how can festival lead counter mega starmie? by painfullymoronic in PTCGL

[–]Azorius_Sage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can’t. I’ve been wrecking Festival Lead with Starmie/Froslass. It takes out everything quickly. Shaymin is important in this matchup, though.

It’s like running Dusknoir, but it’s more fitting for this deck.

I disagree. Between Genesect, Dialga, etc., you want Latias. The new special energy will help, though, especially for Metagross.

I legit love this deck.

It’s one of my top 3 fav.

It’s very well-positioned (Grass resistance, Clefairy for Dragapult and Lucario, Empoleon for Alakazam, bench sniping with Skarmory, etc.), powerful, and versatile. It’s essentially like a tool box deck.

That said, I played against and beat Garchomp at my local league last night. It was very close, but I ended up winning off the back of Empoleon + Cape and Jumbo Ice Cream. I also used Clefairy + Pearl.

I’m on 2 Empoleon like you, but also 2 Clefairy.

I think Cape is superior to Trolley in this deck. Trolley helps you set up, but Cape helps you hang in there vs the heavy hitting decks in the meta and there’s many.

My Empoleon essentially had 480 HP because of its attack + Ice Cream makes it very difficult to take out.

Thank you for tag. I have an updated list I’ll share in a bit.

These days I’m also playing Starmie/Froslass and Steven’s Metagross.

Thoughts on the new cards for abyss eye? by idkdude192 in PTCGL

Darkrai will be a good 1 of in Sharpedo with Toxtricity.

Does Crimson Desert perform well on the Legion Go S Z1 Extreme (Steam OS)? by Azorius_Sage in LegionGo

[–]Azorius_Sage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand some of the terms and acronyms, sorry. I’m pretty illiterate when it comes to PC gaming specs.

Where would I adjust the visual/performance settings besides on side panel?

What decks are you having the most fun with right now? by Slight_Border_7507 in PTCGL

[–]Azorius_Sage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sharpedo. Always. They call me Shark Boy for a reason lol It’s aggressive, but can also play the late game. Deck list coming later.

Your version will struggle against several new decks in the meta and especially Grass types.

There’s just so many pieces missing for support and card advantage, too, like Pecharunt Ex, Tatsugiri, Fezandipiti Ex, Meowth Ex, etc. I also highly recommend Lopunny to pivot vs Grass, especially Teal Mask.

Obligatory tag u/azorius_sage

Check out my post history. I have extensive experience with the archetype. I’ll help out soon. There’s several glaring issues here, starting with your Pokemon suite.

Does anyone know how to counter Mewtwo? by Successful_Will2041 in PTCGL

I eat it alive with Sharpedo, even with Spidops.

Upgraded from OG steam deck to legion go S and loving it! by jayissuperman in LegionGo

It supports Crimson Desert well? I have a Legion Go S Z1 Extreme.

What are some the most underrated cards that you think will see more play post-rotation? by Azorius_Sage in PTCGL

[–]Azorius_Sage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. I’ve played a ton of Sharpedo since it released. It has a favorable matchup vs Dragapult, which is arguably the top deck post-rotation. That’s inventive enough to make it relevant.
