Such a cool deck ty for sharing this 🔥

[@timothysowa531]

Great local spotlight :)

[@janamb88]

I love the mix of 1/2/3 copies. People really get caught up in the 4 of meta

[@seanpleticha2658]

Great video sir!

[@dannynguyen6165]

Looking good brother. Congrats on all the Dubbs

[@Gai517]

Wow!

[@antonybrisson4090]

Love that pete combo

[@dannynguyen6165]

lol SEAN is the truth I played against him in a 1K at NRG a while back. We were both running emerald steel discard. I got the best of him that day. But he made the right tweaks to the deck He’s an awesome opponent. You’re not gonna find a nice guy to play with And he keeps it fun Good stuff Sean!! See ya around man.

[@seanpleticha2658]

Damn, honored. Thnx brother! Definitely will see you soon!

@@seanpleticha2658 i'm gonna tweek and run your list for a while. lol 'trash discard' and being annoying... let me GET LIKE YOU

[@theKonamacona]

Love seeing a real mixture of 2/3 copies, I think it's important to not get drawn into that 4 copy mentality (especially when you're 60+) - interested to see how the meta shapes moving forward in regard to card quantities

[@boopybooplin6317]

Did you play pokemon/yugioh before lorcana? The card ratios are telling me you did 🧐 Deck ratio and random cards reminds me of my steelsong list that got me two top 4 so really loving your deck!

[@seanpleticha2658]

Never played either of those card games. Just started playing tcg card games half way through digimon. And now lorcana. Thnx brotha, appreciate that. It's not for everyone lol but it worked wonders so who knows.

[@neuromorph]

is a decklist available anywhere?

[@AladdinsCastle23]

I'll try to see if I can get a list

[@AladdinsCastle23]

Here you go, sorry for the delay! dreamborn.ink/decks/D4QG5KgbLhKQl0AOEG2Q

[@neuromorph]

any information about what meta he faced at these stores?

[@AladdinsCastle23]

"It's on melee? I don't remember all of them... hmmm EG - top 8 amber/steel, top 4 blurple, top 2 ruby/am Primetime - top 8 ruby/am, top 4 mufasa (ketchup/mustard), top 2 ruby/sapphire NRG - top 8 ruby/sapphire, top 4 amber/steel, top 2 ruby/sapphire . That's off my memory"

[@Vynleuwe]

This is 66 cards if i count correctly? Why 66? Seems inconsistent.

[@AladdinsCastle23]

It is 66, he does mention that he likes the variety of certain cards so it is difficult to cut. He likes having the option in specific matchups so sometimes he has 2ofs but didn't find any issues with inconsistency

[@azarsgp]

Unless your playing a specific card like Orion or Battle of wits, playing over the minimus is always wrong.

[@reybosque6205]

@@azarsgp Is it though? Idk if you keep up with deck lists in any way but even some of the "pros" have gone over 60. Sounding like a hater that his 66 is doing a bit better than your 60 🤔

[@AladdinsCastle23]

@@azarsgp"always wrong" but ends up winning multiple events?

[@azarsgp]

Idk if you keep up with deck lists in any way but MOST of the "pros" have never gone over 60. If you go look at all the top8 list of the over 100 player tournaments, added up you MIGHT find 5 total that play over 60. 🤔

He is annoying, he's not wrong

[@AladdinsCastle23]

lol positive vibes Patrick! 😂

Calls me annoying but got a free stitch haha. Best friends for you.

Dude sounds super chill wth haha

​@antonybrisson4090 he's the guy that got the 4th stitch from me. He's just being a troll hahaha 😆

@@antonybrisson4090 sorry didn't mean to come off badly, Sean is my best friend. I think I would weird him out if I said nice things about him lol

[@azarsgp]

Trash is right.

[@seanpleticha2658]

Lol.. trash wins games apparently 😁.

[@azarsgp]

How big were these tournaments? Whats the skill level there? A good player can win with a bad deck, and a bad player can win with a bad deck too. Just cause he won doesn’t mean it’s optimal.

[@daniellekent3058]

@@azarsgp you could maybe say that if he only won once. Not three times.

[@azarsgp]

Being results oriented with a mathematically insignificant sample size is error.

[@reybosque6205]

Disagree with this deck tech...oh 100%

[@seanpleticha2658]

Lol I named the deck after your common phrase. "That's a trash card" 😂
