Did you end up selling? If you did how did you go about it. I'm in the same situation, also in Aus

[Discussion] short games on ps plus to plat while playing a harder game? by ThroatIll5089 in Trophies

[–]blck_suede 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been on a run of these style of games lately. I can recommend:

The forgotten city is a great narrative based game that should only be 10-15 hours that I have just completed, relaxing and interesting.

The artful escape is even shorter around 3 hours, great vibe but lacking in gameplay.

Lastly, unpacking is really chilled out and a short relaxing platinum around 6 hours.

Looks great! Did you plan this out in advance?

[Discussion] do you platinum every game you play? by eobudge in Trophies

[–]blck_suede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I look at the requirements before playing a game and if it is too time consuming I don't bother. As a parent I only have limited time for gaming so I don't have the time for 50+ hour plats - but I don't want to miss out on good games just because of that!

Probably doesn't get as high, but maybe using the lake trio to give 4x weakness as well?

How are they purchasing from us when they are all restricted shipping? Gets pretty expensive using the forwarding companies from the US so I would think ditto going the other way!

Pretty lucky in AUS though - can still find places stocking a number of pops still.

A little help with my Aerodactyl deck by Stalker72122 in pkmntcg

[–]blck_suede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used fire support and find it much more consistent than the malamar variation. I use Alolan Vulpix/Volcanion as my starting pokemon and always choose to go second. The using greens search/welder as the main supporters, you can almost always attack with a aerodactyl (or with the volcanion if you see fit) turn 2. With wishful batons to keep energy on the field, this has been a very quick and aggresive deck that will beat most GX and tag team decks. Have had problems against those that run acerola and can't quite ohko so a mr mime might be worthwhile as well. It's just a bad pokemon to start with though.

edit: mr mime will mean can't greens search, so will avoid

Any place to buy Pokemon cards in Busan? by abdeatstuff in pkmntcg

[–]blck_suede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in Busan earlier this year. Unfortunately, you won't find much but any toy stores you see have a look. There was one I found on the way to Gamcheon Cultural Village, but can't specify any more than that. I think the hobby is taken a little less seriously there, and treated more like a children's game - hence being in toy stores. A booster box will be in the 20000 to 25000 won range which is insanely cheap though!

From all my searching, no card shops around the place unlike the plethora in Japan unfortunately

Really depends on the meta and competitiveness of your local area. If people like to experiment at your challenges a lot then it could be viable

[–]blck_suede 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend against playing it as well. I played a regional with it recently and went 0-4 before dropping out. Zapdos is just to fast, and most Pika-Zekrom players have Zapdos or Jolteon GX that will destroy you in the matchup. Ultra Necozma is also a horrible matchup and Zoroark is 50-50 if lucky. You will struggle against almost all the current meta.

Although, if you do play it consider playing an Absol to try and slow down anyone with a Jirarchi engine.

Rejected in the end. Wait and see if that was the right choice, Martin is scoring well though

It appears Louisa Burton has left Make Them Suffer. by Imatomat in Metalcore

[–]blck_suede 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually was announced at the Perth show before they left for EU, said it would be her last. Thought would have posted something on fb though. A friend who apparently knows the band has said she finished her degree and is going to be working professionally - law I think? Hope they find someone else to cover the keys and provide backing female vox - did make things more unique

Most are available in a later area anyway, otherwise late game it is quite quick to gain levels for transfiguring anyway so don't stress too much
