>>
>easy win if I get my Chameleon to KO someone
>both are the last two in the deck
This shit is why Charizard decks suck shit. 3 stage EVOs are just so garbage when you have Mewtwo and Articuno to one or two turn KO.
>>
>>56985502
bro your moltres?
>>
>>56985502
Apples to oranges. Mewtwo can buttfuck you fast but if you deal with it early on it can't do shit in the late game. Charizard is the opposite where it just has to survive to the late game setup and then its practically a guaranteed win. I mean what does a Mewtwo deck do if its two Mewtwo are the last two cards in the deck? At least you can have a Charmander/Charmeleon fed energy from Moltres while you wait, Mewtwo can't do that.
>>
>winning
>opponent melties and I have to wait 2 minutes before he comes back

>>
>>56985537
You're more likely to not get your kirlia/gardevoir than not get your mewtwo.
>>
>>56985537
The chances of a M2 deck having both at the end of the deck is minimal though. Imagine you start with a Ralts and they are towards the middle. You Pokéball and get another Ralts, shuffling them all the way to the end. Another Ball guarantees one and digs the other from the bottom.
That's what that anon is complaining about; decks with searchable EXs. The moment we get some form of searching for evos (Caterpie barely counts and only for one color), the meta will be incredibly shaken up.
>>
>>56985607
>Another Ball guarantees one
Or hits your Kangaskhan because your deck is whack.
>>
I'm really going to make it through this fire event with 12 Magmar and not a single Charmeleon to go with my 2 Charizard EXs.
>>
The greater issue is that even though Mewtwo is reliant on Garde, it isn't completely over if he doesn't draw it since it can still attack on curve and nuke SOMETHING that may allow you to gain tempo, or two shot something with the weak attack.

H's reliant on a stage 2 but it still functions poorly without the stage 2.
Meanwhile other stage 2 decks like Charizard can literally do jack and shit if you don't draw Charizard, even going for Charmelon attacks leaves you more vulnerable at a much lower HP line, and attaching energy to attack with moltres is slow.

You have less options in a brick situation than Mewtwo does, despite both being reliant on a Stage2 mon.
This is the same for all stage 2 decks where the stage 2 itself is the actual wincon, Mewtwo however is the wincon it just needs support from what happens to be a stage 2 mon.

>>56985696
Speaking of illusion they could capitalize on the simulator only part of this game and make a really unique Zoroak card, though would need heavy consideration to not make it busted.

tldr
You play Zoroark and it appears as a completely different card to your opponent, until it gets damaged or something.

>>
>>56985728
it appearing as a random other card in your deck until damaged would be fine I think. Although considering how small the deck size is and how few pokemon most meta decks run, you would probably run into the problem of getting found out immediately because you already played two of the same pokemon before you played zoroark.
>>
>>56985728
I hope they don't shy away stuff like that, like Deoxys can have a ingame form change or something

Would be really cool and unique
>>
>>56985670
It just seems silly to talk about Charizard's weaknesses when it shits on 90% of the game and all you can compare it to is Mewtwo which is even more stupid and Misty which is LOL
>>
>>56985742
how would that even work? would it "evolve" to the other forms from normal form? Would the form you switch to be based on RNG or would it be selectable? Would form change be an ability, or would it be a high cost attack? I feel like it's simplest, and most likely they would do seperate cards if they decided to do more than just base deoxys.
>>
Miniset will:

>Change up the meta or adds another deck type to the top 3 decks so far
>Does nothing, and we're essentially stuck with the same 3 top decks for 3 months until the next main set
>>
>>56985670
>attaching energy to moltres is slow
unless your luck is really shit, you should be attaching energy to moltres every turn with your charmander getting 1.5 energy every turn and having a loaded up chicked by turn 3. even if you don't opt to load up your chicken early, moltres can tank a lot with 140 hp, and between cycling out your birds to eat hits, and switching in your extra charmander/fossils, you can eat up potentially 4-5 turns of just waiting for Charizard to show up before it really becomes a problem.

it's possible they misstyped but if I were optimistic, I would think that means we're getting the mini set in early-mid december and the next booster around christmas. They put a lot of effort into the pack opening, it would make sense to have someway to capitalize on that around christmas to get people to open more packs.

As expected, the original Japanese has no mention of plurality, as it's just not a thing really in Japanese.
"New pack as well by end of year planning"
This is just like with Mario Maker 2 having "Extra Game Modes" and then only having 1 until the end of its DLC support.

>>56986091
Because it's meant for children and randomness is an easy way to add excitement when the cool thing happens and also it gives children the chance to get lucky and have their Marowak EX one shot all the opponent's stuff giving them a win.
>>
>>56986109
hmmm makes sense
>>
>>56985502
Funnily enough a Charizard deck will always beat a Mewtwo deck assuming you both evolve on curve and just mediocre luck needed from Moltres(at least 1 heads every turn) it's mathematically impossible for mewtwo to win.
>>
>>56986122
Funnily enough Moltres is weak to lightning and Mewtwo isn't.
>>
Does the game always rig at least one starter in the hand?
>>
>>56986133
Yes.
>>
>>56986133
That's part of why you don't want to run too many basics. The fewer you run the more likely it is that your best basic starts in your hand. And that goes for Pokeballs too.
>>
I've been having a lot more fun with Blaine than I did with Mewtwo. This was a good event.

>>56986122
In a vacuum maybe. In reality if you have sabrina and jinx like your supposed to, it's very easy to beat charizard decks.

it's absurd they put one shitty event specific flair on it so you would have to whale to get the 3 arcanines you need for some worthless sparkle effects. It's not even as good as the default fire effect flare, not that you'll ever pull enough to get it.

My concern is however they decide to implement the other forms, I'm guessing one form, probably attack, will just always be the correct one to switch/evolve to. there's a lot of versions from the tcg but several of the defense and speed form cards seemed pretty underwhelming compared to the attack and normal forms

Wailord-sama I kneel. No homo, but I'd be down to do something strange for a piece of change, if you catch my drift. Take me with you on your journey? No but seriously, that's a lot of packs opened. What card were you pulling for? What was your chase?
>>
>>56986257
Lickitung with golurk and hypno with a kanga if you got the room. Lickitung can one shot anything with enough head flips but can also do nothing, same with kanga but caps out at 60 damage but makes a decent wall. Golurk is a stronger but more energy cost version of kanga so that's where hypno comes in as that is also a coin flip to put you opponent to sleep to let you build up your energy on your high energy attacking mons.

>>56986522
It actually wasn't as whaley as it sounds, you get a ton of discounted gold on a fresh account, then the packs you buy give you xp and you get gold and hourglasses from leveling up. It was still more than I'd say you should throw at a game like this, but I'm a slut for card games and my chase is more about deck building options than it is about any particular card.
Having the immersive Mew does bring back the feelings I had way back when I was the only kid in school with the Ancient Mew card, though. That's a nice feel.

Thought Kangaskhan was going to be the meatshield solution for my decks but man that 3 retreat cost is real heavy. 30-60 damage is peanuts against other meatshields or EX Pokemon and the opponent can just set up their own thing

don't worry mega satan they can still make decent walls so can be a budget substitute for gardevoir to buy you time to put energy on your other mons on the bench and can act as a half decent backup attacker should your main attacker get taken out or you're just not drawing them.
>>
>>56986653
I've had success with it as a meatshield for Dragonite. Unlike other normal type walls, like Snorlax and Chansey, it only needs one energy to start doing damage. Sure it's only 30-60, but at least it's something the opponent will have to deal with.
That all being said, you're still probably better off using Weezing if you need a meat shield.

I hope they'll add Maushold soon. Maybe with abilities similar to MTG's Relentless Rats. Like "A deck can have any number of cards named Tandemaus or Maushold (with still 20 max)." And as a move Population Bomb that costs 3 or 4 uncolored and deals 10 damage + 10 for each Tandemaus or Maushold in your deck, hand and bench.

In terms of Mew progress:

I’m missing exegguter ex, and a second copy of a few relevant cards from Zard packs (moltres ex, alakazam, kanga, etc.). Blaine deck is done, BUT I would love to have a second full art of Blaine to go with my first copy and 2x full art rapidash. I won’t get hurt again on Pika packs; I have everything every remotely relevant aside from (maybe) jolteon. I’m missing just about everything from M2 packs.

What do? Seems like an obvious choice to move to M2 packs, I guess.

>>56987574
ANY fire deck with Moltres EX and a payload is meta. Arcanine is just accessible, but is just worse than Charizard

>>56987580
The best version of charizard deck also runs arcanine ex, since it directly counters pikachu

>Why did they do a whole event for an evolution line that's just plain bad?
The purpose of the event was to get you to use up your wonder hourglasses attempting to get those rarer cards. The rare wonder pull came up more often than the 1.5 day natural recharge rate of the wonder energy.

The actual cards they were offering didn't matter. (and I still only ended up getting on Charizard, two Blaines and one Moltres)
>>
>>56987634
hes not that good because even if you win the coinflip your opponent also gets to coinflip whether or not his pokemon is still asleep at the end of YOUR turn which brings it down to like a 25% chance.
>>
>>56986133
That's why you don't run memes that are dead turn 1/2 like Jynx
>>
>>56987677
yeah but the original question was the guy wanted a pure coin flip deck and was asking what was the most chance based deck you could make.
>>
>>56987666
Yeah, but it's not like you have to be running psychic to even run him.
>>56987677
That's kind of the point though.

Khang is a crutch imo, the rng damage output is flawed and anything with 3 retreat cost can be a sitting duck. I personally think high retreat cost tanks will age very badly in this game. I want to love grass decks but don’t like how the designated tank Exeggutor has 3 retreat cost.

>>56987701
herd bedrill isn't a bad card to pair with it since it only needs one energy to do anything so you can just keep putting all your extra energy on exeggutor to pull it back when you run out of Erika heals or want guaranteed damage and don't want to risk coin flips.
>>
>>56987701
Tanks should be balanced by high retreat costs. Having something just tank shit then retreat for no cost, denying any points is just boring.
I'd take a fast meta anyday over stall town.
>>
>>56987716
That's what makes Weezing so good
Koga gives it a free switch + revive
>>
>>56987715
Its more so that sometimes you can’t pull out exeggutor whenever you need too. Ive had fire deck games where i heal and pivot between 2 moltres to buy time for Zard or Arcanine to power up. Grass can’t do that, its important to pivot so you don’t lose points.
>>
>>56987716
You’re right but we already have low retreat cost tanks so it is what it is.
>>
>>56987725
Yes. Having a tanky mon with free retreat is that good. That's why Koga is a thing since Weezing has 3 retreat otherwise.
>>
>>56987726
to be fair I think most grass types have high retreat cost unless they're bugs since I think grasses gimmick is that they're tanks seeing how they have the best healing out of any other type (at least currently)
>>
