Kangaskhan's fighting weakness carried me through that fight and I am not looking forward to Dugtrio versus the psychic deck.
>>56967585I only have type specific FA supporters after spending 600 dollars. Don't feel too bad about it.
>>56967655He pairs very well with Exeggutor ex as a strong early game threat that's not energy hungry so Venu can power up. With self healing, potions, and Erika, he can heal for days
>>56967642>>56967661It's just as annoying when they're the ones about to lose. They just have to drag it out that little bit
>arcanine one of my fave pokemon>he's shititai
>>56967696You stupid?
>>56967682There's a lot of bad sports in this game. I admit to not giving thanks sometimes when I lose but we're not obligated to.. But I absolutely do not waste people's time in game and when I encounter someone who does slow play and I'm on the winning end I try to make it miserable for them
>>56967696More consistent than moltresIs fantastic with butterfree
>>56967490>>56967696Reminder we all live in bubbles of our own delusions
>>56967703>>56967710>>56967712but >>56967428
just checked out the tournament and there's a guy that's 8-1 with a solo greninja + kangaskhan deck. pretty nuts honestly
>>56967717Where's the tournament lists?
>>56965903I hope we get a normal-type Misty. It would be useful for mons that don't need specific energy types for their attacks, like Golem.
>>56967716Oh, well that settles it
>>56967666I had an easy time using Machamp ex and throwing Hitmonchan out in front. Helps they're not weak to grass.
>>56967696>>56967716Arcanine EX is stage 1 instead of stage 2 Zard, so the deck is faster. 120 damage kills Pikachu EX and normal Mewtwo and bunch other basic walls.
>>56967722https://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/67392f4fc4180e08eacf7371/standings
>>56967696It has a niche in countering Pikachu EX
>>56967717you forgot with exactly one mewtwo ex lmaoim assuming its both a tank and a threat they have to worry about if he's running dual energy
>>56967727just wait for lugia vstar
>>56967751If it takes the pokemon 2.5 miles to reach nearly 25 mph maybe we should call it slow wing
lol the Char ex Arcanine ex deck is now 10-0 in this tournament. But Arcanine ex sucks. Never change, /vp/
>>56967777
>>56967777Anything can happen in a coin toss
where to watch tournamentsI must see how the pros play
>>56967788In actuality, coin tosses provide only three possibilities. Heads, tails, or an incomplete toss to then be flipped again

>the arcanine and charizard decks in top cut are fossilpilled but not the mew2 decksmew2 bros...
>>56967811the only upside of mew2 deck is there are no coinflips. if you don't get your evolution early you're fucked. im honestly starting to hate this deck and prefer playing my coin flip misty deck
>>56967811I had 2 unlucky losses to Misty coinflips and Zapdos nailing 3 Heads in a single turn, but I got 8-2 with fossil-pilled Mewtwo.I also bricked hard those matches.I'll probably get bubbled out, but between this and last week I don't think I have lost a SINGLE Mewtwo mirror match yet, and if I have if was only 1.
that hayato nigga has red card, i thought red card sucked
>>56967817Yeah Mewtwo is a little too linear to play without taking breaks from it. It reminds me of playing Dark Magician in Duel Links in that respect.
>>56967826It sucks except when it's absolutely nuts
>>56967803And?
>>56967834>And?And?
>>56967568The very best decks have just slightly over 50% win rate. There's a lot of luck in this game when playing people of equal skill
>>56967616Any time i’ve been bmed like that it’s been at the end of a hard lucking. Congrats bro you beat a solo Ralts T2 on a non ranked ladder, make sure to play your red card to flex
>>56967826Open decklist so it's rather beneficial to run it just to instill fear.I THINK it helped me once using it as a "they evolved their basic time to hope they have a stage 2 in hand and I carded it away"I do know that getting redcarded helped me at least twice, at least one being a memeful turn 1 red card.I had another turn 1 red card and it wasn't helpful or unhelpful really.I feel like I should maybe use it more often since I will sit on it when they have a number of cards in their hand since I know they are bricked right now, but around mid to late game I should probably red card to remove potential Sabrinas and Giovannis more.I did end up helping one person out red carding them into an Oak into a double Gardevoir, so that was fun.
>>56967233he is le fast
hahaha fuck, time to uninstall and never look back
>nine (9) fucking lightning energy in a rowDragonitebros... how do you fucking cope...
>>56967870>get mad 1/5 chance fails
The post battle thanks system should be in every other card game, it's great since it actually incentives running interesting and fun nonmeta decks to maximize the chances of getting thanked, personally I never thank anyone playing Pikachu or mewtwoAlthough desu the reward of a shop token and only 5 a day is a bit shit
>>56967874By switching to M2
>>56967790limitless->streams tab >>56967826it’s probably the closest thing you can have to steering your own destiny in this game. a lot of opponent win cons come down to having a single card or a combination of cards, yeah they might get it back but if you can suss out what they’re doing and card then you flip the game on its head
>>56967877In theory, sure but in reality there are two types of players. Those who automatically thank every battle and faggots with smelly fingers
>>56967883I don't know how I feel about it's inclusion in the game.I guess I just hate having to run it, because it hardly ever feels good to use, even when it supposedly works you aren't really sure if it really helped or not just a 'feeling'.It really doesn't feel good to play, but it does discourage greedy digging, theoretically, and it's the only form of hand disruption we have.Though maybe hand disruption isn't something we should have.God I wish this game wasn't 3 prize 20 deck and actually had more variety and shit.
>>56967870I've failed 3 so far
if you've got last log-in on private im not accepting your friend request
>>56967870I've pulled on it twice and gotten Arcanine EX both times, crazy luck. But I'm still missing the regular Moltres and Charizard for my dex and I don't know if it'll be worth trying again when it pops up
>>56967822good shit anyways bro thats top 64 i think so great showingif you got this far, you can def make top cut eventually, rnjesus just wasn't on your side today
>>56967915Well shit, speaking ofSince I can't pick correctly myself, I leave my fate in your hands /tcgp/
>>56967777>this tournamentThis thread is about the real game not your simpathon fanfic.
>>56967904Yeah I feel that, I had 2 tournament games where I carded because my opponents pretty clearly had and needed x and y cards and then they ended up with them the following turns anyways. I’ve also had plenty of random queue games where I know I’ve won with it but there’s no 100% confirmation. It’s good for the fear factor alone though yeah, you can cop the fattest hand and go wild with bluffs if you know they haven’t got Red Card
>>56967923The first time I purged my friend list I deleted everyone set to private because I thought that was an extra step but then I realized it was just my fellow schizo bros that don't want to be tracked. Now I delete everyone who isn't private. Fuck tracking.
>>56967933Bottom right.
>this list made top cut 9-1i can't wait for the promo event, ima have like 4 greninja decks queued up to fuck around with
what does arcanine add to the charizard deck
>>56967947That's what I picked every other time.Fourth time's the charm?
>>56967950this deck looks like shit tho
>>56967947I give up
>>56967955think about it yourself. it should be clear
>>569679681/5 chance don't give up until you've at least tried 5 times
>>56967963Yet it's winning.
>>56967978I've wasted too many wonder hourglasses, just gonna let it recover naturally from now on
>>56967963its big brain as fuck, stage 2 decks get cucked by not drawing their threats, and you can search this off a poke ball to start pumpingat 150 health it also serves as a better snorlax if need be, that can reliably poke a mon down for the ninja to pick off laterplus i get to combine two cool pokes together, say less
>>56967923My friend is like this. He always tells me when I have a console not locked down and recites my recently played games like it's some kind of gotcha. It's like no shit, I want my friends to see what I'm playing so they might want to get a game going. It's funny because I'm normally the schizo conspiracy douche but in this situation he's just a fucking pussy
>>56967950why the mewtwo?
>>56967977But Centiskorch is better
>>56967950Greninja is probably the best non-ex in the game, it deals the most guaranteed damage for 2 energy out of any non-ex. The only downside is that it's a stage 2 and it doesn't work alone. Japs love using it and the only thing that saves me is when they don't draw into it.
>>56967928Results in seem and I got 67thKinda pissed I got a no-show opponent so that tanked my placing pretty bad, though maybe I would have lost that one, was a Raichu-Pika.Also invalidates my placing a bit too given the free win, shitty little asterisk on it.I'm not fossilanon but I want to push fossil Mewtwo into a top cut at the very least, then I will feel accomplished enough to run something cooler and more rogue.Thank you though, I'll keep trying and tweaking, but I have been analyzing my matches and I don't think I would have preferred a normal Mewtwo or Jynx or Kanga or anything in them, since a lot of times I really banked on the free retreat, and also just general protection after having Mewtwo and Gard set up, slap down a fossil and you are literally impossible to slow down, at the cost of a point.
>>56967977Not him but I don't get it either. It's a stage 2, 3 energy retard that hurts it's self what's the gimmick?
>>56967992They're only wasted if you don't win. Have you never heard of the sunk-cost fallacy? If you give up you spent them for nothing
>just whaled for this, specifically this 2* Arcanine >mfw it doesn't qualify for the event exclusive flair>I didn't even pull any regular Arcanine EX from this those packsAm I to understand that DeNA just fucked my ass, and couldn't even give me a reach around?
How do you feel about Red Card?Does it ever fuck you over so hard you lose? I feel like there's a good chance you just give me free draw when you use it.
>>56968040It has definitely fucked me over but there are times I pray for them to use it. I use it as either a turn 1 yolo or if they just popped a couple prof oaks/pokeballs
>>56968040It rarely ever fucks me over so I just lose. Most of the time it makes no difference, I just lose 1 card but they spent a card so it's still even
>>56968016>centiskorch brobased and top 58-pilled
>>56968038whats so special about the flair
Is Ursii a virgin
wish i could make an alt account on iphone
>>56968071no girl over the age of 14 is
>>56968064I just thought it looked cool, and it's only available for the duration of the event. It's not very cool now that I know it doesn't go on the highest rarity version of the card that's available. And to think I thought I was lucky.
Ahahahaha dinko just whiffed both his mistys and quit
>>56968071She fucks black guys. She mentioned it in a slip-up one stream.
>>56968091that's my fetish thougheverbeit
>>56968091hot, imagine her petite pale body contrasting with thick tough dark skin
>>56968071Yeah I killed every man that tried to touch her and commit foul unChristian deeds, I protected her virginity for you anon
>>56967950>>56968014Is this fucker running psychic and water?Mewtwo's weak attack + shuriken KOs any small basic, and you only need 1 psychic, which you can still attack with frogadier line tooAnd while you are getting color fucked you can stay in with Kanga and just punch awayFroakie seems hard to build up potentially though being 2/5, though I suppose that's the same as a lot of decks out there.Compare that to Articuno who only has 40, but can also go up to 80 much easier than Mewtwo can go to 150 which would be potentially clutch in some games as it's a really big heavy hitter the deck lasts, and it only needs to pop-off once.I can't wait for the event to grab my promos so I can start playing around with ninja frog too.
>>56968091are you seriousi canti cant fucking breatheim having a syroke rihg nowshe was suppose yo be a maidenhow did yhsi
t b h I find ursiiday more attractive than most of the twitch ethots, how come she doesnt have more viewers
>>56968025>Japs love using it and the only thing that saves me is when they don't draw into it.Don’t think I’ve ever seen a Gren shitdeck in my life desu, it’s usually 1-2-3 from the Froakie
Ursiiday commentates like a teacher trying to tard wrangle a bunch of 3rd graders with ADHD
>>56968120because she sucks dick at commenting and every sentence she stutters and goes uhhhim sure she's nice and her tits should get stared at more, but i put the stream on mute everytime i come in to see the games
>>56968040Very rarely fucks me over. but there are times where it has or I hope they don't play red card for that specific turn. Lot of the time it helps me or does nothing.
>>56968148>>56968137you guys realize she's not a commentator and is more of a tournament player right?
>>56968148all twitch female streamers are like that
I've built Mewtwo/Gardevoir, Starmie/Articuno, and now Pikajew decks.What do I do now?
>>56968164nothing because you're a brainless metafag if that's all you thought to build
>>56968173Weird assumption. Jealousy?
WHY DO I KEEP LOSING TO NON EX SHITTERS WITH MY PERFECT MEWTWO DECKWHY CAN I NEVER GET OUT MY FUCKING GARDEVOIR
>>56968164Bats. Build a bat deck
>losing to non-meta decks with your mewtwotrans deckkys
>>56968164Build Charizard ex or Venusaur ex
>>56968173I mean, there's not exactly much variety yet.I'd love to mess with a non-pika ex and zapdos ex electric deck myself, but the options kinda suck.
>>56968031Can you think of any Pokemon in the meta right now that have exactly 120 hp?
>>56968203take the weezing/arbok pill.
>>56968203electric is kinda fucked rn, the stage 2 kinda sucks and idk how to build a raichu deck that isn't just scuffed pika, but i do wanna try cooking a dual color fire/electric evee deck
>>56968213but centiskortch does 130
>>56968213I can think of one guy that deals 200 as long as I don't piss all of my energy into a suicidal tard mutt
>1 ralts, no kirlia, no gardevoirat what point do I just craft themI'm 1 mew2 EX away from competing the EX in this pack
>>56968214>specify wanting to do electric >recommends dark>>56968217>Raichu is energy intensive>Magneton sucks outside of enabling Raichu faster>Eelektross costs too muchIt sucks man.
>>56968227And what do you do when Charmeleon is at the bottom of your deck
i honestly dont know when to use sabrina. half the time i use her its an advantage to my opponent.
>>56968176>says has built meta decks>gets called a metafag>erm actually no u madnice bait retard, guess metafags still aren't bringing much to the table
>>56968220For one more energy, a higher retreat cost, and 20 less hp, yeah. But yes he does only give one prize when defeated but it's not hard to imagine situations where Arcanine would be preferable as well
>>56968232because the options outside of faggy ex pikachu are as you said limited. so why not branch out and not be a fag for once?
>>56968246>kills pikashit, zapdos, starmie>kills sharticuno with giovanni
it be like that sometimes
>>56968233Never get to him because I keep drawing worthless arcanines. Keep trying furfag>>56968241>poorfag/lucklet thinks meta is an insultlmao
>>56968238i use her either to stall for time and hope to force them to have to use energy to retreat back, or save it for endgame scenarios where I can one shot a damaged pokemon
>>56968164weezing/arbok weezing/nidoking arbok/nidoking
>>56968260I play a vanilla Char ex deck you simpleton, I only got my first Arcanine ex pack today. I just find it bizarre when a deck gets good tournament results and anon's first instincts are "durr, that's stupid, why did he put that card in" instead of trying to understand why it worked
mew2 is the most boring deck to play. i rather be flipping coins over raging about my evolutions being in the bottom of my deck
>>56968031>>56968213>>56968220>>56968246you guys are kind of dumb. if you ask post your cards sorted by highest rarities I'll explain it so even a little kid could understand it
>>56965903when's the mini set comes out and how long until we get next expansion?
does giovanni work with dragonite?
weezing bros, we barely missed out on top cut in the egirl tourneytwo that were 8-2 and barely missed top 32, both ran arbok/weezing only is muk really that bad, i feel a lot of games I need him to kill the big boys
>>56968294reread giovanni
>>56968295I used muk and went 6-3. had 5 straight wins in a row but got unlucky at the end. he's really hard to get online and in a lot of situations he's detrimental because he takes far too much energy and luck to set uphttps://files.catbox.moe/h5oyyx.mp4
>>56968271>smarmy rhetorical question anon admits to not having a clueWell color me shocked
Someone make a thread now or i will make a /ppg/ thread
New!:>>56968333
>>56968303typing yes or no would have been faster you loser. thats why you get no bitches.

>>56968232Welcome to the pocket general, watch out for brapfags, you can spot them by their stench.
>>56968253Electric is my favorite type, so I'll be as faggy as I want to if it means using my favorite.
>>56968164wanna join me trying to innovate the exeggutor meta? it’s unstoppable unless it bricks
>>56968279play the basic Mewtwo and use him as a wall to stall until you have all the shit you need anyone not playing two of him is a retard
