Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

World Championships COMPLETED RESULTS

I see him having a tough time with Magneboar...Magnezone makes the Reuniclus strategy less effective and the only trainers it really relies on are Rare Candy and Communication to an extent.

magnezone needs 3 energies to ko a reshiram/zekrom and 4 to ko a donphan. if everything goes well for him magnezone needs 19 energies in total to take 6 prizes (assuming he has to beat 5 dragons and 1 donphan.) and i doubt magneboar plays 19 energies.

However RDL is more dangerous than magnezone because you just need 2 energies to take 2 prizes against dragons/donphan and you can use flower shop lady to reuse the energies. Only SEL can survive one RDL attack but then you are vulnerable to magnezone which just needs 2 energies to beat sel

RDL needs 4 energy.

And, now that we know he is playing SEL, he can attack RDL with SEL, and move all of the damage received, meaning he can 2HKO RDL and RDL cannot even 2HKO SEL.

but magnezone can 1hitko it with lost burn removing 2 energy. though this has been posted earlier about what SEL can withstand and the math of energy vs the rogue deck
 
Who would of thought that Reuniculus and Blissey would be in a Top 2 worlds deck. Not to mention SEL. Props to Ross for making this work, and props to his testing team for not leaking the deck.

i was talking about removing/discard energies. RDL just have to discard 2 energies (or 3 depending how much fire energies you have on rdl + discard is better than removing if you play flower shop lady)

hopefully rogue wins.
