Been thinking of trying a meme deck with the three Kecleon once they all come out after rotation. Both the PES and DFY Kecleon can hit weakness for 220 on those types against GXs if you have a choice band (and Diancie Prism out for DFY). The GRW Kecleon provides little help, but can probably be supplemented with another main attacker anyway.

Which version of the Kalos cards should I collect? I was going down the list, by Dex order, but decided to stop while still on the starters because I just can't get into these 5ban Graphics cards. I originally intended on building my collection with the earliest versions of each mon's card (in this case, starting with the original XY expansion set), but now I'm not too sure. Maybe I should go for the BREAKthrough set instead.

>>36216905 Except their reasoning for it was shit. "stifles creativity" is a weasel term for when you can't think of an actual reason why the card is broken, and if they're banning cards because they disrupt your opponent before they even get to draw a card then they will have to ban the following
>Delinquent >Team Skull Grunt >Judge >N >Ilima >Mars >others But no, random discards, hitting DCE / strong energy / beast energy / etc, shuffling a hand of six or more down to four or forcing your opponent to discardd 3 cards aren't a problem due to [completely unspecified reasoning] then I, nor anyone else who pays attention to Expanded knows what to say about this.
Either way, expect Battle Compressor, Dimensional Valley and some other random cards to be banned next, because it's far easier to start banning countless cards than just tackle the Zoroark / Trevenant problem directly. Because banning all these other cards doesn't "stifle creativity" at all.

Of course it was printed in BREAKpoint AKA the set where logic, thought and reasoning wasn't applied to anything they made.
Hex maniac ban also made sense but they should have said it was just no-investment ability lock anything can use to effortlessly lock out a game instead of this "stifles creativity" bollocks because if they're going to use that as an excuse they should be banning Zoroark and Trevenant because nothing "stifles creativity" more than that pair of obnoxious stat + game state checks.
Wally and Ghetsis ban were completely retarded - one is a general use supporter where Trevenant is the problem (as the upcoming DValley ban will repeat) and the other had no actual reason to be banned under any circumstances.

>>36217416 >>36217476 >they can single handedly brick your opponent before they take their first turn, not just for simply disrupting your opponent's hand. None of the cards you listed can do that on the first turn of the game For Ghetsis to do that you need a very specific set of conditions to take place which at that point isn't even a problem with the card, rather the random chance of it happening which is a pretty long shot unless you run a stupidly low supporter count or you're on the bottom tables to the point where people are not only running Ghetsis, but multiple copies to see it first turn when after that Ghetsis is just a discard to ultra ball as the most practical use for it.
Because if we're talking magical christmas land chances, judge can reshuffle you down to 4 useless cards, ilima down to 3, mars hits your only draw supporter and leaves you with a dead hand, delinquent leaves you between a rock and a very hard place and the rest well I don't need to knock em out one by one.

Even if your opponent only loses 1-3 items it still means they aren’t going to playing Ultra ball, trainer mail, battle compressor, etc. The only out to Ghetsis is to have a draw supporter or set up Pokémon like Shaymin or Lele in your opening hand already. Unlike judge where as long as you got one of you many item cards you should be fine

I wish September would hurry up and happen. I started this game in April so I specifically bought for newer cards than the packs from older sets, but the deck ideas all want to use the old stuff for as long as possible. So right now no one's got ideas I can reasonably start getting cards for.

>>36218871 It could be a great surprise deck if the opponents run no non-gx attackers (e.g. stand-in Zoroark, ability Mewtwo, baby buzz, trashalanche etc) but Garbotoxin is really popular and most top tier decks will get a lightning fast setup compared to your average ninetales deck. Baby Buzz is 100% gonna see play and in multiple copies per buzz list, has support out the ass and ninetales just cannot go toe to toe with it. To be honest you're better off playing Hoopa (same output but it's a basic, same ability, max elixirable, nukes dawn wings with a choice band, Psychic resistance is handy af). Ninetales hits what? Volcanion for weakness? And who's playing Volcanion these days?
TLDR;
>Can catch GX meta with its pants down >BUT shitawful damage output compared to everything popular that isn't a GX >Baby buzz fucks it raw >Play Hoopa Anonymous

>>36222745 I have it, and I will say, I absolutely LOVE the Wildcard feature. It's an interesting and surprisingly well-made alternative to trading for what you want.
If you don't have a card, you can try and put it in anyways, and it'll ask to consume a wildcard of that value. These wildcards can be unpacked at the same rarity as an actual card of the same value, **AND** you get Uncommon, Rare, and Mythic Rares at a set number of unpacks, so it just becomes a question of opening enough packs to get a drop, not necessarily being forced to wait until you unpack one.

Going to space them out instead of going super fast from now on.
>>36222990 yeah, you've probably got a point but i don't wanna post like 10 codes at once, i'll burn through codes way too quick that way.
But i will do them in intervals of two so we can hopefully have some of you get them before lurkers nab them and see how that goes.
