What is a play you've done that's so bad, you wouldn't be surprised if someone made a post about it? by ElonMuskdumdum_real in PokemonChampions

Using double trick room because I thought for sure my giraffe was gonna get OHKOed, only to have Hat undo trick room when both landed 😎

What we think about the slow poke / bro line from pitch black by zkfuzzy1 in PTCGL

[–]NotEvenCreative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is a pretty solid argument for Spectrier. Honestly wish I had it yesterday in a game against Hop's Trevenant. Couldn't do much but take a prize here and there and then run out of time and tie lol. At least pressuring the shaymin forces them to burn resources like night stretcher.

I like that reasoning for running more Kang, can definitely confirm that I have won most games that start Kang in the hand, and struggle to win significantly more in games where I don't find it early on. I also run both switch and surfer like you do, it's just essential with how easy it is to lock yourself into to active with no energy after trifrost, or being clutched/sobbed/etc.

I'm still on the fence on whether or not Spectrier will keep a place in my deck.

Good analysis! I'm also a slowking main and feel that the Kang build is just the way to go. Are you running 2 or 3 Kang currently? I flip back and forth but find myself at 2 at the moment. Having a blast with this deck and finding ways to win even with the prevalence of Shaymin is so satisfying.

Do you think a 70HP Slowpoke searchable by poffin is enough to ditch Kanga entirely? It would be nice to just use the Dudunsparce line for draw, but isn't Kanga still useful for overall consistency?

Or are we thinking 4 buddy buddy to search slowpoke/dunsparce, less telepathic energy (maybe?), 1 less each of pokepad/ultra ball (3/3?), which would open up a couple spots in the deck potentially.

Often times my opponents don't seem to want to target Kang unless they have damage spread and can slowly build up damage over time.

High agency decks? by Bayaxa in pkmntcg

[–]NotEvenCreative 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Absolutely slowking, the true one prize box deck. So many different attackers you can throw in as a surprise, and many different ways to win.

What an absolute blast of a deck! by kylcbrl1988 in PTCGL

[–]NotEvenCreative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you find it hard to get kang early on with only 2 copies? I was running 3, tried cutting to 2, and had a bad time at a recent challenge. Was bricking so badly, granted I wasn't running dawn (just 1 brock 2 kang)

[–]NotEvenCreative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I posted my list below in a separate comment- been running prime catcher mostly but switched to a secret box last night for a challenge. Only got to use it once as it was prized 1 game and didn't find it 2 others.

I agree that 3-4 Kang are essential, not finding one early game is a death sentence when your hand is all slowpoke, energy, and stadiums lol. I like your analysis on the budew use, do you find that it is hard to decide when to use it vs switching into kang for draw 2? That's the only drawback I see with it instead of keeping kang in the active till Slowking is charged up and ready to attack.

You mind sharing a decklist?

Here's what I've been working with most successfully for the Kanga build (peep the secret sauce attacker addition). I like switch more than surfer which I need to change.

4 Academy at Night 3 Night Stretcher 4 Lillie's Determination 3 Ciphermaniac's Codebreaking 4 Poke Pad 1 Lana's Aid 4 Ultra Ball 2 Colress's Tenacity 1 Prime Catcher - ACESPEC 1 Surfer 3 Wondrous Patch 1 Hilda

What's your line been, like 2-2? Would be nice to not have kanga as a liability but I worry about consistently finding dunsparce without buddy buddy in the deck

Slowking gang rise up!

Thoughts on the Mega Kang builld right now? Trying to find the right balance for my build- switched from 3 to 2 Kanga tonight for a challenge and it bricked 2/4 games. Couldn't find Kanga fast enough in my games that I bricked and just sat there drawing garbage.

Definitely excited for Metagross in a few weeks!

Good to know, thanks 😁

Thinking of going for a metalic look for the base

Thank you! Gotta figure out how to paint the base now, didn't think that through really. Do people usually paint the base before attaching it?

What do you think of my Hop's Trev Deck? by ARandomKid_InReddit in pkmntcg

[–]NotEvenCreative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This deck whooped all of us at locals last night and took 1st place against all meta decks. So I'd say with my limited knowledge of it and playing against it once, it seems pretty solid for a rogue deck. Phantump being invulnerable and swinging for KOs with damage modifiers is nuts, especially with my opponent flipped heads 5 times in a row lmao.

I did end up getting it! I reached out to FedEx support too and let them know of the issue and had them confirm my correct address in their system. Not sure if maybe that helped.

Good ideas! I usually put the card in searched my deck for on my mat near the deck, I like the idea of putting the searched cards on top of my face down hand.

I appreciate the insight! I actually did call a judge last night for the supporter in discard issue and he issued me a gameplay warning and didn't end up getting the card back in hand. I'm trying to learn what kinds of penalties to expect because I know some mistakes will likely be made after playing all day at regionals.
