1650, pocket is fun but its hard to play ranked willingly after the first 2 weeks. It feels like the meta is so optimized to the point where you can’t brew anymore. Suicune is a filter like none other, it punishes shitdecks for placing mons on the bench lol. Even giratina darkrai can get slapped around by a silly gyarados or meow build. It feels like they powercreep the game in fucked up ways, instead of introducing new powerful playstyles they give existing decks more broken tools. The last set pissed me off, suicune was the only great new ex. Raikou is average and the rest sucked.

>>58270244
suicune is just flat out bad game design and in any real card game would be banned/errata'd asap
combined with greninja it's unbelievably oppressive and has a significantly favored matchup into basically everything but 16t/17t basic ex slop like darktina and guzzlord

>>58270297
Yea, I don't know what the fuck they were thinking. Greninja is already powerful enough in literally decks that don't run water energy, and then they just go

>Hey, know what'd be a cool idea? If we gave Greninja a synergy that punishes the opponent for having more than 1 mon on the field, that way they can just focus down the single mon and are shit out of luck if they have a the wrong mon on their first hand.

Grinding pack points for shit I want is better for me than opening some shit pack full of mons I don't give a shit about. I didn't open a single booster of a set between STS and WSS and now I've nearly got enough points to buy the 2 FA trainers I want from STS. Then when I hit that I'm going to start grinding WSS points for a while.

Maybe a card restriction for the next month to shake the meta without adding a new set or something would be good

You should be able to turn 10 1*s into 5 pack points or something to make them less shitty and useless

>>58270942
How about new ranked leagues with restrictions like no EX or only 1-3 diamond cards, or only cards of x and x type to shake things up a little? How about normal shinies being allowed in wp? How about they stop fucking bloating new packs with lazy shinies? How about no more shinies in god packs? How about speeding up animations for abilities and item triggers in ranked since if you're playing ranked it is assumed you know what a rocky helmet does? How about allowing promo and 2 star trades? How about removing trade stamina or making it build up faster? How about more event types beyond the free wp and the solo matches, especially after they killed pvp events? How about higher effort crown cards instead of them just being 2* cards with a swirly gold background? How about no more retarded crown cards like Mantyke and eevee bag?
Are these enough for you or do they all count as "give me free rare shit", which is the only non-argument your shill ass seems to have?

>>58271369
>How about new ranked leagues with restrictions like no EX or only 1-3 diamond cards,
Whales chasing after rare cards is their monetization model, why would they promote a mode where you can't use rare cards?

>How about normal shinies being allowed in wp? How about they stop fucking bloating new packs with lazy shinies? How about no more shinies in god packs?

Sensible requests, and I see Dena going this direction soon

>How about allowing promo and 2 star trades? How about removing trade stamina or making it build up faster?
See point 1. Bad ideas, economically speaking

>>58271417
I never said the pvp modes had to exclude one another. You could easily have normal league and a rotating one, with rank rewards shared between both so both whales and normal players get to have their fun and you don't kill the game for one in favor of the other.
>your feelings
It's not about feelings, it's about a visible lack of effort on their part, which is objectively true regardless of wether whales continue to spend or not.

>>58271453
Doesn't matter if the PvP modes share the same ladder rewards, if there's an official low rarity ladder then some of the people who would spend money to get meta EX mons to climb ranked will now not do that. It reduces income, so they wouldn't do it

>lack of effort
Effort does not determine the rarity of a card. Some 1D cards are more high effort than some 1*s. If you don't like some (many? most?) rare cards then that's great, you will never roll most of them because they're rare cards

Can't attack bench. Greninja honestly would have been much better balanced if it could only attack active like Crobat. But DeNA is retarded. If Greninja only attacked active you wouldn't see it nearly as much as you do now, though it'd still be good. Crobat also requires Arceus to use its ability while Greninja has no reliance on anything.

Yet another wonder pick event where I miss the cards because the stupid fucking event just won't spawn.

Managed to get two Miltanks and three Phanphys from regular wonderpicks. Also Rainbow Flareon and Entei. I got incredibly lucky with wonderpicks this week - probably means I won't get anything good for months to come.

Delta species will be included in the gen 3 booster packs

just switch to a basic ex deck bwo

Will the next pack be something random like Shining Revelries and Eevee Grove? If so, my guess is that it will be a dragon focused pack that has trainers like Clair and Lance, since the previous Johto packs had barely any dragon type cards

>>58272096
2 is a coincidence, 3 is a pattern.

They're not going to release dragon support unless it's paired with a dragon type legendary
It will be the mini-expansion, featuring Mega Fug, after the gen 3 main set

>>58272115
Eevee Grove didn't have a legendary

>pull my 2 daily packs
>entei ex and raikou ex back to back, giving me a playset of both
i know raikou is pretty good right now, but are there any entei brews?

>>58272135
There is no legendary Eevee, and Eevee can carry an expansion alone
There are plenty of legendary dragons, it's one of the most common legendary types

>>58272141
no entei is pretty bad. Flareon is the only good fire type card right now and you arent running it with entei. 120 damage for 4 energy isnt good, Guzzlord does everything entei does but better except for not having the draw ability (you're getting red card'd next turn anyways)

>>58271503
honestly, darktina is fine. it's good because it's consistent, not because it's oppressive and stops you from playing the game like suicune greninja. the top deck being medium strength/perfect consistency is really healthy for a game, and i'm actually sad suicune greninja is dethroning it since that deck bullies meme decks super hard.

Ah yes, the deck that punishes you for attacking, stalling, not ramping up fast enough, not opening with a good hand and not having a nuke ready by turn 5 is not oppressive, lmao. Just because newer decks are even more oppressive does not mean darktina is suddenly fine.

>>58272358
what kinds of decks actually can't handle darktina? it can lose to both early aggro busting through the frontline and to building a fat attacker on the bench that can oneshot tina/darkrai and stomach the revenge hit. pretty much any well-constructed deck has a line.

>>58272487
Every other card game has interaction during the opponent's turn. Losing momentum and the game because you didn't use every single one of your options to prepare your opponent's one reversal is a pain you never forget and builds habit.

So yes I will activate Red Card, Beast Wall and Red before I attack with Celesteela for game. Nothing could go wrong.

You will win against electric decks, it’s playable but loses automatically to meta decks kinda. The issue is the
>this attack does more damage if you have 2 more energy attached
These effects are not good enough, they need to increment damage. Donphan should do 80 if you attach 2 energy, then 110 if you attach 3. Blastoise had the same issue, its just stuck doing 100 unless you get 5. No reward for getting 4 energy on it.

Just don’t put any cards on the bench, bro.

>>58272879
Is a better garchomp, your pair it up with STS lucario for extra damage or/and use a memory light to use SS phanpy's flail at low HP.

>>58272910
Suicune still does 60, which is workable.

>>58272910
People still not main decking Guzma is retarded

Is there any way to make SR Lucario good in the current meta? The only way to ramp is with Passimian, which is no good at all for Lucario's damage.

>>58272942
Use with dugtrio and build it up on the back

>>58272879
I tried a gimmick deck with the energy passing Swanna to get it immediately online but it was brick city

>>58272852
No, you're guaranteed to get 3 commons

Take the Mankey Will pill

>>58272529
That's not the case. If you had multiple ways to win the game, then showing the first one would win you the game and you wouldn't be able to show the others (although having multiple ways to lethal at once is a really good feel). It's essentially showing how many cards you had that had no impact on you winning or losing the game.

>just got a second FA Merchant
Now I'm really hoping 2* trades become a thing in the future because I don't think I'll use her anytime soon.

>>58272852
Yes, if it's a god pack

>>58272910
suisisters...

Is Raikou workable? I just got a second 4d after getting a rainbow version the other day. The game is trying to tell me something.

>>58273466
I've seen him in a few decks but rarely as the main ex.
He could work with zeraora and oricorio but it lacks damage. Maybe Magnezone can work, but the team really needs a heavy hitter.

>>58273506
Game8 lists a Magnezone deck as the "best" one, but setting up a bench in this climate seems risky.

you can easily get to MB with this. it's fast and consistent, and does great against the water faggot

>>58273547
I don't think I ever got the SR Pikachu, sadly. I don't have the ex fodder to trade for it, either.

>>58273547
>>58273566
Never mind, I have exactly 1. I'll try this deck out.

>>58273547
I tried this deck and bricked first game against a Krookodile deck.

>>58273547
This deck blows, you lied to me.

Another day, another promo miltank and still no phanpy

>>58273508
Really depends on your deck imo.
I run flareon ex + magby and I can get away with setting up eevee while magby is on the active spot.
I think it's possible to do the same with any team that has a baby pokemon to tank and give up the first point but I cannot confirm it aside of my own deck.

>>58273650
And here I have Phanpy but no Miltank...

>>58273579
>>58273600
>>58273634
That deck is fucking shit do not even try it. In my climb to MB the only raikou deck I saw consistently was Raikou/Magnezone, with your choice of Zeraora, Oricorio, Luxray or even Pichu if you want to gamble. 2 cords, 2 energy transfers, 2 balls, 2 Oaks, Cyrus to fish out faggot frogs and the rest is up to preference. If you wanna be sneaky you can even slip in a rare candy for a surprise magnezone hit, since most people do not account for that.

>people still playing magcargo
as if the game wasn't already total rng these psycho faggots just want nothing more than to high roll with no brainpower or decision making whatsoever. get fucked loser

>30 hp bird
>30 hp magnazone
>Opponent has fully loaded Greninja, Suicune, 40 hp Gira and another Gira with Cape on 20hp
>Cyrus up the bench Gira with 40hp
>Opponent has 2 points, I have zero
>Don't attack
>get chip damage, will lose next turn
>draw Guzma, take the point, ko for game
Ez

>>58275174
You rarely get to see his whole deck while playing, especially if the other guy is unlucky.

There has GOT to fucking be poke-power and/or bench defense next set. Holy fuck i hate greninja and everyone who plays him. Sucks the fucking fun out of any god damn match. I know yall need your free ranked packs but you brain dead girtinia frog bitches are the the worst. Its weird how bad some of yall need to run meta

>>58275189
I like to remind larpers that 90+% of their games are already decided by matchup and draw order, keeps their ego in check
Also I'm in great ball and even there everyone plays sweaty meta decks so it's good fun to ruin their games with a meme deck
Occasionally I face a brew and I feel a bit bad if I win but it's one every 20 games at most

do you still go down to ultra if you fuck around in master ball?

started using memes and im close to dropping lmao

>>58275954
Pretty sure you don't drop from master but do not quote me on it. Unless you mean in between seasons, because yes you will drop.

>>58275954
I'm not sure, but I once heard a guy say
>Pretty sure you don't drop from master but do not quote me on it. Unless you mean in between seasons, because yes you will drop.

>>58272678
Dude this deck is so funny. Thanks for the brew

What are the top decks right now? Anybody been playing a lot at Ultra rank, Ive been holding my rank but thinking about trying to grind some more.

>>58275954
I don't know, I barely got my dumb ass back to Ultraball and I've been too scared to keep playing but I don't think there is any decay at that rank at least.

>>58276179
Suicune/ninja, Sylveon/Espeon and Darktina. I ran buzzwhole and did pretty well against them, some also suggest Raikou/Magnezone because Suikune is by far the worst of the top decks and the most prevalent.

>>58272678
>>58276143
I've been playing for fun with a variation of this deck. You can use Will and Memory Light with Chancy and also run Blissy EX. That gives you options to evolve and then roll your Scrunch with 150 or 180 hp and stack your energy up. Also you could try running Skitty and Delcatty instead of baby pokemon which is a 90hp 1 mana deal 30 damage plus add a normal energy to your benched pokemon. Super fun, but I've had little success actually winning games so far.

>>58276195
Yeah that's what I was facing a bunch of. Fucking Suicune Giratina ninja deck fags. I have a bunch of answers for doing 140 damage to that absolute shit card but whenever I run a counter deck I end up against something completely different that counters me lol

No, I fucked around with memes and when your rank hits the MB minimum it just stops dropping.

It is. sometimes I see others in MB doing memedecks too. The other day I matched up against someone using Tentacruel + Nihilego with Will support. And someone using Malamar + Deceduleye EX. Pretty fun brews people fuck around with in low MB. It's probably the best meta cause the people using those brews know how to actually pilot them and experiment, so sometimes you get caught by surprise.

>>58276414
That's cool, I've been getting pissed because I'm trying to play fun decks on Beginner and everybody is running fucking Darktina and shit at Beginner unranked like a bunch of assholes.

>>58276420
I play one game of PVP in Pokeball to ensure I qualify to get my 20-30 hourglasses at the end of each season and that's it (didn't bother playing even one ranked game once and the game didn't give me anything at the end of that season, despite me still maintaining the rank)
I should probably try to get up to GB or even UB at least assuming they don't drop my rank each month for more hourglasses, but I'm that uninterested in playing against other people in this game

As a newb i seem to be having tremendous luck with the Charizard apex pack
Opened 3 yesterday, got like 2 or 3 EX cards

Opened a few more and got Machamp and Pikachu EX

>>58276442
I was lucky because as soon as I started this game a couple seasons ago I got 2 Giratina ex and 2 Mewtwo EX then I invented the Celebi EX Serperior ramp deck and got to high ultra my very first season, so now I'm just maintaining Ultra for the what 70 hourglasses each season for minimal effort.

>>58276464
I think they must boost the pull rate of Pikachu EX cards because as soon as I started I pulled a million of them too. That's not even the good one really, the one that does 150 damage for 3 energy is the good one.

>>58276359
So what's the gameplan here besides praying you play second, start with a baby and get destiny rare candy dragonite by turn 4?

>>58276359
I remember using dragonite in TCGO and it was pretty good but i feel like it would suck in this game's meta

>He had Cyrus

This meta is dogshit desu. Literally just so they have Cyrus and I get fucked with no counter play or they don't.

>>58276503
You wouldnt wanna go second, you'd wanna go first so you can start ramping your energy sooner. Then you build up your Dragonite or Dragonite EX. Pretty simple really.

>>58276513
Last season the best possible deck was a Dragonite EX deck with a fossil so you could smash 180 damage without cooldown.
