I’ve never dreamed of the day, when the psyduck meta would become real...

[@Sandwhichmjncher4215]

HA

[@jamesisshado8323]

The day has come for a psyduck who we all thought was trash would be great

[@ResidentKlinton]

And now we live in a world where the World Championship promo card is devoted to Psyduck. The duck shall reign!

[@williampeng5948]

I remember collecting Pokémon cards back in the day and even though I didn't have many cards I loved all the strategy behind games and even got the Honorstoise World Championship deck. Then, yesterday I suddenly got recommended your Chandelure video and I've been watching some of your videos. I love that this game is still so active and has even more unique and cool strategies!

[@brainkimchi4873]

i started playing pokemon tcg online again and all of a sudden i watched his chandelure video too that's crazy lol. I might start collecting and build physical decks again

[@joepacheco7885]

I collected cards when I was a kid and never played the tcg other than the gameboy game. I’ve now gotten really into the intricacies of the present tcg, opened 5 booster boxes and have had a great time collecting and playing ptcgo. I’m just kicking myself because some the cards I had as a kid are worth a great deal now.

[@adamfrazer9490]

Crazy just won 3 in a row with this deck beat bolting nah Pilar I’m and Dacian still don’t be leave it works

Hey thanks for the shout out! I started 6-0 and had some bad luck with prizes/starts to finish at 8-5. Wish I could've day 2'd but it was a good time and I have no regrets.

[@TrickyGym]

HEY! We found you. excellent I will update to include your last name. The stream chat told me about you and your deck. awesome job!

[@vancekelley6988]

[@mr.fluffypantz4150]

@vancekelley6988 World Champ difference :) Congrats!

[@danielp8108]

Really small thing, but in your last game, it would've been better to retreat the Psyduck and then use Fisherman, since you could draw back the last fire energy that you discarded for Psyduck's retreat cost. Overall really good deck and gameplay :)

[@ajtp1349]

I’ve been checking out your vids recently and now I’m considering collecting cards again. Maybe build my first competitive deck

[@Arcvde]

They got me back into it now i have 6 real decks lol

[@eanddspokemon920]

My brother lost to this during q4

[@l333la9]

😂

[@jcmomo3343]

That's really unfortunate. 😅

[@liltone9614]

As soon as you put this on KZbin everyone is playing it on the ladder

[@serranop60]

Man this deck is so busted, Nice to see that there are so many amazing deck builders that can build awesome decks like Chandelure and now Unown Hand. Awesome video as always and this deck was absolutely crazy on stream, so glad this became a KZbin video. You did a good job not including the clip where you were like one card short.

[@boimcboi7969]

So it's basically exodia but even more over the top. I like it.

[@Nedmac320]

It’s the unbeatable deck in action that went undefeated on stream kekw

[@Whodatwhathappen]

exactly thirty five cards last match😳😳

[@Cat_kit12]

I LOVE YOU AND I LOVE IT IS YOU ARE A GOOD friend I LIKE pokemon is Eevee I think you are the last pokemon card and I have pokemon card for me

[@swsw687]

OMG 😲 I fought against him in Q4 And lost

[@slightlyanonymousm4921]

I was just thinking and realized this could be used pretty well to power up a giratina/garchomp with double dragon energy x3... after they can't play any trainers for 3 turns on the 4th turn you should have enough of your deck ran through to have all 3 dragon energies loaded up to perform "gg end gx" ... opponent is highly unlikely to have more than 2 pokemon in play considering they were locked from playing any trainers. 2 pokemon shuffled back in deck and you win the game. Super nasty!!!

[@heartstriker2831]

so this is the last hoorah for unknown... I was thinking about how do I prevent my opponent from stamping me or Marnie or even judge... but this is a legit deck... I need to play it... I must play unknown... one last time

[@Bos_Meong]

UNOWN bruh

[@owenooi7135]

It's an Exodia Deck man, brokeeeen!!

[@SethirothGaming]

It's definitely a misplay not to use the ordinary rod when you have a combination of 4 pokemon/ energy in your discard pile, becasue you can basically draw into those cards increasing your hand size.

[@CausticFoil]

I love the Unown Victory screen

[@StellarWishGaming2002]

Great video Andrew! One thing I tend to do to count how many cards I have in hand on PTCGO, is I count how many cards are in my deck, in my discard pile, any cards in play (basic pokemon, evolved pokemon, attached energies and tools, and a stadium card if you have one in play), and how many prize cards I have remaining. Subtract the number you counted from 60. The difference between your hand and your other cards is how many cards you have in your hand.

[@Sandwhichmjncher4215]

Awesome

[@Whodatwhathappen]

😎

[@MrRubixscube]

fun video, but i noticed one missplay: you played fisherman before retreating psyduck in the last turn, making you one card shorter, and you won with exactly 35. that was close

[@malachihill8677]

I made a similar cheaper version of this deck. I really wanted to make a use for Will.

[@blazikenblasttcg7014]

[@VirtuesOfSin]

11:35 - 60 card decks, right? 10+11+6 for Deck, Discard, and Prizes, +1+2+2+2 for Psyduck and 3 stage 2 Silazzile 60-34=26

[@williamclancy-jundt118]

Sad. I don't have like any of these cards but I have the win condition card. Like getting 35 cards seems really hard. Once you realize that six cards are going to be in your price pool six or going to be pokémon on the benchant battlefield maybe even a few cards to evolve them and then a few more cards because they have to have energy attached. It's just like how is that possible?

[@thkevi]

this deck must be horrible to play in person. 35 cards in hand?

[@wyattpalguta4643]

Its super fun in person its the best feeling when your opponent asks how many cards you have in hand.

[@whispy2127]

Don't you think the Players Cup is kinda BS with how they basically require people to grind for Tickets just to enter? A little unrealistic for people who use their Tickets right away rather than save them like others. Also, I wonder if they make cards like Unown Hand just to have people try making decks around it for fun lol. It's just so gimmicky lol

[@yaboiguzma393]

It’s an interesting deck idea but it’s p much the exodia deck of Pokémon. There’s like no player interaction other than headache and will like you may as well just play solitaire lul

[@robertfacella846]

Wait.... unown HAND && DAMAGE are banned in expanded BUT NOT standard??

[@jolteon345]

Just played against this deck and it's so boring. It's like your opponent is playing solitare, especially since I couldn't hit my second energy to KO

[@rodneymorin6778]

This deck is hilarious! It’s so troll!

[@astroaddy10]

Okay fuck pikarom, chandelure and unknown are the best decks

[@advaithskumar3547]

Of all Pokémon 😂😂 saw this live on stream too 🤣

[@jasminemasterss5417]

Please don't torture the ladder by playing this, thanks

looks like a really fun deck

[@storyborrero5890]

How do you beat this deck? Besides prayers.

[@jamesisshado8323]

Better then then the Emolga speed energy unown hand

[@quakenburg]

SIR, WHERE ARE THE WELDERS??????

[@bootstheone7143]

**MAKE THEM PAY FOR THIS HERESY** GET IT?

[@p83arch]

Just swap one card for a Chip off durant and this deck would be wiped out. But how does this fair against mill decks. Maybe one or two critical mill would hurt this so bad.

[@suchitkoparde769]

Patrick Gianan Psyduck prevents mill so that’s the only thing you can do along with umbrai gx. If you can get a will before they start milling you’d win easily.

[@liltone9614]

I remember the baby blowns matchup use to be free

[@heem2k]

this is the most ridiculous deck ive ever seen

[@reytoxeron5899]

Is unown not allowed in standard anymore? It only says its banned in expanded but I cant play it in standard (same with fisherman??)

[@reytoxeron5899]

Can u seriously not play this card at all anymore???

[@angelabell8517]

HAND

[@benjaminreid]

I just played the user "pokefails" against this deck before seeing this video and was wondering what was going on... Thankfully they conceded but it would of been a funny way to loose.

[@emberpowertcg7692]

psy-ducking..., across the universe!! on the meta deck, under captain Mahone! (star trekkin, firm)

[@TactiCam1]

So this is like pokemon exodia?

Starting playing Baby Blowns/Pokemon Catchers/Acrobikes, and it's 🔥.

[@W0r1dzSHIVfT]

Seen someone pull a Turn 1 win with HAND Unknown. This deck profiles impresses not!

[@piercethedrock]

In the last game, you could have retreated the Psyduck first, then used Fisherman to get the full 4 to be safe but this looks like a ton of fun to play.

[@Bos_Meong]

Haha funny duck

You can’t evolve into porygon t1 going second lol. The original comment is probably talking about the 6 prizes in one turn deck.

discarded not shuffled into deck:)

[@slightlyanonymousm4921]

What a thing of beauty!! Will is such an incredible supporter... I imagine likely someday it will be banned in expanded... combining it with lt surge strategy and lusamine you could run this on infinite loops with many various strategies... This was awesome build!!! Love it! I need that unown card (don't yet have one) but most all the other pieces on here i have... thanks for showcasing this!

[@davidyounan5774]

surge and lusamine are banned in expanded tho and expanded also has victini and will have a coin flip stadium (if its not banned) i dont think will is too overpowered

[@adrianrivera4970]

I faced this deck on the ladder with my falinks deck and man I was not ready

[@blazikenblasttcg7014]

You could play one copycat so after you make their hand bigger by not letting them play trainers, you get a big hand yourself

[@boxkid759]

You will 100 percent have a bigger hand than your opponent with this deck lol

[@Jerry-ev8cq]

LOL!

[@gunkulator1]

I've tried this deck 5 times. It whiffs fire energy a lot. The draw power only works when you have fire energy in your hand. With only 11 in the deck, you're likely to miss when you discard and draw 3, especially as more fire goes to the discard. You end up wasting fire crystals to get back one energy too often.

[@slightlyanonymousm4921]

So edit the deck putting 18 energy in it? Have you tried that? Really I think the most important parts to this deck is energy and will and psyduck. Everything else is extra. The umbreon super handy if need and extra turn. I could see energy retrievals being added and evolution incense to absolutely ensure you get salazzles roasting... and no need to even have scoop up net if the overall goal you focus on is just energy energy. Drawing and getting energy and making darn sure every single turn you have a will in your hand. Sobble, drizzle line could be helpful in assuring u always are able to get will... for Mahone everything went so perfectly...

No because you need to be able to use Headache from Psyduck. Intrepid Sword ends your turn before you could do that.

You wouldnt get to headache wvery turn, so probably not. Intrepid sword would end your turn and they could use trainers at that point.

I know this video is kinda old, but I’m building the deck for myself right now. For salandit, would it be better to use battle styles 027 with call sign instead of dragon majesty 13. Since call sign puts the card into your hand not bench

[@HGWelp]

Dude next time just keep it to yourself, literally all my matches are against this stupid deck now

[@mrkrabs203]

Idk why but my opponent took a mulligan and gave me a option to draw 32 cards. I’m sure it would’ve helped this deck

[@TheVictor126]

bots, they use decks like 1 mewtwo EX, lugia EX or guzzlord GX with 59 energy so they can win by either making the opponent naively drawing their entire deck (so you lose at the start of your first turn) or by getting an attacker ready 100% of the time (even tho it's terrible it can still get other bots or players with bad hands)
