A Place For Two Edition>I want to learn the game, where do I begin?Download PTCGL at https://tcg.pokemon.com/en-us/tcglThe game has a quick tutorial and a bunch of decent decks to get you started against other beginners or against the AI. Some of those decks are very close to meta too. You can also go to your local game store and see if people are playing Pokémon.>I know how to play, how do I make my own deck?You have a decent beginner's guide at https://www.justinbasil.com/guideThere's also the old /tcg/ guide at https://imgur.com/a/W4NkOu6After that, look up meta decks and try to reverse engineer them to see how things work.>Where to find meta decks?For big irl events, go to https://limitlesstcg.com/decksFor online events, go to https://play.limitlesstcg.com/decks?game=PTCGFor japanese events, go to https://pokecabook.com/archives/1417Previous thread: >>59280039Old /tcg/ pastebin: https://pastebin.com/Ge95YuMA
>>59298441First for /OUR/ QVEEN
Garchomp with Relicanth
Third for decent mon
Why would anyone waste their purple cummies on fucking chaos rising? Dude just buy celebrations then craft whatever you want.
>>59298467I remember when this card was revealed and I had to convince you retards that 230 for 1 was good.
hey bros, digifag here curious about the TCGhow bad is the deck diversity in the TCG? i heard before that it was quite good and that most decks are quite cheap, and honestly i dont care at all about the metahave a great weekend lads
>>59299229>how bad is the deck diversity in the TCG?Currently? Not the worst, in terms of playability. There are like four or five decks that can reasonably compete at the top level. The problem is that there's one WAY better than the others. For reference, this is the most recent Regionals.
>>59298474What's that good for?
>>59299296Lets you attack with Roserade if you need to.
>>59299303When would I want to do that?
nth for a spiky!
>>59299307Into anything with a grass weakness, single prize decks like festival lead, when you want to keep a one prize board, and when people try to retreat lock you.
>>59299337Thanks
Week 1 so this isn't going to be close to accurate a month from now thanks to new toy syndrome but there's an actual meta shakeup in Pitch Black, kind of.>Dragapult still bdif>Excadrill is actually strong>Ghost Veil is okay>Darkrai fucking sucks>Bastidon/fossil stadium is being put into some Dragapults, Excadrill, Lucario, and Metang>everything else fucking sucks as expected
>>59298631People wanting full arts I guess. You can open 100 packs and never get it though so it's a scamThey need to reduce the timer on crafting over-numbered cards. 6 months is retarded
>>59299376JP loves their new toy syndrome, they're not metafags like us. so I wouldn't care about statistics for the next few weeks. Remember mega starmie running the meta only to completely fall off once they went back to the old decks like dragapult
>>59299444Yeah, the main point is what's not being played (Darkrai).
>>59299229>>59299235One that's more consistent, but the others can - and have - won big events.
>>59299376There's no way ghost veil actually ends up being good.
>>59299457darkrai wouldn't show up on a meta chart anyway, it's a tech for dark decks, not a archtype
>>59299457It gets traded on so easy, and 3 of the big decks (zoro/fighting) are just immune to it lol. plus any with mist energy techs for zam. Actual joke card>>59299587Early list info on there would show it as a new archetype. Pretty sure they pull archetypes off this>https://pokecabook.com/archives/1417You don't see any darkrais in zoro there
>>59299501ghost veil isn't affected by anything pult uses to spread counters so it won't be terrible
>>59299376>Dragapult gets bodied by fairies
>>59299376Is Beedrill flopping over there?
>>59298441The most important card
>>59299817Stage2 spam is a pipedream or venusaur would run the meta
BDIF:> Ceruledge / Solrock> Dragalge / Dudunsparce> Cinncino / Metang> Dragapult / DudunsparceI will not elaborate.
Dudunsparce is such a hilarious card.
Beedrill is good
>>59299376lmao Darkrai
>>59300205My schizo theory is that a card is coming out in a future set to give him specifically a major boost
>>59299376>Everyone figured out to stop playing grass slop so Zoroark could try and out Pult.
Guys just throw 3 Dunsparce 3 Dundunsparce in every deck.
>Dudunsparce slop
>NOOOO YOU CAN'T DRAW THREE FOR FREE EVERY TURN THAT'S MY DRAKLOAK'S PRIVILEGED
Our guy
What's a meta list that doesn't run Meowth right now?
>>59300465Spend the $4 so you don't have to ask questions like this.
>>59300446don't judge me but this and squirrel plus arceus vstar and dragonite vstar with salvatore
>>59300473I use 3 in my slop box, just wondering if there is any deck not running Meowth aside from Chomp
>>59300476Anyone greedy enough trying to cut it. Only to then brick not getting any supporters and having no meowth to fetch them one. Every deck should realistically play 1. You can make the point for stage1 decks if you don't want to start with it and screw your prize map
>>59300446I miss him and the fuckass rodent

>Melbourne Cup
https://www.twitch.tv/oceaniatcg
What do I play to a best of 1 cup? What deck is least likely to fuck up?
>>59300735Pult because it's the most consistent and has the best MU spread across the board.
>>59300476Even Ceruledge, a deck that doesn't even run recover cards runs it.
>>59300738yeah, alright
>>59300474Fuck I miss Arceus Vstar so much
I saw a Metagross/Bastiodon deck on twitter that fucking attacks with Bastiodon which seems both brilliant and retarded.
>>59300735I won a bo1 cup with festival lead, mind you I dodged every dragapult in the room.
in theory: yesin practice: ..I need to git gud with it still
Just think about how many decks in the meta do not like to retreat or take more than 1 turn to set up.
How does this make you feel?
I will say it again. Goodra sucks massive cock. COCKDRA.
Wtf is a vstar? wtf is a vmax? wtf is a tag team? wtf is lv X? All I know is just normal evolutions and maybe EX/mega evolution.
>>59301439Previous generation gimmicks. Like the gimmick for gen9 is teras, and megas again
