Does This Articuna EX Deck BREAK Pokemon TCG Pocket??

[@michaelc7418]

I think making it take 4 prize points to win instead of 3 would force these ex only decks to play some kind of 1-prize Pokemon at least.

[@jordanvespa720]

Yes I think 4 point games would be better balance wise. It would also allow for more comeback wins which is hard to do right now. Also as more cards get introduced maybe even increasing deck size to 30 would be something to consider

[@vecheeto21]

​@@jordanvespa720That would defeat the entire purpose of making a pocket version, the main attraction for this game is being snappy, Marvel Snap wouldnt be that successful if the games there took more than 10min or had decks with more than 12 cards, i strongly believe when they were making Pokemon pocket they were looking at that and i think increasing deck size & life point would hurt the game more than help it, but hey they can always introduce other game modes where you can have that, it just cant be on the main pvp mode 👍

[@jordanvespa720]

@@vecheeto21 I get that, but the shorter the games the higher the variance. Whoever draws their cards quicker to get their gameplan going first wins most of the time and there's very little room for comebacks. Snap fixes this with the snap mechanic so you can just flee when you get a bad draw, but we have nothing like that here. I think 4 prizes would still lead to fast enough games, while helping mitigate variance slightly. It would also slightly nerf the Ex spam decks as 2 knockouts on Ex's would still win, whereas single point decks would require 4 knockouts

[@humourlessjester3584]

I need to play this game for myself before I can make a solid opinion on this, but I kinda like how things are. With the normal pokemon TCG, 2 prize pokemon ruin the game a bit because they make it way too fast and you have to go out of your way to sacrifice a one prizer just to extend that a little but because the prizes in the normal TCG are 6 (an odd number) so a full 2 prizer will take 3 KOs and a one prize deck needs to be dealt with 6 times and a mixed prized deck will take 4 KOs to deal with. There is a lot more complexity in exchange for what's basically just manipulating how fast or slow the game goes which makes long games longer and short games shorter. With pocket it becomes interesting and I think it's more balanced. The difference between a one prize deck and a two prizer deck is just one KO. And you can manipulate this simply by building up your two prizer as a closer. I think it's more balanced because there is very little difference between a one prize and two prize decks and both can be on equal playing fields with each other.

[@gildebeast1314]

Misty seems overtuned compared to most other supporters. She has a higher ceiling than Brock by far, making it possible to just luck your way to victory very early. Her card applies to any water type, where nearly every other leader has two to 3 options. Her floor is also a dead card, so she gets to be frustrating for everybody. What about taking her effect and applying it to only Lapras and Gyarados? Both of them are iconic pokemon of her's that appreciate energy ramp without having the ability to end the game on the spot turn 1.

[@Kuntrolla]

@@gildebeast1314 nah

[@kinoshkiwa]

There's a way to balance this in an acceptable way. Patch in a restriction rule where you HAVE to have certain amount of pokemon in your deck. That way the chances of articuno getting a misty on the first turn is less likely. Reasons why solo Articuno have increase chances is the game programed that you'll always have at least 1 basic in your hand so if you only have one or two of the same basic pokemon without any other it's 100% going to be in your starting hand. This deck isn't broken but it is quite outrageous that a single misty on Articuno can just instantly wins the game when you get lucky.

@@grantlawrence4600 It's ok, it's just the soft launch. They messed up by bringing "ex" basic pokemon to this game, but they can easily balance it sooner rather than later without touching the core mechanics. Only Basic Ex Pokemon are the problem, not just Articuno. Mewtwo is pretty bad too.

[@silk2493]

Running the calcs, you have a 59.2% chance to get both articuno and at least one misty in your hand turn one, meaning that around 14% of your games you'll win by turn 3, 29% of your games, your opponent can fight back, and in the rare event that you haven't pulled a misty or any of your prof. oak, (statistically improbable as between those four cards there's a 91.8% chance of you getting one of them by turn one) you'll get enough energy support by turn 5. I think this deck might just be the second most consistent deck in the game behind pikachu, which functionally runs a higher consistency rate to get to your pikachu ex. TLDR, playing this deck is probably optimal.

[@starmangalaxy2001]

Honestly this type of stuff is why even though I was excited when I pulled my Blastoise EX I'm not really in a hurry to play it. Starmie feels like it's the one water Archetype that isn't dependent on misty flips. Fire also sorta has a similar problem but at least Moltres is more consistent.

[@humourlessjester3584]

I've been playing the normal pokemon TCG for a while now, and I've also been watching spragels content for that much amount of time. I'm so glad that both of them finally came together, even if it's for a different version of a game that I love.

[@bababab-rad]

Best strategy I found is an Electrode and Pikachu ex deck since every deck uses this legendary bird strategy. 70x with advantage (90 on birds) to avoid them having any potions. Free retreat on electrode let's you build up energy on pikachu ex for quick sweep

[@caojidan8913]

I'm happy that the devs remove Energy cards from the game, it just shows how powerful my solo Golduck deck used to be in PTCGO.

This makes a lot of sense since the game very much enforces minimizing pokemon in your deck for consistency

[@humourlessjester3584]

Quad decks have also been a part of pokemon TCG (decks that only have the max amount of one pokemon in their deck). Donk decks have also been a thing (decks that are theoretically able to win turn one). I see that this is still alive and well in pokemon pocket lol.

[@1Grumpymonk]

2 pika, 2 pika EX, 2 Raichu, 2 magnemite, 2 magneton, 2 Lt. Surge. Then your pokeballs, researches, Sabrina's, xspeeds or potions. Magneton can volt charge and stack energy for your raichus thunderbolt, Lt surge lets you move that energy from bench to active. Let's you thunderbolt a lot which can be cheap but not nearly as cheese as the decks in the video 😅

[@jessesutton7985]

Putting a turn lock on Misty maybe helps, but the card is pretty ridiculous in the format. You can't interact with the energy. If their bench is empty you can't try to strand the thing to play around it. Hopefully it's seen as a whoopsy and quietly excluded from the full launch.

[@sleepywes749]

The odds of getting 2 heads consecutively is 25% right? So do you lose 75% of the time when you play this even if you draw misty?

Misty really needs to be nerfed. I don't mind coin flip effects but they should have a tradeoff of some kind. Right now Misty is pure upside, even if you get nothing you don't spend anything to use the card either so there is no backfire effect, no setup required. It's just literally "flip a coin, if you get heads you win the game" Maybe make it so that you only flip 2 coins like the other coin flip cards, and for each heads you attach an energy. But I've already had matches where people just get 5 water energy in a row and there's nothing I can do

[@DiegoDeschain]

Lots of absolutely clueless people trying to provide "solutions" to the alleged Articuno problem. So, ok, let's entertain the premisse that this deck is a problem. What would be the solution? "make a deck have a minimum of 10 pokémon" is something I've seem repeated a lot on various places. And that is a suggestion that is emblematic of how some people are bad at evaluating these things and identifying what the actual problems, and therefore solutions, are. So let's identify what the actual problem is, and how this deck being good is a consequence of those problems. First, this has nothing to do with "how many pokémon you should have in your deck", absolutely nothing, there's nothing intrinsically bad about being able to run as little as 1 basic pokémon in your deck, per the actual big boys TCG, that have never, in almost 30 years of existence, had a problem with "decks being too good because they run too few pokémon". So what is the problem then? The problem is that the consistency cards are absolutely trash in this version of the game. The only pokémon search you have available, only grabs basics, and a random one at that. So if you run 3 different basics, and use a pokéball, it's almost as if the card read "you have a 66% chance of failing to find what you need". The card is absolutely awful. And there's no evolution search, no rare candy to jump from basic to stage 2, only a single consistency supporter card that you can run (prof's research), etc. That's the problem, you have absolute dog shit consistency, and in TCGs, consistency is king. So the Articuno deck comes into existence precisely to try and tackle those consistency issues. I mean, it's pretty obvious when you think about it, if pokeball grabs random shit, just run one type of basic, that way it suddenly becomes a 100% success rate card. stage 2s are slow and inconsistent? No problem, just run basics and nothing else. You're left with better consistency through and through, more free slots in your deck to run trainers... So, back at the suggestion: "make a deck have a minimum of 10 pokémon". That solution is trash, because it doesn't actually address the real problems, you have to make the currently bad decks more consistent, not force the only consistent deck to become just as inconsistent as everything else. Some additional food for thought: it's obvious that the lack of consistency is by design. They obviously wanted their casual, simpler version of the game to be less consistent, for a few reasons. First, consistency leads to staleness, fast, particularly in an enviroment with such a small card pool as this one. Second, they want the casual Timmies to be able to sometimes get lucky and get a win with their completely random pile of 20 cards against someone playing a carefully built actual deck, and the way to do it is by making everything so inconsistent that that actually becomes a possibility. Now, do we really wanna make things more consistent? If we do, we start walking towards the line that separates this game from the actual TCG. What is the balance here? That's probably not an easy answer and an interesting topic to think about. PS: let's not forget that the whole thing I wrote was based on entertaining the idea that the deck is a problem to begin with, and it's definitely too early to tell if it is. Ffs, it's been like what, a couple of days since it started to appear everywhere? People need to chill the hell out...

Yup, this is what happens when you simplify the game.

[@DiegoDeschain]

That's a very vague, ultimately meaningless statement. It doesn't address the actual reasons why mono Articuno works. The actual reason, is not the the game is simple, but rather specific decisions regarding some cards. First, the only search card available is pokéball, it doesn't search for evos, and even the basics, you get a random one, so if you run multiple lines, the card is absolute trash, because everyone knows in TCGs consistency is king. There's also no rare candies, so when you add these two factors, stage 2s tend to be extremely unreliable, no consistency. So people found a way to minimize the forced inconsistency that the designers baked into the game, you just run one line, so pokéball is 100% effective, and you run a basic, so you're not super slow and inconsistent. Misty is a card that allows for random potential high rolls, but it's not her that makes this deck, it's all the other stuff, it's recognizing the weaknesses of the current cards, and working around them. This is all actually pretty interesting in my opinion. People are just salty, because they want to win as much as if they were playing with a consistent deck, while using the most inconsistent ones. What can I tell you...
