You would not believe the hardships I went through while editing this video. Heartbreak, channels dying, ten billion college assignments, and hardest of them all, JW breathing and wheezing louder than all other tabletop guests combined
@@TrickyGym Is it possible that you make a link to a place where we can see the deck list written out. I've just started to delve deep into TCG, and your videos have been some of the best ive watched. nice work!~
Yoo why is this audio so smooth and rich? Definitely got my attention within a few seconds of playing the video. Great set and production! Love this deck. Fairly new to PTCGL and Dialga V became an instant favorite. Iterated it a bunch to see how fast I can accelerate energy and your list helps a ton, thank you for sharing!
I’ve always been a dialga believer, i even won a whopping 8 championship points with dialga v star / magnezone. I’m really excited about the metal maker
We know metagross always gets rulebox cards and that the SV evolution promos have each slowly gotten rulebox counterparts with every set so I can’t wait for metagross ex in a future set. They aren’t creating these cool abilities or attacks on some evolving or basic Pokémon for no reason anymore.
Would love a tera Metagross ex, like fighting. There seems to be a lack of good fighting types and they generally struggle with energy. So a good tera Metagross ex could help fix fighting types in an indirect way.
Hey Tricky!! As a fellow Pokemon Card RU-vidr, over the past year I have been working on getting better and more knowledgeable with the TCG. Lately I have been working on some decks for the upcoming set Temporal Forces. I have come up with this awesome deck featuring a Brambleghast from the upcoming set. Here is the list!!! (Anyone else can use this list as well) 4-Bramblin TEF 4-Brambleghast TEF 1-Pineco PAL 1-Forretress ex PAL 4-Spiritomb LOR 2-Mew ex 151 4-Counter Catcher PAR 1-Boss's Orders PAL 2-Nest Ball S&V 3-Luxurious Cape PAR 3-Switch Cart ASR 3-Iono PAL 1-Morty's Conviction TEF 2-Ultra Ball S&V 2-Proffesser's Research S&V 1-Hisuian Heavy Ball ASR 4-Vengeful Punch OBF 1-Town Store OBF 1-Hero's Cape TEF 2-Buddy Poffin TEF 4-Reversal Energy PEV 3-Dark Energy 7-Grass Energy I know that you don't really care for this Pokemon, but I hope you can find a way to use this deck and I hope you like it. Anyone else can use this deck as well! Thank you so much! I am a big fan of the channel! Keep making awesome content!
dialga vstar could be a tier 2 deck in its final year (april 2024- march 2025) Game plan is to setup 3 metal maker metang like single strike urshifu vmax deck setup 3 single strike roar houndoom to charge up the energy We could integrate TM evolution to speed up the setup, vitality band/ maximum belt to increase star chronos damage in order to knock out HP230-HP270 2 prize pokemon when we get extra turn If 2 dialga vstar got knocked out, and the score is tie, we might need mew ex as a joker to break the dreadlock
I tested this deck and enjoyed it thoroughly. It’s not as consistent as Raging Bolt (how are you still calling it Raging Bulk, Mr. Bramblin Man?), but sifting through my deck 12 cards at a time feels very satisfying, almost therapeutic. Thank you for sharing this list. Speaking of which, are there any cards you would change? I’m not crazy about the Judge, since the deck doesn’t have that many draw supporters and nothing better than Radiant Greninja to dig for an out to a fresh hand.
I made a kid cry at pre-release today because he thought i was cheating using more than 1 metal maker per turn. This kid is ranked top 15 in juniors in the world and thinks he's god's gift to Pokémon. He also insisted in cutting my pre-release deck and his first cut knocked my entire deck over 😅 . Then he went on to cut my deck after a metal maker when it wasnt necessary. I wish our local sceen had more juniors so i never have to put up with that ever again. I just kept my cool and let it all slide because i knew i was winning no matter what he did. 😅😅
Andrew, thank you for building both of these awesome decks, the stellar piloting with you and JW, and last but not least the exquisite editing by Pig Chef! *Chef's kiss*
I think the ancient deck could benefit from squawkabilly ex. It wants to dicard cards and it could get a fresh hand on its first turn to help it take that first KO he was really trying to get. Also a few ultra balls to help discard ancient cards from hand he doesn't need so the deck can push more damage could help.
Ohh man, this deck is winning some City League Tournaments in Japan. Could this be it, guys? Could we finally see a viable Dialga VSTAR deck? I have been rooting for this card for so long...
Can we not add iron hands?? 220+120 on iron hands attack?? That's an instant charizard 3 prize KO plus iron hands can pick up a KO on 1 prizes after Dialga gets 1 so your looking at potential for 3 even in a 1 prize deck.
With the new rotation coming up, I decided to try my hand at irl competitive TCG and really wanted to build something with Dialga/Magnezone but Metang is starting to look a lot more appealing! I might try a variant which also includes Basculin (gets 2 basic Pokemon on my bench) and Basculegion (shuffle all discarded Energies back). I did notice you don't run any Stadium cards, is there one that could work in this deck to also prevent my opponent from getting too wild with theirs?
You could play lost vacuum to remove tools or stadiums. Lost vacuum isn’t bad because it’s also searchable via arven! If you really want a stadium, artazon is never a bad idea. You could also try the new metal -30 defensive buff stadium coming out of temporal forces, but I am not a fan of those types of cards as opponents almost never actually swing into them
Metang is yet another energy accelerator that let's you splash something crazy like Iron Hands ex and actually attack with a Mew Ex outta nowhere. So cool!
Fun fact: Jay Hornung affectionately nicknamed Metang "Meditang." And that's what I'm nicknaming my Beldum if I ever catch one in Diamond Version (Don't ask. You're happier not knowing how hard it is to find this thing, much less to catch it).
Energy recycler rotates the same day temporal forces becomes legal so it wouldn't make sense to be testing with that in the deck. Energy recycler has an "E" regulation mark. All cards with "E" will no longer be standard legal when temporal forces becomes legal.
I cringe everytime i see you do that pyramid shuffle or bending cards in your hands. That asside i love dialga vstar and to see the metang being a better magnazone is so good i mostly just play expanded, but its nice to see my main deck ia getting some great support aswell as my metal glc deck getting energy support.
