I noticed that Celebi has no resistances on these cards. Likely because it has 7 weaknesses in game or some shit like that.

Using slab before oak will brick you if slab gets oak and put it on the bottom of your deck. Everyone know this
>>
Coin flip in this game is fucking rigged
>>
yes let me put this shitty normal type in my deck to reduce the number of slab hits
>>
>>57098552
never tried the deck but it feels like Leaf is better most of the time unless you manage to lead with Mew turn 1
>>
>>57098558
No ?
If the 2nd Oak is in 3rd draw of your deck, Oaking into slab will send it to the bottom as well. Oaking first may reduce the number of psy cards left in the deck and reduce the odds of a hit with slab.
>>
>>57098552
Both but young oak at 1 is probably best if you’re just using mew as a wall while m2 gets set up
>>
>>57098558
>>57098586

You'd likely not have all three in your hand at the same time.
This does raise the risk of Slabbing your FIRST Oak and placing it at the bottom of your deck. Which would suck.

There are ways of forcing a deck shuffle, however, like using a pokeball when you have no more basic pokemon in your deck.

I'm assuming you're playing M2
>Oak->Pokeball->Slab
Slab, even if it doesn't draw a pokemon, sends the non-pokemon card at the bottom of the deck, effectively raising the chances of drawing Kirlia/Gardevoir.
Playing ball after slab will shuffle the deck, meaning that there's a chance the non-pokemon you sent to bottom gets replaced by a copy of Kirlia/Gardevoir, lowering your chances of drawing a copy.

You're an idiot.
Yes the other 98 percent of the body is what defines attraction, masculine or feminine features, a pussy on a man is not appealing, but the LACK of a pussy is a major turn off, even more so what that means, which is being A MAN.
Someone you cannot make babies with
Someone fundamentally not a woman.

Futa isn't gay because the girl still has a pussy, and it's a female body female form.
Traps aren't gay if it looks convincingly like a woman and it's fully clothed (so only in anime) but once you mentally know it's a man, has a dick and no pussy, that's a turn off.

It's harder and less nice to fuck an asshole too, and it isn't self lubricating
Generally men don't like cum either, especially another man's cum.

My concept of attraction is you look like a woman, and have woman parts, so lacking a vagina and having a dick instead, in the most grand fantasy scenario where you look exactly like my ideal woman the curves and face and voice and smell and everything, but you have a dick instead of a pussy, it would be upsetting at the very least.

And pussies can be beautiful attractive things in their own right, yes.
The sight of a good looking pussy is sexually enticing because I am a healthy man.
I am sexually intrigued by mentally picturing your naked form, which involves you having a pussy.

Wow this knife only spends 2 seconds in your heart before I take it out you still die.
It may not account for much time or surface area comparatively but that's merely quantity and it's quality over quantity.
You know a face is honestly a small part of the body too but it's THE most important thing for attraction.

Legitimately one of the worst takes I have seen.

>i want to start saving hourglasses again please god give me the cards i need to finish the dex...
There's 3.29x less cards to collect with time only being split in half, no pack split to handle and 8 free packs
If you actually wanted to save hourglasses you wouldn't have used any of them for the miniset until possibly the last week
>>
>>57098535
it's gonna be autistic because mewtwo players are the ones who want the easy wins. they're the man-children piloting the "super duper strongesterino" deck. it's the natural thing of the guy with 6 legendaries getting dogged by a guy with dudunsparce on his deck. they'll learn in due time. but for now? we watch them mald.
>>
sometimes I use my pokeball even when I've got no basics left in the deck, just to show it who the boss here is
>>
>>57098684
TL:DR
>>
>>57098715
Same. Also when I don't attach an energy to any pokemon it's not because I'm a retard who forgot because I was hurrying, it's because I'm just so cool I don't even need to use energy.

Oh wait, I forgot its ability only works on the active. My only advice now is KO snivy as soon as possible, I did it the other day and AI ended up calling New back to its hand despite being its only pokemon on field and self defeated itself.

I miss the "you just know" poster

Got Garydos ex off wp, filth like expected with standard 2 cuno ex opener, just used a second non ex gary to round it out but it works fine. Leaf is another card that makes the deck appreciably better because it’s now cycling around energy. Gonna try that anon’s chatot build too. I think there’s also a potential framework for Chatot/Aero EX/Golem with maybe 1 Onix and double brock but atm Rock is a bit suicidal to run in this meta.
>>
It's just bs man, this AI always has Serperior out on curve, has two Celebi EX which it always finds AND of course it always has an ExegEX fucker right away too.
Pretty sure red carding an AI is just a placebo too, they dont decide what cards they have in hand until they want to play it

+20 damage barely changes how many hits it takes to kill your Pokemon.
Starmie's Hydro Splash only needs 1 hit to kill Rapidash and Articuno's Blizzard only needs 1 hit to kill Ninetales or Rapidash.
If both players are bricked on basics they can kill you in 2 turns instead of 3, but if you're bricked you probably lost anyway.
But that's about it.
You do fine damage to them but if you don't get a good opening they have better aggro.
I think my winrate is around 30-35% for that matchup, but that's on the public queues where some players are really bad.

Do you guys actually keep track of who liked your showcase who you liked back? I just go into the community showcase option and scroll through all my friends and like them. I do this like 3-4 times a day whenever I open the app to check wonderpicks. And yeah most of them don't like me back but as long as I get at least 5 I don't really care.

No. The game only shows you your first 5 likes anyway. If you get more than 5 likes, it stops showing, so there's no way you can even guarantee who is liking your shit if you get more than 5 likes per day, unless it's the same 5 people every day (meaning they like your shit instantly at reset)

There are some names I recognize as habitual likers but I could point out everyone on my friends list who does it. You only get a notification for showcase likes when they actually result in a ticket, so anyone liking my showcase later into the day is a mystery to me.

Some of the most fun I've had recently is Greninja Druddigon Lumineon.
>6 Greninja, 2 Druddigon, 4 Lumineon
>2 Pokeball, 2 Pokeflute, 2 Research, 1 Leaf, 1 Misty
Had to make some concessions for the amount of Pokemon, but hooooly shit is it ever funny to delete someone's basic fodder, monster reborn it, then kill it AGAIN with Lumineon and Greninja for the win. Maybe Druddigon is not needed, but he's typically sitting up front collecting energy and using his ability while the bench is warming up. Good fun imho.
>>
>>57099632
>I did
There was one post which listed every possible combination. That post does not count, for obvious reasons.

>Pokeball first
You do this first because you do not want to Oak into a Basic, causing it to be a wasted Oak. Anyone who does not Pokeball first is a retard. Youmust Pokeball first. There was only one answer (besides mine) that said to Pokeball first. You do not want to Slab into a Basic, and you do not want to Oak into a Basic. This would cause both of these cards to be "dead" uses.

The only thing I'm not absolutely positive about is whether you Oak first or Slab first
>Oak after Pokeball
This is what my intuition tells me to do, because that's currently the correct order before we got Slab. Slab, to me, seems like a "bonus" draw. Slab just draws you a Psychic mon, and that Psychic mon can still be a mon you don't necessarily want. I feel like Pokeball -> Oak -> Slab gives you the most theoretical draws somehow.
>Slab after Pokeball
I would accept this also being the correct answer, which it might be. In this case, you are hoping that this functions as "Pokeball -> Pokeball -> Oak", which would be correct, but because Slab is not actually Pokeball, I have my reservations.

Lumineon has free retreat so there's no real worry if you started with that and need to swap to Druddigon. Greninja also obviously has his own attack if needed, and Misty will sometimes give him head. I just finished a match where I finished a basic with one Greninja, revived it, then finished it again, in the same turn, with my other Greninja and Lumineon. Get the fuck out of here that's so fucking funny.

>>Pokeball first
We've been over this before, we're talking about M2.
You only ball first if you don't need a Basic.
You Oak first to help get your Basic.
I'll post the example again to help you understand.
>Basic you don't need
>Trainer
>Trainer
>Basic you need
Risking wasting the Ball is preferred to not getting the needed Basic on M2.
After this, this leaves Ball -> Slab as the only possible option.
If you don't need a basic, you Ball then Slab into Oak.
>I feel like Pokeball -> Oak -> Slab gives you the most theoretical draws somehow.
This doesn't track at all.
>Psychic Mon
>Trainer
>Trainer
As you can see from my previous post, you would not Oak Slab in this situation.
>>
Man celebi really is just grass Mewtwo. They summon an OP basic that can tank, and the backline just prepares a stage 2 that makes the basic EX mon powerful. I really thought Celebi would focus more on support since grass has so many stage 1 and 2 pokemon that need help

You only use the card that is guaranteed to draw you a Basic... if you *don't* need a Basic?
What causes you to believe that makes any sense whatsoever? It doesn't. That doesn't make any sense. And you Pokeball first no matter what. Pokeball first thins the deck for both your Oak and your Slab to be more reliable hits for things that you do want.

I didn't read the rest of your post because obviously you're the retard.

Celebi is a mewtwo that is easier to set up, potentially does more damage, and has better healing, but is easier to one shot. Thats all i got lol

100% of the time, Pokeball before Oak and/or Slab is the correct answer. 100% of the time. No matter what.

You never Oak or Slab before Pokeball, you god damned retard. No matter what. That is *never* the correct play.

I still have 1 regular mewtwo on m2 deck meant for stalling but I might as well use the 2nd mew there right? Around same hp, can retreat easily and the deck usually dies on the 2nd poke anyway since most cards are ex save for gardervoir line.
If I get the a 2nd slab I will put it there instead later.

This isn't some Monty Haul "would you like to change your door?" shit. The cards in your deck have a fixed order.
Oak then Slab and Slab then Oak are equally likely to draw three cards and equally likely to bottom a Trainer card you wanted (like your second Oak).
The only meaningful distinction is that Oak gives you more information so you can make better informed decisions.

e.g.
if you plan to Oak then Slab but Oak draws Poke Ball you can Poke Ball before you Slab so you avoid distributing the bottoming if you miss
"herp derp just Slab away the Poke Ball?" the Poke Ball is equally likely to be the 3rd or 4th card in your deck, Slab can make it your next turn's draw
if you Slab and miss then Oak and Oak draws Poke Ball the Poke Ball will shuffle the bottomed card and you've lost the value of Slab

It's pretty self-evident that if you want to draw fewer basics you ball first and if you want to draw more basics you oak first, there's obviously a difference in expected outcome so naturally one of them isn't always going to be better, cardgames are full of corner cases.
>>
Mew/Ditto is jank as hell but I still love it. Also learned that Ditto can't use an opponent's benched Mew Ex's Genome Hacking since it would copy Ditto's Copy Anything, so you can't double copy to use an opponent's active mon's attack. On the other hand Mewex vs Celebi EX feels like US vs Russia during the cold war, we both just stalled until we each had 8+ energy on each and just swapped them in and let the nukes rain down on each other.

ponyta and rapidash and even magmar are stronger yes, but they're slower since they all require a flip, two energy or discarding all energy respectively.

Stronger = new set
faster = old set
>>
>>57099862
This whole conversation got started because of how slab enters into the equation. If the objective is to dig as hard as possible for gardevoir then ball > oak> slab should be correct. I don’t know how the math works out- because it is worth doing to know for certain given a few different deck configurations and turn numbers- but this feels like it gets you to garde most efficiently. This is why I wanted the numbers. But please, feel free to argue your way into the superiority you do crave
>>
>>57099888
New Ponyta with old Rapidash is going to be the meta. 10 damage is often not enough to offset a blaine hit by rapidash and the potential for 40 damage over 20 damage is too large to ignore.

I won’t be far behind, friend. Only cracked 240 hourglasses for this set. With Celebi being the only Gen 2 mon in the game, it really does seem like Johto’s a lock for set 2. Should have at least 600+ hourglasses ready to rip by then.

old rapidash = 70 dmg with blaine
new rapidash = 130 dmg with blaine and a heads.

i'd think people would go for the 130 cause that one shots pikachu.

Now new ponyta even brings it into contention cause 70 with heads and blaine ain't nothing to shake a stick at.

I guess it just winds up being if you want to risk losing on a coin flip.

New rapidash is good on paper but sucks in a blaine deck. You have rapidash because its a good 1 energy card that benefits from going first. If you run the new one, you are suddenly a worse deck going 1st.

And then the one game I can think of that actually does give you a choice, FEH, is proven to actually have those choices matter since the green orb is different from the blue orb which is different from the red orb. And guess what, that's another Nintendo gacha.

>New rapidash with blaine has 50% chance to deal 130 damage which is better than ninetales
I don't see it.
Ninetails does 120 damage with Blaine guaranteed. Rapidash does just 10 more but only for a 50% chance, and you have to spend a Blaine. So you might spend a Blaine and do only 70 damage instead.

Ninetails with Blaine guarantees a one shot on Pikachu EX and Celebi EX. Rapidash only does it with a coinflip.

Starmie EX, Zapdos EX, and Mew EX are the only meta relevant pokemon that Rapidash can kill that Ninetails can't, but its still a coinflip. Its an especially punishing coinflip with Mew EX because if you miss they'll play schrodinger's shota and your Blaine was suddenly totally wasted.

Now you could argue that you'd just play both anyway and that's true, but as mentioned before, old Rapidash's advantage was its speed. Particularly, not being punished for going first because you can still just set up a Rapidash and have it ready to go turn 3, while having the option to prepare a Ninetails turn 5 instead (otherwise its turn 7). You can circumvent this by using both new ponyta and rapidash to get the same speed and possibly higher damage on later turns, but lets look at what you gained and lost from this:

You lost:
>Your turn 3 speed is now entirely coinflip dependent
You gained:
>The ability to oneshot Starmie or Zapdos EX

And that's it. Is that really worth it?
>>
>>57100025
>but are you still supposed to kind of keep them separate like rock works with rock,
No that's whatever. If anyhting you're encouraged to mix Rock/Ground and Fighting, mix Psychic and Fairy, and mix Water and Ice since that diversifies your weaknesses. But the card pool isn't big enough for that to matter and some weaknesses are more problematic than others.
>>
>>57100021
The tcg part usually gets sperg seethe, they're like this for every card game that has any element of randomness, even the /bg/ general for board games has a dedicated autist that hates dealing with cards
>>
I wonder how they'll handle it as more cards come out and less players need to flip coins to make things happen. I guess they'll beef up the coin flip power, but I can't imagine how much worse it'll get with Celebi already existing.
>>
>>57100026
>I would imagine all gacha generals are about on par with one another.
Like I said, I'm starting to think that this is actually the dumbest one. This is also the only gacha thread I've ever been in that is not on /vg/. With each passing day, I find more reasons to believe this one is the dumbest. I don't know if that's because it's on /vp/ and not /vg/, or if it's due to the audience that Pokemon attracts, or if (hopefully) everyone here is just very underage. I don't know if it's the dumbest gacha thread of them all, but it's very possibly the dumbest gacha thread I've ever been in.

>>
>>57100035
Oh, I forgot another downside. You can't turn 3 blaine with the new ponyta either because blaine doesn't work on ponyta. So old Rapidash can do 70 damage on turn 3 while new cannot.

New Ponyta is unambiguously powercrept.
You can compare Seaking to, like, Liepard or some shit. Coinflips damage is balanced around its average.
Another point of comparison is Genetic Apex Mankey and Mythical Island Mankey. The latter does 5 more average damage to it has 10 less HP.
The new Ponyta does 25 average damage (5 more) with no other changes to its stats. It also can't waste Giovanni, like most coinflip attackers would.

3D models are soulless pieces of shit that are the equivalent of AI slop. In a few years, AI slop will do exactly what 3D shit-generated-graphics achieve - eliminating the need for real fucking artists. People will think it looks ugly at first and then just fucking get used to it as the tech improves because the average person is a fucking retard with zero tastes.

>B-bit anon, it takes artistic work to make 3D models!

To an extent, but you're still cheating once they make that one asset and then you can just whore it out by changing its fucking pose to make new images, like they're currently doing, instead of just hiring an actual fucking artist to illustrate a new image. Too expensive, too time consuming, just fucking flip the nigger and it's a new image.

AI will do the same shit. You have faggot 3D """"""artists"""""" to blame for this. Their """"""art"""""" is a means to hire less people and pa for less hours. The fuckers fell for it, hook line. and sinker. Their jobs will be gone too. Some intern will type "Moltres jerking off into a Volcano and BAM the got a new card artwork in 4 seconds.

Its not really about the damage they do when they're both set up, its where the energy goes in the early game. If you go first with new rapidash, you'll have ninetails ready on turn 9. With old rapidash, its turn 7. So old rapidash can do up to 70 damage on turn 3 and 120 by turn 7, while new rapidash does up to 40 damage turn 3, then assuming you commit to rapidash, its 70/130 damage on turns 5 and 7, reliant on coinflips, and then finally a non-coinflip 120 on turn 9.

So the question becomes, in what games do you need the 50% 130 on turn 5 that you wouldn't have won with the turn 3 70 and the turn 7 120 instead? To give a realistic example, its possible but unlikely that a Celebi will get a Serperior up by turn 6 (especially when Rapidash is up front doing a combined 180 possible damage by turn 5, which kills even with Erika.), at which point your Ninetails will be ready to one shot even if you lose your Rapidash.

Not him. I agree that the PTCGP 3D art is generally pretty terrible, but there is some 3D art that can be pretty good. I still remember disliking when Disney stopped being hand drawn and switched to purely 3D. Even "cartoons" are 3D slop now. I'd argue that current 3D (and theoretically AI 3D) is actually worse than current AI (drawn). The post-covid iteration of AI has generally been pretty good, as long as you have a human being editing the imperfections out. And it's only going to continue to get better. Whereas 3D slop has always been kinda bad, even when it still had soul.

>What AI produces isn't art, it's a product.
I disagree with this sentiment. "Soul" as a concept is disappearing even from things that are supposed to have "soul". A great artist is (currently) irreplaceable, but a good 90-95% of so-called "artists" could easily be replaced by AI, or they could become "AI artists" where they just prompt and then use what little skill they do possess to edit the imperfections. If you aren't already good, you should just become a prompter and learn to inpaint or otherwise edit. You're already too late, and AI is very good and will only become better.

I genuinely don't think the Celebi deck is good, I don't know what mechanism is supposed to make it better than Mewtwo. They're the exact same deck but Mewtwo has more HP, a new card that deck thins, and a second basic ex pokemon to lean on. Celebi's more like a bird, it's just a card you stick in another deck to make it better. But grass's biggest problem is Mewtwo and Charizard, stuff that oneshots you, and Mew deals with those better. So it's up in the air.

You're forgetting old rapidash can break through walls generally just as effectively by virtue of being able to do it earlier. That's the key here. I can't think of any real world examples where the coin flip on the new one will put you ahead in a way the old one can't, aside from the 3 specific ex cards that were mentioned (and in the case of mew ex it's a tremendous gamble). You have to think in terms of the total sum of damage you can do starting from turn 3 onward.

Either way, I will probably get around to making a 2nd alt for Mythical Island rerolling when I get the chance to act as a 2nd trading receptacle, although there's not much I want from the pack, mainly just a 2nd rainbow border Aero for the matching playset. Then I'll probably make a 3rd for the next expansion.

Also, in a game where breakpoints or so important, the 100 damage ignores potions or evo heals.
Since Mewtwo, Kanga, and Exeggutor are some of the strongest tanks, that extra damage really comes in handy.

I think Serperior is fine, but Celebi EX is the one that's too broken, having no ceiling and ramping 50 at a time was a bad call on battle design. And that's not just in terms of battling against it, but in terms of being able to make other Grass Pokemon down the road that can measure up/surpass it as an attacker. Why waste time on a Grass version of Charizard EX when Celebi gets going faster and with less bricking? Even when you don't assemble Serperior, Celebi can still steamroll.

>>57100317
currency + rarity/expansions restrictions. that way it also doubles as a way for new players to get a working deck fast enough when there end up being multiple expansions to pull from. since new players will need a surplus of cards to trade, there will still be incentive to spend money after you join late.

the mechanic has to exist in a way that makes it so someone that joins one year from now is willing to put enough money in the game to be a completionist vs someone who joined day 1. if trading doesn't allow for new accounts to catch up with an old account (account only for legacy expansions) at a reasonable pace, then they would be forcing new players to spend exponentially more than those who have been playing for more time.

had it been a "collecting" and not "trading" card game, they would likely lean more into giving out older pack/pack points for free/during events/campaigns to give new players a reasonable shot.
>>
>>57100378
Celebi can be one shot bro. Like the card is retarded sure, but it cant tank late game too well. Its a real flaw. Regardless i hate how its a damage dealer rather than a support card. Grass has so many stage 1/2 evos that only got shitter this update

Most likely, it'll work like Pokemon Go where there's some kind of trading currency that both players have to pay in order to trade. The cost of the trade is based on the highest card being traded. So if a player wants to trade a ponyta for a 2 star rarity card, they have to pay the full 2 star trading cost (which will probably take months to save up).

That fixes the two big issues: Players can't just make new accounts to reroll for rare cards, because they'd need to grind up trading currency in the throw-away. And people can't trade for everything they need in one day and undermine the collecting part of the game.

And Celebi can itself one-shot in the early game too. If it puts too much pressure on you before you get your Ninetales or whatever assembled (or you can't assemble the evo at all in time because it's an evo) then your counterplay despite existing is not always reliable.

>>57100402
Well the thing is Celebi only needs 2 energy to start attacking for big roll damage while Zapdos needs 3.
That's 2 energy for 100 ceiling then 3 energy for 150 ceiling
Zapdos is 20 then 20 then 200 ceiling, which is not only less but Celebi has actual potential to one-shot multiple times compared to what 20 offers

>>
>>57100345
No, you're ignoring the turns on which this damage happens. I already did this math here, assuming you go first: >>57100124
If we're not counting Blaine and assuming you land all heads, old rapidash's maximum total damage sum looks like this:

>turn 3: 40
>turn 5: 80
>turn 7: 170 (nintetails is ready here)

For new rapidash it looks like this (assume old ponyta):

>turn 3: 20
>turn 5: 120
>turn 7: 220
>turn 9: 310 (no coinflip needed, ninetails is ready)

So that looks like new rapidash is much better, right? Well the key here is turn 3. Watch what happens when you add Blaine. Since we were optimistic and assumed all heads, lets also assume you have a Blaine in hand for both turn 3 and 5/7:

Old
>turn 3: 70
>turn 5: 140
>turn 7: 230 (ninetails is ready)

New
>turn 3: 20 (Ponyta can't Blaine and new Rapidash isn't ready yet)
>turn 5: 150
>turn 7: 280

So the key here is turns 3 and 5. My point is this: new Rapidash becomes a strictly superior card past turn 7. But before that, it only beats the old one on turn 5 by 10 damage, and ONLY if you flip heads. In other words, old Rapidash is a better card purely for your first two turns. About your point with walls, you might notice that even old Rapidash can break through 100 HP walls. This can be true even with two potions since it can hit for up to 140 (you can argue they need to get lucky and have both cards in hand to make this happen, but the same is true for the opponent).

tl;dr old good for turns 3 and 5 new better for turns 7 onward. Its a bit early to say what this will look like in the new meta, so you can argue that turn 7 onward will be more important. But in my personal experience of playing Blaine, getting in that damage on turns 3 and 5 has won me games, including against Celebi.
>>
>>57100421
In Pokemon Go, there are three "cost tiers":
>common shit
>common shit that one of the two players doesn't own yet
>valueable Pokemon (shinies and legendaries)
You can only trade one for one and the cost is one of those three. Common shit is dirt cheap to trade, the second category is slightly expensive but not too big of a deal, and that last category sends the cost so out of control that it's basically unaffordable (they added a workaround where you can make it cheaper by sending gifts to a person for 30 days to increase your friend level, but it's a real grind to do it).

So I expect diamond cards will all be within the realm of cheap trading, but the cost will shoot up exponentially if there's an ex or 1 star involved. Then get into outright stupid territory if you're trying to trade full arts.

Dragonite lover here: the deck got nothing in the new expansion. I guess Druddigon is a slightly better tank than base-Mewtwo if you use him to stall. Everyone wants to play new shit

There’s some new stall card that dragonite looks like it could use. Are you using MewEX + Budding package or druddigon?

The answer, of course, depends on what you're looking for.
If you're looking for a basic, then oak, ball, slab.
If you're looking for a stage 1/2 then ball, oak, slab
If you're looking for a non-pokemon, then you should ball first then it doesn't matter if you oak or slab.
Pretty sure that's correct.

>it must be promo for promo
promos will probably be tradeable for shop tickets once enough time has passed. however it's not impossible you might be able to trade them given that most players have plenty of extras. their limited amount does require them to reappear in shops or for events to be rerun, but in my experience cards games tend to have shops for stuff like that.

>>57100470
I'm making a comparison strictly between old and new rapidash and trying to remove other variables in the interest of making an even comparison. If you add in new ponyta, you have to assume even more heads, which just increases the rng variables. Its both potentially an upside and a downside because while you can potentially get 20 extra damage for new Rapidash, its only if you land yet another heads, and you still can't Blaine on turn 3 anyway. So its possible to come close to the turn 3+5 damage that old rapidash has with it, but its just compounding rng on rng and becoming way less consistent. Old rapidash just has to draw Blaine and that's it.

Yeah the more I think, the harder I could see it being to attract players long-term. If they do some big package for newbies then established players will farm it, trade what they can, and abandon the accounts for free. So the only thing left is to disable trading on new accounts for a crazy amount of time. Probably why they don't have trading implemented yet, whatever trading scheme they had ready was abusable so they want players to collect shit on their own and disincentivize the bulk of players from smurfing to pull rares. So, rarity parity, probationary period for new accounts, trade gas, and only being able to trade cards with 3 or more in your collection. Gonna be rough.

>but still sees barely any play
Yeah I just explained why, how quickly they onboard vs their results
Look at Misty for contrast, she's not restricted to Stage 2 mons and can even lead to FTKs in the best case scenario, so many people run that combination because there's nothing to lose, which is like Celebi because it's your opener wall anyway
Marowak is a mon you have to work toward assembling and that places most of your commitment on its success

Alternatively they can make it cost a shit ton of Shinedust that goes up with rarity, while being super high for promo cards. Or they introduce some new currency for trading. In the long run they don't have to worry about punishing smurfs too much since promos are going to be relatively easy to find on the market. Only one I can see being a struggle is Lapras ex since it's unique.

>>
>>57100547
Old Amber sucks dick since it can't be pulled up via Pokeball, so I'd rely on a main attacker while Aero can be used to put pressure on your opponent by denying them evolutions.
Problem is by the time you even get Aero there's a good chance they evolved. Until we get a fossil researcher there's not much to guarantee an amber.

>>57100566
Its easy to clear out Mythical island if you saved around 400 hour glasses. Im probably gonna start using free packs on Mewtwo again after i get my 2nd celebi

>>
>>57100594
Paypig would be if you pulled 10 times 10 pack.
>>
>>57100594
They paypiggies buy max gold everyday not one little measly 5 dollar pack, that is the lowest of the low. Too poor to buy what you need, not disciplined enough to stay free to play.

>>57100528
actually this is vastly worse compared to stuff generated in Hailuo, and it's still getting better than that.
>>
>>57100594
>>10 packs
I'm pretty sure 10-pulls share a similar "seed" or "seed range" and should only be something that whales pull. I did a 10 pull on my alt and I got 3 FA Salandits and the only EX I got was Gyarados. I did ten 1-pulls on my main and I got every EX except for Pidgeot.

Played a couple more games with Chatot M2, dunno if it’s strictly better than new standard M2 but it’s very fun and definitely viable. I would say the biggest challenge with the deck is bench space, a lot of games are gonna demand a second Mewtwo or your Mew specifically as the last bench slot so it’s a call you will have to make early. All in all it’s just nice to actually play out games that otherwise end early due to bricks, M2 obviously has the reputation of being fat and stalling until the Garde arrives but I think the new meta demands Garde out much earlier.
>>
>>57100494
Nah, I'm just using my standby:
>Dragonite
>Jolteon

with 2x Nu Eevee.
Eevee sometimes gets me an early win, which is fun.
My best is 6 heads + Gio to OHKO Mew.

But why would I waste Blaine for at most 70 damage?
I just had a game right now where I NEEDED 130 damage to win.
I had a 50/50 I wouldn't have had if I used Old Rapidash.
Old Rapidash wouldn't have done much that game since I already had a strong lead and was revenge killed by Greninja.
I simply feel like that extra damage swings too much, because I wouldn't use Blaine on Old Dash unless it would secure a kill.

I thought he was bad too in comparison to cards like Blastoise EX but having now played him for a while ive really come around to him.
his strengths as a threat are not immediately apparent. first off he is a stage 1 pokemon rather than stage 2 to so he is much more consistently able to evolve and takes up less real estate in your deck, no chance of having 2 out of 3 pokemon from the same evolution line that don't connect (a basic and a stage 2, or stage 1 and 2 with no basic) this makes him a lot more consistent than stake 2 option.
the other big plus of being s stage 1 fully evolved pokemon is that he gets ups to 180 hp very fast so he cant get one shot at his vulnerable middle evolution like a lot of 3 pokemon Evo lines and can attack for a massive amount much faster than other option(with misty obviously.)

all this in mind gyrdos is actually pretty good and if it was comparable in raw power to stage 2 EX pokemon it would be too strong.
