I am loving the Hisuian Zoroark attacks; all of them. The Stage 1 has a free version of Doom News Absol and can get back more resources in a pinch. The V has a free Strafe attack and a decent secondary attack. The VStar is ok then I realized that Gengar's Ability is technically not once per...

Origin Palkia VStar is a better Suicune V and will see immediate play in most Water decks for the VStar Ability alone. Rampardos looks like a fun Stage 2 deck. Hisuian Starters are all meh and may see niche play. Hisuian Samurott is the standout. Irida is Water Korrina. I am guessing the...

Any idea what the deck lists are in the starter decks outside of being similar to League Battle decks? Do you know someone online who showed off the lists? More importantly, if a player has 4 Zacian V in PTCGO and migrate their account to PTCGL, will they get extra credits from the starter...

Reminder: Send complaints to PTCi. We have the right to complain about this. It is an issue that both sides aren't seeing eye-to-eye on and deserves an actual discussion. I understand that the conversation was going off the rails but, it is one of those topics that gets everyone heated. We will...

We are back to more XY-era stuff. We got Lysandre/Supporter Gust, type specific Special Energies, and (nerfed) VS Seeker again. I got back into the game around this time so it is nice to see everything sort of comeback. Toxtricity VMAX is super solid and combo well with the new Garb and SSH...

Clever idea. Most decks can't one-shot Gyarados-GX anyway, so Shining Celebi + Flail is super powerful. In either case, Gyarados needs a strong partner to stall while it gets set up on the bench. Maybe Ninetales? Palkia-EX? Energy disruption? This combo, while awesome, back fires if they attack...

I have used a similar version in Expanded, actually. It had Max Elixir and a 1-1 line of Carbink BREAK. It was more of a fun variant than a competitive build. Landorus single-handedly won me games when I have Regirocks down. On the Max Elixir to Carbink BREAK, I will try that version at some...

These Full-Arts look amazing! Buzzwole is the best one with the Alolan Exeggutor as a close-second. The Gold Energy reprints are the most surprising part of this reveal.

Cool idea and I wish the set was out in English to properly test this idea. Most of the changes will be theory based. Right off the bat, I would flip the Koko and DCE counts if you plan on using Koko as your main spreader while, at the same time, hit DCE when you need it. -1 Tapu Koko +1 DCE...

Zygarde looks amazing and Serviper is the best prerelease kit card. For prerelease strategy, hope to pull a Kiawe and a high-damage Colorless/Fire energy attacker.

I would check out the 1st place Japanese deck list for a solid starting point: http://thecharizardlounge.com/2017/07/03/2017-japan-championship-results-and-decklists/ If you heard about Gallade/Octillery cropping up, it is akin to that with a Gardevoir focus. For the possible BKT-on rotation...

Is there a strong one Energy and/or DCE attack on a Metal Pokemon besides Bisharp (STS) for BKT-on? With Alolan Ninetails and the upcoming Gardevoir-GX, it is good to have options.

In higher-levels of play, it is a great meta call when everyone is running Fighting and Psychic weak Pokemon, not so much when high HP Stage 1s and Stage 2 GXs. It auto-loses to any Ninetails build and Metagross because of their extreme bulk, recovery, and minimal KO investment. Combined with...

Dragons needs an accelerator that is specific to its own type without a specific Energy requirement. A Reshiram without the Fire Energy requirement or a Vikavolt-esque effect only for Dragons would be a good start without DDE reprint. While something like Dragon Wish Dragonair could alleviate...
