as someone whos considering going to my first prerelease, this video was PERFECT. you focused on the right things when building your deck and explained your thought process which I GREATLY appreciate. happy surging sparks szn, hope u get a pika :)
I wanna agree with this comment, I didnt know what to expect at a prerelease event. This video helps me know what to expect, you mentioned you only get 4 prize cards so that helped to understand the game :)
i feel like best case scenario for the format would be the magneton pre-release kit + finding tapu koko and the watrell-killowatrell line in your packs.
Great video! Thanks for the information, very helpful as a new player. Question - can you explain more why you decided against using the Flamigo? Seemed like a good pull to me!
@okayokay1852 Thanks for the comment! In regards to Flamigo, Pokémon ex award 2 prize cards and the Flamigo needed 3 energy to attack for a legitimate number, so it felt like a easy thing to dismiss.
Cool video! Always love watching You open pre release kits. I always find it funny how you try to open up the packs or plastic seals with the zapdos. XD
I really wanna pull some lisias appeal, it just seems really useful, hopefuly i manage to get the full art Update: i actually won the pre release top 1, sadly i got no lisias appeal, and out of 12 PACKS, the only rare ish card i got was that electric bird ex, no full arts, no illustrations, only 1 ex in 12 packs, also, no lisias appeal, not even de normal one. Certainly not my day
Went to a midnight prerelease, there wasn't really anything that jumped out as being really good. I had a hydreigon ex fully set up twice but never got to attack with it lol.
I think Archaludon is pronounced arch-AL-uh-dahn, with "arch" being pronounced the same as the architectural structure. I'm not positive, though, since the pronunciation guide on Serebii hasn't been updated with the DLC Pokemon.
You had tough luck with what you pulled. I think Magneton appears better than it actually is because you don’t have a way of discarding energy besides having your Pokémon get knocked out. I’m very glad you can’t just slap those energies onto gouging flame at least. Ultimately I think the deck you made is going to be your best bet.
I have a little trouble with the fact they put 2 exeggcute in the electric-themed deck, but no raichu, pichu, zapdos or jolteon, but looks like a nice set overall
Like this comment to get good luck on your next prerelease pulls!
Going this sunday, wish you all luck
I’m going tomorrow I think good luck
I'm going one with a friend on Sunday. I've never gone to a prerelease event or a Pokemon TCG event so I'm excited
Seeing these surging sparks videos popping up is getting me hyped for the set!

Glad it was helpful! Have fun at your event this weekend!
Agree, really wish I'd seen this before I went to my first! Good work @@st00benThanks

Recently got into the game and doing my first prerelease this weekend. This video was exactly what I needed to see.
@@tineye5100 Glad to have helped!
This helped out a ton with my first pre-release, but my deck was so wildly different. Got Wo Chen and the Duck line. Had so few items cards too.
Im so hyped to go to my first pre release, unlucky though that the stuff for the pre release is arriving late to the store i was gonna play in

@@cosmicthistle4269 Yeah, that would be gnarly!

Thx, I was looking for that , but didn't find , here in Brasil. You was the first show this, thx 🙏😊
I hope I get the Gouging Fire just because it comes with a Vessel :D
Do they have events for events and battlepacks for special sets like prismatic evolution?
@@harrybrass734 Not official ones, but some stores may do some sealed events with ETBs or Bundles!
Build and Battle timee woooo 🎉🎉
Kit seems really good, maybe they heard us all complaining 🤔
I want that memo for my snorlax deck. First hit mechanation then the memo.
@@steve2468 ooooh, he cookin!

That's literally the same sound. @@nikzito2
Got the magnizone indedee base and just got bodied by gouging fire 😂
@@roseprecision Oh no

@@kentops1800 yeeeeeah, hopefully my real kit is better
Set up a heavy Pokémon in active then retreat. Got plenty of turns in a prerelease to attach and pass lol
This set is miles better than the last one, hopefully that trend continues
i wonder how a magnezone deck would do when surging sparks is legal
9:17
Pre-co-Shush .... Precocious
@@GazerBeam2k pre-cocky-us of you to correct me
@@st00benOl mate needs to get rid of the H and make it shus for it to sound right.
with that i would just play pure magnezone
I have a little trouble with the fact they put 2 exeggcute in the electric-themed deck, but no raichu, pichu, zapdos or jolteon, but looks like a nice set overall
The packs are random
@@Dabfamlet not talking on the pack, talking about the set. Check the set-list.
001 and 002 are both different Exeggcute
@@S_Tadz oh ok mb
