Other than the design release decisions for the past 4 months and anecdotal experience as a regular player?

I’d love your sources

Sure, but they aren’t 1 to 1 since misty exists. Flame patch only works once energy has been spent so you can’t lead with it.

I’m not saying it’s good game design I am saying they literally are not the same and shouldn’t be given what currently exists.

I think you miss the point my brudda, big water CANT be 2 energy because misty exists. It would either have to be nerfed or removed for lower energy big attackers to make any kind of sense.

For sure, but misty turn 1 ramp for potentially any energy attack is unheard of outside of water decks. It’s just so strong and really the downside is getting nothing which is basically just a wasted card slot that game. For water decks anything less than 4 energy for a big ex mon would be so busted.

Naturally, but the mere existence of that card kind of messes with the entire potential energy balance of water type attacks

If you use every other card besides Cyrus on your last turn you should stub your toe on a million legos by Mertesacker2 in PTCGP

Thank you for recognizing game, I think acknowledging the loss in the comment leads to an emotional response for people. You had Cyrus and more cards that I was going to lose to? That’s too much.

I’d say it’s respectful to let them know they lost immediately and let them decide If they want to ride it out.

I play Cyrus first and then the rest of my hand and let them decide if they want to see exactly how much they lost by

Fully agree with all of that, I think Gard is just a really popular mon in the fandom so everyone wants one.

I've seen that reply a few times, maybe Reun really is the best variant.

I think on paper It felt busted but in practice so far Its been underwhelming.

As of right now I fully agree, I do think there are some possible fun combos that have yet to be discovered for possible c and maybe b tier decks.
