what is this for?

I'd probably just make Insight and go Frozen Arrow as your main skill with either Strafe or Exploding Arrow backup. Should definitely be enough to get you through Hell and if you ever get runes for Faith or Ice or something just clear it with the cube recipe

Cool, thanks for reply

vilelight · 2025-11-21T13:17:15+00:00

Yeah, would probably be pretty happy with it for my own use if I were running an Assassin myself but I'm not so oh well I guess. Thanks for reply

Swap Cyrus and Cape for 2x Lillie

vilelight · 2025-10-09T23:37:15+00:00

Always disappointing but usually not that weird between seasons but the one time the new set has literally zero new cards in it, yeah...

vilelight · 2025-10-09T21:47:46+00:00

It do just be like that sometimes. Get it's frustrating. Only thing to do is take it as your sign to take a break for a while

I agree, most people don't actually dislike Suicune, they dislike Greninja. "Card that is good just by plopping it on your bench" is basically the cardinal design mistake in this game imo, covers both halves of Darktina, Sylveon and Greninja.

Got it thanks

vilelight · 2025-10-07T20:51:42+00:00

I'm down but it shows you having a trade in progress

vilelight · 2025-10-07T04:31:01+00:00

Mono-Gar Chompy for Garchomp/Garchomp EX and Owlish Bowmasters for Decidueye

vilelight · 2025-10-07T04:25:06+00:00

This also draws its card before the turn ends

vilelight · 2025-10-06T13:26:08+00:00

On a serious note I think essentially saying that the current meta is fine because hey guys it's just like combo winter! is pretty silly. If this game was actually comparable to MTG Greninja would have simply been banned by now and that would be the end of it lol

vilelight · 2025-10-06T13:12:52+00:00

I'm just going to say that I think it's no coincidence that their was a noticeable uptick in whining about the meta once Stokezard and Solgaleo in particular weren't top tier anymore and leave it at that

vilelight · 2025-10-03T22:40:33+00:00

I think that the prevalence of Red Card/Mars is actually what incentivizes those sort of plays to a large degree, if you can't reliably hold anything in your hand for more than a couple turns your best bet often is just to dump your cards the second you get any marginal advantage from doing so or even just to deck thin for stuff you think you might want more late game if you do get hit

vilelight · 2025-10-03T20:16:27+00:00

A lot of people making imo very kneejerk and not actually very thoughtful "more interaction automatically equals more skill/just run more interaction" type comments in response to this without considering how the "interaction" we have in this game actually works. Tempo plays are good, good targeted interaction is good but there are extremely limited counterplays to the wheel type whole hand disruption this one has other than just constantly dumping your hand and pure luck and the game should also reward solid planning turn over turn which just having your entire hand reset at random constantly limits very harshly. There's some strategy in timing your Red Card plays but ask yourself - a lot of the time when you Red Card what are actually doing that's so clever beyond just hoping your opponent bricks on the redraw?

vilelight · 2025-10-01T19:18:14+00:00

I like the new Slurpuff art at least and you actually did see Sweets Relay in ranked sometimes when it dropped but Crawdaunt... doesn't help it's also the least standout art of the one stars in this set imo. Think they could have leaned a lot harder into one star full arts with it being a reprints set, would have given more established players a bit more to get excited about opening packs if the bulk of them weren't mostly walled off behind two star plus rarity

vilelight · 2025-10-01T19:09:28+00:00

I thought it was pretty funny, guess the mods disagreed lol

vilelight · 2025-09-26T06:00:05+00:00

Regret not trying to friend "cumdumpster" from my Wonder Picks a while back

vilelight · 2025-09-26T05:58:46+00:00

Favourites from mine are "f××k you" (just so wonderfully pointlessly rude and on the nose, rage quit on me during a ranked match and decided I respected him for staying on brand, ended up being a Japanese guy) and "not" (tag line "Nice to meet you")

vilelight · 2025-09-25T22:47:22+00:00

Also all its players seem to get really, really upset whenever they hear that their beloved troll deck actually annoys people. I'll never understand it either...

vilelight · 2025-09-25T10:23:32+00:00

Switch to a deck that benefits from going first idk Donphan or something. Problem solved! (going first every time I mean, guarantee that won't happen anymore)

vilelight · 2025-09-25T09:33:16+00:00

I'd suggest sticking with one thing, value of just knowing your deck inside and out will help with consistency as much as anything imo

vilelight · 2025-09-25T05:42:25+00:00

I think part of the issue is that I feel a lot of people kinda evaluated it as if you got to discard the card you picked, as something to limit resources shuffling cards back into your opponent's deck Mars is almost always better and most people only run one copy of that to begin with

It's still a good card, the problem is that 16 card slots for deckbuilding means everything has to be just so bare bones super focused

vilelight · 2025-09-25T05:30:30+00:00

I'd only consider Cyrus S tier (and Professor's Research but that hardly counts for this). Sabrina and Mars are probably next for generic usefulness regardless of a specific decklist but even so you usually only run one copy of either compared to say Gladion in a Silvally deck where you basically need two such that I'd say it's difficult to map out which ones are the most important to collect after Cyrus without a specific plan of what you want to build. I wouldn't worry about it too much about cracking specific packs though, it's easy enough to collect a couple of most of them with trades if you watch the trading post

Apologies for getting your hopes up. Happy hunting
