This is actually a very well made video! I have been wanting to break down a lot of techs and line of play to my friends to teach and improve them on how to play the game, but sometimes I feel like teaching a whole deck after another is too much / exhaustive and sometimes it gets repetitive. A specific combo guide that explains the core mechanic that can be applied to a whole bunch of decks and scenarios like this is really efficient. Thumbs up 👍
In 6 games so far ive had one of the cards for this combo in the prizes. I pulled it off once and they had 2 heavy basics out so it didnt do anything 😂
@@timdanklin focused on turn 1 and relying on Noctowl at least on that build. Maybe you are right and there is a way to still pull off the turn 1 going 2nd to beat the mirror ? I'm struggling a bit with turbo 2nd two prize decks too
I have a quad build based on first turn KOs then hopefully deck out with a back up blood moon. I tried that Greninja list with wellspring addition but had no consistency with turn 1 attacks
pokemon just aint fun when it is a turn one turn two game. rip the format and the idea of having comeback cards when players can use those comeback cards while in the lead.
I'm confused. How does this work? Wellspring Ogerpon states that you have to shuffle 3 energy cards back into your deck to get the 120 bench damage. It is worded very specifically that you have to shuffle in 3 energy cards. If you attach a crystal and DTE, then that's only 1 energy card thereby making it impossible to get the bench damage benefit. Am i just dumb and missing something obvious? Is this meant to be satire? I'm seriously very confused.
You aren't dumb, it's just not super intuitive - in Pokemon you fulfil as much of the effect as possible, so it will actually work after you shuffle in just the DTE (assuming that is your only energy)
vic unfortunately went 75 out of 79 the next day btw, 0-4-0 same deck. The base deck used is inconsistent for sure if it’s going 6-2-0 then 0-4-0 a day later. That is just the heart of the cards sometimes though lol, especially in this meta - either day could’ve been a fluke. It lost to Regi, Bolt, Pult, then Palkia before he dropped. However, that doesn’t say anything about your refined version at all, with your accolades in real tourneys I really trust this revision a lot, and I’m hopeful these improvements make this standout more because this looks really fun to play! Awesome video and workshopping! New sub for sure.
I’m glad you have a channel btw, you always place well in your Aussie Regionals, it’s great to have real talent showing the ropes to others. Thank you for taking time to post theory and workshop these things on video. This helps with understanding how decks are built, before people just copy paste the same list from the internet with nearly no changes and it’s all you ever seem to play against in online play haha. Congrats on 1k!
Genuinely thankyou so much!! It really means a lot to hear this - these kind of comments fuel my motivation to make more content and help others learn, improve and think about the game 🫡
@@timdanklinthat’s great! I think you’ll do some solid numbers, this community desperately needs more competition players doing deck breakdowns. At this time it seems Azul and LDF are the only two tourney players that really dive into deck theory or showing anything. I’m sure there are more I’m forgetting. Azul sticks close to meta due to his position, LDF shows great bad deck Fridays for some rogue content, this is cozy in the center. I like a deck that practices good theory and has consistency, but is “off-meta” lol, I’m glad there is more room to play in the current F sets. Im hoping to run a few hours of practice on Live and see if the Greninja version of this is as fun as it is in my head haha. I’m excited to test it!
You totally had me with you until you just tried to fit this donk package in already meta decks. I would have loved to see a nice original wellspring ogerpon deck. 😅 nonetheless i love your approach on deckbuilding and your content, keep it up!💥
The third deck list I showed off is an original take with a solid focus on Wellspring Ogrepon - but it was quite hard to come up with a deck entirely focused on just this concept, would love to see one if you come up with something 👀
@@timdanklini tried so many different (mainly) controllish decklists with it and know how fragile it is this is why I hoped to see it work in some way. I haven't tried a hardcore "combo" approach though and your video definitely makes me want to go deckbuilding with it again. 😊
I'm already playing Palkia with Greninja. Since the deck runs very little supporters, but a lot of Items and Greninja, I already run Colress. I already run DTE since I play both Colress and Greninja already. I could literally just put an Ogerpon in there and switch Catcher for Crystal, maybe 1 Town Store. Palkia can even recharge the Ogerpon if necessary. The deck also runs the Dusk Line.
@@timdanklin That's exactly the thing. The deck is gas but has no Turn 1 attack to put the pressure on going second. I'll be testing it and seeing how it goes.
The way it works in Pokemon is that you fulfil as much of the effect as possible - so you just return the double turbo energy and you still get to use the rest of the attack
Great and very well put video! I really enjoyed the pacing and the explanations, I find that ptcgl videos can be very helpful, they highlight the thought process behind choices and can make decks click in some players heads :)
Dudee!! I just stumbled across your channel. You are truly building masterpieces. I just got into this tcg because of a friend and so far enjoying it a lot. I dont even have 100 games on PTCGL and even with a winning record. However I don’t just want to play Pult/Noir even though I love it, also just tired of 3/5 matches being Zard/Pidgeot/Noir. So i started looking for alternatives and trying to cook with other decks. I crafted a Turbo Okidogi/Darkrai that I like a lot. Still have to iron out some things. Then I started to build theoretically a Turbo Darkrai with the inclusion of Glass Trumpet. Things like Cornerstone, Bloodmoon and even the inclusion of Arceus V since its colorless and basic. The acceleration of 8 energies in a turn for Darkrai sounds broken and fun. You think you could explore this option? Also, if you want I can send you the list. Like I said, is a work in progress and the idea is to be ultra minimalistic in Trainers and heavy on items.
Thanks I really appreciate it!!! Feel shoot me a message on twitter with the list and I'll try take a look at it ☺️ glas trumpet and Darkrai is a really cool idea for sure
