I Gabes list there was a devo, but in the deck list picture there was no devo

[@Alex-mq4gr]

in the later stages of the game maybe it was better to move the damage on the ralts/manaphy instead of the gardy because this way if he healed the ralts you could take a ko on the active with munki's ability and then another ko on what gets promoted, but if he healed the flutter you could attack flutter too to get ko on active + ralts (would have worked even if the ralts evolved) edit: also around minute 34 the player on the right used munky with flutter in the active, but that didn't really matter in the end for the final result

[@alebarbato3614]

I think that 1 night streatcher and 1 rod is a good pick for garde

[@EggsForDessert]

Should you be attacking their monki in this match up to prevent them throwing damage back on your board rather than hitting their draw engine?

[@Draw4card]

Great information video 🫡 just not fun to watch a Garde mirror 😂

[@0neAlex]

why in the 34:10 move damage from kirlia to ralts if the flutermane and the munkidori is the active spot ? flutermane should cancel the hability of munkidori

[@harryjackson4682]

Flutters not in the active?

[@4ndroidG]

I think you are right. There was no dark energy on the other Munki so I don't think he should have been able to move any damage counters that turn.

[@gunnermartineau5837]

You are correct, good catch!

[@don945646]

I think your timestamp is off, I don't see anything wrong.

[@gunnermartineau5837]
