Rundown of the playable pokemon IMO Freeze Bolt Vileplume - not convinced on this one since most stuff already gets OHKOed as it is but I could see a 6 corners variant made with weaker pokemon with cheap attack costs Jellicent - not sure how much space you could devote to this guy in a deck...

Celebi EX! <3 Anyways, this set is somewhat of a letdown for me, but I guess after how great Dragon Blade/Dragon Blast was everything looks sorta meh in comparison. Lots of great looking cards, but not many new playable pokemon. There's nothing in this set that is the new Darkrai, Mewtwo...

Really not a fan of how thick the Aggron line is. I would go with 3-2-3 just to optimize your chance of starting with a durant. I know you run a high switch count but you don't want to have to blow those on just switching into your preferred starter on your first turn. Another reason I like the...

Sweeeet, finally we get Lugia (who is hopefully not a water type). Yea I just hope it's not a Team Plasma's Lugia or anything like that. I just want a straight up normal Lugia or EX version.

I'm actually really excited for the evolution lines in this set. Lots of old favorites :) But 130 hp is pretty overkill for Scizor though. 110 seems much more appropriate.

Did you not just read the post you quoted? Apparently the good hydreigon/garchomp won't be in the theme decks. Says so on the main page now as well.

The holos are never holo in these official promo shots. But I am actually extremely concerned over whether they will be holo in the actual set. Zoroark (who was supposed to be holo) appeared in the theme deck and as a result was nonholo in the set too. :/ This stuff wouldn't bother me so much...

I'm sure I'm probably forgetting some, but in no particular order: Garchomp/Altaria Hydreigon/Darkrai Eelektrik variants Darkrai variants Accelgor/Gothitelle Empoleon/Terrakion Ninetails/Amoongus Ho-Oh EX variants And hopefully some sort of awesome rogue shedinja decks. Really want...

Blaziken is a perfect example of how just the very existence of EXes makes otherwise solid cards unplayable (Lucario NXD, and Conkeldurr NVI are also on this list for me). Yes you could pair him with emboar but that's just going to take too long to get rolling. If you really want to do 130, just...

RE: (2) More B2W2 Info, Crystal Wall/Crystal Edge Translations + Muskedeer Promos [6/15] These musketeer trio promos are gorgeous. I hope their abilities make them playable too. I'm pretty indifferent towards the Ace Spec cards. Black/White Kyurem aren't very playable to begin with and...

300 HP?! *sigh* I really don't like where the game is going. I'm sure these new tools will have some drawbacks to leverage the insane damage and HP boost, but I just don't think we should ever for any reason have Pokemon above 200HP (and even that amount should only be reserved for Wailord).

I'd be able to live with the fact that they are nonholo if the theme deck version at least gave us version with the normal "line" holo pattern instead of that ugly/inferior cracked glass one. I was stoked when they dropped the Reshi/Zekrom theme decks since they actually did the holo pattern...

I HATE YOU TPCI! Quit taking all of these gorgeous Japanese holos and making them non-holos for our set. It makes me totally irate. I'm glad that we have actually been getting good cards in our theme decks, but I don't want there at the expense of how they look. Unless they get rid of that ugly...

Ugh I'm sick of TPCi putting us so far behind Japan. They should just give us DS, DB/DB, and the starter deck cards all in one set to catch us up a bit

It really annoys me when they give such awesome Pokemon like Scyther and Electabuzz such lame cookie cutter attacks that are more appropriate for a 50hp starter pokemon.

I just really want to see the set list because I suspect TPCI cut some cards since Dragon Selection was 18 new cards, Dragon Blade/Dragon Blast was 106 (not counting secret rares), then the DB/DB theme decks also had 18 new cards which would be 142. We haven't had a set that large since I think...

Where is Shizurow? The art on the EXes from Dragon Blade/Blast and now these kyurem is god awful.

Blaziken is a perfect example of how just the existence of EXes make a lot of otherwise good cards not-so-good. Yes the magic number is 130, but the only deck that still really runs anything with the magic number is ZekEels. If you are determined to run the deck I would at least run Twins...

RE: BP EX's trade thread - W: Reverse holos, HP Energy | H: EXes, Full Arts, PTCGO codes) Nah they're just regular ones. And I was gonna reply to your earlier post but I'm actually waiting to hear back on another trade on Pokegym for all of the reverses on my list. If the guy doesn't get back...
