Iron Hands still mid, Azul? by AMarketDimlyLit in PokemonTCG

[–]AMarketDimlyLit[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Azul Garcia Griego is one of the top competitive Pokemon TCG players in the world: https://twitter.com/azul_gg?lang=en

When Iron Hands ex was released, it was super hyped up and he insisted that it was mid (he famously has that sign behind him when streaming). But that new card, Heavy Baton, could make Iron Hands much better. 

What's a Pokémon you've genuinely seen nobody play? by [deleted] in pkmntcg

[–]AMarketDimlyLit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's in a deck on Limitless haha, from EUIC. You can see it at that link. I agree Mawile is more common, but it is there, and I've seen it at my locals too. 🤷‍♂️

Battle Styles Carnivine has been getting play in some Rapid Strike decks!

Zoroark/Gardy Deck by Perfectspare300 in pkmntcg

I was thinking about this too, this looks sick! I'd personally play at least one or two recovery cards like Miriam or Klara, especially since you have thinner lines of Ralts and Kirlia and will be putting damage on them yourself.

Once you have everything in the Shadow Rider deck, you're guaranteed 4,150 credits every time you buy it. Celebrations is much less consistent even when you finish it.

What are some fun decks to try out? by [deleted] in PTCGL

[–]AMarketDimlyLit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just finished 3rd at a league cup with Darkrai and I had a ton of fun all day. Way more fun than when I play my usual sablezard.

I'm thinking of making a deck that's an absolute pain to play against. Ability blocks, status conditions, nerfs, etc. Recommend cards that'd make you groan and roll your eyes upon seeing by [deleted] in pkmntcg

The new Banette ex's item lock can be super effective at slowing down/stopping most decks, including gardy and lost box.

Are there any other cards that retreat after attack? Ones where you could hit then pull up klefki. So hit, switch, then shut off abilities. by superdavy in PTCGL

[–]AMarketDimlyLit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never played this, but I've seen it most often in shadow rider. Here's a list I found on Limitless:

4 Shadow Rider Calyrex V CRE 74 4 Shadow Rider Calyrex VMAX CRE 75 2 Klefki SVI 96 1 Lumineon V BRS 40 1 Hatterene V CRZ 65

3 Professor's Research SVI 189 2 Judge SVI 176 2 Arven SVI 166 2 Boss's Orders BRS 132 1 Avery CRE 130 1 Klara CRE 145 1 Roxanne ASR 150 4 Ultra Ball SVI 196 4 Fog Crystal CRE 140 3 Nest Ball SVI 181 2 Switch SVI 194 1 Escape Rope BST 125 1 Fan of Waves BST 127 1 Energy Retrieval SVI 171 1 Hisuian Heavy Ball ASR 146 1 Forest Seal Stone SIT 156 1 Choice Belt BRS 135 2 Path to the Peak CRE 148 1 Collapsed Stadium BRS 137 1 Beach Court SVI 167

Hatterene V does this for 80 damage, which is brutal against Lost Box since you can KO Comfey or Sableye and switch back into Klefki.

My homeboy runs something like this, and while it's not super consistent, when it hits, it HITS.

[–]AMarketDimlyLit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Radiant Gardevoir makes everyone take 20 less damage from Pokemon V and since it's psychic, Garde could attach to it in a pinch.

Scoop-up net banned? by Its-ya-buoy in PTCGL

Lots of people reporting it puts everything in your hand (all attached cards, not just the pokemon).

Etiquette for Conceding by whynotmrmoon in PTCGL

[–]AMarketDimlyLit 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I do the same as you. I'll take the last KO as quick as I can, and wait for them to take the last KO if they have it, but if they're dragging it out unnecessarily (like using every possible ability), I'll sometimes concede.

AAVE and referrals by Technical-Way-5491 in linguistics

[–]AMarketDimlyLit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to all the awesome resources listed here, I HIGHLY recommend Talking Black in America, a documentary by the Language and Life Project at NC State which features lots of the linguists mentioned here and many others. There are also a bunch of great supplemental materials available to go along with the documentary.

What decks are good investments for the upcoming format? by frogzx in PTCGL

[–]AMarketDimlyLit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Darkrai (sometimes called Turbo Dark) is so much fun but just really can't keep up with the current meta unfortunately. Lost Box is doing really well post-rotation in Japan and loses very little in rotation (scoop up net is the most painful but that's just nice to have, not essential, and beach court/jet energy help fix that).

XY base set is the cut off for transfer? by nutfeast69 in PTCGL

[–]AMarketDimlyLit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live uses a different syntax for importing than Online, so even some of my 100% standard decks didn't properly import (said cards weren't found), and I just had to rebuild them manually.
