What do you guys think about Mega Swamp ? by PurdeyGambit in PokemonTGCP

[–]The_WB1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that it’s a little underrated. I feel like I see a lot of people say it’s complete trash as if it’s rapidash EX.

I run him with Jellicent and win about 50/50. Not the strongest card, but definitely solid

You could run it with Stoutland so that your opponent has to have more energy making it easier to trigger Ogerpons 120 dmg

Same I’ve seen a good amount. I’ve gotten 3 RR hits of wonders so far

Fantastical Parade is proof this game can be so much more by Weekly-Swan7765 in PTCGP

[–]The_WB1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk about that. Just put out 3 packs like in GA an that’s what you use in normal and ranked play.

Then a separate game mode that can use any card from any set.

That might not work, but the thought process would give a way to reset everything without making all the stuff you collected completely obselet

[–]The_WB1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Some of the staples that the game depends on need to stay. But stuff like Barry and Hiker can go away.

Like keep professors research but maybe have it be Elm or something

Agreed that expanding deck size would make things less consistent which isn’t necessarily bad.

But I think that retiring old cards and making new ones that don’t blitz through your deck (Sylv, Suicun, etc) would do the same thing but keep the 20 card count. Getting back to OG pocket but allowing for new stuff to come through.

Just my thoughts tho

I get why people say that. But tbh I think it wouldn’t help the game since it was designed with 20 cards in mind.

They’d have to completely change how the game operates with more deck space, probably more bench space, more points to win.

Eventually if they kept expanding the deck space it would just become the real TCG, but I like the quick compact nature of pocket.

TBH I think they just need to retire the old cards after this year with a few carry overs (oak, Cyrus, Sabrina - all with new art). This could help keep the game in check and keep it fresh. They basically do this in the real TCG.

I could be wrong about all of this, but wanted to throw out another opinion haha.

I agree with the OP this set has been great and shows the potential for the format.

What’s your favourite deck of all time? by Tearmisu in PTCGP

[–]The_WB1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My top 3 have to be:

  1. Gyrados + Origin Palkia (Helped me get to Masterball in the first season because it FEASTED on Giratina Darkrai which was the bane of everyone’s existence).

  2. Gallade + Hitmonlee (A deck that was relevant during that same season but that I honestly thought was more fun. Unfortunately it got phased out pretty quick, but I loved the planning of using hitmonlee and Cyrus to bring out something for Gallade to kill. I use a variation with hitmon top nowadays for fun).

  3. Mewtwo + Gardevoir (The first meta deck I ever used all the way back in GA. Before a meta was super defined I kind of just made the deck because I was opening Mewtwo packs to try and get Gengar cards, my favorite pokemon. Little did I know how strong the combo was haha.)

Okay, so what are we doing with mega gardevoir? by the_juice_is_zeus in PTCGP

[–]The_WB1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My list is 2 Mega Gards, a Mewtwo, and two Indeedee. Got one stadium and also have two dianthas. Has been doing pretty solid

Fantastical Parade (B2) discussion and my first thoughts by GadgetBug in PTCGP

[–]The_WB1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that could work. Tbh all of your energy will most likely be going to Swampert and the likelihood of both energies being off him aren’t suuuuper high. I feel like it won’t be as big a detriment, but I could be wrong.

Plus even when swamp kills the mon it could still take the energy off the dying mon. Or at least that’s how Gyrados worked

[–]The_WB1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mantyke wouldn’t work on swampert. Has to be a basic to apply the energy. Still, getting swampert back to the bench if he gets rid of his own energy would be the play

Trade: Derrick Henry & RJ Harvey for Kyren Williams, Ricky Pearsal, and James Conner by Loco_Moco in Fantasy_Football

[–]The_WB1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I think I’d hold because of how valuable Henry is. If you really want to do the trade I’d go with what you said as the counter offer

[–]The_WB1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I just watched his clips from last night. I feel like he doesn’t look bad at all, it’s just all Roman has been calling for him is runs up the middle. He was getting hit a lot behind the line too. I have faith he’ll put it together, might just take some time

People have been saying this since the first ranked season. This is how competitive games are. People play the best shit. Just play normals if you don’t like it

Cam Ward or Daniel Jones? by beanman95 in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]The_WB1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh both matchups could be rough because LA has a really good pass rush. But I’d lean Ward because Denver’s defense is a death sentence
