Latias & Latios-GX/Malamar and Buzzwole/Garbodor for Toronto “I believe in the potential of Latias & Latios-GX in Expanded for a few reasons (and it might even have some merit in Standard too in the near future): 250 HP means it’s out of Zoroark-GX range. Buster Purge deals 240 damage, which can OHKO Pikachu & Zekrom-GX precisely, and also deal with every other GX seeing play (except for Magikarp & Wailord-GX and its humongous 300 HP). Finally, the most interesting aspect of this card in Expanded is that it can make use of Double Dragon Energy, meaning Buster Purge can be used for 3 Energy cards (Double Dragon…
It sends electricity through its legs to boost their strength. Running at top speed, it easily breaks 50 mph. (Boltund)
How to Get the Most out of Your Tournament Experience “Tournament success comes from many different variables ranging from pre-tournament playtesting to in-game mental focus. I’ve come up with five specific keys to having success at a tournament. 1. Test, Test, Test Testing is one of the most important parts of playing Pokemon because there are so many variations of deck lists as well as an abundance of decks themselves. Going tier 1 is fine, but making sure that you know your matchups is important. A good list can only get you so far. A key to testing is finding a deck you like and playing with it over and…
The Beginnings of Eelektrik and the HS-NVI Format “However, Eel decks weren’t without their weaknesses. Alongside Donphan Prime, Terrakion NVI was birthed in the same set. An effective foil to our electric hero, Terrakion NVI provided quick, effective, and at times, blindsiding answers to most of the main attackers that became partners for Eelektrik. Zekrom BLW, Magnezone Prime, and Lanturn Prime, all bit the dust in one hit from Terrakion. One particularly familiar (and fun) deck that could pose a threat to Magnezone was based on Electrode Prime and multiple different attackers like Terrakion. There have been other Electrode cards in the past that could blow up for…
A 2014 New England States and Spring Regionals Rewind “Okay, first, let’s take a trip back in time. It’s the second week of States, mid-March, and the world is still frozen. It feels as though an entire season has come and gone since. I had just barely missed cut in Rhode Island with Yveltal/Garbodor. I played a list almost identical to that of my Complaint Box allies, SixPrizes’ own Ray Cipoletti and Chris Murray (who doesn’t belong to SixPrizes, but is equally cool). Chris ended up winning the event, felling a fellow side of the Box, Jon Bristow, in the finals. Instead of giving the list I played in Rhode…
Known as a legendary hero, this Pokémon absorbs metal particles, transforming them into a weapon it uses to battle. (Zacian)
Out in T64 of the Players Cup, Thoughts on the Event, and a Darkness Ablaze Set Review “For those of you who follow me on Twitter, you already know that I’m no longer in the event, and it is somewhat ambiguous if I’m even allowed to publish my list yet, but it’s 2 cards off from the list I published a while back. I went into the event knowing that no matter what deck I played my run would be determined by the matchups I would hit. So, me being me, I decided that taking a very mediocre PikaRom matchup was somehow a good idea. For four whole rounds, my rather unintelligent view was valid. LucaMetal/Zacian pretty…
Cunning and cautious, this Pokémon survives by stealing food from others. It erases its tracks with swipes of its tail as it makes off with its plunder. (Nickit)
