    TCG Fakes Monarch's Fall Set - M Salamance EX Out!

    So here comes the first dragon type of this set. Since weakness and resistance are now +10-30 instead of x2, I'm giving each Dragon type that is not an EX a double Weakness and a double Resistance, if two can be found. Otherwise, just one of each. Trimmed a little more fat out of the set to...

    Discussion New Rogue Decks using Ancient Origin Cards!

    Just gonna say that this combo works better for Damagriiigus Cofagrigus than it does with with Whimsicott. Having to run Fairy Energy and Psychic Energy makes it a little inconsistent. OT: I'm not gonna reveal the deck I am working on until I have figured out how to make it work (or failed...

    TCG Fakes Monarch's Fall Set - M Salamance EX Out!

    Wait until you see Nidoking. ;) The attack name is nothing special though. It was an attack Team Magma's Groudon had many years back. I'm removing Maractus EX, as well as a few other cards for use in a future set (seriously, this set was a little too big).

    Question. For what format's power levels are you building this set for?

    TCG Fakes Monarch's Fall Set - M Salamance EX Out!

    1 is a bit too poor... It is a Special Energy that you need to attach to the active to benefit from, so it isn't like it is unrestricted draw in the way Unown AOR is. I'm leaning towards 2 (you can still get 3 if your Active has Wealth, but I'll give it a little while in case some others want to...

    Discussion Most Broken Pokemon Cards

    All cards change the game, that's a given. A broken card however changes the game in a direction that is unhealthy. The game is resilient; it can hold (and is holding) a lot of broken cards and would still not break. But that does not mean that it should.

    TCG Fakes Monarch's Fall Set - M Salamance EX Out!

    I debated on whether to have it draw 3 cards or 2 cards given that this costs your Energy Attachment for the turn and cannot be used on something you want to power up on the Bench, then figured I'd just go with the higher number and adjust it depending on feedback. Yes, the Nido Family will...

    TCG Fakes Monarch's Fall Set - M Salamance EX Out!

    I've been drafting this set together for a while now. It will have 93 cards (106 including Full Arts) and is themed around the rise and fall of royalty, featuring Pokemon with thematic relation to kings, emperors, nobles etc. This set will feature Mega Altaria and Mega Salamance, and contains...

    TCG Fakes TFP's Text-Based Fakes!

    For M Houndoom EX, why not have the burn be reliable at the cost of a discard? Something like: "You may discard a Fire Energy attached to this Pokemon. If you do, this attack does X more damage and the Defending Pokemon is now Burned." Seems like it would be more worth the effort.

    Discussion Most Broken Pokemon Cards

    About DCE, not really. After its reprint in Base Set 2, DCE was absent from then on all the way to HGSS, making it absent for 3 whole Generations. In other words, it was out of Standard from 2001 all the way to 2010. Nearly a decade, or about half the age (more than that, if I calculated...

    Discussion Most Broken Pokemon Cards

    That's the thing about EXs, they are the least hurt by the absence of support. I would hardly consider a pre-release representative of anything. Yet we have EXs like Magnezone EX that can have 3 Energies and can't sweep a thing. That's how it is, really. EXs aren't OP bu default, but some are...

    That problem has more to do with those specific EXs honestly, being designed to be good at all stages of the game.

    How so? We do have examples of EXs that are not broken.

    Discussion Most Broken Pokemon Cards

    I can agree. To be honest, I'm ok if some of the lines are completely filler, as long as the ones that aren't filler get decent pre-Evos that are not filler as well. That way we can see some viable Stage 2s being played alongside Big Basics. Even if it means reusing old concepts (as if we don't...

    Discussion Most Broken Pokemon Cards

    Just gonna point out a few things: * Crobat is viable specifically because its basics and stage 1s are not filler. Had Golbat not have its ability or free retreat, it would have been much, much worse. Problem is that it is the exception, rather than a rule. * Everything else except Garchomp...

    Discussion So Expanded is a thing - What's your play?

    Damagriiigus + Gengar and Wailord. Whether it will work with Vileplume remains to be seen, though. Meh, you'd most likely end up picking the deck the night before anyways, considering how little we know about the format.
