I really wanted to play LB last format, but I didn’t want to play the paradox box since it was very complicated with all these energies and attackers (still pretty cool but not ideal for my locals) I was waiting for NAIC to find a good list and I was so happy to see LB winning the whole tournament. I’ve been playing with this list at my locals, just switching one or two cards depending on our meta and I’ve won 3 out of 4 of these small tournaments n.n I love this list and I agree on the zard MU being super hard with jirachi, but still winnable. And still other than that I feel like I’m favored into almost all MU. Thank you so much for this content James 🙏 I really needed to hear Andrew’s take on Dragapult since the MU can get scary Like many said in the comments, I’m surprised this is free content!

What do you think about this deck against raging bolt ogerpon?
@cleliaeuniceduartepastora51436 ай бұрын
@@kingseiryu929 I think it's favored since most of the time they will take 1 prize, and then you keep returning the KOS with Ursaluna. Before the video, I would think about Cram, Ninja and Sableye to take the first 4 prizes, but I did what Andrew said (2 gates for Bloodmoon Ursaluna, take 2 prizes, then 1 gate and take 2 more, and then KO with no energy) and this was easier! IONO is a bit scary but by the time they iono you, your deck is probably very tin and pokéstop helps getting the nest, rod and gates

Vs stall, is iron thorns into iron hands or ursaluna a line? You just eventually switch to the more powerful attacker late game and sweep since thorns does damage. Further, you shut off their rotom until you take a ko and from there you force them to have to find a cc every turn if they want to draw

I played this MU last week at my locals, my opponent was playing quad snorlax for the first time so maybe he’s not an expert, but this still a pretty straightforward deck. I just went early hands with arm press until I was able to amp my opponent. It didn’t matter if they had the tool or not, they could use all pennys they want but at some point they had to sacrifice a snorlax. This also helped me play around Eri and miss fortune sisters because of this early pressure. I think pokestop is also good to have (you don’t need to use it on every turn) but it can guarantee a switch when needed to keep attacking with hands.

@@platinumwaiterI just lost a match on the ladder against Quad snorlax haha I just came to say that this game plan won’t work if they don’t bench snorlax and they start to pressure with Chi-Yu and Mimikyu, I cramed the Mimikyu but then I couldn’t do too much, so try to kill Mimikyu with sableye so you have extra damage to potentially take an extra prize by KOs the damaged Chi-Yu or rotom
