as a non pocket player, news items like this feels a bit misleading. my brain goes like "woahh, new sick artwork, wich set is it? .. damn you pocket@@"

[Yaginku]

Is there a deck that can beat expert level using Auto mode? Guaranteed pack is nice but the battle takes around 5 minutes :/

Any type of hyperaggressive deck is completely broken in Pocket. This is especially true against Venusaur, a very slow deck based on evolutions. Decks like Pikachu or Starmie should be easy enough for the bot to pilot.

Hooray, more RNG promos on top of RNG for the chance to even win a promo pack.

What do you mean?
Expert is guaranteed a pack and you have 2 weeks to find the rarest card with 12.66% chance. You will find it

2x Ponyta, 2x Rapidash, 2x Vulpix, 2x Ninetales, 2x Blaine, 2x Pokeball, 2x Prof Oak, 2x Sabrina, 2x Giovanni, 2x X Speed

It also gives you the achievement for not using rare cards

On the off-chance you're being serious, build a deck with no ex pokemon, and join a private match with NOEX as the password to enter a queue with much more deck variety.

I'm expecting Blaine and Dragonite dominating that pool. Alakazam, Melmetal and Arbok/Pidgeot a tier below and then random decks

EDIT: only Blaine and 1 Pika Ex/Zapdos Ex deck so far. That was fun

 

[Alex Hesketh]

Ok differently than Lapras I dont care for Venusaur so I wont be forced to play!! That Jiggly is a must however

 

[Jelliott]

Gotta pick up the Greninjas for my devious dragonite list

Of course I'm being serious, the main ladder is absolutely terrible.
However, I'm glad to see the community fixing it already. The games I had so far on the NOEX ladder were great.

I hope the coin and card sleeves become available, they look awesome.
