Inb4 I play it round 1 and get horrible hands both games then go on an utter losing streak for the rest of the event. Every major event I've played in I get screwed into matchmaking hell because I lose the first round.

Also I really need a new gameplan for fighting Hoopa. He runs through Riolu like nothing and It's hard to 2 shot him for 1 prize when he takes 1 prize every turn. I can only double Puzzle twice, and their Acerolas slow me down to the point that I can't do anything.

Usually in my games vs Glaceon they end up going first, denying my Lele, which I usually never get anyway as well as not starting with Brigette. I just have a general hard time setting up and getting going as they usually have aggressive Guzma plays on my starters before they evolve, and if I do...

In theory yes, but somehow I still find myself struggling against the deck. If you're available at all during the rest of the day would you want to playtest with me?

You're sure only 2 Strong would be enough? If I dropped 2 strong for 2 Basic fighting you think that would leave the deck in a decent enough position? What do you think I could change to help my performance against Glaceon-GX decks? That's my biggest fear for tomorrow.

Would you say I should just drop the 4th strong energy for the 1 basic fighting or should I try to squeeze it in somewhere else, I'm going to edit the main post with an updated list shortly. EDIT: My original post now reflects the current decklist I'm using. The only thing that I would like to...

He means it's a counter when you play down yours before they can get theirs out.

Oddly enough there's a lot on that list that I wasn't fond of, and is the reason why I didn't look in to changing my list to be more like it. I think 3-2 Lucario is suboptimal but we'll just have to see how it goes.

That sounds good. I've taken out the 3rd Acerola for the 4th Guzma. What should I drop for the Tapu Koko? I'm considering perhaps the 4th Riou?

For now I really think I need that non-gx zoroark, it's helped a lot in turns where I don't want to promote a 2 prize attacker, and can hit 190 with a choice band vs a full bench. I really have no effective ways of dealing with Hoopa. Mewtwo 2-shots it if it has 3 energy attached, provided they...

Hey guys. I'm hitting up Portland Regionals as my first major event since 2012 after picking up the game competitively about a year ago. I'm pretty sold on Lucario-GX/Zoroark-GX for the event and would like some feedback before the big weekend. (I'm also considering Dusk Mane/Zoroark/Magnezone...

Reapersfuryx wins 2-0 @PMJ I am dropping from the tournament

RoboSensei wins against @masterofmew 2-0 due to no-show

Oooh! A Lurantis-GX deck! I might have to get my hands on one of those

Are you a PokeBeach premium member? No What is your PTCGO screen name (the name you battle with, not the name you log in with)? RoboSensei What time zone do you live in? (If you don’t know what time zone you live in, use a World Clock to find out.) Pacific Time Did you play in February’s...

I'm so relieved that this isn't some busted card. Hopefully not many people play this, and greninja dies in rotation

What do you think would be the better play for the card? Would you rather play the metal variant with Magnezone, or would you rather play a psychic type variant with Malamar (psychic dynamotor/metal links) Personally I think both decks could perform very well with their respective strategies...

@RoboSensei beats @Ecourts 2-0

Huh. Maybe I went a bit too far trading for 3 Dusk Manes at prereleases

Round 4 @RoboSensei wins 2-0 vs @Haaaaarry
