All these Pokemon with 250+ HP that accelerate energy and OHKO 90% of single prizers on the second turn of the game are vomit-inducing.

the real problem is that a lot of these things just can't be answered.
if ADP or lucmetal use their extremely cheap GX moves that last all game, there's nothing you can do about it. there is no ranger effect. and if your deck revolves around gx/v pokemon you just autolose to decigoons. they know this which is why they're printing phoebe but that means until these cards are released you just suffer.

It’s not the best time to get into the game, but it’s the best time to buy competitive singles for the game. Collectorshit, Shinycrap and Chartards are expensive, but one trainer toolkit can get you most of the trainers you need to play, and Crobat V is literally only like $10 rn. If you are interested in expanded, stuff like computer search is only $20, which is historically low. Since nobody is allowed to play IRL right now, it’s the best time to buy all your “meta” cards. I assure you when things finally open back up, meta card prices will begin to climb again.

I can post my donk list if you'd like, but the one that I'd recommend the most is Pheromosa donk, as it has most damage that Latios donk once you take into account beast energy. The Shaymin ban really did hurt the deck, but I've found that there's rarely a scenario where you really needed the extra draw. You either obviously have the win, or youre going to fall way too short.

My god, you guys are a bunch of babies. All of them will rotate this year anyway, including Welder, Saucer etc.

ADP does not dominate the tournament scene as much as you'd think. Yes, you have to adjust your deck in case you encounter one of them, but same goes for all the other top tier decks. The one legit criticism for ADP specifically is that it invalidates most one prizer decks.

That's how every tcg works. You always have to adjust your decks to the current meta and the most dominant decks. Yes, the game has become too fast due to acceleration and attacks/abilities like altered creation. That's also why hammer is so prevalent now, to slow the game down again.

But look at the cards released in the swsh era so far. Once tag teams and welder are gone, they game will slow down significantly, unless they come up with something similar again for the upcoming sets. Without Welder, ADP, Mew3 and PikaRom, the game will be completely different. Take Boltund from Rebel Clash or Frosmoth for example: They also accelerate energy, but they don't do it for free. It either comes as an attack or you have to evolve Snom first and are limited to the bench. This seems to be their new way of incorporating this mechanic into the game. The new Cherrim also has the limitation of only being able to accelerate to non-rule box pokemon for example.

frosmoth is fucking gay and I can't believe you'd use it as an example of them doing it right
>it just sits there giving you infinite energy the rest of the game looool acceleration is balanced
acceleration should be the most limited part of any card game because it's letting you turn skip and it's supposed to be punished by big tempo loss, only in pokemon tcg the tempo loss is 1 turn max and in return you get infinite value. we have single prize pokemon decks that can deal 120-200 damage consistently for 1 but it doesn't matter because
>the HP floor for a playable pokemon is now over 200
>they can attack for 200 immediately
>they aren't even slower in exchange for the stats, due to acceleration
>ADP lets them win the prize trade against single prize decks for 2 energy and that move curves right into another move that can KO any single prizer
>lucmetal can literally prevent your opponent from being able to do anything significant so just the mere existence of lucmetal means anything competitive against it has to overcome a 30 damage handicap, necessitating even higher power
>no ranger effects to counter any of these game-altering abilities
>these pokemon actually get buffs like goggles and saucer, and zacian v but looool it's fine it's balanced zacian just sits on the bench ramping itself and you end your turn... only it's such a strong ability people run it in decks where it can't even attack
this game is fucking broken because it's pushed too high everywhere and something has to give for them to lower the floor. and they need to do shit to show the players that they are doing it, not stay silent so you can sit in the dark inhaling fucking hopium. you're kicking the can down the road.

I never said "wait it out", because I don't think ADP is such a dominating force in the meta, that there's no way around it. There are several decks that beat it regularly. I am also not a fan of the card (or the combination with Zacian to be more precise), because it makes many decks basically unusable, but it's not broken. It just made the game very boring.

>>46095040
Frosmoth IS the way to do energy acceleration right. It's a stage 1 with low hp and a shitty attack that can get knocked out easily with Boss and has a clear drawback by only being able to accelerate onto the bench. Once Frosmoth gets knocked out, it severely impacts your deck's flow. The same can't be said for Intrepid Sword, Tag Bolt and Welder.

And I don't agree with the statement that pokemon with lower hp than 200 are unplayable when decks like Mad Party and DeciGoons exist.

no, frosmoth is awful. boss check pokemon that overrun you with infinite momentum if you can't boss them out are awful. that kind of "do you have it or do you lose?" gameplay shouldn't be accepted. frosmoth is also literally stupid because you can attach, then play something like research and then attach again. it requires no thought. at least they should make it so you can only attach in one go, not whenever you feel like it.

Gusting is one of the staples of this game. That question is irrelevant for every good deck. Putting stuff like Frosmoth, Dedenne etc. on your bench is always a risk, because of boss, spread, sniping attacks etc. I really don't see how Frosmoth can be considered broken. It's so easy to get rid of it and then the deck usually falters.

if you get rid of energy acceleration altogether there will be an even bigger need to draw as many cards as possible each turn.

>I really don't see how Frosmoth can be considered broken
it's a card where once you had it, they can mindlessly dump energy however they want, with zero restriction, all game long. dedenne and crobat, which you brought up, are not as bad because while powerful they can only be used once per turn, and once you use them they just sit there dead, they don't become infinite value engines that accelerate you to alpha centauri. that other guy or you said that it's fine because there is no broken water attacker to take advantage of, but that just proves how frosmoth is dumb. it's a broken enabler looking for a broken enablee, it will either break a deck or water is going to suck, on purpose, because they are scared of giving frosmoth a best friend.
you say that you always have to be scared of getting gusted but there is a difference between being able to gust out a weak, dead support mon for the win, and having to gust out a 1prizer or else you just fucking lose on the spot because they can stack 10 energy in 1 turn between 3 actions across their whole bench. frosmoth is extremely poor design.

Aren't all trading card broken by design? You're always just looking for a broken combo to circumvent the "rules" of the game. If every pokemon would just do attacks without any side effects or other abilities the game would just be decided who has more luck at drawing cards.

I don't play other tcgs as much as pokemon, but from what I hear pokemon seems still relatively balanced.

then there are broken threats, broken enablers, broken engines. something could be broken but there is no deck to take advantage of the brokenness so it just sits there waiting to take a fat brap in expanded a year down the line or something. something could be broken but have no synergies so you're going all in and sometimes it's not enough.
what unifies all of this is that brokenness is a result of poor design and that's what frosmoth is. frosmoth is not going to show up #1 in a bunch of tournaments, there is no s tier frosmoth deck, but it's shit design.

Literally nobody considers Gusting a drawback of Dedenne GX, Crobat V or Frostmoth, nobody gives a shit about the "risk" attached to breaking the Supporter mechanic or getting infinite acceleration. You could use this excuse for any effect, even the most broken one.
The idea that Frostmoth isn't a broken design, because there currently aren't any insanely broken water VMAXes is such a basic bitch analysis it's not even worth taking seriously. Welder would still be a retarded card, even if the format had no viable Fire Pokemon.

Pic related should be the limit of Trainer acceleration. This anon >>46095040 is correct in that acceleration has to be designed deliberately, otherwise the whole concept of "attack costs" as a drawback means jack shit.

All of these draw supporter Pokémon are a liability and full up bench space. How can you not consider this a risk with adp around? It doesn’t come out of nowhere that adp is usually also running Mawile gx.

It never stopped anyone from playing Crobat V in their deck, ever. At best, you can call it a gameplay dynamic. The fact that they take up bench space is more of a drawback, it's a really shitty design of a drawback and it just makes decks more streamlined, with less attacking options.
ADP shouldn't be a factor when judging the design of any single card, nor should any other card. Their relation to game mechanics is what makes them broken or not and yes, invalidating the entire mechanic with infinite acceleration is broken. "It's not good in today's format" isn't an excuse, that just means today's format is even more broken than that.

The brainrot you have to have for an opinion like that.
Also, everyone that has even a bit of experience with the game can tell you that this game was powercreped more between Lost Thunder and today than in the history of the game. Nobody wants to go back to Base Set and revisit the basic of the game (even though a couple of these basics are also pretty broken), they just want to go back to first half of S&M and continue from there.

What's the difference between a 100 hp pokemon doing 80 damage and a 300 hp pokemon doing 240 damage? Power creep is only really noticeable in expanded and beyond and even then in a way it helps to keep those formats fresh. The games biggest problem in my opinion is that not every type is treated with the same level love by the creators. In the current format fire, electric and metal are so obviously getting special treatment, which invalidates like half of the other types.

Because the former still exist and the latter are erroneously "balanced" by the multiprize mechanic.
But that doesn't take into account that giving away two prizes isn't enough of a drawback to have 2x or 3x the stats. These Pokemon still take 2x/3x less resources in cards, energy, etc.
To be truly balanced, an EX/GX would have to deal 1/2 of the damage for the same Energy cost.

What is Rose. What is using Power Accelerator turn one to put an energy onto your second Eternatus V on the bench. If Dark had energy acceleration, Eternatus would be retardedly broken. But you can always play Hydreigon or Weavile GX with Red&Blue if you want some acceleration. Eternatus just needs bench fillers anyway.

Except it wouldn't. If you're not Weldering to a viable fire type (the optimal Welder target in any situation), it becomes a glorified Hop. Awesome, you powered up a meh attacker. Much game breaking. Very wow. If you can't handle facing energy acceleration decks then maybe the theme format is more your speed. Or better yet, fuck off.

You do realize attacking is also a resource? Not that any Volcanion is particularly great design, but you're not going to attach three energies to a single Pokemon, get to use them in an attack the same turn and draw three cards on top of that.

That's actually far less offensive than Frosmoth or Welder because it has to attack to attach the energies, and you can only attach 2 maximum, from your discard pile, and only one on each pokemon that has to be on the bench. Once you attack this thing's ass is wide open to being revenge killed and at 20 damage it's threatening nothing.
Meanwhile Frosmoth can just sit there on the bench attaching infinite amounts of energy however you choose 1000 times in a single turn, and Welder accelerates any target hugely while also drawing you cards.

Why do you have the delusion that Frosmoth is this broken must-be-banned demon? The decks that need it are barely tier 3 at best. It has to evolve from a very fragile basic, it has to be consistently searched for to make the deck pose a threat, it has to survive on the bench withoutbeing gutted or sniped or whatever, it's two prizes for ADP, it can't defend itself with attacks in desperate situations, if the copies are prized the player is likely fucked, and on average there'll probably be maybe 4 energy in your hand tops unless you brick hard. There are far bigger fish to fry pal.

Bro this game fucking sucks

I tried it for the first time ever and and just stalled out a win because turn 1 I had a 200hp pokemon and kept stacking hp and debuff counters forcing him to focus on his bench evolutions while I did the same. Shit was like the Cold war except my bench was more stacked.

Literally stalled him for the win and neither of us attacked.

you have to have energy in hand, and unlike grave recovery, it takes a certain ammount of focus to be able to do so continously to fire off powerful attackers - there's a reason Deluge Blastoise runs a good number of Superior Energy Retrieval, Fisherman and cards like this.

They have to learn what a real Pokémon TCG match is like. When I was in highschool I used a bunch of DPP cards in a "water poison stall" deck and got stomped hard by a Victini EX deck; that opened my eyes and made me a better player in the long run.

Ninja boy lets you get any basic out into the play area while instantly getting any resources you want onto it.

How is that even remotely the same? Using Ninja Boy to instantly meet a higher attack cost is converting your commitment to Energy attachments into something completely different. Quick Ball getting a 1 Energy attacker requires the conditions you need to use it, like having the Special Energy in hand, or having the Bench space or whatever specific attacking requirements they need. If they Quick Ball a Nihilego and you have more than 2 Prizes, you can plan not to take Prizes that leave you at 2. If they Quick Ball a Necrozma and can't attach, you have to prioritize KOing Garbodor or using blower to get rid of the air balloon or silent lab. So on and so forth.

so what's exactly your argument you fucking retard? You want to play a format that has never existed. Energy accel, prize denial and gust have coexisted in this game for its entire existence. You clearly don't like this game, and you will never like it, you're the same retard that argued that Frosmoth was broken some days ago.

Simply fuck off instead of shitting up the thread.

There is a big difference between Tage 1 and stage 2. You are ignoring a lot of things to just keep pushing this argument that because it has been around a long time it's OK. Nobody has an issue with gusting either so I don't know why you are trying to push BS equivalencies nobody brought up

I'm sure when Richard Garfield came up with the idea of rotation to eliminate previous mistakes and limit the powercreep, some dude at the WOTC company that was equally retarded to you came up and said
>so what's exactly your argument you fucking retard? You want to play a format that has never existed.
Good job dodging the argument though when it became inconvenient to admit that Base Set isn't a good metric for anything, as the only reason Blastoise was somewhat competitive was how broken the concept of unlimited acceleration is, even compared to the ridiculousness of other broken cards from the era.
Yes, we all know you're the same retard that couldn't grasp the concept of Frosmoth for a dozen posts straight. Nobody agrees with you. You're shitting up the thread by replying to any discussion about card balance with "you're wrong because I understand how the card works, and that makes it balanced and me - smart".

Simply kill yourself.

Literally 30 years ago a Magic the Gathering card called Black Lotus was printed. It was until recently the most powerful card ever printed, because it gave you turn 4 on turn 1. The ramifications of this card are felt to this day. In fact even now t1 Llanowar Elves is one of the strongest opening plays you can make. Acceleration is fucking stupid.
All that stuff you mentioned is busted which is why it doesnt exist in the same form it used to. Gust is now a Trainer not just an Item. Energy denial has caveats like a coin flip. Bringing back Rain Dance was a mistake and the only reason it's not absolutely shitting things up, is that there are even more broken cards above Frosmoth that are supported by their own forms of acceleration.

Legacy decks would need to build around lugia specifically instead of the usual TDK plasma decks. I haven't played legacy in a while, but lugia was not very common when I played.

Yes that's true. Lugia seemed tier 1 in the "game store meta" where many more players used low hp single prize decks because they were cheaper. Lugia obviously does very well against decks where it only needs one attack (and discard) to take 2 prizes. Legacy players on ptcgo are probably mostly players with lots of packs to spare anyway so you wouldn't see many of the budget decks of the era that lugia was good at countering.

I can't wait to watch this blunder, it's going to go one of two ways.
1) They pretend there's nothing wrong with the meta, give advice on some absolutely garbage-tier decks, maybe mention some Tier-2 VMAX deck and call it a day.
2) They fully embrace the meta as correct, they'll talk about ADPZ and Pikarom as the best decks but never acknowledge that barely anything else is viable.
By the description, I assume it's going to be number one, as it's "directed at newcomers" or whatever. But TPCi is pretty blatant at approaching ADPZ as completely planned and intentional.

It's more realistic that, as people come back to in-store play and clash with the awful Standard once again, they'll really introduce the "Evolution" format as sanctionable. More and more players will prefer it over the regular "Standard", they'll keep pushing it at events and delegate the V/VMAX category to shiny collectibles or kitchen table cards for kids.
That's probably the most inoffensive way of "banning" the multi-prize cancer without making massive shifts in set design or torpedoing people's investments.

None of these cards are really good enough on their own. Wishiwashi takes a lot of effort to make a deck out of on its own and isn't really even worth it. Lana Rod is a decent Item, though, and Weezing is good for spread damage with Roxie.

honestly it's still a meme deck since it isn't that great against normal energy decks, but it's too much of a hard counter to special energy to be activated t1 with an item card (which is the easiest type of card to search for)

It locks stadiums and tools too though which is almost the same amount of lock Trevenant got Forest of Giant Plants banned for.

I think trevenant locked items in general though, which is a lot more powerful than just tools/stadiums. I agree dusk stone deserves a ban though

Turn 1 marnie + unfair-gx can still brick many decks if Honchkrow ends up going second. Even more if they get a silent lab out too.

ah that
yeah no way in hell they are so fucking expensive, they have steadily risen from 2016 - where they were worth 2 packs at best - to nowadays where they are worth anything between 4-6 packs

the problem is finding anyone who wants to trade them, given said short supply

but anon 4-6 packs is not "so fucking expensive", that's what you can expect to pay for plasma era packs and those ones are still getting new ones added to the supply from expanded tournaments. starting to think you don't do much trading in non-standard stuff

Realistically, they are 15-30. I think I was able to get a Triumphant for 15-18 back in October to clear up a "for trade" tag on the pack that I didn't own. Low supply definitely makes it hard to find them for a fair price. The demand is also incredibly low as well, people will only want to lowball for them.
