Another Top 16 for Ciaran with Lugia Vstar! Regidrago Infestation at Toronto Regionals

[@ChazBlanks]

Congrats to Ciaran on Top 16. I'm glad I met you even though it was a few seconds. You are very tall. Very nice person. Aneil I saw you while you were playing. Overall, I love being in Toronto. I will definitely be back next year.

[@ZBurkhardt]

Huge ups to Aneil on the DQ discussion. Couldn’t have discussed to topic any better, plus educating the community on what is and isn’t allowed for GA’s is clutch. Great job as always, fellas!

Worth watching the podcast for this information! As a new player, I would not have known how to handle this! Sorry about the DQ!

Appreciate it Eric. Was great seeing you! - Ciaran

[@TheWillrocks51]

You said it’s hard to comeback now because of Fez, but like, fez is the ultimate comeback mechanic. It doesn’t allow for snowballing because you get three free cards after every knock out you suffer. I think the main problem with meta is it’s incredibly balanced just none of the decks are overly unique. They’re all mechanics we’ve been playing with for the three years or standard Pokemon TCG stuff.

[@ShiftGearPodcast]

The reason Fez stops comebacks is because Iono isn't that powerful. An Iono to two is effectively an Iono to 6 after Fez and draw for turn. I do agree the very wide meta makes the game super balanced and hard to metagame for. - Ciaran

[@ericridgeway6148]

Wow! Had no clue that happened ANEIL. You handled this with utmost dignity , hope that Pokemon doesn’t take any further action. You don’t deserve anything

@@ericridgeway6148 I hope not! Appreciate the words big dog. Sincerely, The Dutty cheater
