If you take the time to watch this vlog I really appreciate it! I'm sorry it took so long you edit and post! I'm now editing the Toronto Regionals vlog and the faster we hit that 1000 like goal the faster I chug more iced coffee and push the vlog out too!

[@kieransmith3177]

Miraidon Gang! 🐉⚡ Dude it's been so incredible to watch your growth as a player. You're an inspiration to a lot of aspiring trainers out there. There's thousands of us cheering you on bro 🥳

[@Lugiarizard1996-ew9pk]

Miraidon gang indeed ⚡️⚡️, man was I so happy to see you on stream and get day two, felt like I was really there!

[@briantalley5763]

Stoked to see the vlog! You did amazing dude!! Can’t wait to go to a regional next year. Good luck in the future events! Gotta challenge and cup coming up soon here.

[@ArcGG]

DUDE THATS SO COOL! i really enjoy your tournament vlogs and its so cool to see you made it on stream this time can't wait to see you keep climbing 🔥

[@breh4149]

Finally! The vlog we’ve all been waiting for and you definitely did not disappoint. You can definitely see a huge quality improvement from your recent videos. Great job on being on stream and reaching day 2! You can’t be disappointed at a top 10% finish so congrats there! Can’t wait to see your Toronto vlog! Would also love to see a video in the future where you go over different miraidon ex deck versions as well as strategies surrounding said decks. #miraidongang

[@banaanman0227]

One of the greatest pokemon tournement videos ive ever watched. I started following this channel earlier in 2022/2023, idk exactly when, but you are partially the reason why I’m considering to start playing pokemon TCG at locals. Love your content! Just wanted to say this, thanks!

[@TCG976]

I’m so glad you got to meet Luke and Brent! I played Brent round 6, there both Awsome players

[@bryancaswell9538]

I’ve been waiting for this since the regional ended! Great video, you played great. Don’t beat yourself up too much on the misplays, it happens, we’re only human. Can’t wait to see how you do in the next one!

[@christjereconuguid289]

Didn't know you were Filipino! Congrats on your run man!

[@kbreezy6726]

Great video man! I was the “max rarity” charizard you played in day 2, and what a fun series we had! Great meeting and playing you, it was like playing a game with friends, very chill! Keep up the great videos and keep that energy bro!!!

[@jollygunner]

You held true to your pinky promise in Toronto! The vlog was great! I look forward to seeing more of these, friend. Keep up the grind and push the pace! 💪🏽💪🏽

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

Had to! Ahaha it was in the back of my head all week! Gotta get this Toronto Vlog chopped up and uploaded next 🙏🏻 thanks for the continued support fam ❤️

[@ElevenBricks]

Miraidon gang! Always cool to see people experience at these events on film, even if its painful talking about the losses. The stormy mountain tech is pretty cool, ive been using it myself on live for that path bump.

[@user-vj8vs8yn1d]

Yo I have been waiting so long for this video and congratulations that you went on stream and also miraidon gang

[@Civ33]

nice commentary, watched the whole thing and was interested to hear about your build and matchups. My friend and I recently got into pokemon TCG his first deck was palkia structure deck and mine was Ampharos structure deck, but I deconstructed and reconstructed it into a miraidon deck and I'm still working out the build, which I've been experimenting a lot with on TCG live, especially with the introduction of paradox rift. I wonder if it would be worth adding a copy of jirachi for lost box and iron valiant, as well as other back row snipers. Also, Iron hands is an obvious target for experimenting with, which is a nice option for single prize decks and is easy to build up with the flaffy/generator accelerators, just comes down to what to take out. also, no need to kick yourself over day 2 misplays. Haven't done any pokemon tournaments, but from my experience with yugioh, those tournaments are exhausting even after 1 day, takes a lot of effort to stay focused and play perfect through the whole thing

[@Lu6azz.]

It’s finally here! Love the video, me and my mew had a score of 5-2-1 and day two I didn’t do as hot and had a score of 3-3-2 and placed 37th but still had a blast! Was awesome to meet you irl, you were super chill

[@Sockhosk]

Keep up the good work! Started watching you about a month ago and I’m loving the content. Also have you seen the tsareena ex control deck!

[@VGCBenji]

Miridon gang and I play the VGC 😂 I like watching vlogs to hype myself up before upcoming tournaments (Portland) and I’ve even done one. You definitely inspired me to vlog Portland, thanks!

[@dsc209]

I watched the recording of your steam, the commentary was insightful yet critical of your plays, which would be funny to imagine your inner thoughts sounding like that during matches. 😋

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

Ohhh man ahaha, what a memory! I’ll definitely do a stream reaction kinda thing down the road!

[@andrewjim00]

MIRAIDON GANG! just waiting on a few cards in the mail to complete my Miraidon deck. I hope it’s not too late to play it! Great job on making it to day 2! GG🤝🏼

[@HeyClickster]

Miraidon Gang! 🤜🤛 You are the whole reason I got into the TCG and started playing Miraidon ex. Love the content, and perhaps world finalist in the making?❤

[@rayjaymariano3437]

Yooo it was cool meeting you at the Toronto Regionals and seeing your reaction to my galarian perrserker deck lol

[@joshuaaguilar1288]

Loved the video! Very informative

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 thanks for watching!

[@KaceyMorrell]

MIRAIDON GANG, absolutely love your vlogs man, can't wait for the Toronto one! Wishing you all the best

[@Nexasxiv]

BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE LETS GOO

[@AlamTrejo]

Also I love every single one of your videos bro! Keep up the good work

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

Thanks fam! I really appreciate the support and comments :)

[@Dough8v]

miraidon gang! bro the way you edited the end of day 1 made it seem like it was joever... huge congrats on your placement 👍

[@mrdommm5980]

Yes! My fav. tipe of vids! Btw great video

[@johnny.b.]

Miraidon Gang!! Honestly playing a tweaked Miraidon deck myself Don’t sweat the misplays too much bro. That’s the best way to learn. These recaps are awesome for remembering and things to practice for the next one. You’re building your endurance for future Regionals

[@Luard]

Miraidon Gang! I'm gonna be playing my first regional here in the Philippines with a Miraidon deck as well and this video definitely hyped me up for the upcoming tournament. I've played in different tournaments on a different card game but this will be my very first for pokemon tcg and I'm looking forward to it.

[@TheLegendOfTommy]

Miraidon gang! Hey man glad you filled your goals at least. Playing Pokémon can be mentally tiring especially 2 days in a row. You should be proud of your performance :)

[@judfps]

maraidon gang, also felt your pain so much with those simple misplays like forgetting to squak, those always suck but congrats on day 2

[@jeffreytang4406]

Miraidon gang!!! So excited that you completed the video. Glad to follow along.

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 me too lol! Thanks for your patience and for watching!

[@darkrai0837]

You are such a good guy man, I would've definitley just called judge on the kid I haven't watched the full video yet but I'm hoping for you!!

[@jbond1k]

Miraidon gang! I can't wait to see the Toronto vlog, keep pumping out the awesome content!!!

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 you know it 👌🏻 hoping it’s done soon!

[@maximummax29]

It was so cool to see you in day 2 streams

[@gabrielperez182]

Miraidon Gang!! Yoo I saw a dude at my local place to play and he marks the used abilities with upsidedown condition markers. Not sure if it's allowed in tournaments but I loved the idea of being able to mark used abilities that way you never forget! 🔥

[@juddtrazo2391]

MIRAIDON GANG! This is awesome! Will have my 1st National tournament next year! Wohhooooo!!!!!!

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

Thanks for watching! And heck yea! I’m sure you’ll have a great time 👌🏻

[@user-lo2gf5se9d]

it aint a true journey without the highs and lows, also im new here, just wanna say you revived the kid inside of me to get back into pokemon cards after finishing college ^_^

[@buck4bryan]

Bro, congrats for making it there, bro. I've always wanted to be in a tournament. Regionals or like any tournament but I can't cause like. I don't really have the points for it. I just go to titans and have tournaments there. But congrats on making it and I hope you make it a lot more.

[@Mysticalzelda]

Yes I've been waiting for this video :).

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

Thanks for your patience! Hope you enjoyed it :)

[@Mysticalzelda]

[@hunterpasson8374]

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

😂😂😂🙏🏻🙏🏻 I’ve brainwashed myself 😇

[@YoungBigMac]

I watched the vlog however I have bias against Miraidon 😂 lost box charizard deck I’m playing

[@ArloBoss7423]

Miraidon Gang! This video makes me wanna play Miraidon ex so badly lol

[@fluffyox]

miraidon gang! (even though I'm a filthy lost box player 😬)

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

😂😂😂 it’s okay if you watch my videos your the only type of lost box players I can kick it with 💪🏻

[@soully9387]

do you think itd be a good idea to play the new iron hands in that deck? Or would it be a waste of space

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

Yea! Huge W for the Miraidon deck! 1-2 copies needed fixes all the bad/trickier matchups like Lost Box, Gardy, etc

[@havibav1342]

[@fangirl.animations1626]

How does the prize table work? How do you get the points and what are they from?

[@SneakerTalkTCG]

You can get tickets for the prize walk from playing in side events on say 0, 1 and 2! Various activities related to TCG, GO, and VGC

[@fangirl.animations1626]

@@SneakerTalkTCG Oh wow. Really? Are the side events something you can sign up for while you’re there or you have to sign up beforehand? Never gone to regionals before. Hoping to go to the LA one!
