Cool battle! I knew sneasel was tough but man scizor can throw down!

[@Christopher91825]

Love seeing old school decks keep the videos best KZbinr ever used to play these when I was younger crazy a lot of them cards are expensive now days

[@holon_phantom]

I'm so glad I kept mine this whole time

[@Christopher91825]

@holon_phantom I still have a few of them left there just gonna keep going up in value old Pokemon cards are the best can't beat artwork on them

[@Christopher91825]

To be fair, I'm sure most retro decks today still cost less to build than they would have when new. Ptcg retro library has an article about the 2011 Worlds format that mentions this while talking about the preceding rotation: "In addition, several pokemon in the HGSS expansions shot up in price overnight, the most drastic of them being Yanmega Prime. This card was a 4-of in multiple different archetypes, and went very quickly from being a $5 card to an $80 card." Nowadays, Yanmega Prime is a $10 card. And this is after 14 years of inflation and a massive collector's hype. If Rocket's Sneasel ex costs $175 today, I don't think I WANT to know how expensive it would have been to build DragTrode in 2005!

@@Christopher91825 Would I be able to see these lists somewhere?

[@Sp00nRX78]

Would it be difficult to put each format in its own playlist? Love the content ❤

[@Charmaster04]

I second this motion. Although it's not inconvenient to search for the Worlds format videos with the channel search feature, it gets more complicated with the Wizards of the Coast formats, especially with Rocket-Legendary Collection/Rocket Onward, because, well, it's gone by both of those names on this channel.

[@holon_phantom]

Good idea! That shouldn't be too hard

0:26 Rumor has it that Holon Phantom booked a month of his own therapy sessions after the incident.

[@holon_phantom]

To be fair it was really funny lol

[@PNWer_of_Souls]

WOTC era was so balanced...

[@holon_phantom]

Right??

[@kstanni87]

That Sneasel deck is doing well unlike the Chansey battle if i remember correctly.

[@holon_phantom]

Yup, a lot better this time

[@PunkMaquiavel]

Once again Sneasel showing that it's a though deck to face

[@holon_phantom]

It was banned for a reason!

[@MazterP28]

I have the scizor deck built. I’m rebuilding the Sneasel deck in physical form

[@holon_phantom]

Sneasel was fun to use but I don't know if I'm going to keep it or take it apart

[@Charmaster04]

@@holon_phantomOut of curiosity, what's the barrier? Do you need the sleeves for something else? Did you have to borrow cards from other decks?

[@holon_phantom]

@@Charmaster04 I didn't really borrow cards from other decks, but they're cards I can use for other decks that I want more than this one
