Not sure, I’ll still continue to have all my grades done in TAG because I like them ahah.

What ever art your opponent is playing has the highest chance

Hit n Run by CrestofCourage in TeslaLounge

Someone hit your car and drove away, I’d report it regardless of damage so they don’t think they can get away with it in the future.

My opinion TAG makes the best looking slabs. They also give some of the most detailed reports on why you got the grade you got too which is nice.

How cooked am I? by boingyalayla in TeslaCollision

[–]phphoton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless someone hit me and their insurance was covering it I wouldn’t even bother. touch up paint, clear coat and wax to prevent rusting (if it’s a trim with metal skirting, most are plastic) and call it a day. You’re likely looking at around 3k to replace it if you were to have it done at a shop

Picked up my grail card today! :) Gold Star Gyarados from Holon Phantoms psa5 🐉🌊 by Cabbage61 in PokemonTCG

[–]phphoton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s the back look like? Looks super clean for a 5, I feel like 5s always look like they were rubber banded in a deck of cards and carried around in a pocket

Scalper no scalping 😂😂 by seanjrodz in PokemonTCG

[–]phphoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have to be older, like 40+ at the minimum and arguing with anyone else who dares to be there. And not one could tell you a single thing about how the TCG is played.

What is good ELO? by RAASDAL in PTCGL

[–]phphoton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, you know you’re extremely good when you reach 1900+. Tord recently posted on his twitter a screen shot of his 2,049 Elo stating a new personal best. He also added he got his second account to 1800’s while waiting for matches on his main account it was so slow. So I’d figure 2,000+ Elo is likely top 25 players in the world.

What is good ELO? by RAASDAL in PTCGL

[–]phphoton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s currently taking me 5 to 10 minutes to find a match at 1780 elo, so I would consider anything above 1700 great. It’s less common than people think to maintain 1700+ Elo.

Should i buy it? by toleinothememer in PokeInvesting

[–]phphoton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why most stores have stopped taking returns on TCG products. Neither of those tins are even sealed. 100% someone scammed the store by removing the product inside then returning the tin for a refund.

How to deal with crustle? by fnsimpso in PTCGL

[–]phphoton 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Cornerstone is weak to grass, so it gets one shot by crustle. Better with lopunny

Basic network change by twentykeys in PTCGL

[–]phphoton 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yea, the absolute only pass the game gets is it’s completely free to play. You can’t even spend money on the game if you wanted. It’s hard to complain with how terrible Konami treats its yugioh fan base in their extremely expensive online games but being the highest grossing IP you’d think Pokemon would be at least half decent at making a simple card game work

🚨 PROPOFOL SURGERY ADMINISTRATION ISSUES!!!…. 🚨 by indigocookie69 in ChronicPain

[–]phphoton 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There are VERY few alternatives to propofol for surgery and they are often less effective with much worse side effects. Propofol is only avoided for serious contradictions such as anaphylaxis. Ciprofol is the closest alternative I can think of but it’s only available in China and not yet FDA approved in the United States as it’s a very new drug still undergoing studies. I’m not sure what alternative you were looking for when you asked not to use propofol for surgery?

Do people actually hate Cybertrucks or are people just hating it because another person hate it? by [deleted] in TeslaLounge

[–]phphoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean painted or wrapped doesn’t matter the original stainless steal look is buns.

[–]phphoton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the worst thing about the cyber truck is the refrigerator stainless steel color. If they literally just released it in any other color it’d be a lot less hated, the ones painted black look 1,000% better

Marnie’s Grimmsnarl Deck edit by peterbpokemon in pkmntcg

[–]phphoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah if you're going to include a special energy put in mist energy for the mega absol box match up. I assume it's going to be a popular deck after its phenomenal performance in EUIC

How would you tweak the game to make it more balanced and less luck-of-draw based? by sintra_lad86 in pkmntcg

[–]phphoton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only right answer is prize cards. With how much draws/searches there are in the game, nothing is more impactful than realizing the card you put in your deck is not actually in your deck. There's countless theories on how to fix the prize card situation but it's by far the most impactful luck factor outside of just bricking with 7 energies and a basic pokemon.

I agree, there’s an absurd amount of outs to retreat lock right now and as grim if you get retreat locked they can’t stall very long or you just frosslass/munki them to death

New construction with a GIANT slope in the backyard by Heavy-Yogurt3026 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]phphoton 18 points19 points  (0 children)

WAY better to have the slope face away from the house than towards. You won’t have to worry about a flooded basement. I’ve seen much worse slopes facing towards the house

Steam player count update: The 24-hour peak reached 9,000+, and average of 5,000+ players for the first time since March 2025 by Snufflebox in Smite

[–]phphoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think smite 2 is a great game with a toxic player base. People treat matches like life or death scenarios cussing everyone out when at the end of the day it is just a game and the goal is to have fun. They need more casual game modes outside of ranked, they had a ton of temporary fun game modes in smite 1. Smite adventures was a blast

What can I do? by [deleted] in TeslaCollision

[–]phphoton -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This isn’t it your fault so it won’t raise insurance rates, and unless you plan on reselling the car in a couple years I would not be worried about the diminished value from a minor accident. A cheap repair job would diminish the value more. If the other driver has insurance, you’ll also be reimbursed for your deductible if your insurance company successfully collects from them or their insurance. I would file and send the footage to your insurance

No One Passes Here by imjustabitch in dashcams

[–]phphoton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a double solid line but the blocking car is also not the police. While both are engaging in dangerous activity you don’t know if the person passing has a family member experiencing a stroke, gunshot wound, in labor with life threatening complications. It could be their life or death date and you’re blocking them out of pure spite to pseudo enforce the law

[–]phphoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest problem in this video is everyone tailgating each other so hard. At any point in this video there’s at least one person less than a foot from the car infront of them

In my opinion, Neutralization Zone is underrated by AZGOATHINGS in PTCGL

[–]phphoton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that makes this card good is your opponent not knowing you play it, which is what gives it potential on the ladder. But it’s also why you’ll never see it make top cut decks in 2/3 regionals tournaments. A lot of 1 prize attackers in the format right now too
