Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

So, is SableDonk really going to ruin BRs?

Me and my friend played 5 games at our league, each playing Gyrados, and 4 out 5 games ended in a sabledonk. Which is funny because neither of us were running sabledonk decks. I'm not to sure that this will own the format like everybody says its going to. Just because imo if don't win turn 1 than you basically lose to everthing, which is just to inconsistant.
 
I have not read the thread yet (I'm about to after I post this), but I did some playtesting with Sabledonk versus Sablelock on Redshark, and it was 7/13, with the 13 being Sablelock. My personal opinion is that Sabledonk is not going to win every tournament, or even very many, but it is going to randomize the top cut by knocking out skilled players. without seeing levels of dominance even near that of Gardy/Gallade, the format will likely stay for Nats and Worlds, but most of the major players will be unfairly donked by the deck and perform under expectations, while some nobody who got lucky and didn't face a Sabledonk will win. Just my opinion.

Two hours of testing for tomorrow. Put two decks together to test against Grafton and his Sableye deck. I don't even know if I want to go tomorrow now. Might just go, trade and find someone to test the new format with. We played over 20 games and I think 4-5 went past three turns. It was more of a shuffle fest. What a mess!!
 
Same here, I'll have more fun testing the new format than the actual tourny because of Sableye :<
