Rogue Archetype, how do I handle a 71 card deck especially if I take out any cards it counts toward my 16 card limit for the round? FYI it was 34 pokemon, 16 trainers, 21 energies.
Please refer to post #1 of this thread. I copy and pasted the interesting section.
"CARDS YOU CAN USE:

You can add cards from the Binder of Fun and Randomness
You can add up to 6 Pokemon Uncommon/Commons from PL and LA.
You can add up to 3 of any Basic Energy that is not already in the deck! (you may mix or use 3 of the same)
You can only switch out 16 total cards from the 'new' list (ANYTHING you take out will count towards your 16 card limit.)"

Yet on post #44 of this thread and on page 2, you posted "NOTE: If you have 64 cards, those 4 extra do NOT count towards your 16 changes".

I am so confused. Please clarify the two conflicting posts.
I am guessing with your busy schedule you have not updated the first page of this thread.

Oh, wait. Well, if the cards over don't count towards the changes, then I should actually have a chance of salvaging the situation.
 
oh god, the pain... MAKE IT STOP!!!!

wow, this is gonna require alot of work here!

RA quick question, with my list at least, there are 15 cards that are immediatelly cut, and looking at the binder and the limitations that I can add, I have a wonk line that cannot even be played.

Could you clarify the 16 card rule?

JONATHAN!:mad:

This was worse than what happened to our round 1 decks last time.

EDIT: Jonathan can't count:

Energy: (18)
8 Grass Energy
5 Fighting Energy

I have a 66 card list.

Question 1) Therefore I can remove 6 (Get to 60 card limit) + 16 (allowed changes) = 22? And then add 16? (as i believe you said in post #44)

Question 2) Also can I add any basic energy i like?

PS: I had a great Idea before seeing the 6 uncommons/commons rule

What do you mean when you say we can add "this so many cards" from PT and LA? Are they like, packs, or do you mean from the binder? Going away this weekend to Long Island NY. Hopefully I can do this within a few hours on Monday. 0_0

Suggestions like these are ALWAYS welcomed. You're right, we'll count fossils as Pokemon (uncommons).

NOTE: If you have 64 cards, those 4 extra do NOT count towards your 16 changes :thumb:

Now, I've gotta go set up for the sanctioned tourney :/

EXTRA cards do not count toward your 16 card swap limit. *twisted logic/math eh?*

Fell asleep sending them out last night. Sending the rest now... lol

if Jonathan changed the deck like most newbie lil kids do... then i have a feeling this deck has very little to do with meganium now... and prolly has a 70+ card deck. with 6 ex's etc.

oh god.

oh god no. x-x

I can't wait to have my eyes bleed?...
 
Next round:

If anybody lists cards like this, it's an autoloss

4-2-3 Meganium
2-1 Furret
4-1 Sandslash

EACH card is important for me to know. You can't truncate your list and prove that yours is better than anyone else in your POD.
 
OK, a 67 card deck with 3 stage 2 evolutions (at least one is balanced!!!) and a stage 1 evolution. If this were still DP-On, my kid actually built a very nice foundation to work on, with the 2-2 Claydol. Unfortunately, Claydol is now extinct.

This is FAR worse than last year, RA. At least you let me keep my main evolution line, though...
 
The challenge was to cut similar/same cards and add same cards so everyone in the had a fair shot to compete with one another. Last year, we had some pods that had NOTHING to work with while another had rediculously good cards.

Now, you're all equally screwed up :/
 
RA, can I cut my extra 11 cards from a 71 card deck without it counting towards my 16 cards limit?
I think I can with your post on page 3.

lol, excuse my last post as it was really sleepy as I was typing that post; bad math.

There was also 1-1 Claydol line in Jonathan's "binder". So you could have a 3-3 claydol line if it was different format.
 
EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE THEIR ROUND 2 LIST IN THE PMs.

Answered that like 3 times now. 16 don't count towards the extras (this actually helps you in a way...)

3-3 Claydol not legal. Kills ya don't it :tongue:
