In the last week of city league results (March 3-9), Giratina took the most top spots over lost box and zard. something interesting to note as it may be on the rise
Would be interesting to see the data correlating these point values, to overall meta share and average placement over the same set of data. Would go to show the under or over inflated Tier list values for over or under-utilized decks.
I will mainly play Ancient Box post rotation because I believe it can be a top tier deck down the line, plus it looks fun to play as a new deck archetype
I'm surprised not to see Miraidon EX on here. The deck is still very good and has the flexibility to include iron hands while having a higher general damage output. Also, if you play regieleki vmax, your iron hands hits even harder
As a Miraidon player, I'm a bit sad the deck will drop off from top tier just because of one card: Flaafy (and maybe Peony). But yeah, the alternatives make the deck much less reliable and consistent when dealing huge damage. Maybe when Iron Thorns is released but I'm not convinced
It’s a good card but it’s not seeing a lot of play in Japan right now so it hasn’t been in my early temporal forces videos. We might see it when I cover rogue decks next week!
Are the Points of an arche type devided by decks amount are played by this arche type? If not... that points earning list is a little... bad, cause more people can earn points for charizard and not for gholdengo etc.
Stil thinking what to play post rotation, specially that will occur when Crimson haze gets fully revealed and I am having high expectations with Ogerpon ex.
I definitely think Arc Tina Leaves struggles in bo1 format, so that may be the reason it is performing not as well. It realistically has answers to almost everything in the meta making it one of the most versatile decks in the format in my opinion
The deck is not "Turbo Hands". It's called "Kauntaa Kaina" (Counter Kaina; referring to "Tetsu no Kaina" Iron Hands). It feeds the opponent a Miraidon and then takes 2-2-2 prizes with Counter Catcher and possibly Boss's Orders / Prime Catcher. So it's the definition of a counter deck, not a turbo deck.
Lost Box & Charizard 😭 I hate this meta. I've been playing PTCGL for like a year now & am beyond tired of seeing Lost Box I'd take Mew & Lugia over this meta any day. Anybody have any cool deck ideas to play to counter the meta? I've just been playing my Miraidon EX waiting for something new I like Edit: Hmm, I might try Turbo Iron Hands. That seems fun
