yes, they have an obligation to keep the team dedicated to whining under news posts about commons not being meta well-fed.

it's possible that some of the new artwork could also be artwork that didn't make the cut for sets proper / were made pending another artist's work being finished, and it's also entirely possible that some of this art could very well see the light of day on cards you can actually hold in your...

another 60 hp basic that does 20 damage for 1 energy with 1 retreat cost

megaton blower is extremely funny.

the hair or tail feathers are not "messed up" here so i don't really see what the big deal is. everything downstream of that specific incorrect observation is entirely unnecessary.

there is a difference between sincere and well-founded worry and hysteria, and the latter is far more prevalent in the space. i don't know how to put this other than to say that you are (pending a better explanation than "looks pretty weird") imagining every part of this. pidgeot looks exactly...

i hope you are able to recognize how unhinged it looks and also frankly how disrespectful it is to speculate on a picture with no actual signs of being generative ai like this. "that's not how i would have drawn pidgeot so it's ai?" ai hysteria really broke some peoples' brains big time.

"NFT" does not mean "tradeable item in a video game"

sadly seems like TCG pocket is probably going to be a dud (beyond the obvious "pokemon product will see some measure of success regardless of quality or merit" component that will prevent it from being an abject failure outright) given that there's no interesting gameplay to be found still...

would you care to explain yourself how checking top 7 is in your words "statistically better than looking at the bottom"? don't bother replying if it's going to be flailing instead of actually backing up the claim. it isn't really on everyone else to provide evidence of anything when you're...

"casual play" "in leagues" "meta decks" therefore "unplayable"

i don't think that you know what the words "casual" and "unplayable" mean.

theme decks aren't supposed to be competing evenly with constructed format decklists. that that does not happen is not a failing of the product, but the point. there is absolutely a ton of room for improvement in products like these, but the purpose of these products is that they are entry level...

unplayable? what, like, at a highly competitive level? what a pointless expectation to have of what is and has never been advertised as anything but an entry-level product.

over the years i have learned never to assume that no one likes something just because i don't like that thing. everything just tends to make more sense when one's outlook isn't entirely self-absorbed and you consider that other people have different points of view.

it's weird (or maybe promising) that they're using the older, actually good energy designs on the pack for this. maybe someone, somewhere, has realized that basic energy cards have looked absolutely terrible since sun and moon era ended.

and yet evidently not old enough to know how to edit your post if you want to add more to it instead of replying three times in a row just because you're frustrated about something.

nothing about this seems particularly offensive, so i don't see what the big deal is. especially given pokemon's level of prize support.

that Talonflame isn't bad. 220 for 2 or 200 for DTE with a condition that is quite often met even without outside interference would be one thing, but Gravity Stone fixes essentially everything else about it. between this and the recent Unfezant (along with the eventual Unfezant ex mentioned on...

in a game with a sideboard i think this would be a more open and shut discussion. my feeling is that as it is, it's bad, but it has its use cases. 130 for 2 energy that also loses that energy just doesn't seem like enough to go 2 for 1 against any evolved ex, even if you're getting it back...
