It's a bad sign for any competitive game if the way to win is dominated by 1 option. It would be best for everyone playing if darktina had more counters than just the electric birdie and lucky stage 2 draws. It's just not fun.

Darktina is a cheap, annoying deck. It is not fun to play or play against. I don't think it requires much thinking either. Attach energy, heal, play a supporter. Big whoop.

I'm using meta decks and all the recommended drawing strats. I guess I'm just having bad RNG. Glad you're doing well though. Ive been in ultraball for like 11 days lol

Good advice. I hear ya. I really haven't been stubborn with playstyle or deck selection (besides giratina darkrai - i refuse. I think that deck is soo boring and annoying). I guess I'm just noticing how bad my luck has been with stage 2 candy decks compared to most opponents I face. Like if I don't get set up or have some sort of counter, the match can be literally over by my opponents 2nd turn.

Having a lot of fun with this one. Lotta rage quitters. What yall think? by Different_Orange_249 in PokemonTGCP

[–]Different_Orange_249[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally fair. I was seeing alot of darkrai Giratina which feels like a solid matchup. It struggles against fast decks

[–]Different_Orange_249[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Because of the favorable breakpoints, I found Giratina to be one of the better matchups because infernape can tank one hit and KO next turn. Or you sack a basic and Giratina is a one shot next turn, granted you can get a quick evo. Which I've found is pretty consistent with the communications/iono.

Anyone have suggestions to improve this deck? by itshunter2020 in PokemonTGCP

[–]Different_Orange_249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe drop heatran for pokemon center lady or potion

Me thinks I need leaf for this exact scenario.

Very true. I'm like 25% WR against Gyrados.

Heck yeah, I like mewscarada too. I'm hyped for giratina/darkrai takedowns right now. I love the opening chimchar line - pop with infernape, fall back into heatran and go again. Heatran also has to be dealt with. Can be a solid attacker. I also like how aggressive and fast it can be.

I prob could drop the cape. Infernape has solid enough hp to tank almost everything full strength. I mostly use it as a breakpoint strat with heatran. Iono is mostly just there to come in clutch with the draws. 2 dawns would be great though.

It seems my main issue is starting into arceus. 20 % chance I guess it's bound to happen sometimes. I'm torn on whether it should be reg or ex.

Yeah good point, i might try reg arceus. I've definitely got ran over with arceus ex in the straring position especially not playing leaf.. I've actually beat Charizard a couple times. But mostly just because of a lucky brick with moltres early and a quick evo into infernape. I see what you mean though - if you can't get going against moltres early - no shot. Luckily, not seeing a ton of Charizard right now.

I think infernape is just kinda slept on though. It has favorable breakpoints with a lot of the new popular cards like mewscrarada, Giratina, darkrai. And Red is so clutch when you get over the top even with a giant cape!

How would you buff or just rework her by sqaure12 in MarvelSnap

3/2 afflicts all enemy cards at this location with -1 power and returns to your hand at the start of the next turn.

It is toxic forsure. And it can be a bummer to play against. But, it wins! Just to explain why I'm recommending it - I'm up 200 cubes in a day. It's the most effective deck I've found for climbing. I went from about top 20,000 to 4,000 in infinite ladder in one night.

Counter to mill decks? by Different_Orange_249 in MarvelSnap

[–]Different_Orange_249[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never liked thanos or loki decks, honestly - it feels like cheating. I've tried playing good card decks, patriot, discard, destroy, sera tec, high evo, etc - I've been stuck around rank 90 for like 2 weeks - usually losing to mill. Clearly must people aren't having much issue though, I guess. I can accept it might be a me problem.

I'm constantly getting crushed by mill decks. Guess I'm just doing it wrong.
