I'm a Game Development major, and in my "History of Games" class at DePaul university (real gamer friendly school btw, regardless of major), I am required to buy a Pokemon Deck, and play with other students.
I have owned cards before, in the glorious grade school days of the 90s, but I never really got to play "for real" as I had no friends, (awkward childhood) and the very few times I did battle, the other guy insisted on "energy cardless" rules.
Which of course was silly when he threw out a First Edition Holo Charizard. It got stolen within a week though, thank karma.
Anyway, so, I was wondering, since I want to really take this seriously, I wanted to ask:
What would be the best starter deck to purchase now?
Any particular boosters I should look for?
Any killer strategies for said starter decks?
Anyway, I'd appreciate any tips.
Also, I'm sorry if this is not the right place to post this. I was directed here by a very helpful person on the PA Arcadia Battle Academy forum...
