My T8 Regirock/Sableye from Dallas, Ideas for Adapting It to BLW–SSH (for Collinsville), and a Sword & Shield Set Review “Michael Catron sent me a list that he had just thought of on Thursday morning, and after talking about it some, I was very intrigued by it and decided that I would put all the time I had before Dallas into testing the deck and optimizing the list. I only made a few changes to the list he sent me because I was unable to even begin testing the deck until Friday at around noon, but the changes I did make likely made the difference between a very good finish and an alright one. In my testing, we were consistently…
Primal Groudon in Dallas, Bans in Expanded, and Swampert in Standard (Pre-Team Up) “I’m trying to think of another deck that has had such longevity in the field of viability, and I’m drawing a blank. There have been no Regionals since the initial rise of Primal Groudon that I feel the deck has been utterly unplayable. Dallas was no exception to this. We saw a few vastly different takes on the deck this past weekend, all of them viable in their own right. My build was built more as an attacking–mill-style deck, whereas the others we saw focused more on healing their Groudon rather than alternate attackers. Hours of testing with my friend,…
A Review of Night March for Dallas and Ultra Prism Discussion “Listed above is the same 60 card list that Azul Garcia Griego, Michael Pramawat, and Rahul Reddy played to take 3/4 top spots. It’s quite telling that they collaborated and played the exact same list, other than Juniper/Sycamore discrepancies if you count those. There’s nothing too interesting with the list. They decided to keep the deck core together and slip in a 2-2 Zoroark-GX for added consistency throughout the game. Trade is excellent for discarding Night Marchers, unwanted cards, and general fodder throughout the game. Zoroark-GX is also great for tackling Seismitoad-EX, Trevenant BREAK, and Oricorio: Pokemon that feed off…
A Look at 10 Different Deck Choices for the Upcoming Winter Regional Championships and Primal Clash Favorites “Quaking in My Boots Seismitoad/Slurpuff Seismitoad/Yveltal Time to Go “Turbo” Manectric/Seismitoad/Drifblim Manectric/Pyroar “Repel’s Effect Wore Off” Landorus/Crobat Mewtwo/Crobat/Wobbuffet Wiley Old Veterans Virizion/Genesect/Drifblim Donphan/Hawlucha New Kids on the Block Bronzong/Dialga/Aegislash Yveltal/Hard Charm Primal Instincts Conclusion This deck is fairly new around the tournament scene and has made quite the splash during City Championships. I piloted a list that was three cards off the one presented above and made top 8 at the first tournament of the Georgia Marathon. From personal experience with the deck, it is an extremely competitive choice that is possibly one of the most annoying things to play…
Regionals Reflections and XY Predictions “Virginia Regionals A Need for Speed Thoughts for Florida The Finest of XY Updating the Old New School vs. Old School Conclusion Heading into my last weekend before Virginia Regionals, I attended a pair of City Championships, placing 5th and 1st. My 5th place finish was with RayBoar and my win was with TDK. During the days between then and Regionals, I was certain I’d be playing the Plasma deck in Virginia. However, much to my dismay, I began to hear about a large amount of Plasma hate due to the success Lugia/Snorlax/Thundurus (“The Yeti”) was beginning to have. I put the…
