The Peony Experience — Learning the New Way to Play Miraidon ex

[PMJ]

Miraidon ex has taken off in popularity big time since the 2024 season started in September. For every major tournament, Miraidon ex can be expected to be a Top 3 deck, so players must be ready to face off against it. Miraidon ex is notorious for its lackluster conversion rate, yet in each tournament, there are one or two lucky Miraidon ex players who spike a huge finish, and it ex has won multiple tournaments, almost always finishing with a Top 8. The deck is also infamous for being one of the least-complicated decks in the meta, and it gains a reputation of being a high-roll deck that relies on good luck from Electric Generator.

Let's wait and see, but the new tool that allows you to keep 3 energy in play when losing Iron Hands looks promising, as it allows Raichu to do a lot of damage after losing Hands. Also going for more Exp. Shares, and having more energies in deck to get better Generators can be the way to make Miraidon good post-rotation. The problem is that Charizard with the new tool looks like is gonna be BDIF, and that is not good for Miraidon.

Let's wait till Temporal Forces is fully revealed as well, it should include cards from Japanese February sets, right? Also going for more Exp.

The problem is that Charizard with the new tool looks like is gonna be BDIF, and that is not good for Miraidon.

I’m just gonna build a miraidon/regieleki, might not be the best but it sure doesn’t cost much.
