>Finally completed the expert solo battles.Fuck those matches in particular, especially the Vensaur and Exeggutor ex deck.
>>56828297>Did they fucking readd it in the new client?Live has always had emotes, you're probably confusing it with the funky history of P2P communications in Online.
>Online starts with full chat functions in matches and rapidly becomes toxic due to the competitive nature of the game.>Full-text chat is removed from matches (it was still available in lobbies until ) with the only response from the staff being that "the trolls won" and replaced it with canned responses. The current theory is that a kid killed themselves over some abuse they got in the game and their parents sued TPCi over it, with TPCi settling by paying them off and forced Dire Wolf Digital's hand to remove it.>The ability to mute a player was also added around this time, presumably due to DWD predicting that players would spam canned responses when things wouldn't go their way.With Live we have...
>No text chat whatsoever>Animated emotes in matches>No ability to mute players during matches if they spam emotes (there isn't even an option to report players either).It's honestly kind of shitty when you think about it, they even mentioned that changes to the game's economy are coming next week with the arrival of Surging Sparks.
>>56828272Blaine turbo decks exist but last time I checked those tend to run Moltres ex for support, you could probably build a Moltres-less one though.
>>56828312>The deck is technically “incomplete”, but I run it with Electrode, Electabuzz, and Heliolisk.Electrode is good for free retreat but that's about it. Another suggestion I have is to run Zebstrika for sniping.
>If I ever get my hands on Zapados EX or more Pikachu EX I’d replace Electabuzz first.Pikachu ex decks always run 2 Pikachu ex and 2 Zapdos ex.
