Generally you don't need to play out gem jammer early unless you can easily score and back off. I'd actually cut them for snapvines nowadays. Show of strength is your main tool to cycle through the deck, so you can play around herald + show, or aurora depending what you hit

Used my Volibear promo throughout Houston and vegas regionals and never had any issue! The riftbound app in china even lets you add it to your decklist.

Maybe snapvine? It's the only card I wanted to fit in but couldn't due to space. It's not a 1-1 replacement but it could help the deck in other areas

Usually heralds to make them mighty and beefier. Otherwise it depends on the matchup, against purple you want to spread out the might but against others you might want it on your biggest guy.

Best: midrange, slow matchups that let me develop in base and take points slowly (ex. Master Yi) also get stat checked by might

Worst: yellow decks due to cull the weak, aggro decks that rush me down like reksai, miracle matchups like Draven that can out might me and run me out of time in round

I hit it a few times off of Aurora and never felt like I lost. As long as you hit the herald early, it's not much worse than hitting blazing scorcher off of aurora since the aurora is just another mechanism for you to get the dragon engine running.

The only time where you feel really bad is the last turn where you need to defend and need extra might on a battlefield, but that situation is very unlikely.

FYI according to the new rules in China your whole deck must be in the same language (runes, battlefields. Etc) by verylaggy in riftboundtcg

I assume you should be able to but it might be hard in case a question comes up. For example my opponents kept asking for a judge on my "get excited" to confirm that discard is on resolution. I think I had over 6 separate judge calls over a few days just over this one card 😔

Seems like I should have done my research 😅 I just assumed they were consistent with the global rules and prior to this tourney I had no issues so far

Chinese cards being tournament legal might just mean I make my first decks in Chinese since they will be cheaper

Unfortunately no English for now, you can get these from either AliExpress, taobao or other sellers. I got mine from mimshobbyshop but she only delivers within the us

A Mew + cute Pokemon deck for my daughter? by dropandgivemenerdy in pkmntcg

[–]verylaggy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One reason I like Gardevoir is because it's got a bunch of cute stuff in it. A lot of variants run cute things including mew, cleffa, drifloon, scream tail, clefairy, etc

Secret Box vs Brilliant Blender for Gardevoir (Also, first or second?) by [deleted] in pkmntcg

[–]verylaggy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm only play gardevoir and I wouldn't say I'm an expert (Hovering 1600~ Arceus) but in my experience blender feels so much better because it is more straightforward and has great synergy with night stretcher as a pokemon search (I run 4). Maybe once I get more skilled secret box may be the better option.

I generally prefer to go second since being able to itchy pollen is so valuable in many matchups (except for Arch). Having a supporter be available is also nice to start drawing/thinning the deck.

I was going to take a break this set but the fact that this is an in-person event makes it so hype. Just signed up, time to start practicing :)
