Stellar Crown Pre-Release Tips & Tricks! PLUS OPENING!

[@NikkieNintendo]

played two prereleases this weekend: 1. can't hear the word kofu anymore. 2. ledian seemed nice but was useless in both releases 3. tegaturtle ex combined with sparkling Cristal was a very good idea that made me win the second tournament 👍

[@TripleBtcg]

1. I'm 90% sure you won't hear Kofu ever again 😂 2. Ledian was . . . Ya Def kinda mid a 1-1 line for pivot/gust is all I'd ever run 3. TORTLE!

[@Jab-zm4ph]

@@TripleBtcg someone say tortle

[@TripleBtcg]

Are you Tortley enough for the Tortle club? 🐢

[@chenyong9027]

The Crabominable combo . . . The 2 Pokemon do not exactly include "Kofu's " in their names but you just KNOW they are Kofu's personal Pokemon. I personally think they are more like Owner's Pokemon than most Owner's Pokemon 🤣

[@TripleBtcg]

@@chenyong9027 Kofu is just ahead of the times 😉

[@pokelover02]

Thank you so much! This was super comprehensive and relieved my anxiety for my first-ever pre-release tomorrow. I've only played the Pokémon TCG with one person at home, never at an event. And it's been a while too... 😅I owe you a sub! ✨ Also, I LOVE your strawberry shirt! 🍓

[@TripleBtcg]

Youre welcome glad I could help take some of the stress out of it so you can focus on having fun and meeting people in the community! . . . It's a pretty good shirt 😂🍓

[@jnunez06]

Going to a local prerelease today, these videos help out soo much

[@TripleBtcg]

Love to hear it ❤️ Good luck in your event today 😀

[@darkusdx]

Thanks for the great informative video, will be helpful especially going into my first ever Pokemon prerelease 😁👍

[@TripleBtcg]

No worries bud, glad I could help! Good luck at your prerelease would love to hear how you go! 😀

[@darkusdx]

@@TripleBtcg Just had my first prerelease today and ended up with 1 tie and 2 losses after 3 best of three rounds. The tips you mentioned were helpful but sadly got no good pulls both in the prerelease kit (to add into the base 40 card deck provided) and 3 Stellar Crown prize packs afterwards 😭 it was a cool experience though

[@voewg]

Thank you for making this video! I’m going to my first ever pre release event Wednesday and my first time playing the physical card game and this is by far the best preparation video on the internet! 👍👍👍

[@TripleBtcg]

This comment genuinely made my day, love hearing when my videos are able to help people 😀 Thats so exciting! Best of luck at the pre-release would love to hear how you go! 😀

[@DBboon]

Hey man just wanted to say thanks for the guide! Gon go to a pre release 2hrs from now nd hoping for some gud pulls

[@TripleBtcg]

You're welcome! 😀 I hope it helps you at your event and would love to hear how you go. Sending my luck your way for some good pulls 🤞🤞

[@DBboon]

@@TripleBtcg Just got back from the tourney and placed 3rd out of 25 participants while rocking a bouffalant/drifblim deck! Tnx for the gud luc! My pulls however were not as forgiving, got only 1 hit out of 9 packs opened huhu. Had a ton of fun at the event still and will probably join another PR when the time comes!

[@TripleBtcg]

That's awesome, solid run! 😀 Ya sometimes the packs are like that haha The event I went to was similar I got a FA Kofu but the bouffalant ledian kit but 2 joltik so that was pretty sick haha. Should be another prerelease in November for Surging Sparks! 😀

[@YYdsAceGrubi]

Thanks for sharing this, Buddy. I have my 1st Pre-Release on Saturday and I’m super excited.

[@TripleBtcg]

That's so exciting! 🎉 Good luck bud but more importantly have fun! 😀

[@raydelmartinez2905]

Great overview.

[@TripleBtcg]

Cheers! 😀 Glad you enjoyed it and I hope it helps you at your prerelease 😀

[@joshshaw7197]

Thanks for the help, brother. i know what to look out for this weekend for my first prerelease

[@TripleBtcg]

You're welcome! :) Good luck at your pre-release would love to hear how you go! Are you new to the game or just first time going to a pre-release? :)

[@ChonkyToad]

Any tips for some good combos to use? For example, Underdepths + Any Tera? Haven’t seen most of this set lol

[@TripleBtcg]

For at a pre-release? Underdepths and terapagos would go hard, other than that not much, thats also dependent on you pulling to hard to get pieces from 4 packs though haha. Main call would be focus on your combos from the kit and find little additions to improve it's consistency and as secondary attackers if you happen to hit them. Most the EX's in the set are unfortunately . . . not great lol

[@JoshLynagh]

Very helpful video, cheers for this. Though it's Carracosta*

[@TripleBtcg]

I've always had it in my head it was carrascotta like a terracotta warrior, and I will die on the hill 😉 . . . Even though it's clearly not written that way 😂

[@JoshLynagh]

@@TripleBtcg haha okay fair enough. I had a friend who would pronounce Magikarp as "Maggy-Karp" ignoring the fact that it's literally a 'magic' 'karp' lol. Also your video was my help going into my first prerelease in years, and it wasn't enough - I got Drifblim but won only 2/4 haha. Next time maybe.

[@Alex-mq4gr]

I've already done a prerelease last week but I had such a great time that I think I will do one this week too 😅. Looking forward to opening some more stellar crown packs 👀

[@TripleBtcg]

Love to hear it! What kit did you get the first time around? 😀

[@nickfanzo]

Dragon shield has major quality control issues lately. I got split sleeves in boxes and even miscut sizes . They aren’t the same as they were in 2005- for example when they shuffled like butter. Now they grip and have sharp shuffling feel as well I prefer katana now

[@TripleBtcg]

Totally fair opinion to have. I've never experienced issues with them though and prefer dragonshield.

[@nickfanzo]

@@TripleBtcg i guess but I went to the prerelease today and bought a box of dragon shields and half the box was the wrong size 😂 they were Japanese sized 😂

[@TripleBtcg]

@@nickfanzo that's pretty messed up and i've never heard of that happening before. I thought you just said you use Katana though? So taking this with a grain of salt

[@nickfanzo]

@@TripleBtcg they don’t have them at my LGs for a good price they’re way too much $ there for katana. So I picked up dragonshield and they had to replace my box as soon as I opened it.

[@Lqqkas]

Simply pull two terapagos, a briar and the bouffalant deck and go 5-0 like I did.

[@TripleBtcg]

Any suggestions on how to do that? 😜

[@ozzy1941]

Thanks for the great content! This is my first pre-release, I'll play it on the 13th, I'm nervous because I only play TCG Online. Brazilian boosters only come with 6 cards, so we have to be very lucky when it comes to putting together a good deck. Hugs from Brazil.

[@TripleBtcg]

Thank you for the great comment! 😀 That's so crazy there's only 6 cards I'm your packs??? Are the setlists the same and just different odds of hitting rarities in a pack? Like 3 common, 2 uncommon, 1 rare or how does it work? 🤔 That would definetly make prerelease a VERY different experience! I wonder if there's more than 4 packs??? Would love to find out after you go 😀 Hugs from the Canadian in Koala Country 🐨 🇨🇦

[@ozzy1941]

@@TripleBtcg If I’m not mistaken, in the pre-release we get 6 boosters and a pre-built deck of 23 cards. Then we build a 40-card deck and play. Our boosters usually come with 4 commons, one uncommon, and one rare/trainer/item/energy. In a booster box with 36 packs, sometimes there are only 3 ultra rares/special illustration cards. We need to open a lot of boosters to complete a set. Special cards are very expensive here; Charizard ex - 199/165 is being sold for $160 when converting the currency. But our boosters only cost $2 because they contain fewer cards. At least we have translated cards manufactured domestically, which helps with distribution to almost every market or newsstand.

[@TripleBtcg]

Whoa so crazy to hear it's so different! Is it cheaper to have single cards imported?

[@nickfanzo]

Play the turtle

[@TripleBtcg]

If you pull one, sure!

[@YoshiTheRedstoner]

too late buddy

[@TripleBtcg]

They're on until next weekend buddy :)

[@hannahbabka]

Some countries still are waiting for their PreRelease products. Not too late at all.

[@TripleBtcg]

I hope the video helps you at yours @hannahbabka 😀
