In what format has Rain Dance been unbalanced in? Like genuine question, I can't think of a single time it has been, other than maybe XY purely because of Archie's Ace in the Hole. I won't deny that Infernape's ability is more interesting. But I'm curious as to how you would define unbalanced.

Has the rebranding on this been particularly slow? I've seen people saying this for years but as of 5~6 months ago there were still at least a few EB Games along the west coast. Maybe the rebranding has finished since I've been there, I don't know.

Do you really think they would send dozens of free etbs to every single league? Either way, it says in the article...

Good product. I still get the exclusive ex I want without paying extra for a jumbo card that I'll never use and I don't even really want to keep. I hope they keep making these

Shinxed3 -> ShinxieDim

I'm still disappointed they did this. If Fusion Strike had just been Fusion Arts + the Inteleon/Gengar decks + leftover cards from the Eevee/Rayquaza/Duraludon expansions, it would have been genuinely excellent

From my experiences young kids (like ages 6-8) like coin flips. It's like its own little game and surprising the other player with a bunch of damage is fun. When i was that age I liked Beedrill cards a lot for that reason. On the other hand they tend to dislike searching and shuffling the deck...

Why are goofballs complaining that a magazine promo isn't competitive? what's the alternative? having a good card exclusive to a magazine? that would be awful. Imagine having to buy 4 copies of the same magazine to get a playset

I took a break for a month but I'm picking this back up again. Clay Burst is fully done now, and Future Flash will be completed shortly! when i feel like it

It does not, Walking Wake ex can hit Farigiraf ex under normal circumstances. Its ability causes it's attack to be unaffected by the "effect" of Farigiraf's ability.

This is a weird nitpick, but all the booster packs for the SV era so far feel very same-y. These boosters, Paldea Evolved, Paradox Rift and base Scarlet & Violet all blend together in my eyes. Just lots of red and purple/blue. Compared to say, the 2021 expansions, where Battle Styles, Chilling...

These are pretty good actually. If you have to use stock artwork then this is about as good as you're going to get

In principle, I agree, in practice, the types are not really any more balanced than they were before Fairy was axed

A 182 card set with a decently high number of good, and, more importantly, interesting cards is a win in my books. Good job card designers

Maybe I'm misunderstanding the points being made here, and maybe it boils down to differences in personal philosophy, but I don't understand the opposition to rare cards with limited prints. This is probably an unpopular take at the moment given the disastrous handling of a certain felt hat card...

There's some really nice art on these cards. I appreciate them not using stock art, even for very young players who literally could not care less. Ivysaur and Electrode are my favorites.

Looks real to me. The centering isn't great but there's nothing unusual about it, why do you suspect it might be fake? how did you get it?

Pretty disappointing that there isn't going to be an option to buy the board and accessories separately, because I honestly couldn't care less about the weird decks. I hope that they're at least relatively affordable secondhand because they do really look quite nice. Also that pricing is...
