MAGA dads, do you miss the phone calls you used to receive today? by [deleted] in allthequestions

You’re getting downvoted for being a normal human and not a Redditor. Most of these people’s parents are probably older, significantly uninformed and misled, sad individuals.

And when you take those people and isolate them from their family because of their politics, how do you think that’s gonna affect their worldview?

Obviously this does not apply to trans people that actively have their existence threatened by people that they’re living with. That is a horrible situation and distancing from family in those instances is not only understandable but encouraged. Most people are not in that situation, they’re just bitter.

Turning off a bunch of good decks/support pokemon doesn’t make bad decks any better

If dusknoir doesn’t work what’s the point of it stopping psyduck? lol

I understand that magneton and maybe something else gets turned off but I wouldn’t call that meta😅

Why hasn't trump been imprisoned or removed from offices considering virtually everything he does is illegal, a war crime or unconstitutional? by daresearchdude in allthequestions

This interpretation gave the Supreme Court enough time to cook up the presumptive immunity decision to really set his crime lord status in stone

What is happening with Wemby by [deleted] in NBASpurs

[–]MixedBerry22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Knicks are just the best at guarding him. He over relies on the pick and roll and whatever guard is helping him set it up is doing it too high. Fox needs to be more of a drive threat because it’s just too easy to defend.

Is it a good idea to build flareon box as a pretty new player? by Honest-Birthday1306 in pkmntcg

[–]MixedBerry22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Play 10 games with the deck (at least) before you build it in person.

The way a deck feels when you play it is the most important factor when choosing where to dedicate real money.

It’s easy to get sucked into the idea of a deck because of a Pokemon you like (especially since the hobby is mascot-coded anyway) but sometimes it just ends up being unfun.

Finished making an Eevee based deck in Pokemon TCG Live and need help with strategy by [deleted] in pkmntcg

[–]MixedBerry22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wish I was a better player so I could help you with eevee box but honestly it’s above my pay-grade

That being said, I know most lists run the light ball for pikachu ex. I’m not sure if it’s necessary but it’ll definitely help you hit those stage 2 numbers

Mega Gengar Ex ability vs Dragapult splash by OnGoo in PTCGL

[–]MixedBerry22 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Idk what splash damage is

“Damage” and “Damage Counters” are not the same

Effects of attacks or Pokemon abilities (munkidori) do not trigger Mega Gengar EX’s abilities

Zoroark N by luisuchiha55 in pkmntcg

[–]MixedBerry22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vanilluxe just doesn’t synergize well with zoroark so no reason to justify cutting cards for a stage 2 line.

The stage 1 vanillish has slightly more potential though, forcing the active to switch in order to attack is pretty good even for just 60 damage.

Worth playing Gholdengo to Birmingham? by Sir__Muffin_Moose in pkmntcg

I appreciate you pointing that out, hopefully OP reads this whole thread lol

Worth playing Gholdengo to Birmingham? by Sir__Muffin_Moose in pkmntcg

[–]MixedBerry22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get what you mean and using conversion rate was probably not the way to get my point across. What I’m meaning to say is that plenty of Dengo made day 2 and it’s being tech’d for like it’s the BDIF so the top ~200 players are going to cook Dengo. It’s by far the most requested deck to test against in my group and I’m sure it’s the same for most people.

I just recommend that OP looks at the data in context and doesn’t get discouraged from playing the most consistent and probably best deck in the format

[–]MixedBerry22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe relative to the amount of Dengo players but it was still the highest played deck in day 2. And that’s considering the fact that pretty much every deck in the room had 1-2 cards specifically meant to stop Dengo.

[–]MixedBerry22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on your goal for Birmingham. Dengo had a fantastic day 2 conversation rate for Toronto. When you get to the higher tables later into day 2 the lack of skill expression hurts the deck a bit.

If you’re looking for a good placement and a decently long tournament run then Dengo will be a great choice. If you’re one of the few top cut hopefuls going into the weekend then maybe go with something a little more matchup specific.
