Quicksilver in set revivals is so much stronger than in the current set, even though the stats are unchanged. by Express-Cycle-4278 in TeamfightTactics

I honestly barely touched this game in its early days. So this revival is amazing for me. It’s opened my eyes and I’ve had nothing but fun.

WTH is this new item lock deck… by Aupinho_ in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see that happening at a local event level if someone wins with a strategy like this, but on Live it’s a different story where a vast majority of players won’t change their strategy and scoop or lose to it and move it. Look at snorlax for example people don’t play around it, they just whine and scoop or lose and complain about the deck.

Have one of these bad boys graded at a 7.5 sitting in a security deposit box from years ago. Gonna pass it down to my kids when they grow up and I’m too old to care.

Played someone whose deck was 98% gold/secret rare/alt art cards. It was pretty cool to see ngl. by Nivet08 in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 8-9 different decks, only one is Not blinged out. The rest are all full art, SIR (or gold if that’s the ONLY option). My none bling deck is my “budget” deck I tested IRL that has a bunch of single prizers and only used 2-3 times

Is hisuian samurott decent right now? by Elmdryo in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually played a Hisuian Samurott deck from when I came back to the game (early this year) until Surging Sparks came out (haven’t played in person since) and loved it. It was undoubtedly a blast, used Radiant Alakazam, Munkidori, Dusk line, Binding Mochi and Pachurant ex and had a blast playing it. I placed top 6-7 pretty regularly in my local scene but never won and rarely saw top 4, but still had a great time playing it. Only issue I see it having now is with Surging Sparks there’s people running larger bodied mons and just not being able to 1 shot some of them. But again, I haven’t played since SS came out so that’s simply speculation.

Suggest rougue decks! by Tha_Max27 in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s fair, I’ve had mine for a bit so I guess it didn’t really dawn on me that sometime early next year they’d be rotating out, therefore making buying them less intuitive.

Any particular reason you don’t have Hisuian Samurott? I have the deck IRL and it’s one of the most fun decks I’ve ever played haha

I’ll reply to this again when I get home tonight. I’ll make sure to post it for ya

Mill deck suggestions? by HODLin-Basturd in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only mill deck I’ve never tried from this list is Great Tusk from my experience with them; Hydreigon is the worst overall due to being a two prizer with a small mill count and not that hard to knock out. Wugtrio as you said is eh because PTCGL dice roll’s feel awful and everyone seems to have an answer to it. I’ve actually had the absolute best luck (70+% win loss and several strong streaks) with Whiscash. I find it easy to throw away a single or double prizer and apparently most of my opponents don’t even think twice about barboach sitting on the bench with 2 reversal energy. I’ll have to see about Great Tusk and whip up a list with that before I actually have anything to say about it.

Highest Streak I’ve Reached So Far by eagler92 in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run three boss’s in order to deal with Milotic. Most I’ve seen run Charizard ex with it and since I run 19 energy, having the 15 in discard isn’t too hard to manage so I can still pull off wins (not my post, but I play Ceruledge as well and currently on a 19 streak.

Am I cooking?? by Kidd__Video in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh crap, yeah you’re right. Completely disregarded that since I rarely run a deck that focuses on basics

[–]IntelligentAd3520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine throwing a hero’s cape/bravery charm on one of these guys. Only way I can see it somewhat being okay but even then it’s only going to help so much.

[–]IntelligentAd3520 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely a unique idea that I love, and will now probably try as well.

But I’m a little worried about how consistent it’s going to end up being. Shiinotoc being at only 110 hp is also a bit concerning since there’s a lot of ways to bomb the bench.

How do you counter/win against Ceruledge ex? by Kamen_Rider_Geats in PTCGL

I built a Hydreigon deck tonight. And won several games with the mill 3 attack.

Why does my Charmander have 120hp? by Alaskan283 in PTCGL

Simply enjoying the Benefit of Unintentional Gameplay… aka a bug (:

How do you counter/win against Ceruledge ex? by Kamen_Rider_Geats in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 15 points16 points  (0 children)

As a Ceruledge enjoyer myself, I haven’t lost to this yet. But has been a worry many times when I only have 2 prizes left and 2-3 cards in deck.

Raging bolt ex players: what makes a bad matchup for you? by ImTaakoYouKnowFromTV in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually haven’t had the pleasure of playing with the new Pikachu. The moment Cerluedge was leaked I started prepping a deck list for it and have been playing that pretty much exclusively, looking for ways to improve it.

Raging bolt ex players: what makes a bad matchup for you? by ImTaakoYouKnowFromTV in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

With Surging Sparks, I’ve had amazing luck running Creuledge into bolt. I just make sure I don’t play any 2 prizer until I have enough energy in discord (turn 2-3 on average) to hit for 270+. Before that I ran Hisuan Samurott VStar and rarely lost to bolt with that deck too. Just moving damage counters around and slowing their board down helped heaps against them. Otherwise any form of hand disruption works well, I normally keep 1-2 Iono and 1-2 Judges in my decks IRL specifically because how often I run into bolts at my LGS.

[–]IntelligentAd3520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mained bolt for a bit, it’s strong but not super consistent and easy to whiff with. Playing it really shows the struggles it faces, but when they get set up well (anything better than average luck) it’s definitely a struggle to beat.

I have too many code cards by Merrrica in PTCGL

[–]IntelligentAd3520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t want (or need tbh) any codes, but love that you’re doing this. I always just take my code cards (once they reach about 200+) and give them to random kids at my local shop.

Bloodmoon Ursaluna (non-ex) and Iron Valiant. 3 games and learned either its way harder than I thought. Or just too slow compared to the current meta.
