    Discussion What Deck Will Win Worlds 2017?

    I doubt Fire will win. It's good, and will probably make it to at least quarters, but it won't win.

    what? no. you can play vulpix, but why on earth would you play ninetails? I'm sorry but that is just bad. Greninja loses its two search cards, but you can mitigate that with things like Starmie+Ultra Ball or Octillary. Its not going to be as consistent, but nothing will make it that consistent...

    Discussion What Deck Will Win Worlds 2017?

    That's what i said lol, i said it can beat Metagross, it's just he worst match up for it. And like i also said, the rest after the top four are movable, but overall don't matter.

    Discussion What Deck Will Win Worlds 2017?

    Gardevoir will win worlds for the same reason why Darkrai won worlds in 2013. It has good match-ups into everything, and the one bad match-up is winnable. You have to look at this from a numbers perspective. Majority Decks: Gardevoir Garbodor Ninetales (with/without Owl) Metagross GX Underdog...

    It's hard to say for now, because the Darkrai GX ratios are still up in the air as to what is best. You have problems here and there against the Tier 1 decks, but i'd say it's mostly break even matchups, maybe slightly unfavorable for Dark. It loses hard to Gardevoir GX. It's mainly down do...

    Discussion What Deck Will Win Worlds 2017?

    If anyone thinks that Golisopod will make it to TOP 16 with Volcanian/Ho-oh decks being so good right now, you're insane. Not to mention that Golisopod has WORSE match-ups in this format compared to next format because of its heavy item use (VS Seeker for Guzma [if you are playing lysandre over...

    Discussion Standard Meta Tier List

    Garb/Drampa will be the best by far. Volcanian will more than likely be traded out for the Ho-oh GX decks. And Gardevoir GX will be tier 1 just because of its match-ups against everything not named Metagross GX.

    Discussion Standard Meta Tier List

    The two lists at Internationals both used three Shaymin EX minimum. And the reason it dies without Shaymin EX is because of the draw power. You need to draw your skybase (which rotates anyways, so the deck is dead anyways), your pokemon, your tech pokemon, and your Mega Spirit Links. The deck...

    Discussion Ho-Oh-GX GX Uses (Standard)

    "Viable" The cards are still bad. It's not the evolution that makes the bad, its the attacks.

    Discussion Standard Meta Tier List

    Using circumstances is a bad way to judge the quality of a card. While yes, Black Ray GX can hit the back line that they swtiched out of, it's also a liability at that point. Because Metagross GX can 2HKO everything without the fear of getting OHKO'd by anything not FIRE type, you won't need the...

    Discussion Standard Meta Tier List

    Necrozma is weak to Psychic (Garbodor) which is Metagross's best matchup. The deck already beats Gardevoir because of weakness. It makes Metagross worse, not better. Yes it's OHKO potential is there, but Metagross has 0 problems OHKOing most decks now. Even the one's it doesn't OHKO can't OHKO...

    Discussion Ho-Oh-GX GX Uses (Standard)

    Ah, over looked that. So yeah, going first would be best, and it would give you time for more set-up anyways. so i definitly believe the deck is the best fire deck. Ho-oh/Turt > Volcanian

    Discussion Ho-Oh-GX GX Uses (Standard)

    This is how Volcanian should evolve. You basically play the deck like SogaleoGX/Rayquaza. You punch things really hard for the OHKO with Ho-oh, then recover when needed with Turtonator. You want to win the coin toss and go second almost every time because Ho-Oh GX+Kaiwe is just too good. You get...

    Discussion Is Volcanion-EX Still a Good Deck?

    No, Metagross and Solgaleo. Not Metagross/Solgaleo. Don't believe the hype man, Garchomp/Altaria, never forget.

    Discussion Is Volcanion-EX Still a Good Deck?

    Its a win-more card that people think belongs in the deck. It's in there because it can OHKO stage 1 gx's. Not that the deck has any problems with that, but eh, to each their own.

    To be totally honest, pretty much any post rotation deck without Lele is less than $50.

    Discussion Is Volcanion-EX Still a Good Deck?

    I've been having this conversation with a couple people about Metagross and Solgaleo decks and the Volcanian match-up. It's actually not that bad for the Metal types, yes, Volca hits for weakness, but if the Metal player is even a bit set up, he can OHKO right back. I think the match-up is 60-40...

    Discussion Noivern GX/ Decidueye GX, viable?

    Personally, if you're using the owl as a partner, you need to never use the owl for attacking you should go 8 dark, 4 Rainbow and almost never use the rainbow unless you have too. With one owl up and a Choice Band, you can drop 100 on board in one turn, 120 with two owls. Go for the 2HKO on...

    Discussion Why Isn't Golduck SM Competitive?

    It's really a "pick your poison" reason why it's not good. The low health stats, the low damage cap, the consistency problem. It's a fun card, but it's not good.
