0:20 or you can just use Exegutor that will need 1 less energy to start attacking, so your Vileploom will have 1 more energy right away and you rarely would need more ramp.
Ranked will satisfy those players who need to measure themselves, but I'm not actually sure it'll make the game better. The Meta gets honed and really quickly and that tends to colour the rest of the game. It might be a better game for not having a ranked ladder.
What do you mean? There is already a meta, people are already figuring out what is good and what is not. A metagame will take form, with or without a ranked ladder. I also don't understand why not having a ladder would make the game better. As long as there is a casual mode it's fine.
@@lucianofrancesco4742 There’s a meta sure, but without ranked the top tier decks I suspect will thin out a bit over time because of boredom and people feel a bit more creative. With a ranked ladder that boredom is replaced with ambition and the game becomes more copycat. Just my thoughts based on other card games I’ve played.
Greninja + Starmie EX with Giovanni instead of Misty I found works really well. That's 120 damage with Starmie hit plus Greninja which knocks out a lot of non-EX pokemon. Timing with Giovanni and knowing what to shuriken is vital but if you make the right calls the math works out a lot of the time. Need to anticipate retreats and what the opponents plans to use next as well as consider Sabrina plays to your advantage.
????? mewtwoEX/garde stomps the piss outta mankey deck bro what are you talking about 😭😭😭 pikachu ex (one of fighting's only good type matchups in high tier rn) also bpdies primeape all day articuno/misty also stomps man yall are smoking some GOOD crack 😭😭😭
@@曉p-p7t IT doesnt really need an explanation. Mewtwo slaps it because its strong against it type wise. Pikachu gets 1 shot by Primeape once it gets fight back online that's literally it.
I actually tried this exact concept but I found exeggutor/vileplume to be better since exeggutor only needs 1 energy and you can start building the vileplume in the back easily and still have an early game threat
I’ve been loving grass decks since I finally got the cards to make a venusaur ex deck. Dont really have the cards to make any other decks but I’m excited to try this out whenever I get the cards for it. Really wanna try out venemoth sometime. Less tanky than weeding but has the same damage, energy cost, 1st stage and poison affect as him
It may time to do a deck tier video, but looking at this I would it's A-Tier. Reasons: The Energy Curve is smooth, while Vileplume needs alot, it's previous stages compensate. Energy Acceleration with Lilligant is gold. Heal with Erika. Sleep Status Effect can win games in a heartbeat. Good video 💯
Really liked games. I agree that grass type more about control decks. But I don’t think right now we have really control decks in game. It’s like we surely have some fast agro decks like blaine stuff, marowak, pikachu… And we have more mid game decks with stage 2 pokemons like mew2, articuno, venusaur, charizard, dragonite and stuff like that, but all this deck not about control, it’s more like about pressure, but quite later than agro with more tanky and more damage cards, and this deck need to setup some stage 2 with more energy. I wish in future this game will have more slow control decks, where you will draw all your cards and really care about resources and hard thinking decisions.
lapras ex and pidgeot deck? keep healing and stalling the opponent by constantly switching out the enemy, and attacking with lapras for 80 and gaining 20 hp every hit
I’ve been running a Vileplume deck as my main since day two of the app releasing. When it works, it feels great. It’s a RNG deck though. I know all decks depend on some RNG, but this deck ESPECIALLY is RNG. Very easy to get shut down. If you’re looking for consistent wins, just keep moving along. You basically need to have an Oddish and Lilligant on the board by turn 3, otherwise the dream falls apart real quick. Sabrina can easily shut down this deck too. Oddish and Gloom are very easy to kill, and if that happens and you don’t have your second Oddish on the board with the evos in hand, you will probably lose. Basically, if you want to beat stall decks and decks that ramp up slowly, this has good success against them. You will generally lose against decks that can deal 70-80 damage by turn 2/3 tho, the the Zard is barely even worth trying. I’ve played about 15 times against Zard with this deck, and I’ve maybe won twice. LOL.
Yea all the healing would place it into the control deck archtype. Any card that controls the pacing of the game that causes it to slow down significantly would be control I believe. The opposite would be Agro decks. Cards like Wheezing, Articuno, and greninja etc that deal extra damage would fit that type.
i wouldn't call them "aggro" in the context of this game. greninja still needs to evolve twice, for example. wheezing is more synergy based when you pair it with muk and koga. something i'd call aggro would be a blaine deck, where you can start dishing out reasonable damage quickly for low energy costs
I battled somebody and his pokeball item card had mini red pokeballs all over it like a sparkles flair. How do we get that pokeball flair? It only has the option to make it sparkly for me?
@@Melonstrange All cards (at least all that I've seen) start with the basic sparkle cosmetic flair. Once you unlock that, all the other flair options for that card become visible.
You can probably create other deck structure from mewtwo booster pack. The highlight include dragonite deck (the deck with massive variant and future value), Weez Arbok deck, Venu ex deck
Im playing this but instead of lilligant i use execuggutor ex becos it can tank long enuff while building up vileplume with erika help n its 1 energy attack can dish out considerable amt of dmg too
I like the game but I get sick of playing vs the same decks 9/10 games it's really making the game pretty stale. Only people such as content creators actually experiment with unique decks.
Agreed, for me, i try to make decks that beat the meta decks😂 see a few ppl trying something different also, think we’ll get more variety when new cards come out
My favorite Deck, Venusaur Line (6) Butterfree line (6) mostly for ability) Hypnos Line (4). 2 Draw cards. 2 potions. Actually so fun. So many of the people i fought conceded 😂. Counters Dragonite, Articuno, ive even outhealed a centiskorch team and won An alternative is to remove hypnos and use liligant, let lilignat die and you could have 1 active venusar another one in the back and a butterfree line lined up. and u could use 2 x speed instead of potions or swap something else to switch between venusaur and use butterfrees heal for backline venusaur
@alphachupapi12 It works now. When the game gets an update it takes them a couple of hours to make the game able to run again. There is also another emulator called mumu player that is pretty good too but I prefer bluestacks.
Been really enjoying my first weeks on PTCGP and your video's have been a great help in understanding the different decks. Keep it up man!

I feel like more players want ranked because of the rewards that naturally come with it.
The biggest problem is the reward for playing online. It’s just not worth it at all. 15exp and nothing else is a joke honestly.

The new mankey promo card slaps meta decks atm.
?????
mewtwoEX/garde stomps the piss outta mankey deck bro what are you talking about 😭😭😭
pikachu ex (one of fighting's only good type matchups in high tier rn) also bpdies primeape all day
articuno/misty also stomps
man yall are smoking some GOOD crack 😭😭😭
@@aa-tx7th nah mankey promo destroys electric decks INCLUDING pikachu ex idk what u yapping abt
I don't play both and don't understand how both decks work, but it's funny to see both people argue with empty explanation

If you get mankey going early and knock out one mewtwo ex before it ramps up your golden.
I’ve run this since the global release. One of the first decks I was able to build. Love it

how are you playing with your PC?
This is all fine and dandy until your opponent puts Articuno EX in turn one. Or Moltres, or Mewtwo, or really any other EX since most are broken.
lapras ex and pidgeot deck? keep healing and stalling the opponent by constantly switching out the enemy, and attacking with lapras for 80 and gaining 20 hp every hit
Can give it a try. Has a good match up against the recent rising Weez koga stall tech

14:40 why did you retreat? Burning energy on second Plume was not it, you had one mon that had the energy to attack instead of 2.
because losing liligant is better than losing vileplume

@@MrRubixscube Fair enough. May mid-range then. We all know starmie Ex is quite agroo. Just facing it in the event now makes me realize how OP it is.
Is he playing this on pc?
I battled somebody and his pokeball item card had mini red pokeballs all over it like a sparkles flair. How do we get that pokeball flair? It only has the option to make it sparkly for me?
I believe there are multiple levels of flair. You just need a ton of duplicates and dust to craft the flair!
@@kara7049 ooooh so like more different variations will appear the more copies of a card you have?
@@Melonstrange All cards (at least all that I've seen) start with the basic sparkle cosmetic flair. Once you unlock that, all the other flair options for that card become visible.
Me when everyone has Mewtwo ex but i can't get even 1 after 1 week of pulling full Mewtwo packs
You can probably create other deck structure from mewtwo booster pack. The highlight include dragonite deck (the deck with massive variant and future value), Weez Arbok deck, Venu ex deck
I know i can and i Made those decks nut it's just sad that everyone get's it and i can't get even 1 single copy :/
Im playing this but instead of lilligant i use execuggutor ex becos it can tank long enuff while building up vileplume with erika help n its 1 energy attack can dish out considerable amt of dmg too
what this game has ladder??

@ravkhar927 yeah and the introduction to burns and resistance will shake things up 😨
How did you get the charizard picture?
Collect 5 non ex Charizards.
Wish theyd let you pay to have an actual print of the cards you pulled sent to you lol
grass is more like a ramp. pokemon with sleep / paralyse is control i guess
Just wait until you find out what vileplume’s attack does
My favorite Deck, Venusaur Line (6) Butterfree line (6) mostly for ability) Hypnos Line (4). 2 Draw cards. 2 potions. Actually so fun. So many of the people i fought conceded 😂.
Counters Dragonite, Articuno, ive even outhealed a centiskorch team and won
An alternative is to remove hypnos and use liligant, let lilignat die and you could have 1 active venusar another one in the back and a butterfree line lined up. and u could use 2 x speed instead of potions or swap something else to switch between venusaur and use butterfrees heal for backline venusaur
The second guy could've won easily if he didn't put the energy into Muk, then poison and retreat the Weezing with energies.
Very nice but Rapidash deck doesn't even need to draw good to destroy this deck lol
I can see Charizard losing to this sleep
I’ve got 1200 points but no Vileplume...
I actually turned the game music off and its so relaxing with just the sound effects
how to play on pc?
Bluestacks emulator
