Right, If I'm not mistaken there are 5 Nationals left. US Nationals and Swiss which I'm not sure about the date.And UK Nationals on 7th of June and Malaysian and Dutch Nationals on the 31st of May. These will be the first Nationals to have MD played. That means a metagame change, What decks do you expect to win Nationals or maybe just a lot of these decks being played?
 
Garchomp Lv.X is a great card but only ever will be a tech. I'm almost certain Plox will win Nationals, in the UK there are no T2 Banette decks so its almost certain.
 
I'd expect some Empoleon/Glaceon decks, because a lot of people would be thinking to counter Magmortar decks that invariably show up.
 
I think the new meta-game will be PLOX, Eeveelutions and Emp/Omy variants. Mag will be killed by all the new water types in MD.
 
Dutch Nationals on 31 May. We are a few hours after Malaysia.

I think that from looking at Holland and Malaysia, the UK and US can see what's doing well and base their decks on that.
 
Right, Another Nationals I forgot about. Someone make a report Lol. I wanna find out whats been used. But it doesn't always mean the same Metagames for the same countries. In the UK at the moment there are about 10 people who have a chance. Farres who did Great in Juniors at Worlds last year is now in Seniors (Oh Great) hopefully he'll play something counter able. The rest should be playing G+G. So PLOX should do well and hopefully I can get too Worlds.
 
don ´t forget the german nationals at 31th may

i think here is G&G , garchomp , plox and the eeveeloutions are meta , maybe magmortar

but i don´t think that the last two are very much there
 
Yes, we malaysians have the worst luck eva. Garchomp, Empoleon, Eeveelutions will see play. I'm not surprised if I do see G&G/Mag.
 
Lol, How many have I missed out:rolleyes:? Yeah so I'd expect the same Metagame as Malaysia.
 
North American Nationals are the last week of june. That would be EST time in Ohio.

Right here in North America, the metagame will be:

PLOX, Magmortar, Eeveelutions, Gardelade, Empoleon, and Flygon ex delta.

My deck counters all of those (Hey, if SOM can be secret, lol, so can I :D)

But, yeah, PLOX and Magmortar are worldwide metagame.
 
in also think that for the uk gg,plox,mag, empo varients and eeveelutions but does any one think its a good idea to play eeveelutions? or will it be a dud due to the pther decks being played or does it have a chance

That would be US Nationals are the last week of June. Canadian Nationals are on the following weekend (July 5th). We will "benefit" from the deluge of tourney reports that will probably switch up our metagame.
