mesprit

Is a really good card if you time it right. I mean stopping powers for 1 turn is devastating in any situation (except the no pokepower deck matchup wich is rare in my division /masters/) but when timed to shut down your opponent from doing specific function it can win you the game. for instance if your opponent has 1-3 cards in hand you drop mesprit so they cant cosmin power/set up. the go draw play energy supporter and attack leaving them with 0-2 cards in hand drop your second mesprit and you kill there next turn. i wouldnt teck thi cards in every deck but a few i suggest is control kingdra and mach tech and regigigas and rampardos.
palkia lv.x is another card that will be staged in as many of my decks as i can function in. palkia sets up an ohko and can set up the use of a warp point/switch. if you can read the warp point in your opponents hand restructure into something to force it out because warp points win games all day.
if you agree or disagree i would like to know i just wondered how many people thought the same thing.or who thought it was bad.

I think mispirit is only worth it in a power lock deck. Otherwise they tend to clog up your bench with cards that aren't necessary. usually blocking for one turn doesn't have that much of an effect.

If you don't play it in a Gengar or Gigas deck, you shouldn't be playing those decks.

Mesperit is darn useful under nice circumstances, but not that many decks have the leisure to place them in their decks and benches without a good way to get rid of them.

i can see that being a problem especially with more and more players replacing there claydol engine with uxie. the only thing is i play expecting to use them so im always counting in that bench space.besides the last thing people do in many situations is load up therre bench because of the threats of dusknoir dp tech or the new threat palkia g lv.x.

This card is actually amazing IMO. Alot of decks can take advantage of its uses. It found its way into a lot of competitive decks I saw during City Champs. I saw it in Kingdra, Regigigas, Dusknoir, Gengar, AMU (of course). Its really an awesome card in the current format if timed right. And when combined with SSU it can be absolutely devastating when used over and over again.

Its great early game as it can stop your opponents from using an early Claydol or even Uxie Set Ups. Its great against Regigigas decks, as it can allow you to stop Regi and Palkia from using their powers. It will be useful against Skuntank G.

Mesprit = 2 thumbs up
