(1) All 'Clash at the Summit' Scans and Translations! [7/6]

I don't see what is so great about the Lithograph. Anyone who plays their deck knows what is in the prizes when they use some form of search card and cycle through their deck. Sure it combos well with RR Rotom but you can't search out the lithograph. Normally the only time you would use Azelf is when you need something crucial on the fly that you know is prized but Lithograph + Rotom requires both of them in hand to work. When Azelf is gone im sure it will be a decent replacement though.

The twins are most likely going to be a staple in every deck it is the only card I really like in this expansion.

This is IMO by far the best legend set(not sure on LL since there's a rumor saying lost world willl be banned...)

I'd love to hear your source for this rumor. We havn't had a card banned since the days of WotC, and TPCi won't start now. It's just another win condition that you have to manage to make sure your opponent doesn't win. There are plenty of ways around it and plenty of ways to beat it. It doesn't unbalance the game, just adds another aspect you need to keep track of.
 
YES!!!!! A NEW PSYDUCK!!!!! And to make it better, this set's Golduck is actually playable! Other than that this set has a ton of really interesting cards that can change the game.

Black Belt= DONK!
 
I don't think the new Golduck is all that great, it reminds me too much of Lanturn Prime which see's little to no play at all in the current meta especially next. BlastiGatr needs to be more focused on countering against Glaceon Lv. X and Vileplume If it wants to succeed.

It still looks like Magnezone Prime is the best draw engine we have for next season given that the Porygon line's didn't really offer much at all. I can see the new Ditto being annoying limiting bench space especially combined with Palkia G Lv. X.

Other than that Rescue Energy is handy but that's about it, another mediocre expansion that could've been better. Black Belt could see play but in the end it's as situational as Upper Energy from Rising Rivals and the only reason why that doesn't see play is because of Double Colorless.
 
There are so many unplayable cards in this set that it isn't funny. The only ones I can see being played are Rescue Energy, Ditto, Yanmega Prime(ehh, lightning weakness kills it and Gyarados can do better), Machamp and its Prime, Bronzong(somewhat), Junk Arm, Black Belt, Twins, and the first 2 LEGENDs.
 
A lot of weird artwork in this set (Nidoking with cute eyes?), but a lot of awesome artwork in this set. Excluding the LEGENDs, I think Electivire has the coolest artwork in this set. It's just too awesome. :0 Other cards with good artwork are Lunatone, Solrock, Marowak, and all of the Primes.

also said that wrong, it's not lost world that's the problem it's hunter..
Also Yanmega>Gyarados because it doesn't have to discard anything, w/ yanmega you can donk w/ it...
 
The set is AMAZING!! I alreadyu have 5 billion combos for it, but my favorite one so far has to be Nidoking/Nidoqueen RR. With 2 nidowueen out plus expert belt you have 220HP AND HEALING!!! Hopefully, this will actually be the american set, these cards are amazing

I don't see anything about a rumor of any card being banned in that thread, just a bunch of people complaining about cards they don't like. Why is Hunter a problem? It opens tons of possibilities. It also gives you the chance to reuse Uxies and pick other coming into play powers up.

Hunter makes you put pokemon in your hand which Gengar can lost zone. Thats why its broken. The only thing you can do about it is not have a bench.
 
Wow a lot of cards in the set. from a glance they look awesome. I will have to get a better check when I have more time. Hopefully tonight.:)
 
Lunatone could be a substitute for ERl. He doesn't have as much HP, his attacks aren't as good, and he does get KO'ed, but 120 to the bench is mean. Running Manetric forces only two prizes on you, unless Bench Shield happens.

So they get one pokemon, and then you turn around and KO their Gengar. I'm really not seeing an issue here, the Gengar doesn't do any damage to you, takes no prizes, and works towards one win condition. So instead of picking up a Stage 2, pick up the Uxie/Azelf that's sitting on your bench and they can only get 1 card. All it takes is some smart play on your part.
 
Wow. I also like the Victreebel in this set. It's pretty nice with a two-Energy attack, and it makes Retreating much more difficult. Celebi's gonna be a big hit, even with its basic form, as a decent starter with Future Sight. Electivire PWNs. Electric Shoot kicks butt.

One card is still one card lost zoned. And that assumes that you have no other pokemon in your hand. Which isn't likely most of the time. Its like getting a knock out every turn. Thats pretty hard to catch up with.
 
especially w/ a lot of people will be forced to run pokeheavy now as w/ no rosey collector comes into a role as a main supporter and most will want to run communication to upgrade their pokes which means several in your hand....
