:/

Keep thinking that =D. Gengar is NOT going to dominate in the way people constantly think it's going to. The deck won't be unbeatable. If it starts to dominate, then someone will simply find a counter - which isn't that hard. I definitely agree with Scizor on this, 100%.
 
Also, I don't hate luxchomp. I play luxchomp. All I'm saying is that when it's rotated out and gengar prime is still playable, what are you going to say then? Thank you. I rest my case.

Case? What case?

If Gengar Prime is the BDIF, I'll play it. If something else is BDIF when Luxray is rotated, I'll play that.

I don't care what cards are in the BDIF. I don't care what cards are in the format. I'll work with whatever is legal and I'll play whatever wins.

Is that clear enough for you?
 
ok guys calm it down i was just expressing my opinion on sp and asking what you guys thought on THOSE CARDS and also tell me what cards you think are broken if your gonna argue and banter go somewhere else also i just thought they might just not print lost world in the next set if they do i dont mind that much because just like against sp you just build a deck to go against it or tech in stuff. I personally run machamp just cause the fact that BR will be filled with sp and also my machamp has a 50/50 chance on vilegar iv tested it alot. I also run a Sizor Prime, Tyranitar Prime, and a LeafeonRoseradeMagmortar which do pretty good, the only one that T-Tar has trouble is machamp and sometimes Luxchomp.
 
I'd have to say the most broken cards in the current format would be Power Spray (Pokemon's first "interrupt" card), Luxray GL Lv. X (Gust of Wind with teeth), Sableye SF (almost always going first + good donk and setup power), and Cyrus' Conspiracy (a great Supporter even if you don't run SP).

Gengar Prime will be a force to be reckoned with, but there are ways around it (keep the number of Pokemon in your hand to a minimum, use healing). Also, Cursegar synchronizes better with Gengar Prime than its Fainting Spell counterpart, meaning Vileplume UD might not be the best companion for it. Crobat G and Gallade 4 Lv. X might be better partners.

The people who run Luxchomp are usually a certain type of player who go to a tournament with the aim of winning with the best deck avaliable to them. If Gengar makes Luxchomp unplayable. then they'll just play Gengar lol.
 
Let me settle this thread.

1. SP cards are only "broken" because SP is the BDIF atm. (if it was charizard or T-tar then RareCandy would be broken)
2. Gengar prime isn't broken at all.
3. Gengar Prime/ Lost world wont get banned.
4. DreamDemon is a troll.
5. Me and Mario are always right.
6. Gengar Prime will be good, but it won't be BDIF, atleast not anytime soon.
7. Saying Gengar will counter SP and that will make it BDIF then why isn't machamp BDIF?
8. DreamDemon is still a troll. :thumb:

I slightly disagree with this post. At 6: Gengar Prime won't be good or banned. IDK how how people expect it not to get OHKO'd with that x2 dark weakness or set up while using all those hunters to put stuff in the lost zone. All sp needs is a 1-1 Absol.

And also 7 needs more emphasis. Oh, and 4/8 do as well. :lol:
 
Machamp doesn't keep SP from functioning, it just KOs SPs.

Gengar lost zones your Lv. Xs. Ow.


Absol G is lame, so there will be none of that. I imagine anyone who plays Sablelock with Absol Prime would have a MUCH better time vs. Gengar.

look Power Spray is a new kind of card to pokemon one that only sp can use and also has alot of very fast and efficient tools like poke turn and cyrus so in combination it is overpowered in my opinion idc if t-tar or machamp was or will be ever bdif rare candy will never be broken cause evolutions will always be slower than sp and if there was no sp then everyone will just use rare candy. all of the sp engine stuff are things only they can use thats wat makes them broken
 
I actually meant Prime although I said 1-1. It is clearly a better tech in any sp after all.

I don't think sp will loose any playability with Gengar's advent. It will just adapt, like it always has. Sp stays BDIF.

/looks at your signature

You just dislike Power Spray because you play a deck that can't function with Sprays in play. Me, I love Power Spray. And I love SP mirror.

Evolutions are not always slower than SP. Case in point: Jumpluff pre-rotation.

Why would limiting the SP engine cards to only SP Pokemon make them MORE broken? Can you imagine if Cyrus just allowed you a Trainer, a Supporter and an Energy?

If every player would think like you, the game was dead. Nobody wants to play a TCG with all the same deck. And what I know from my experience at Nationals is that since I started playing, almost all the top placements have been made by players who choose a deck because they're comfortable with it, not because it's the best.

Castaway gave you a Tool, a Supporter and an Energy. Since Roseanne rotated out, I'm really starting to miss that card. =/

Other people are free to play what they want, and so am I.

Obviously I play the deck I think I can win with. If I wasn't 'comfortable' with it, I wouldn't feel that way would I? Or is there something wrong with that as well?
 
I play BDIF and my username is RogueDecker.
I always play rogue unless there isn't one i feel comfortable with.

In order to do good you must use a deck that you are comfortable with, and im quite sure mario knows this.
People think a newcomer could pick up Luxchomp and top-cut which is far from true.

Baby Mario plays BDIF because it's the best deck and he has the resources to obtain the cards.
Many people dont play the BDIF because the prices are usually crazy.
If somebody didnt feel comfortable with Luxchomp they wouldn't play it, unless they have no understanding of how Pokemon TCG should be.

You play what your comfortable with, and playtest decks you are thinking about running.
 
The thing is tha, at least for me, playing the bdif in format and having fun dont go well together, I want to play long games and not prevent a game from happening. And yeah, @ BM, Ive read the article but what we have now is more like the situation with the one totally broken street fighter character. And honestly, I understand a BDIF will always keep certain decks from being good but when a deck has the ability to just render 90% of cards printed useless it gets too much.

Card has a body? Lightning Weakness? Colorless Weakness? Just a +30 Weakness so it could survive? Needs a power? Needs a setup? A certain Energy? Yeah...

Am I a scrub because IMO the game was way more fun without sp? Weve always had BDIFs but theres a strong deck and a deck thats too strong. And do you really still enjoy playing against Luxrays all day?

And save yourself the "theres just another deck youll whine about" speech because it never worked and never will, I can adapt to strong decks and play accordingly but SP just has a counter to everything because it has too many rule breaking cards, without it there wouldnt jus be another meta deck because decks that play by the same rules can counter each other and we'd see a ton of decks that were rendeed unplayable by a single card in sp. Just think about all the good cards that have a body and will never see any play. Im pretty sure that I could build a good working counter to every deck that would be bdif if SP was gone.

And when Im talking to hardcore sp players like volt and even he goes "Ill just get rid of all cards except sp, its not like Id need anythink else" and "why bother building other decks when SP has an answer anyway or can easily tech one", idk. I just feel like deckbuilding is dead, and not just just "bad rogues".
 
about the most broken card im gonna go with DCE it made unplayable pokemon such as Garchomp C Lvl X playable

honestly im tired of seeing the same thing over and over again just like when donks where more common (Machamp & rampardos)

i hope that there are more decks that can be popular hahah deck diversity and set-up (longer games how i miss rock lock, ludicardgo etc hhehehe)
