Table 183 birdboy2000 defeats @Fou-Link 2-1, good games

I've hit a fair bit of Zoroark/Greninja tag team on ladder, built like the old darkrai decks otherwise, and it looks solid. That 30x reduces the amount of energy it needs to sweep the board to a reasonable level, and between Darkrai-GX's ability, elixir, and dark patch, it's not at all hard to...

I played a pretty terrible game 1 myself, and I think I could've played game 2 better (if nothing else, took wayyyy too long to recognize the double prized Lusamine, and probably could've been more careful with conserving my shuffle-draw) but I'm glad I was able to pounce. Good luck to you too...

Table 152 birdboy2000 defeats @Panzerolas 2-1 in a nailbiting series, well played.

This seems like terrible news, prices will explode on the secondary market. Remember how crazy prices got with Shaymin because Roaring Skies didn't get enough print runs? Geez I hope I can still afford to play...

Table 106, birdboy2000 defeats @Christopher Shehan 2-1 and had to topdeck a Cynthia from an empty hand in game 3 to do it. Good games!

Disappointing imo, wanted to test the bird trio deck at rotation but now I'll have to wait a bit longer...

Latios looks really interesting, problem is you pretty much have to keep power plant in play and decks that play it won't want to play down 4 targets to keep the chain going. (or will you? How safe is the bench gonna be this year?) Aerodactyl might be good, I like the ability, but fear it came...

Table 71, birdboy2000 defeats @Vom 2-0, rough matchup but you almost stole game 1. Good games.

That Dragonite is built to exploit triple boost. And it only gives up two prizes while one-shotting most tag teams and having access to Lance to set up. Usually "stage 2" and "five energy attacker" means it's binder fodder, but this card might surprise people. (or it might not, because that's...

Table 45, birdboy2000 defeats @Anselm Sim 2-1, good games. EDIT: fixing the ping

@FacepalmMaster beats birdboy2000 2-0

A lot of coaching is through video chat and stuff anyway AFAIK, 'cause it's a global game and people wanting to improve don't necessarily live anywhere near world-class players who offer coaching. Never done it personally though. And as for the original question, Vileplume absolutely walls the...

I'm seriously gonna miss these tournaments and would play in them even without prize support, TCGO doesn't have anything else like them. :( That said Did you read this entire post, including all the new prize information, the info about international prize winners, and all the other...

That ability on mewtwo/mew gives me an excuse to keep playing pidgeot-EX, 270 HP mirror move time. Interesting toolbox potential in general, only fear is all the ability lock in expanded these days but I guess that's what field blowers and/or stealthy hood are for.

Dropping.

@PokeMedic Still haven't heard back from my opponent. Willing to play @Kyle James if he shows up and it's not too late, but... can't report what wasn't played.

I don't like Jessie & James. It's not quite as broken as delinquent, but I don't want to start expanded games with 2 card hands, especially with peeking red card around to make sure the 2 cards aren't any good.

As a stall player, Oranguru's definitely a pain to deal with, but not an unbeatable one. Off the top of my head, Xurkitree can put part of the combo in the opponent's prizes, Faba can often run it out of energy (as most Oranguru decks only play special, and play low counts), and Vileplume...

I'm not sure if the support exists in Standard (or will by the time it comes out), if it does I definitely want to use it. In expanded it does (off the top of my head, Ho-oh-EX/Ninja Boy and Kiawe/Smeargle), the question is whether you can stream them effectively and either handle/outrun...
