Best partner for Uxie or Azelf or even Sableye.
Once bait for last season.
9/10 - Modified
However, it is a pain to start with. :)
 
Worst card to have in your deck. Starting with a 30 HP pokemon is suicide /sarcasm

Seriously this is a good card, but being super paranoid leads me to never putting Q in a deck.
 
Joe!

lol is it because I donked you TWICE today? You get donked when playing Beedrill with just about anything :lol:.

Great card; love it!
 
10/10, even though I did end up getting donked with it once.


But that's just because of the luck of the draw-- that can't determine how good or bad a card is.
 
I actually run this card in every deck I've made in the past little while. It's ridiculously good, although dangerous when it comes to donks.

9.5/10 (would have gotten perfect if not for the donks)
 
If only it had 40 HP so it could avoid stuff like Uxie and Azelf one-shotting it, then I'd give it a 10/10.
Now a 9/10, its still a semi-staple (Ykno, on the list below afformentioned Uxie and Azelf, as well as 0-1 Blackbelt)
 
^ ^
lol stop making fun of me with that 0-1 black belt thing I regret posting :)

Any way, great card, I run it in every deck I play now.
 
I like this Card havnt really got to use it though
BUT always hear about people starting with it and getting donked lol

but i the the unown cards are awesome

9/10

It was one of the greatest posts I have ever seen haha.

Anyway, Unown Q is an awesome card in that it aids the manueverability and field control of countless decks whose support Pokemon have a retreat cost of 1 (Uxie X being the most common). It only affects one Pokemon, however, it occupies their tool and it also can function as a free prize if it is sprayed, or a game loss if you start with it.

7/10. Everyone runs one and it's got a great function so I see why - but that doesn't mean I like it.
 
Today's CotD is Unown Q from MD, an almost essential tech card in any given deck. Now looking at its stats, one would think not; 30 HP is bad for a Basic, +10 Weakness to :psychic: isn't idea, no Resistance, and no Retreat Cost (that part is good). However, its Poke-Power, QUICK, is extremely valuable in providing whatever it's attached to :colorless: less Retreat. Now sure, at face value that might not be that powerful, but consider this; it's a very easy to search permanent, attachable Switch card for many starter Pokemon (and quite a few Pokemon in general) that saves you a turn of having to attach Energy to something to Retreat it, and is one of the key cards that allows many decks to run lower Energy counts. Hidden Power deals an average 20 for :colorless:, but you're either desperate or a fool to be attacking with Unown Q.

Modified - 8/10 (A valuable tech card for almost any deck, the risk you start with this is far outweighed by the potential benefits)
Limited - 5/10 (Not as valuable, but it's still randomly nice to attach as a tool)
Unlimited - 1/10 (Not much use here, better Trainers/Tools that do his effect)

Well, attacking with Unown Q isn't that bad of an idea as you could donk another Unown Q.
 
At our cities champs this past weekend, we only had 6 master matches.

3 of them involved lone Unown Q starts, LOL.



8/10 card. Donk factor too strong this metagame to get a score higher than that despite being a fantastic card.
