    Long as you know what you want to play it’s not too difficult. I wanted Mewtwo from the beginning so I obviously started with that until I had the deck built. Now I’m pulling in Char to try and bling out my Sabrina’s. Char has a lot of cards in it that I wouldn’t be upset to find, like ex egg, star, molt, nd char, special meowth would also be neat. It really does seem to have some of the better overall pool imo after you’re done building your initial deck.

    Not sure I agree with Charizard for new players, it’d be my last pick.
    I think Mewtwo supports the most competitive decks (Venasaur, Weezing/Poison, Dragonite, Mewtwo, Articuno, Gengar)
    Pikachu can make some rock solid electric decks. Pikachu EX doesn’t require many other rare cards to play. Also the aggro electric lets you beat those bots quickly!Charizard requires Moltress to work; though I will admit Starme is real good.

      One thing that kind of doesn’t matter imo is competitive viability. There is no ranked system or solid meta so I don’t want to only make a recommendation based on “meta” decks.
      All that being said I think all the packs are strong choices and if you like those cards in Mewtwo then go for it ✌🏼✌🏼🤠🤠

    my general strategy was "open until the risk of duplicate is too high" for a new player a pack like pikachu have some real eh cards, it is hard to use arcanine, and jigglytuff well sometimes, and they dont help as much in the Ai battles, which is another important point, have the "key card" of some decks, let you rent them, that makes your life easier against the AI challenges so you can get those hourglasses faster, some key cards are trainers like blaine and koga, and others are the EXs like venasaur and blastoise

  • @Zutentu
    @Zutentu 4 дні тому

    I would focus on the ex cards you need for decks you are interested in. And ignore trainers. They are just two diamond cards, so as long as you don't necessarily need the full art version of the supporters, hunting down the ex cards will probably save you the most time to get to your competitive deck. I really want Zard, so I might go for that. But if I had to recommend one, I would say Mewtwo. The Mewtwo+Guardi decks are not only good, they also only have one EX Card in it (two copies), as most other top decks (thus far) need 2 EX cards (pika+zapdos, starmie+articuno, zard+moltres). Plus you also get a chance at all expensive cards for the weezing+Dnite deck as well as the venusaur deck (requiring 0 vs 1 ex card respectively!)

    Its tragic. I was heavily considering a Starmie/Pidgeot deck. But i hold a deep affinity towards Dragonite. That being said i mostly feel i resonate with the Pika packs. And would be much happier all around getting anything from there. It just leaves me wondering a plan of action. Do i reroll for Starmie, throw some cash as the Pika packs and slowly use the dailies to try and snipe dnite and pidgeot?

      The ex cards in Pocket are adjusted to be lower power compared to how they are in the TCG, and the general card design is closer to the early years of the TCG with touches of modern philosophies. As for patches, nobody knows for sure, but seeing as this is digital only, it's possible they can ala Hearthstone as an example
