You know that doesn\\\'t work. A group of lesser skilled players can only better themselves so much when playing each other. it requires interaction with higher skilled players to get better. Tips, tricks, and advice from better players can go a long way in helping newer or less skilled players.
how does it require interaction? do these kids not have any minds of there own?
how are they not capable of coming up with, accidentally or through hard work, a new powerful deck that helps shape the metagame?
seriously, ive come up with some amazing decks just from talking to little kids, like a few 8 year olds at my local league said that rampardos wasnt meant to have his own deck, cuz he makes himself die
he then went on to suggest lucario with him
i built it, it worked
the only thing new players lack is good judgement
good judgement comes from experience
experience comes from BAD judgement
Also, you point about the magic card makes no sense. That was one card, easily tech\\\'d into any deck. No one deck dominates right now. if PUI posted the best empoleon, blissey, kricketune, and mario list it wouldn\\\'t cause all the players to swerve in one direction and play the same deck. The only change in the game would be that players would have access to better lists and thus have better chances of doing well. Even though you and countless others put that down, I feel it\\\'s a good thing. It\\\'s a good thing to see new players do well, and to see fresh faces winning tournaments.
Even if that makes the elite...not so elite :/
actually, the card was a (2)(R)(B) multi color, not so easily thrown into any deck
its like saying you can throw gardevior ex into any deck, it just doesnt work
as for the best list, who says its the best?
bobby has swept 5 battle roads, does that mean his list is the best?
maybe the best list belongs to some kid in montana who has so few tournoments around him that he gets like no attention
and giving away another players decklist? how would that help anything?
if you have my list, that gives me an auto disadvantage
how is that fair? just because i won an event now my deck is up for grabs?
if i won a tournoment with a deck, or even several tournoments, its because i worked on a deck and played well with it (that or i donked the living **** out of alot of people [grinder 07 anyone?])
what right does another player have to my hard made list? why cant they damn well make their own?
make a deck, it fails, you pay attention to your games, you find out why, and you edit it
if you want, you can also ask an elite player for their advice
this way, you learn and become a better player
just base your list off of what is online, and all i ahve to do is change decks or add in a few techs and BAM, i gotcha again
