Nobody wished me luck and I matched with a Pikachu deck.
>running Exeggutor>everything's going going until match 4>only draw Caterpie and get immediately killed by a Ponta+Giovanni on turn 2
What decks are people using to get 5 wins?
>streak event.Now, this is cancer.PikaEX seems to be the most consistent option without hard counters. With M2 EX, you're fucked if you ran into a random Arbok deck.
>>57047857I used a Pikachu deck for it. Fuck getting 5 consecutive wins with other decks
>>57047857I just wrecked one with Marowak landing double headsI hope it was his 5th game in a row
>>57047861I got the emblem with Pika and I think M2 EX is still more consistent. Pika has a high probability to lose vs M2 if it goes first.
>>57047851got to 4 wins but at 5th match they gave me a same type but a variation that has much better match vs me and also gave me the worst starting hand possible. Lol didn't even get pokeballs or prof oaks
>>57047851Wow I actually got my 5 wins on the very first try. I can't tell you how much I was stressing out about it. But I know for a fact I got very lucky because I literally somehow went 2nd for all of my 5 games. I'm absolutely relieved it's behind me.
What a fucking cancer event.
>>57047864Mewtwo gets ruined by Weezing/Arbok regardless of who goes first most of the time.
>>57047866I pretty much fucked a guy over with a coin flip for my 5th win
>>57047868I don't play M2, but I see Pika/M2 way more than Arbok/Weezing.
>>57047864you have a high probability to lose with any deck if you go first. Even going 2nd against Arbok with M2, is just a horrible match up.
>>57047865I had a miserable game 5 as well. The bottom 4 cards of my deck with Blaine, Ninetales, Ninetales, and Rapidash. If my opponent had Sabrina I needed exactly Rapidash to win and if they didn't anything but Blaine would have worked. They had Sabrina and I drew Ninetales.
>>57047864Pikachu always has a chance, every other deck has another deck that will fuck them over 90% of the time no matter what. It's the reason why everyone has been calling them out on how fucking retarded of an idea this is for an event.
>>57047865Why is this any kind of surprise? You think those 4 players you beat before were all happy to lose? Chance is a huge factor in this game and by now everybody knows how to copy paste a deck. All things being equal, which they largely are, you have a 3.125% of calling 5 coin flips in a row
>>57047870The Pika vs M2 is close to 50/50 anyway.The biggest difference is that Pika doesn't have a consistent hard counter, if you want to go for streaks.Retards will say Marowak EX counters Pika, but Marowak EX will also beat M2 if you hit both heads.Since I'm with my streak, I'll play Arbok/Weezing to make people mald.
>>57047877Misty fucking asshole Cuno player got 7 heads in a row on me and ruined my first streak. If he didn't get 3 heads in a row on his second misty I would have had a chance.
That one time I needed a 5 consecutive wins, I had this song blasting. Maybe you can try that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygajdYnD8xQ
I'm going Mistycuno. Wish me luck.
Go with Marowak/PrimapeApe punches ratMarowak takes care of M2If you flip tails then it's skill issue
>>57047879Marowak EX can hit Pikachu twice, get 1 heads out of 4, and kill it.
>>57047887Maro needs to land 2 hits to knock out PIkachu ex
>>570478920+20 and 80+20
>>57047894The +20 modifer only applies after calculating the total, not on each hit
>>57047896Two attacks. 0 and one. 80 on the other. +20 on both.
I can feel my blood starting to boil
>>57047887If you can't double heads, you won't ohko PikaEX. That's not a hard counter.If PikaEX goes second, it'll even have the advantage. You can't compare it to true hard counters like Arbok vs M2.
>>57047900Oh you mean even a double tails attack that hits 0 on its own would still get the +20 bonusThat's silly
I think this is as good as it gets for me bros
>>57047900In that scenario, Marowak EX still loses if it goes first. Nice counter, bro.
>>57047884How about you end yourself
>>57047909Pikachu needs two hits to kill it. If Marowak comes online first that's good enough.
>>57047914Good enough for what? Losing to the deck you're supposed to counter, if you go first. Are we praying the Pika player bricks on top of coinflips now?
Used Melmetal deck the whole way
>>57047922Post decklist
>>57047922Post it (I don't have a single Melmetal so I can't even steal it)
>>57047922>Just don't queue against Mewtwo it's that easy
>>57047921I'm talking about getting online first (going second). If you go first you need two heads, but that's still better than losing.
NUPPY WE DID IT
Why is the event only lasting a single weekI hate these retards
any bots or something to play the game for me? dude honestly fuck this vs garbage
>>57047933Because the new miniset will be up by then
>>57047926Melmetal x2Meltan x2Pawnyard x2Bisharp x2Mawile x1Pokeball x1X Speed x2Potion x2Oak x2Giovanni x2Sabrina x2
>>57047933>when people keep cramming it in your face that this game is super casual which is why it isn't doing x, y, z but then it pulls this sweaty nonsense anyway
I'm running Weezing and Arbok and instantly conceding against anyone not running MewtwoMy sole goal here is to ruin at least 100 Mewtwofag streaks over the next week
>>57047877Because I'm doing something different than everyone else.
>get 2 solid wins>don't draw a single basic for 3 turns in a row against a elec deck and lose instantlythis challenge is impossible oh my days bruv
Imagine being an emblemless bitch lolFirst 5 matches btw
retarded coin flip game why cant i just fuckin auto play it
>>57047955Same but my middle is Charizard instead
>>57047857It's going to be common, the 2x Arbok / Weezing / 1x Wigg deck has been giving me results fucking them up. Has decent consistency too, since opening grip with Koff>Weez is one of the few good going first hands in the game
I only got the 4 streak of shame. I'm sorry I let you all down, I know how much each and every one of you believed in me.
>4 wins streak with a Nidoqueen deck >Immediately destroyed by some fucker Kanga that hit two heads on my Nidoran game 5
>opponent red cards me>deck crumbles to dust, recieve two X-Speeds and a stage 2 that will never have a chance to enter the field>red card opponent >angels cry out in chorus as they're presented with three hand picked cards specifically chosen to allow them to win as quickly as possible
i was told this is a casual normie game but now i have to tryhard with those 50-50 coin flips or else i lose my streak and i have only 1 week?
Checking the twitter, players got 5 streaks with the following>blaine>venusaur + exeggutor>pikachu (duh)>mewtwo>weezing + alakazamThere's definitely variety
>>57047964
>>57047964I believe in your determination and tenacity, your willingness to continue when better men would walk away FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!
>>57047969I was also told this, guess the ones that went around spouting this are certifiable retards considering this gross event exists
>>57047970Please tell me people are voicing their wish for this kind of event to never returnIf they make this a recurring thing I am going to stress out
>>57047969It's a week time so 168 hours. More than enough time
>I went first against Marowak EXI almost got countered
>>57047970Misty was very merciful and won me my first 5 matches, so add her to the list
>>57047978If you have to quantify it as hours it's not enough time
>>57047979GG
>>57047970whats the weezing alakazam list?
Honestly no reason to not run Pika, most consistent deck by far
Crabbed for three matches. Articuno'd for the last two.Fuck you, got mine.
>>57047977But that's what ranked will usually look like, and many players want something of that smoke
>play 3 games>first was Mewtwo EX mirror, except I only drew baby Mewtwo Gardevoir, and he drew Mewtwo EX, baby Mewtwo, and double Gardevoir>second I only drew Mewtwo EX with no Ralts against Koga>third I only drew Ralts in the mirror, and I conceded with a 10 hp Ralts as my only Pokemon in playI give up. Fuck this game.
>>57047990https://x.com/BoketeYong17277/status/1866020249273057487
>>57048000come on gajin... get more invested in to competitive coin flips.. spend some more time just git gut
>>57047999Tbf you only need a slightly above 50%wr to rank up in any ranked game, winning 5 in a row is kinda retarded
>>57047999This isn't ranked, this is Destiny Trials of Osiris type retarded shit.
>>57048019Not to mention the fact that most "ranked" games take at least a little bit of skill. This game will fuck you over on the beginning coinflip, then on the draw, then on the matchup, then on the litany of literal coinflips that Pokemon have.
>>57047999I don't want ranked either, the PVE is the best part for me, I don't mind PVP existing but I don't want them to incentivize it via ranked or these current kinds of missions because that will mean they will allot their reward breakdown toward it, and it's just not fun to play
what a fuckin retarded ass game who the fuck designed this? man i hate it that they make milions with rehashed pokemon garbage
>>57048021>>57048024>>57048019I don't know whatever online card games you play before, but in Shadowverse, you need to win consecutive wins before you can advance to the top rank
>>57047969you don't need to have a win streak to get anything that has any worth. just participate in a handful of battles
even the sweatiest ass competitive games I know never had one event where you need to win matches consecutively. Not to mention in only a week long event no less What the fuck were they thinking?
>enemy evolves on curvegg lost>turn 1 articutno in to misty with 0 headsgg out skilled i won and he conceded
>>57048033Half the fags in this thread are done already. What's your excuse? My excuse is that my phone is charging. :D
>>57048028How many wins though?
>>57048033ive already rated the game with 1 star in the playstore from 4 accounts... what else can i do
>>57048028What's the benefit of being top rank in a pokemon app?
Got mine with the forbidden rat deck. I'll go on concede streak now to help other fags good luck to you fellas
>>57048033The recent Yugioh games are all about consecutive wins for their ranked games
>>57048039It's 3 wins if my memory serves. It's been a while since I played that one>>57048041Yeah, what's the point having the emblem if you suck?
I want them to release the new miniset in the middle of this event just for the utter chaos.
>>57048006Tried out this deck it's bretty gud, I just swapped the pokedex for a potion though
>>57048042Fuck you, pitywiniggers like you suck dick. I don't need pitywins.
>>57048042This was a snooze fest with ex articuno and greninja absolutely sweeping the floor off the first game, but great idea, time to let other anons get their wins. Any ideas for a meme deck guaranteed to fail?
its over
>>57048056Ditto/Porygon
>>57048039>>570480482 out of 3https://shadowverse.fandom.com/wiki/Ranked_Match
>>57048056Post your deck bro
Uhh bros didn't get a single thanks from the 5 nips that I smashed in a row...
just now as we speak im setting up 5 auto clickers in 5 blue stacks instaces which will repeatedly concede 3 second in to the match
>>57048052I can imagine rats will give it a hard time if you cannot build your Alakazam in time but if someone can get 5 wins with it, it certainly has potential
Got my 5 consecutive wins. Final record: 6-1. The last two were gifted to me by the opponent trolling and the last one bringing a non meta deck. The first 3 were very close.
>>57048056Omastar
Wow! Nintendo is so kind, they're adding even more gambling to this game because now you can gamble for a shinier badge on your account!I love coinflips! I love how interactive they are compared to every single other digital and physical CCG on the market!
>>57048048Woah bro I was talking about top rank and now you're implicating implications? Crazy, anons are like pitbulls ready to eat a baby defending an emblem that's not even being attacked
>>57048054Actually nevermind, I'll just play Arbok decks to fuck with every Mewtwo fags I see, thanks anon
I am having second thoughts about XSpeed. Nothing like opening with 2 of those being deadweight in your hand (since you only have one pokemon)
>5 wins for a square purple emblem instead of rounddeath to capitalism
>>57048069Anon, every CCG players knows top rank is for bragging rights. What are you even insinuating?
I see that everyone who breezed through this event used Pikachu. I guess the rat is still the king huh?
>>57048070Good. Make people work for their wins.
>>57048071Yeah that's the thing, you don't feel it as much until it costs or nearly costs you a game. Potion is like this too. It's not like you can overcap so if they OHKO you anyway then opening double Potion is dead. And then early Sabrina is dead if you have no aggro set up. Asking for 5 wins in a row given the current card pool is a joke.
Blessed f2p deck.
>>57048076you either win or lose fast, thats it. what will pikachu do with 90 dmg against charizard with 4 energy and full hp? or mewtwo?
>>57048070Very based
>>57048076Nah, I used the cat and slaughtered my rat match.
>>57048057Fun fact about this. If you're on a 0 win streak the expected number of additional games you'll need to play to get a 5 win streak will still be 32 no matter how many games you've previously played.
>>57048076It's the most consistent against current meta at least. Mewtwo probably have higher winrate but it has its hard counter and consistency issues and you're fucked if you lose just once in this event.
>>57048076Pikachu doesn't have any Stage 2 cards or coin flips (unless you rely on Zapdos's 2nd move which you shouldn't unless you have no other play) so it's the most 'no nonsense' EX deck there is.
>>57048083Charizard doesn't get to ramp up that fast vs Pikachu with Moltres being weak to electric. Arcanine does though. Mewtwo by itself can't ramp up in time either. You're kind of forced to tank with baby Mewtwo to stall which nobody is seemingly doing in pubs anyway. In competitive both those decks can beat Pikachu with hidden tech. But not those cards by themselves.
>>57048062Psyduck/GolduckMagikarp/GyaradosFroakie/Frogadier/Greninja x 2Articuno ExMisty x 2Professor Oak x 2Pokeball x 2Red CardSabrinaX speedGyarados is so good at stopping articuno and Mewtwo ex if you manage to Misty it before it gets the ball rolling since everyone forgets the -1 energy per strike, two greninja to ensure I get one on the field ensures water shuriken and blizzard are chipping away fodder in the back for more points, and psyduck’s confusion is unsurprisingly helpful in early game before you start slicing 70 damage with a low energy investment water move. I must’ve fought 4/5 Misty decks and just got luckier. Save your Sabrina for just the right moment.
>>57048047ahh duel links, you needed a 5 game win streak just to rank up near the highest rank, so you needed to striing together 5 5-game winstreaks to get to max rankabsolute cancer, so it's kinda funny seeing people seethe about this event
>>57048083Yeah but how many times you can get your charizard to that point in consecutive matches? Pikachu can deal 90 damage in 4 turn which kills most basics and stage 1s, and in case of a bad hand with no Pika the bench basics like Electrode can still put up somewhat of a fight.
>5 wins in a row of coin flips and luck of the draw openers Fuckin hooks, 2 nukes weren't enough
>Good draw>Get red carded >I don't draw a single evolution in over 12 turnsAlright man incredible game incredible event
>>57048109Yeah I'm used to that shit but I haven't bothered making a serious climb since hitting the highest rank in Duel Links and Master Duel once. Not going to bother doing it here either unless it comes naturally, which it probably won't since I'm playing a coinflip deck lmao
>0 energy misty turn 1
I don't care about winning, I just hate Charizard with a passion and have for years Running Mistycuno just to sack as many Zardniggers as I run across and instantly scooping to anyone else
>>57048139isint like moltres overpowered? 3 energy for 1? it would make sense if you stop once you get tails like misty does
>>57048065>already won against 3 pikashittersAlakazam is pretty based if you can get him up yeah
>>57048148everything is based if you can get it up, what kind of a discusion are we even having in this thread? everything works if you get lucky, wish i gotten lucky. irl with a girlfriend and job tbqhwy. im not feeling it bros
>>57048144First you need to draw it. Then you have to spend turns coin flipping while your moltres sits and dies since inferno dance is an attack and not an ability. When it dies, sure you might have a Charizard and or Arcanine all ready to go, but you’d still have zero points and all they need to do is kill one or the other. It’s risky but yes in theory it’s great.
If anyone is into peak KANTOOO...9517-5024-3244-2067
Any good Melmetal deck?
I hope it was this niggas 5th match kek
>>57048169It does look like a cool deck. I might be able to flex those copies of 2 FA Alakazam and 2 FA Weezing>1 KadabraMaybe not
Wow, a whole 3 hourglasses from the event. These events are really generous, that's almost as half as much off the pack timer as I get for a good night's sleep.
>>57048176FA Alakazam looks fantastic but regular Alakazam's art is just really bland and boring
>>57048178There's more as you complete missions
>casual coinflip game>add in tryhard modeLol
>>57048178I see the Pocket general IQ has not increased.
Piece of cake
>going for 5th win>starting hand is Basic, Xspeed, Potion, Giovanni, Sabrina>next 2 topdecks are stage 1s for my other pokemon lineskill based game
I really hope they never bring this event back. I'll take 45 wins any day.
>>57048189I had 4 wins, made a misplay and had to restart. Unfortunate.
>>57048195My last game was against Mewtwo ex and they kept fumbling to get gardevoir thankfully long enough to get 2 Starmie EX cards online alongside a fully flipped Articuno
>>57048047Pokemon TCGP should follow Duel Links and show both players' consecutive win streaks so far on the VS screen
>streak ended on game 5 because I was 1 turn short, going first on the final game in a mirror matchI am livid. I've also been going first for 97% of my matches.I've already secured the silver emblem, so that's something, I guess.
Cool game I guess
>>57048201Damn, they do that? Sounds like an origin of a villain
>>>/v/696727902they are laughing at us
>>57048205maybe if you spent more money the match making ai would be in your favour
test
Took me 25 min, and only.lpst the first match.Hot an 8 win streak before I got got
>>57048198My loss was vs. Misty getting 3 heads t1 too, so I shouldn't have won to begin with, which makes the mistake hurt more.
Stupid Machamp nigger was winning and ran out of time in his turn throwing the match LMAOOOOO
>>57048209I've put in like $250
>>57048006yoink
>>57048205Should've played around it
By the skin of my teeth.
>only play 5 battles>win them allEZ. Simply win and don't lose. The first win was due to my opponent going AFK.
>>57048216That's even sadder.
>>57048216You deserve getting owned for being a sad whale
>>57048216>paypiggy gets fuckedAlways a treat to see
>tfw use meme caterpie deck to throw for my fellow anons>retard rat deck keeps fucking up zapdos ex’s coin flips, I live every attack>manage to evolve caterpie and Venusaur ex and just heal and dealI was trying to throw but I couldn’t help myself.
im going to wait a few days so the try hard sweats arent playingworked for the last emblem
Now that I got my 5 wins, might get the rest of the wins against my side account then throw in the event matches. What's the minimum amount of mons ur allowed to have in a deck? Would be funny if I could just do a deck with only 1 basic mon so ppl immediately win after ko'ing my first mon.
>>57048232I think for this one there will be more desperate tryhards at the end of the event though.
>>57048235You have to be 18 years or older to post here anon. Yes I know you’re a child just by how you type and your retarded question that could simply be answered by trying to make a smaller deck.
>>57047938>its not even the pidgeot one that is actually playableholy highroll
>>57048232The last event was worse near the end because by then literally everyone was playing Pika Mewtwo, and in the beginning people were still running jank like Misty 48T
>open pack, rare effect plays>another shitty repeated 1 star instead of a useful 4 diamond exI hate this game
>>57048239Trial and error is a pain. Anyways looks like it's only 1 mon, so got my throw deck ready.
>the VS missions aren't tied to the ranked system>completed a bunch of them just doing my daily thanks in private match
>opponent concedes early >doesn't count as a winthe fuck?
>4th win>Wigs double sleep me>losefuck me man. i really hope we never get events like this ever again
>tfw got a fuck load of rare cards>...but no complete competitive deck
Wait hold up we might be doing itWish me luck bros
On second thought, I'm glad my bad luck went into my recent packs being useless repeat pulls if my good luck was saved for the 5 streak being stress-free
How many wins do you need to complete all the stardust missions? It's 5 wins for the emblem, but how many for the stardust/hourglasses?
>>57048259Pretty sure it's 50 like last time.
>>57048254gl famalam>>5704825950 wins, like last event, you don't have to play the event though, you can do versus for that
>>57048251same, it's the doubles of some cards that fuck me over. I've got like...2 Charizard EX, including the immersive art, 3 Zapdos EX, 2 Articuno EX, and a few others...but then only one Pikachu EX, one Moltres EX, one Mewtwo EX, one Starmie EX, one Marowak EX...I just try to run with one anyway but I wish I had doubles of any of them. could use points I guess but I don't wanna lol
>>57048265>50 wins, like last event, you don't have to play the event though, you can do versus for thatSo only the 5 in a row has to be from the event queue and the other 45 could be from private matches?
>>57048264>>57048265What the hell but I'm already done after 6 wins. I don't want to play another 60-70 games...
>le going for my 5th match>goes second>fuck yeah>opponent open with 4 energy Misty Articuno exMotherfucker
First try luhmaothanks Mewtwo EX
>>57048270The missions work in private match too >>57048247
>>57048280Nice, I don't want to battle people anymoreI'll just battle myself, I can't deal with society right after this event
Make it 10 next time
Pikachu ex, my closest companion
>main account has 5 charizard ex and 1 moltres ex>alt account has 4 moltres ex and 1 charizard exWhat a stupid game, I will still not pay though.
>>57048254LETS GOOOOO
>>57048057>>57048087I read this then immediately got 5 wins in a row.
>>57048228Switched to dishonest pikashit and got my 5 wins in my next 5 matches
>15 wins and 5 in a row on the same match.Looked fucking desperate, opponent opened double Articuno and double Frog + double Frogadier + 2 heads Misty on t2.However, they never got to either Greninja.I had to carefully navigate the two Articuno, and what won the game was the legend, regular ass Voltorb.It still came down to him Red Carding my double Sabrina away, but I drew one back anyways.
>>57048264Nope, it's only 15.
>>57048270They stop at 15 this time
>>57048291>Have 2x Moltres ex, but only 1 Charizard ex>Have 2x PIkachu ex, but 0 Zapdos>Have 2x Nidoqueen and 2x Nidoking highest rarity, but can't get the base/stage 1s>2x Starmie Ex, no other waters>2x Highest rarity Eevee, but only have Flareon>2x Highest rarity Alakazam, but no M2 or Gard
Got 4 win streak but lost to a fucking Ninetales one shotting all my basics.
Any reason I shouldn't just consneed spam to help anons after I hit my 5
What a fucking unfun game. I could tolerate it because it didn't require me to actually play. But now that I have to deal with the mechanics of this game it's really unfun. Probably will drop it soon.
>>57048316Pika doesn't really need Zap, you can just substitute it with anything even pinchurchin
>>57048323Pitywins suck ass.
>>57048329For who? Pretty sure most people will take a freebie happily just to get the event done
>>57048329Yeah but this event is cancer
>been playing since reset>keep getting knocked back to the beginning every single time I win 2 or 3 wins in a row>finally win 4th with lucky Zapdos EX nuke on full HP M2EX>get to the 5th battle>mfw wtf is going on with that deck, because I have no idea>Sabrina out their ArtEX and pass>opp uses Misty>tails>concedeThank fuck, I'm done with this fuck ass event.
>>57048335All for nothing dude you gave me a giggle when I saw the draw deck censored
LMAO goodbye
I never got anyone concede on me after 30+ matches. It's clear they're matching everyone who completed the event with one another so there's no use for your good samaritan bullshit
>>57048316You can still make a good pikachu deck without zapdos. Starmie ex + greninja (promo) is pretty good. Mewtwo is boring to play. Sucks on the other accounts.
>>57048342I ran into some level 12 guy with a really shitty grass deck. Granted I was playing a meme deck but I drew a godhand and felt so bad I consneeded
>>57048323Most people are not anons.
>>57048331For me fuck you pitywiniggers. You think your so much better than to use your best deck against others? Get off your high horse. This isn't about helping others, this is about you thinking your some king giving others wins because you feel sorry for them.
>>57048341>get my 5 wins>spend the rest of the event fucking up people's streaks with RNG dragonite casino bullshit
>win 2>play against a jap with full arts of everything and lose >next game is someone using rattata>win 2>brick against misty tryhard articuno >next game someone is playing caterpieI’m noticing
>>57048354samestreak stops for me at 2... im.. NOTIIICING...
>>57048340Glad to have provided a giggle. I fucked it up though, I forgot ArtEX's eyes.
>>57048351This but Weezing Wigglytuff for me
>>57048348Dude calm down I just wanted to help people out
So this is the power of magiGOD...
All these niggers are time stalling too
>>57048327>>57048345Yeah, I got my 5 wins with my friend pikachu.By the way, are any of the eevelutions worth building a deck around? eevee being a normal really seems to hurt anything I can think of.
>>57048381>By the way, are any of the eevelutions worth building a deck around?Not at the momentI'm sure when a good ex one comes along they will be though
Deck is 2 of everythin>Dome>Kabuto>Kabutops>Machop>Machoke>Machamp EX>Red Card>Prof. Oak>Potion>Poké BallI know I oughta run a Sabrina or two, and maybe a Giovanni as well, but what do I drop?
>>57048392drop the red cards for sabrinas
I'm gonna run it until I win
>>57048381Not really. Flareon and Vaporeon are too slow with requiring 3 energy and there's better stage 1s for their role. You can in theory work Jolteon as poor man Zapdos ex but being stage 1 is rough and Eevee is a dead bench for Pika ex
>>57048370He's doing it on purpose out of spite because no one gave him any pity wins when it counted and doesn't want others to be blessed with a concede, you're doing good anon, he's just salty
Thanks Lt Surge and the Hole punchers. The anti bird deck does wonders.
>>57048413what's the deck? sounds interesting
What are some good decks that match up well versus starmie/Articuno ex. If misty can get a single heads or starmie attacks on curve it's all over.
>find the pokemon for a charizard ex deck>try to play it>two games in a row where I pull moltress EX and not a single other basic or pokeball for like 5 turnsjoke deck
Big thanks for sharing anon >>57047312, glad I managed to hit one
>>57048395Thank you, truly
>>57048446There's no real counterplay to that brother
>>57047946Based
>>57048449Just now? So it's still live?
>>57048446I won once versus Articuno going first. A benched Exeggutor EX carried with two heads
If you go second, Machamp on curve could beat out even Mewtwo. But if you go first, however, you're screwed
>>57048459not if the heart of the cards beats to your music brother
>>57048459What do you use for the other mon? Dugtrio?
I went all the way to a 9-win streak while completing all the missionsBlaine deck is pure kino
>>57048454Yeah, he posted the time he pulled it. Add 3 days and that's the time it's expected to expire. So there's around 23 hours to go.
>finally climb back to 4 wins>matched with a deck I'm disadvantaged againstI fucking hate this game.
In my head, I was thinking to myself "I hope they never do this shitty consecutive wins event ever again", and then I realized they don't give a fuck and they definitely will do this shit again in January.
Trying to win with a Venusaur deck that has holes. So far, I've been up against five Mewtwo decks and won twice but not in a row.
Got the 5-streak using Wigglyninja, had a few bricks but felt good fucking over Pikachu/Mewtwo decks with sleep.
GGEZ, thanks Misty
>>57048475If it's pre-planned months in advance, they probably already did slot it for the future already. But there's hope that if there's enough negative feedback about it they could cut it, since it's not like it's new content, just copypasted missions, so it's not like they wasted dev time if they remove it to feel regretful about removing it.
>>57048475I like it. It's nice to play battles with stakes.
>>57048381Building a deck around? No. But they fit into other decks. Vaporeon is fine on an articuno deck, jolteon on a rat deck, both of them fit on a dragonite deck, and flareon is the slightly better ninetales with better bulk and offense.
NOTHING TO DO
Is my account fucked? I didn't do anything weird on this account, so I don't know how I don't have my battles listed when I finished both PVP events.
>>57048496Did you change your name?
>pika ex abusing metani*gerseww
>>57048507As if Pikachu ex decks aren't heroic for countering the degenerate Misty cancer
>whining about 5 consecutive wins that can be attempted infinitelyThe first GP in Shadowverse required you to get 5 wins for that limited cardback, and whoever loses a game is booted out of mode. That's right, for every owner of the cardback, at least there's the fury of 4 losers
Why would I pay 2 wonderpicks to get a fucking magnemite? Are they stupid?
>>570484312 Magnemite, 2 voltorb and 1 (one) pikachu and their respective evos2 Surges, 1 Sabrina, 1 Giovanni and the obligatory Oaks, potions, and pokeballs. Basic idea is that you get either Voltorb or Magnemite turn one to punish whatever EX Bird gets put out on the field. If you get Voltorb, Electrode, and Gio you can kill any of the three outright. If you don't get that exactly, Surge and Magneton are there to help with charging Electrode or Raichu. Late game, Raichu comes out and nukes anything that's still alive. You could surprise evolve it and Surge, or leave it out so they hesitate to use their Sabrina. >>57048446 Psyduck forces them to slow to normal energy gain, but it's super weak, so it won't last past the first couple turns. Persian is crazy when it hits, but it's also a coinflip. if you're opposed to that, you're SOL.
love this lil guy
>>57048522You'll regret not pulling it when antimeta Magnezone are all the rage to counter Dialga ex decks
>>57048522It's a nostalgic bait. That crude art was from TCG like a decade ago
>>57048524>Sandslash but worse
>>57048522A promo magnemite, you wouldn't want to miss out, would you?
>>57048518bitch I don't give a shit about some other game, you could scrape the floor with examples of the worst shit and it wouldn't matter because this game is this game and not that game, I'm here to play pokemon
>>57048523sounds cool anon. I've got the pokemon so I'll give it a shot
>>57048531Can't wait for (you) to bitch more then in the future, since GP is all the craze for online card game
>>57048529Kingambit next week, trust the plan
>>57048202>>57048474Fuck this mode, fuck this game, I'm never gonna try another event like this. I'm honest-to-god shaking with wound-up ansiety.
>>57048538I'm glad you're glad bitch because then nothing fucking changed regardless of your post, there was bitching before and there'll be bitching after
>>57048507>not going to Las Vegas to counter pikafags
>>57048518It's factually not infinitely. You have 1 week.
On the one hand I hate the 5 win streak because I like playing rogue decks and homebrews and Ill have to grind a bit to get a streakOn the other hand its extremely funny seeing people stress out over the 5 this much already
>>57048553True but by then everyone will be focusing on the upcoming miniset instead, and the next PvP for it
Kek get fucked M2fag
>>57048540>Kingambit>Deal 100 damage for every point you opponent has taken.
>>57048560Please understand. Some just hate losing in a children card game
>>57048564Shouldn't it hit harder for the more points your opponent has to mirror the ability of fainted Pokemon in the party?
just used pika zeb and got good luck throughout, lowkey want to test decks in the event more and just give free wins at the end but some people concede early so ehh
Did everyone stop playing red card or what?Played 11 games and haven't been red carded once. Good for me ig, most of those games being red carded woulvve been my losecon
>>57047997I got CRAB'D running Pika and honestly I wasn't even mad that I lost, I was mad I had about 6 cards left in my deck and there had to be at least 4 basics in there. The one turn I needed to pull a basic, I got an Oak instead.I was on a 2 or 3 streak or something.
>>57048560Well the contrast is because of how much people kept spamming that it's a casual game you're not supposed to take too seriously to excuse why there's not much to do, when this event is a rude awakening to that narrative
what's wrong with the matchmaking?I fought 3 single digit level players and my level is 39
>>57048578More common in tourneys than ladder, I still see it from time to time though.
Got my sweaty award, time to go back to chilling with VenuLilli on NOEX.
>>57048578Someone Red Carded me and it was a mistake on their part because my hand was a bunch of useless X Speed and Sabrina and so on, and they gave me more Pokemon card ammo to bench for my eventual Pikachu win.
>>57048587>what's wrong with the matchmaking?There isnt one yet____
>>57048578I got one Red Card in 15 wins, and it did nothing to stop me.
>>57048090Zapdos luckshitted me through 2 games, actually. It was absolutely a Hail Mary play, but both times I needed him to lock in, he had my back.
>>57048522Why do you even care so much?99% of the time there's fucking nothing worth on wonderpick
>>57048606I've grabbed quite a few EXs, full arts and deck finishing cards via wonderpicks
>>57048606>he doesn't believe in the 20% luckgods
>kino event>alive breadnice.
>>57048587My 5th win was against a single digit player with a Blaine rental deck.Kinda felt bad, but a win is a win.
>>57048606You don't know shit about wonderpick?People sharing "god packs" on discord servers and it's far more efficient than buying a lot of pokegold
are we adding Girls frontline 2 into our gacha rotation, lads?
THIS FUCKING GAME IS RIGGED I used to win all my games with my weezing deck. Now that theres an event i always go first and i get bricked not being able to draw weezing, arbok, or kogaEVERY FUCKING GAME
>>57048624>wonderpicking god packsYou're unironically bricking your account
>>57048628not him but what are you talking about
>>57048638They can detect if you're wonderpicking GodpacksGachas are notorious for fucking up rates if you try to exploit the system
>>57048504>>57048519I didn't change my name. Weird glitch I guess. It's back to normal now.
>>57048642>Gachas are notorious for fucking up rates if you try to exploit the systemSchizo
>>57048616>kino eventYou shut your whore mouth.
>>57048628>>57048642>t. DeNA employee
>>57048649>>57048654I'm just warning you manDon't complain if you don't get anything good in packs for a long time
>>57048643I read somewhere that if you consneed too many times in a row, your battle record is reset. I've no proof of verification and since you said it went back, it was probably a bug like you said.
This message is from the bottom left gang. All hail BL!
>>57048668I bet you do like BL
>>57048668>>57048669hehe
>>57048528>a decade agorocket set was 25 years ago bro
>>57048528Sit down when I tell you this, but the Team Rocket set that art is from came out in Japan in 1997
>>57048626Maybe play a good deck instead of low-tier meta gatekeeping
>>57048678>>57048683team rocket is getting a set again next year bros, buybuybuy!
This event isn’t worth malding over, 99% of you guys will get the trophy. Pokemon Duel had 11-streak invincible trophies with streak-based matchmaking and type-specific metas during said events, that shit was truly crazy
My dad works at DeNA so I'm playing the beta tester version of pocket right now. I can't say much or he'll get fired and I also can't take screenshots, but if you guys are wondering he told me they'll implement second chances on wonder picks in february, but it'll require a new hourglass that looks like picrel.
>>57048642Never heard any account got banned for doing thatI guess it's the way... for now
>>57048686First I'm hearing of this, that's pretty hype. The reintroduction of owner's Pokémon seems pretty noteworthy. I may invest, I may oink, I may consoom
>>57048695A quick look didn't specify what's in the set.Back in the day, it wasn't owner's Pokemon that was tied to TR, but Dark evolutions.Could be that or something else.
You just know
>>57048695I wish I could buy Surging Sparks but as soon as it comes out in stock, 5 minutes later it's out of stock ffsBought the JP boxes no problem
account status: non-bricked
>>57048449Very nice
>>57048695actually ____'s pokemon and dark pokemon would both just cause the modern consume to shit their pants once they realize koga's grimer can't evolve into regular muk and they have to collect the whole set
>>57048708I haven't even fucking seen a Chansey Pick since this event began.
>>57048708Two of each, right?
>>57048721>he's not autisticly checking his wonder picks every 15 minutesngma
>>57048713>blaine cannot give 30 damage to his own pokemon>brock cannot give energy to his own pokemonSo it's EX but shittier?
Do you only get rewards for winning or can I just consneed a dozen times to get everything relevant. I don't care about the emblem
>>57048734hourglasses for participating, shinedust for winning
havent even started this trash event i already feel like crying
>>57047964>>57047971>>57047973I did it! Thank you all, and thank you to the Mewtwobro who gave me a free win, Mewtwobros are my new best friends. Now I will return the favor by throwing all the matches.I used my new deck brew, I would not recommend but it's fun as hell.
>>57048742It's an emblem. Don't sweat it. It's only use is to look pretty.
Can you cheese this event by teaming up with a friend and then throwing?
Won 5/5 with standard misty/cuno/starmie, misty paid out favourably with mostly 1 head flips.Beat 2 pikachus, 1 mirror match, 1 dark type deck and a match that was forfeited after misty gave 2 heads on turn 2.Now I can use a bad wigglytuff deck to chase the missions.
>>57048747I always thought poliwrath was a cool guy
jesus that was stressful
>>57048763no, it's the event queue not private queue
>>57048769who doesnt afraid of anything
>chancey pick>4 magnetite, 1 bulba>Want magnetite>Get bulbaFree picks have given 0 promo cards so far
I wish you could block pityniggers in this game.
>>57048731with modern card designs, yeseven back then i only remember dark vileplume and dark weezing being played
>>57048793>Freebie doesn't have a promo>always get the 'mon>Freebie has a promo>you get 1 event shop point
So we all agree that the full art Moltres ex is the prettiest card right?
>>57048788He's not even afraid to be a fighting type
>>57048825My crown Mewtwo is the prettiest card.
>>57048825That's Kazam and Champ
>>57048769He's beyond cool.>Hey Poliwrath want some energy?>The team needs it more than I do, I'll hold them the enemy back until the team is at full strength. I'll try to save some for you, no promises!
>>57048825No. Immersive Pikachu is.
>>57048837>gets blitzed by a pikachu and dies
>>57047970No Blaine does jack shit to Mewtwo and Articuno exists. Fuck off.
>>57048836>alakazam, machamp and golem are all stage-2 trade evolutions>machamp and alakazam get a badass FA>golem gets Brock supportdoesn't seem fair
>>57048847gengar's part of the original link trade family too
>>57048847Gaygar sucks for a shillmon.
My dude is the universe's counterbalance for every single time Misty has flipped heads.
>>57048845>mewtwo>starts slapping their shit with Farfetch'd>ninetales can just 120 damage I agree Articuno is a bad matchup, but you are underestimating the RDW of Pocket
>Win 4 Matches easily>Last one is against type disadvantage>MisplayFuck this shitty ass game. I'm back to Yugioh
>>57048863>Last one is against type disadvantageI'm pretty sure your last match is rigged to be this.
>>57048863*negates your attempt to go back to Yugioh and bounces you back to Pokemon TCG*
>>57048864No. Mine was a type advantage.
>>57048864Duel me in Edison format. If I win, you go back into the PvP mines.
>>57048867Oh so I just got unlucky three times in a row, cool
>>57048866A trap card?
>>57048841That's the plan, it's real easy to KO a pikachu with -20hp or -40 hp.
>>57048747I'd try Poliwrath but the game doesn't want to give me Poliwags or the second Poliwhirl
>playing wiggly/weezing>usual gay brick but at least I have wigglytuff ex out even if it’s my only mon>opp gets zebstrika on curve so I can’t sleep stall with first turn jiggly, also has pika ex on the bench with a full bench of fodders>Wiggly is in Pika KO range and my next card is Sabrina, can either stall the Zeb for a single turn and lose to Pikachu anyways or Sab and ohko one of his bench fodders to limit Pika (if he doesn’t draw another basic) or hope he throws and gives me the Pikachu outright >Gives me the Pika>Wiggly sleeps it and it stays asleep >ConsneedGood shit but goddamn we really need a cheap dark basic in miniset
>>57048864I got Articuno while playing with Pika
>>57047851>5 consecutive win event>mentally freaking out, knowing i'll probably end up getting to 4 wins before the game decides to end my streak>end up completing all the missions within an hourYes I used Pikacheese. No I'm not sorry. Fuck those kinds of events.
Haha.. imagine if they do a 10 win consecutive event
>>57048625I'm adding infinity nikki
>>57047851>Erika AI TCG CompanionHaven't been here in a hot minute what the fuck is this faggot shit?
I only need to win one more for the gold emblem, wish me luck.
>>57048899who's the CEO of DeNa>>57048945break a leg
>>57048945
You cunts said this was going to be hard. Literally won my first 5 games. Went 1st in 4 of them. Just play meta. I'll be conceding games later on to help out
>play event match>go second against type disadvantage>concede because work related thing comes up>go first, concede>go first, concede>go first, concede>go first, concedeI'll just play later
Trade in cards for pack points WHEN
>A Pocket Poketuber said it should take on average 40 wins to complete this event, assuming you are using a Meta deck and the average matchup rate of Meta vs Meta is 50-55%But /vp/ I know you are better than that! Surely it took you no more than 15 matches right? Surely /vp/ is not a bunch of filthy casuals who cant win t matches in a row against Pikascrubs? Anon...?Me? I got mine on the 9th match. My first attempt I bricked on 4th match against a Mewtwo who got turn 3 Gardy. But otherwise this event was hella easy. I think its my duty to continue playing in order to filter scrubs from obtaining this medal too easily
>>57048954>>57048964
>>57048964Based filterchad. Those that give pitywins are cucks
>>57048964it took me five matches
>>57048954>>57048964Duality of man
>>57048690Something like this is actually coming. It's why It says number of picks.
>8 cards left>all four of my oaks and pokeballs as well as the two evolutions I was waiting all game for buried in therefuck this holy shit
>>57048953Thanks Pikachu!I couldn't be luckier, the opponent was low-leveled, had a bad deck, and started the match, meanwhile I got a great starting hand.
>>57048885I had to buy a second copy, I probably opened over 100 Charizard packs and the only one I got was from wonder trade.
Wigglytuff + Exeggutor for the five winsI have never seen a Dragonite/Articuno just bend over as hard as that before.>Dratini start>Both Mistys are tails on the later benched Articunos>Dragonite by their third turn, but just water energy galore>Kill Dragonite so in comes the water energy Articuno>Suddenly only lightning energy for the remaining turns so it can never can't use Blizzard
>>57048964It took me 7 matches. Won 6 lost 1.
>>57048964Well, I'm full f2p, and didn't start at the launch, still managed to get the emblem, so I'm good.
>>57048986
>last turn>I lost>opponent just needs to hit me to win>spends their entire turn allocating energy and using potions and giovannis and evolving and shit before he finally lands the killing blowIf you think you're getting a "Thanks!" from me you are sorely fucking mistaken.
Raichu OTKing Moltres securing my victory.
>>57049007Did he thank you though?
>>57049023He did
>>57049007Some players just love to gloat their win. I will just go for the lethal. Saves both of us time
>>57048964Went 5-0 instantly with Mewtwo EX
>>57049029So he won and he's the better sportsman. Double loss on your behalf.
>>57049007why not just concede then
>make joke deck to give my opponents free wins>bunch of full arts that don't even work together>hand scope then redcard to unbrick their hand>they concedeI don't know if they are also giving away free wins or if people just reach for the concede button too easily.
>third match>started with a single Charmander with evolution line in hand>they dropped froakie, articuno, 2 staryu>froakie and a staryu evolvedWelp, that's a wrap
just running schizoid decks in the event now, no more weezing chungus bricks but both wincons were at the very bottom
>>57048964>>57048954It's easy now because the game is still new and has a bunch of retards playing shit decks, if this event comes back in a year or later it will be hell because all the casuals will have moved on to something else and only the tryhards will remain.
>lose, get friend request>yeah alright I guess I'll>user's friend requests are fullalright listen here you cheeky fuck
>>57048954Dont concede. Just play a meme deck. If they still lose to it than they deserve to lose
This deck won me 5 consecutive battles, including against Mewtwo Ex and Venugant Ex.
These battle events are only good for clocks, fuck winning or losing.
>>57049054Maybe they only care for the clock.
I've been incredibly lucky with bonus picks this time around
>>57048954I AM running meta and sometimes you get a hand so bad it's an instant loss. I hate these kinds of missions where you need to get really lucky to complete it
>>57049088>>57049088>>57049088
>>57049076>missed promo mankey
>opponent opened with 2 Moltres>ohshit.jpg>3 tails>1 heads>managed to take down a MoltresGeez, what a close match...
Got my 5 wins with Arbok/Weezing. Wasn't any different from normal pvp. I forfeited 10 matches afterwards so I hope someone here got a free win from me.
>>57049185Yatta! I was at for hours trying deck until I finally used Pika. I got lucky thougheverbeithaps and ran into two Articunis with failed Mistys on win 4 and 5.I'm gonna run a deck consisting of a single Magikarp for the remainder of this event. I'm sure that'll fill out my daily like tickets nicely lol.
