Playing against Hisuian Zoroark VSTAR is SCARY!

[@PokeJose34]

I also agree with other commenters. The production of these videos and the knowledge for players brings incredible value to the community. Thank you.

[@nightshade4502]

I love the production of these videos. Thanks for the work you put in.

[@austinkrigbaum730]

I always love how these paper tcg videos look they have fantastic production quality and are incredibly informative for someone like me that wants to go from collecting to playing. This Zoroark deck looks absolutely incredible at least I love how it plays. One question though, what is the camera setup like? The audio setup I assume is the headset but I'm curious about how you get the top down view. Is there a special type of camera stand?

[@samdeleon8121]

Awesome video! I love the commentary over the games by both players!

[@beelzebozo]

@27:01 there is actually one small reason to hold off on evolving to VSTAR in this format in decks that run Diancie ASR (like yours!) as its Princess’s Curtain ability only protects the Basic V from gust. But other than that, yeah, it’s pretty silly

[@fastmaker9091]

Especially in decks that need multiple energy attached to attack

[@matthewsteen175]

Huge shout out to the presentation of these new tabletop videos!!! These are the most entertaining and engaging table top videos I've seen for ptcg. They respect my time while providing a ton of great commentary. What did we do to deserve these videos?!?!

[@danielhenderson8000]

Arceus Inteleon almost feels wrong. Two of the best engines in the game...and nothing but fueling themselves. So ridiculous, but also kinda feels..soulless? Props on an amazing deck, but not sure how it sits with me. Hisuian Zoroark and Gengar, though, oooooh boy does that deck look fun and fantastic! Bunch of ghost types, damage manipulation, lots of draw and graveyard recursion. Love it!

[@SilverShadow02]

It's not supposed to be a valid deck for very long since we're supposed to have rotation happen in the fall, but with the delay in rotation many decks are going to have too much synergy and be somewhat broken for a while.

[@daoneandonlystevy]

@@SilverShadow02 Rotation isn't happening until January 2023 unfortunately

[@carlosschlyter]

@@SilverShadow02 I think it'll still be possible to make it work after the rotation. Just have to find some replacements.

[@asfaloth8758]

Arceus Vstar’s greatest weakness is its damage ceiling. It hits 230 max with belt, just short of OHKOing vstars, while Palkia, Mew (with power tablet) and the new Giratina can all reliably attempt OHKOs in a single turn.

Chip is doing great work

[@d4c_reznor470]

It's faithful how the attack is Zoroark GX with an extra step; instead of just having Pokemon in play, now they must also have damage counters.

[@STRU_TV]

the gengar synergy is amazing!

[@6CornDawg9]

Love how zoroark is a colorless pokemon. Take advantage of different typings and playstyles I might try a magma basin variant seeing how it would synergize with moltres and radiant charizard

[@nubcake5846]

New sub here! Started off purely collecting Pokemon cards at first, then watched the NAIC finals because I was bored and now I'm super invested into learning how to play the PTCG! 😂 used to play Yugioh but now I find PTCG way more fun and engaging and not to mention, just nicer to admire at too! Really really love the tabletop view and commentary too as it helps with my learning of the game!

[@Linspiration14]

Great video! Can't wait to use this deck as two of my favorite pokemon are featured!

[@brandonthorpe6339]

The editing on this video is insane

[@Pokezard123]

At 33:18 you did 300 damage with a double turbo energy attached I can't tell If I'm missing something but wouldn't you do 280 instead?

[@joelbolt88]

The deck list includes manaphy and no oranguru. Was this a typo or do you recommend going with manaphy instead?

[@ramonatalizio7315]

So good man! Love these videos! I just built this Hisuian Zoroark. Love pulling off the combo

[@WesOPTCG]

Wow new edit now we can see anything when you play the TCG keep going ppl los mejores!!

[@unclejohnny5225]

Insanely well done video that showcases this Zoroark deck beautifully. Thanks for the content!

[@rachelmullins815]

Cool vid as always I think the attack is Baneful curse from the translations I’ve seen, friend of mine had built the deck we’ve been testing it’s a solid card, can’t wait for lost origin release

[@sammybo5454]

Love the tabletop gameplay! But How many gengar and the thing that moves damage counters do you have in the deck? And How many energy do you have?

[@PedrozBrumz]

God, I love the new tabletop editing style, my only gripe is the font used this time. Why not use "Gill Sans"? It's pretty much identical to the one used on the cards themselves. Just a minor thing really, please keep them coming!

andrew what sleeves would you recommend that don't dust up? i use purple dragonshield sleeves and for some reason they collect dust so quickly compared to my other colors

[@Spectre2893]

I've had no problems with the black/jet sleeves

[@TrickyGym]

Dragon shield black are my go to. If you are finding grime on your dragon shields quickly it’s because of humidity or sweaty palms

[@v3p10]

use sky blue, been using those for my ice rider deck and they collect some dust after a lot of playing, but definitely not a lot

Oranguru, I guess? I think he is prioritizing consistency over techs.

Would Eternatus Vmax be good with Zoroark Vstar? Edit: I LOVE the tabletop videos

Eternatus VMax only gives you extra spaces on your bench if all the pokemon in play on your side of the field are Dark Pokemon.

Video 6 asking to use my custom deck. Can you use my custom deck? It's called, The Groundon Smash. It Includes: 4 Groundons (with the Magma Volcano Attack: Discard the top 5 cards of your deck. This attack does 80 damage for each energy card you discarded this way.), 2 Crushing Hammers, 4 Energy Retrievals, 4 Potions, 1 Bea, 4 Pokémon Center Lady's, 4 Bede's, 1 Cook, 1 Special Stone Energy (This Special energy reduces 20 damage after applying Weakness and Resistance), 35 Stone/Fighting Energy. I hope you enjoy, and have a SMASHING good time... hee hee.

[@lewiscollier7882]

Can you do a video on Dialga Blastoise please

[@matthewkuscienko4616]

If you're talking about the new Blastoise that can accelerate 6 energies, I personally don't it's very good. Not only is it a stage 2, meaning it needs a lot of help getting set up, but it forces you to lose a turn when you proc it's ability, which is not ideal. Given that you need 2 turns to set it up minimum (this is assuming you're playing rare candy to skip an evolution), being set back an additional turn means you're not going to be attacking until your third turn at best, which is simply too slow for the current format

[@lewiscollier7882]

@@matthewkuscienko4616 I give myself I challenge of trying to use only metal decks or metal attackers , found that blastoise , rare candy and irida can set up like you said turn two or three

Where are you getting 230 and 280 damage from its 50x each of your Pokémon with damage counters on it so when you had 5 Pokémon with damage you were swinging for 250 not 230. Same with when you had 6 Pokémon with damage it was 300 not 280. Am I missing something?
