I stopped watching Pokemon TCG content (including yours) for a really long time. With Pocket coming up, I thought I'd check out TCG content again, just for kicks. I'm not sure why but all the other content creators just didn't seem to have the right vibes to pull me in BUT I remember watching a great content creator (you) but the name wasn't coming to me. I vaguely remember the first video of yours that I watched was the Detective TCG set review and that was FIVE YEARS AGO. Took me a whole day of searching and scrolling but I'm glad I found you again! I love the deep commentary you give, the way you seem so comfortable piloting pretty much ANYTHING, your understanding of the current metas. All delivered in a casual, cozy tone. I missed your voice, Tricky. Never stop grinding.
So happy I found you again!!!! I ended up having to start a new UA-cam account forgot the name of your channel haven’t watched in like a year and tried finding u forever then I remembered u used to work for derium… maybe u still so idk but I found you through that!!! Glad to be back deff my favorite player!!
My win rate with this deck is about the same I have with regular Charizard Ex. HOWEVER, this one is much more fun to play! Thank you. Pure Charizard is sooooo boring.
I play Charizard because is the best deck out there but I am searching for decks that match my playstyle and honestly I play better with a deck I enjoy no matter how bad it is
Been playing different types of Charizard with Heavy Dusknoir, and this approach is great for several reasons, the main one being Arven sometimes isn't enough. As shown in ur 3 games, and testing it myself, the Arc isn't really necessary. I swapped it for a Roxanne + Forest Seal stone
The opening sequence of 2 Duskulls on the bench with a Rare Candy and 2 Dusknoirs in hand plus a Night Stretcher is hard to beat. I swapped in a Manaphy to protect the bench and a Cyllene to help bring back more Rare Candies. I took out one Poke Stop and the Lost Vacuum. I also added Briar, but haven't used it yet. Might take Briar out and add one more Super Rod. I like this deck a lot. It can stall sometimes, but you have to play it a few times to learn how to make the right pivots.
Tricky gym, I have an idea for an addition to gym leader challenge dark type if it hasn’t already been added. The pokemon is grimmsnarl from stellar crown with the attack goad n grab, which lets you bring one of your opponents benched pokemon and put it in the active, then deal 160 damage to the pokemon you just brought up. Hope this helps
I cooked up a similar deck with only Arceus Vstar and Dusknoir, which took me to Arceus season during the Shrouded Fable meta. So as someone who's spent a lot of time playing this type of feck, this was a huge W video. Thanks for improvising on my deck 🎉
This is absolutely wild. Thats exactly why they should ban the dusk line. Cause it cant be, that no matter what good of a board state you have, the opponent just self ko‘s some Mons to fast forward two turns, it’s just absolutely disgusting
I’m gonna try Grand Tree over Prime Catcher. Not needing the full combo for a stage 2 when you’re trying to spam Dusknoir seems good. Might conflict with PokeStop too much but worth a shot
This is proof to all those saying the dusk line is good for the game. You can just ignore your opponents actions and play to your own game plan now with Zard..already one of the most powerful decks in format even before dusk came out.
Here's the combo: you need 2 duskull and 1 arc vstar on bench and a rescue stretcher or rare candy in hand. 1: Starbirth for rare candy/rescue stretcher and grand tree 2: Use tree to evolve one of the duskulls to dusknoir and use it. Sending dusknoir to the discard. 3: rescue stretcher to get noir back in hand 4: rare candy to re use noir I'm actually gonna lab this to see if it goes deeper.
this deck is great and pretty fun, been playing it and made 2-0-1 and 3-0 at local leagues and 3-2 to top 7 at a challenge today. squawk is a total meme thou, occupies precious bench space, so i changed it to thorton to great results (if the opponent knows what you're doing and kos arceus, you can immediatly get it back and vstar to turn the game around) briar might find a way into the list... its overestimated for sure, but maybe... maybe...
I'm just getting into the game and I have been playing Charizard ex with a splash of Dusknoir as I only have the basic decks provided by the game, but is Counter-Catcher better than Boss's Orders? Also what do you think about Maximum Belt as the ACESPEC?
Counter Catcher "activates" alongside dusk being outo KOd, + you get the damage buff by both ur opponent taking a prize of the Self KO + the damage Dusknoir sets. Therefore id advise to use other Ace Spec like Prime Catcher, Unfair Stamp or even Heros Cape
After only a turn in this game… I’m here for it. The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right, greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed in all of its forms. Greed for evolutions, prize cards, knockouts, wins, has marked the upward surge of mankind and greed - you mark my words - will not only save Duskull and Charmander, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the Pokemon TCG!
I wish Noir abusers that they start game with Duskull in active, no bench, draw for turn, instantly pass, and get dunked Except TrickyGym guy's alright
Who the heck say the format will become slower when Battle VIP rotate ! ? The format is as fast as ever, if not faster, if any deck can take 6 Prizes in 1 turn ! 😱 😱 😱
I built the deck, tried it out on the ladder and went 1-3 all three loss was one prize card short. This deck needs a "pal pad" if It had one I would one all three games that I lost.
loved the video and you have a great commentary styyle. are all your videos without any background audio? like you've got a nice voice but the lack of audio makes it feel weird personally. like your just talking into my ear directly with nothing to balance it.
Bro violated the human rights of that Gardevoir player.
the UN needs to take action against this deck
The UN strongly condemns the use of this deck. The UN also wishes us thoughts and prayers during these trying times.

Andrew, you should open a restaurant because it would immediately get two Michelin stars. You cook so good it cannot be matched.
All he has to do is use that Sweet Cackle and I'll trust whatever I am eating.
He's already cooking
autoloss vs regidrago and stallax😅
Just play a pech for stall

This gives me so many mixed emotions. Makes me want to play this deck, but also simultaneously give up playing until the ol dusky gang rotates
So you won't play until next 3 years?
Don't say that, I just got into Pokemon from Yugioh's shit storm
@@TrapTrixDM he who said that not want to play until dusknoir rotated, which is 2-3 years from now
I played this deck online today... beat it down with Glimmora ex
Not the 2004 team magma tease 👀 Can’t wait for that content!

Thank you Mahone! This is so much more fun to play then regular zard. Much more consistent then I initially gave it credit for. So much fun!!!
My win rate with this deck is about the same I have with regular Charizard Ex.

I was browsing through Reddit yesterday and saw a post about dusknoir being broken. Guess I know where it came from now 😂
Love these trickygym videos. hard at work building fun, playable and amazing decks. Trickygym Goated with the gem videos.

This is the first zard list I've actually had fun with. Thanks!
your decks are always on another level! Love it!
Thanks so much for this. This looks a lot more fun for my style of play than regular Zard is for some reason, so I may give this a try.
Fun in games until you meet an Iron Thorns Deck
My Moon deck got absolutely bodied on the ladder by this deck today. Cheers Andrew!
Very amazing playing my friend👌🤝👌🤝😊
Seems like people are still figuring out just how good these Dusk men are
Crazy deck build. Can wait to see how many players show up with this. Really gets you thinking. Thought the Mets "was" going to slow down.
Wait how did this deck take 6 prizes in one turn?
Nasty build for sure
Is Pokemon turning into YGO with the OTK decks now?
Also I don't know why play Lost Vacuum, any pros mind explaining?
Can’t wait until the whole ladder is mirror matches of this deck.
Hi, can you tell why some of the cards are not available in the Pokémon Live app? Thanks
I’m gonna try Grand Tree over Prime Catcher. Not needing the full combo for a stage 2 when you’re trying to spam Dusknoir seems good. Might conflict with PokeStop too much but worth a shot

I'm actually gonna lab this to see if it goes deeper.
I've been playing straight arceus duskys, and I kept thinking, this needs a Charizard. Thanks for the assistance. ❤❤❤
this deck is great and pretty fun, been playing it and made 2-0-1 and 3-0 at local leagues and 3-2 to top 7 at a challenge today.
squawk is a total meme thou, occupies precious bench space, so i changed it to thorton to great results (if the opponent knows what you're doing and kos arceus, you can immediatly get it back and vstar to turn the game around)
briar might find a way into the list... its overestimated for sure, but maybe... maybe...
Im getting a restriction when using more than 1 duskull in the tcg movile app 😢
been having a lot of fun with this deck online and irl!
Just tried, beside the consistency issue this deck is actually so disgusting. I think we might see this winning a tournament in the future
I faced this deck at a case tournament couple weekends ago and my Hydrapple deck cooked this deck twice in a row for the sweep!
I just came back to say your brain is bigger than mine, I can´t make this deck run no matter what LOL
Have you not thought about using the new ace spec grand tree? I think that will be interesting
would 1 double turbo be helpful for arceus/radzard?
I have dragon shields that I have had for 12 years on decks, I use no other sleeves 100% recommend
And this is why I run 2 copies of devolution ray.

Absolutely diabolical
I would recommend taking out a stop for another rod
Can someone put this deck list together on limitless? Then we could paste it in to TCG Online.

Can you include some faint background music in these videos?
What the heck, I thought we were going to see a six prize ko turn.
Maybe exchange arceus with noctowl? What do you guys think about it
Not a bad idea, but Arceus helps u get the tera zard out, u need more cards at the beginning of the game
This deck is crazy broooo.
Does this deck like to go first?
Yea
I wish Noir abusers that they start game with Duskull in active, no bench, draw for turn, instantly pass, and get dunked
Except TrickyGym
guy's alright
Awesome video dude
no manaphy ? how you survive kyurem? 😢

Squintz from The Sandlot became a Pokémon master!? 👏
19:34 Wait, there are reverse holos on PTCGL?
Every card is there, pretty sure.
I built the deck, tried it out on the ladder and went 1-3 all three loss was one prize card short. This deck needs a "pal pad" if It had one I would one all three games that I lost.
Hashtag ClopsTheSquawk
Cooked with this might have to play again but only using this🔥🔥😶🌫️
Andrew puts on a good show 😂
Damn this video really made me question my tcg skills lol
I like it... Been finding a zard deck that uses meow
Needs Briar for when I'm up 2 to 3 and my opponent Dusclop's my Palafin to put me to 1 and Briar/Charizard KO's my Palafin for 3
eh, maybe not
i wonder how this stacks against a roaring moon deck
Pretty goated if you pull 3 bombs and they frenzied gouging,you win with zard/clops
OMG let him cook, this deck I will bring at gym battle at my LGS😊finally zard become S tier again
No Arven?
bro said there would be ancient box... where is the beloved dino cube?
This will instantly die in the hands of Iron thorns EX
I had no trouble beating thorns
With this deck?
Iron thorns will still be a decent match up, but this deck will die to any item lock deck
@@Bob-em6knthank the Lord for dusk banette deck
No arven?
After i watch this.. now i know how much top player thinks.. too much analytical move.
Arc zard is back
Just went 0-7 with this deck....
Bro! Charizard is metahhhhh again!!! 🔥🔥🔥
"I made a really UNIQUE deck"
Puts Arceus in the same deck every zard/dusknoir runs
Nah
Man, Dusclops and Dusknoir kinda ruin the game, huh? Shame, I had hopes for the SV era until now.
Womp womp
Kind of reminds me of Mismagius beast ring.
This makes me want to play GLC... What a joke standard is
Nice cooking
My single prize Klawf deck farms wins from mimikyu Gardevoir all day on Live
Oh... another Charizard deck...
I need a video explaining the economy and best ways to craft decks
Comments I'm once again asking you for your help
i've tried and it's soooo damn broken dude
Thorns enters the chat 🗿🗿
loved the video and you have a great commentary styyle. are all your videos without any background audio? like you've got a nice voice but the lack of audio makes it feel weird personally. like your just talking into my ear directly with nothing to balance it.
Super sick deck
That is pretty crazy
Diabolical
Pretty cool not gonna lie trik gym
AwesomeZard
Anyone else just getting shit luck with this deck?
lowkey sometimes. but irl 90% of the time i have turn two zard.
@@VertigoTCG irl this deck slaps, online I’m getting clapped.
I like this build
25:05 this is one of the most insane hands I've seen in a while XD
No music on the stream is crazy 😳
This is disgusting LMAOOOO ban Dusclops and Dusknoir ASAP
Heat!
This is a fun zard list
