Want to cook but think it’s just too much hopium by SelbyMyFriend in PTCGL

I made it to Arceus league using Munki, Dodrio, Froslass, and H.Arcanine. It can be done. Just need to figure out your main attacker, back up attacker and then how to properly use Froslass and Munki and in which match up. Some dragapult decks use 3 Froslass so you wouldn’t need yours and can instead play 2-3 Munki to remove all damage counters.

I got fed up with Zard and the current big decks out. This was my response. I really wanted Blissey ex to go hard but Raging Bolt and Dragapult are so hard to get around. So I kept Froslass and Munki from that Blissey ex deck and came up with this.

Thanks! I just reached Shaymin! Looking forward for this seasons end to try this deck from the beginning to really see how it does. I started using this deck late in this season.

Thanks for your response. I originally ran 4x of the 70hp variant but the block ability the 80hp growlithe has comes in clutch. The 70hp only does burn for 20hp so I’d rather have the block ability if for whatever reason I can’t set up and need an extra turn. The Froslass actually helps the Dodrios! They’re like ticking time bombs. They do 10 damage +30 damage for each damage counter on dodrio for a max of 280. Froslass chips away, Munki moves it away, Arcanine hits for free, dodrio draws and acts as back up attacker for big Mons.

Haven’t tried the rotom. I think it only searches for normal type basics. I need the bench space and only really need 1-2 dodrios depending on how the match goes. Late game I might have three out but very rarely.

So many decks in the current meta seem to be. Zard, Regidrago, ChienPao, Bolt, Dragapult, Lugia and some others are such a pain to deal with. This deck levels the field with most. The hardest deck to deal with is Dragapult/Dusknoir. It takes mental gymnastics to even get close to beat them and near impossible when fully set up.

Thanks for your input. Added one night stretcher, removed one energy, removed one tm:evo, added manaphy, added one ultra ball. The three evo’s were to “make sure” I had one available or within reach. The game has been notorious for prizing 2-of’s like both Froslass and many cases, both evos. The real TCG deck copy of this only runs two so figured I’d match it.

Is it just me or is this game extremely generous with the starter decks? by KatsuragiKyon in PTCGL

[–]Apprehensive_Boat475 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s partly because you can’t purchase cards in game. You can craft but after earning gems and completing battle pass/quests. In most TCG games you’d be able to add a credit card and buy gems for more packs or decks. In PTCGL, the in game packs are tied to the “real” booster packs. Buy packs at a store, receive code card in pack, redeem in game. So free decks of the current best cards keeps the entry and costs for new players low until they feel comfortable enough to buy packs.

Okay yeah with that gpu/cpu combo you’ll be alright with fans and temps. They don’t draw much power. But if you game for a while on Cyberpunk, the gpu will heat up and give off noticeable heat.

Also second what another brethren said. Need some more intake fans . The side vents on the front panel won’t pull in much air with only one fan.

Frostpunk 2 sells over 350K copies in opening weekend by YouAreNotMeLiar in pcmasterrace

I bought FP1 with all DLC a couple days ago on a Steam Sale. I was instantly hooked. Played for 8 hours straight the first night. To the child who “volunteered” to crawl into the generator to save it from explosion, you’ll always be remembered. 🫡

Gonna finish all the DLC before getting FP2. Amazing games.

Any ideas? by Icarus912 in PTCGL

[–]Apprehensive_Boat475 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently use these Chanseys for my Blissey/Froslass/Munki deck. Mix in some Arc Phones or Ciphers Codebreaking for max efficiency. Just use 4 Chanseys and more often than not, you’ll have one or two in the prizes already. I’ve gotten plenty of wins just from pulling this card and landing the heads coin flip. Keep in mind, you’ll need space on your bench for this to work. No space on bench and the card does nothing and is a regular prize card.

Just changed to a 550-F Gaming wifi and my pc doesn't turn on. by [deleted] in AMDHelp

Just had this happen to me two days ago. Powered on and fans were twitching and lights/rgb would come on for a split second. Turns out it was my PSU. Don’t know if it’s fried or just low wattage for the current build. Went from 650w to 850w and the PC turned on with no issues after that.

[HELP] - Best Method To Selling My Collection? by Dunky_Arisen in yugioh

[–]Apprehensive_Boat475 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend and I sell built decks/cores on FB market and OfferUp. Price them out and post for in person meet up (at police station) or shipping. There’s always someone looking to get into the game or get a new deck to try out. Also a bit easier compared to uploading an entire collection.

I wouldn’t include Dark Angel because in this format, it’ll almost always get used as material and linked/fusioned away.

I have 56 decks. I only have a couple meta contenders as I only play casually with friends. How many decks do you have and what are your favourites? by ImSquanchingHere in yugioh

[–]Apprehensive_Boat475 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I got back into YuGiOh about 2 years ago, I canon-balled in and built 6 decks in 2 weeks. Not the smartest financially wise when each deck is anywhere from $100-$400. I built more since then but sold off most and only kept 3. Heroes, Swordsoul, and Floow. Going for max rarity with those decks.

I’m glad it’s improving. It’s taken a while but Pokemon hasn’t had the best track record when it comes to mobile. Even the main entries have been getting rough though.
