You can add me in game with my id: DS-271994

[@bryansmiththebeads9679]

As a person who built their own deck I would like to see more of this type video

[@MatthewHebdon]

Definitely.

[@whateveridcanyways]

yes!!! you havent done anything pokemon card for a while so it would be pretty cool if you did it again

[@umbiione]

Yes do this again! Could maybe do it with other Poketubers? That would be awesome!!!

[@beuks4478]

absolutely!

[@FreedomExalia]

Man. The true hero here is the editor. For us VGC unknowledgeables, the pop-ups and the zoom-ins are very, very helpful. Made the video and the battle even more engaging. Thanks, man.

[@just-a-tactician076]

Dude seriously. I felt that that was the clearest explanation about TCG I've ever seen. It actually kinda makes sense, which is insane to me.

[@jenniferhenquinet3247]

What does VGC it mean?

Don't you mean TCGC? Since we're talking about The TCG?

[@mrdrsirman3168]

Jack looks genuinely happy throughout this entire vid, you can tell he had a blast making it

The way Phanny sprinted over for that Arven when he found out who was paying 😂 hope there’s more content like this in the pipeline!

[@DannyPhantump]

Jack’s Credit Card FTW!!!

[@renatos6711]

As a magic player, I now understand how it feels to watch someone play when you don’t know the rules. Really awesome video!

[@DEV1LMAN.]

As a magic player myself I felt the same way 😂

[@paxgallery6646]

As someone who doesn't understand the rules that battle was awesome

[@lbroseven9177]

Lmao😂

[@MysteryGuradian]

Agreed 😂

[@ZaneTaylor-pt8xp]

true

[@isaacxanthos2076]

As someone who understands the rules the game wasn’t great. But their mood fixed it all.

[@jayemar527]

cliffe getting stopped by a fan at the end of the 30 minutes while his deck was at the table where it could be taken is the most horrifying part of the video

[@Neakenator]

It was really fun to see Purplecliffe play TCG, especially since he seems to be SO GOOD and I don't know ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Really felt like an anime battle Yu-Gi-Oh style. :D I also liked the flex of Jack being so chill and cool with all of his fans. But not only he, but the vendors seemed super nice and friendly, too!

[@richardrowland9511]

yeah he actually started with the tcg. pokemon tcg online. I used to talk to him as a fellow streamer.

[@Spectre2893]

@Neakenator I've been to a bunch of Pokémon Regionals, and every single person I've met at them has been super chill and nice lol, it's a blast

[@gigglegal1988]

That was an awesome video! It was so much fun to watch and the suspense of who was going to win was so well done! Also cliffe sneakily showing cards to the camera had me dying of laughter so much

[@katherinedixon7434]

So cool running into you guys the day before Peoria! Such a great video :)

[@PagNSlay]

I'm not big into the card game but I still buy cards occasionally. I have no idea how to actually play but this video gave me a greater appreciation for the game and the community who support it. Great video and would love to watch more.

[@inklingsquid4688]

Jack genuinely sounds excited when talking about Disney Speedstorm, props to him

[@dragonpokemonlover237]

This was such a fun video. I've never played the card game but this was sooooo fun to watch. Purplecliff stopping to talk to a fan was spool sweet

[@bailysmith9398]

This is a awesome idea. Hope to see it again

[@loganorliamgillespie2485]

True

[@RahulReddy]

Absolutely a banger video to watch, Sam was totally cooked off that first turn being so bad XD

[@bswest5]

Great vid! Best part was Jack randomly meeting fans every time he was in a rush 😂

[@ssaZeke]

I can't say I ever really cared about the TCG, but you made that look easy to understand and super fun!

[@shatathamid5307]

We need more tcg deck building content man this is so exciting

[@henrybales3172]

As a TCG fan this was a super fun change of pace in the channel, would love to see a video of u tryna complete a full set sometime!

[@danfrancisco5127]

For a person who personally loves the pokemon tcg card game, Cliffe won that with skill because he was able to preserve his cards until the end to deal with the final blowout. Congrats, Cliffe, and I hope you continue to make more fun videos like this one!

[@usergiusv8977]

Can we have more tcg videos? It looks like you had a lot of fun making this one and i would love to watch more

[@uorimoon]

Seeing a person in their element where they have the knowledge for it is just a treat to watch! ♥

[@ChefGreasypaw]

I’ve never had any interest in tcg in the slightest, so this video just shows how entertaining cliffe is to make me watch the whole thing!

[@hahigdon511]

I love how even when Jack is in a rush, he still is the kindest human being ever. God bless.❤

[@CrazDragon6]

i've watched this video at least like 20 times, why is this so good, like i used to watch one of his vids then move onto the next then never watch it again. jack please keep making videos as good as this one, you're an amazing youtuber, thanks for making my days better. also your editors are amazing, they need to get a raise.

[@SennedebondtYT]

As someone who plays the pokemon tcg competitively, u guys played fairly well. 👍

[@taylorabrahamse8345]

This is like a wholesome Kenny VS Spenny episode and just as fun. A tier content

[@owenforschler5326]

As a fellow miridon player this was fun to watch it working love how aggressive the deck is

[@GymLeaderJJ]

This was a cool concept! I really liked the video and you look like you had fun making it!

[@Arcoooos]

This is sooooo good. Its nice to see cliff back in the tcg scene

[@Saberaxolotl]

Jack ive watched this like 4 times now and i love it the idea and actual payoff is great really hoping to see another one of these in the future

[@sp10482]

Ok now, this is the first time in my life of playing Pokemon, I have seen a full TCG match, and it's amazing lol. It is as fun as the games, and now makes me really get into it lol.

[@wonderlandzer0]

This was such an AMAZING video!! I havent played TCG in like, 10 years, and this gave me such a RUSH. It reminded me how much fun TCG was and makes me want to play again :,)

[@jellysteve4284]

Clif "call an ambulance" pulls out gvn "but not for me"

[@pokegeek9125]

I genuinely loved this video. I’ve been collecting for over half my life but never learned to play. Seeing people collecting and playing is so fun. Also a bit jealous, those card boxes look so cool.

[@JavierSerrano713]

I would love to see more purplecliffe playing the TCG

[@skrawvgc]

No TCG video I have ever watched has had this much production value or energy please keep it up

[@aburii123]

I used to be a regular back when you played tcg on twitch with 90 viewers glad to see you having so much fun with the tcg again 😊

[@iancalhoun7644]

More of this kinda video, it's an absolute blast. As a competitive player, it's so fun to watch the different knowledge levels. Best video from you in a while, at least to me. Keep it up!!

[@arcticras132]

Would honestly watch a TCG stream sometime! As someone who regularly plays the card game, this was a really fun watch.

[@sarah_twilight]

That’s was so cool man. Definitely should do this again. The enjoyment you had the whole video was amazing!

[@thartig92]

This video is so amazing. And i'm flashed that he stopped for his fans every time without rushing it ❤

[@justhen8022]

This was amazing!! I'm currently trying to get into the tcg and this vid was great as a starting point, as well as super fun and entertaining! Would love to see more like it in the future!! P.S. ur awesome

[@slateportraichu5416]

This is totally like the Path To Peak episode, but in real life=3 Sick! Haven't played TCG since X/Y or Sun/Moon. This battle was awesome and now I want to play again=3

[@dakids6849]

This format was honestly so fun to watch. I dont play the pokemon tcg, but definitely a good watch.

[@patriciahebert4794]

W for Sam's friend

[@TheLegendOfTommy]

this video made me so happy to see u doing TCG content, I started off watching you showcasing decks on PTCGO. Such nostalgia

[@fredrick-jr1qi]

This is a crazy good video idea and you should definitely do it again (Edit) Jack when he plays Pokémon TCG 🧠 Jack when he does anything else literally fucking brain dead

[@HabilHayden]

Bro can make anything look fun

[@leviadams8777]

Yo this was awesome. Super well explained for anyone who doesn’t know tcg. Fun way to spice up the challenge would be most expensive vs least expensive deck. Both players build decks, one is max rarity with most expensive cards, and the other is min rarity of the cheapest meta deck. Probably like some arceus deck vs sablezard maybe?

[@carsonrobert1519]

That looked like so much fun, never seen anyone play the card game and you could tell they both had fun making the video. Also he sounded so sad at the end, idk why but it made me chuckle

Never watched a video like this before and it was awesome. Amazing job explaining a TCG battle to those like me who haven’t competed

[@Kaije]

I played the online version of the TCG and I was still a little confused, but that looked like a lot of fun! I'm glad you had fun!!

[@thomasclapham6157]

It seems like such a small thing, but they are clearly big enough to be recognised and yet Cliffe still makes it a point to greet fans and chat to them. Even as far as losing on a trade to make sure someone gets fun cards.

[@byrontheusurper6505]

These are so much fun!

[@Samriddha_Chatterjee]

As someone who very recently got into Pokemon TCG, this was so freaking entertaining.

[@Klausbro]

It’s sick to see cliffe play the game he’s actually fantastic at and knows about

[@Phoenix-sb6hl]

Wow, this brings me back to when I ran a Pokemon league for a year. I think it was during the X & Y series but it was so much fun. I hate that the store went debunk a few years later but those memories were great nonetheless

[@rarelyfair]

As a former shiny hunter, turned vgc player, then turned tcg player, your channel has been serotonin for so long. Thank you Mr.PurpleCliffe.

[@Subwayboss]

Daaaaaaaaamn Jack you were destroying him. Not even a sweat. I personally really love watching the TCG so this was just an awesome video.

[@TwilightChomperEnthusiast]

Mew VMAX is disgustingly strong, especially since you can (potentially) draw up to *_24_* cards per turn. It also doesn’t help that you have access to pretty much every type of attack in the game.

[@byrontheusurper6505]

Damn, that fusion strike technique is nutty!

[@IcyCrocus]

this was really fun to watch i love the chaos of trying to find what the vendors have

[@trafficbyintent]

This video is so well done I can't stop myself from watching it over and, over again.

[@worthpondtwo5805]

Even if I didn’t know a thing about the TCG id still enjoy this video, you explained everything better than most other tcg competitors could

[@Agent_Grean]

This video was awesome!! Really really makes me want to get back into playing the TCG again! I aso didn’t realize Purplecliffe was THAT DUDE in the Pokémon tcg. 😳

[@aigocharisma]

He started out in the TCG scene! ☺️ I'm glad that he is showing his talents!

[@smiley4baseball728]

Cliff taking the time to sign stuff and take pictures is so heartwarming. Makes me like him more haha

[@FoolTarnished]

Actually goated video cliff love this one can’t wait for the next one

[@Epicwarfare1555]

Straight to the point, fun, friendly and funny! Subscribed!

[@drewahlberg594]

Jack we talked at this tourney and I mentioned I had been watching since the super early ptcgo days. Still waiting for weeb Sundays to come back! Love you and your content buddy!

[@ConMan271]

This was actually super helpful for me someone who loves pokemon and and the card art but never knew how to play the tcg

[@yoshilover4919]

Amazing Video as always Glad to see the Mew I traded you got some use congrats on the win

[@dennispeligro3841]

This may look late but happy 1 million subs, Jack!

[@bkkriz]

😂 The way Danny RAN to get that Arven when he know who was paying 🤣

[@Rexton_Flynn]

I really can't wait for more tcg videos, I keep re-watching these videos and hope for more, plus I love Sam and have been getting a lot into pokemontcg live lately

[@teernaurselenaur]

as someone who has no idea how the tcg works i can confirm that i had no idea what was going on but i watched the video for fun

[@brotheraik]

This was honestly so fun to watch!

[@coin_crowder]

Just watched your 1 booster box battle first video Ive seen of y'all's, and gotta say you earned my sub 👍🏼

[@Sabre5106]

Bro all the vendors in this video are the best So much joy and personality, Pokemon fans warm my heart

[@JoaoSilva-nx7ql]

Honestly, I never thought I would be into the Pokémon TCG… now I want more videos like this. Might even try and learn to play the damn thing.

[@BasilWilhelm]

Tbh, when the video came out I had no desire to watch it because I never played the tcg, just collected some as a kid. But a wacky turn of events has led to me trying to learn the tcg, and this video helped to hype me up about learning the game. I normally don't comment, but I want to prove to the algorithm that this video is good and I want to see more like it.

[@Endyderg]

omg; this was such a fun video! would love to see more of these :) also, i may as well pick up on playing the tcg again, i just miss playing it and would love to do so again. the site you shared is very helpful!

[@DiamondKing-xu9se]

Is it weird if this taught me more about playing the Pokémon TCG than a lot of other stuff I’ve tried to look at

[@WeezaW0o]

I can’t with this video. My son wants to start learning the Pokemon tcg so this has really helped me understand. I had no idea about the card types so I should be able to help him better if I can afford some cards for him 😅 then you come in with speedstorm sponsor 😍 and this became the best video ever 😂

[@trevorhoell3471]

Bro I had no clue what was happening through the entire battle, but god was it hype.

[@ryanslawinski9807]

This is such a good idea for a video. I'd love to see this happen again on your channel.
