What an awesome video and a great resource for Pidgeot Control. Intro was very creative and funny!

[@ShagrotsCave]

locking in Bird Control for my first regional :)

[@ben.shields]

Thank you so much for all of your invaluable resources! This is helping me so much with learn the game! 💙🙏

[@Alloutblitzle]

Thank you so much :) happy to help

[@samsquanchmetazoo]

Always learn so much from your videos. Mist preventing tm devolution for example, or Mac and cheese in to iono to prevent deck out

[@logannnn]

thank you for putting the time into making this for us broke boys who aren't on the metafy

[@waltwalk8113]

What would you remove for a conerstone Ogerpon? Or do you think its not good fit for the deck

[@Alloutblitzle]

I think erikas is the most cuttable card

[@ben.shields]

I saw 2 Klauf decks in top8 at my locals this week. It looks like they only run a handful of special energies, and rely on Klauf for attacking. Maybe a strategy could be burning through those energies with Giacomo + Leki? Perhaps stall for a bit using Mawile on one of their supporters, protect our Pidgeot and don't expose too many 2 prizers. If we need more time to burn their switches & energies on retreats, we can put Ogerpon in the active. Then later game if they're out of energies to attack, we can take prizes with Ursaluna. If things go poorly for us, maybe a backup idea is using a mixture of Vacuum, Giacomo, Luxray, and then come back with some Blustery Wind, Ursaluna, Iono, Counter Catcher to take out their supporters? What are your guys' thoughts on this matchup?

[@Alloutblitzle]

Cc + vac + giac + leki destroys them

[@ArthurLorensen]

After watching you play Control for a while, I'm starting to consider playing control if rotation hurts to much Miraidon ex

Today I learned what a bird is!Thank you for the educational content 🐦

[@DrpressureGOAT]

This video was really helpful thank you

[@asquidnamedowl]

I've been waiting for this

[@TolisWorld]

you should make a video on how to beat bird control, I have played a ton of test matches and I cant figure it out lol

[@stevenokeefe2681]

James, great job. One question: how would you play against item lock decks? Like Banette?

[@Alloutblitzle]

Try to go 1st and setup pidg then do the usual stuff of chi yu and retreat lock. If we go 2nd we cry

[@Savageaf303]

How do you feel about enamorus V with luminous energy to protect whatever you don’t want dusk to hit?

[@Alloutblitzle]

In theory it sounds great but it seems extremely challenging to find all that before your pidgey gets blown up

[@TolisWorld]

do you recommend this list or the one with luxray you were testing on stream? I really want to try it, it seems like a very different deck that could be a lot of fun to play!

[@Alloutblitzle]

This list is better

[@TolisWorld]

@@Alloutblitzle thank you

[@SarangSankrithi]

Can Ursaluna attack again if you Penny it up?

[@Alloutblitzle]

Yes

[@SarangSankrithi]

@@Alloutblitzle so technically is called Ursaloopna?

[@winkproductions1]

There's a Surging Sparks win-a-box at my LGS next weekend and the set will be legal for it, I know it's hard to make predictions but is there any changes to the list you would recommend around the new cards? New cards to consider including? Counter gain and the new black Kyurem caught my eye

[@Alloutblitzle]

Counter gain is a definite add black kyurem will be more of a tech card

[@winkproductions1]

@@Alloutblitzle My LGS is has a few Drago/Pult players what is the general game plan with Kyurem as a tech option?

[@Alloutblitzle]

Kyurem early and try to take the remaining prizes looping bear

[@winkproductions1]

Is your metafy just for your current list or can we also get feedback for certain variations/tech cards?

[@Alloutblitzle]

Both :)

Do you think the Rotom that is coming out in the next set will be worth it for control?

[@Alloutblitzle]

Don't think so. Already have Eri and Luxray to hand control

[@20eyesmisfit]

@@Alloutblitzle Yeah i agree, and xerosic combo with lux just seems better.

@Alloutblitzle 9:44 how do we recover last vacuum with Leki? I'm fairly new and I don't see how we recover items

Leki's attack recovers it

😂 I kept reading Leki's attack as recovering Supporters only, dang getting any Trainer is sweet!

Played the 60 card mirror today at locals. Funny how there's no section on the mirror.

[@Alloutblitzle]

Mirror is such an uncommon matchup 😭 probably better off spending time talking about banette, moon, or gardy

[@ajrsabbagh]

@@Alloutblitzle Do you have a general idea of what's supposed to happen? I feel like one person should fang snipe and the other should Giacomo and leki the giac and then that will go on in a loop for a while... But then whoever can hold mac and cheese longer or snipe it from the other person will win. Is this at all on the right track?

[@Alloutblitzle]

One person should fang snipe until the other player sets up then they both should pivot back into chi yu

[@ajrsabbagh]

@@Alloutblitzle that's what my opponent tried but I boss leki spammed his shrew to expend all his pennys and energy.
