Doesnt that attack take 3 energy with 2 being metal? Kinda hard to counter an absol after it has 3 turns to rip apart your hand IMO.

Absol is like the old AMEX adds, never leave home without it!
I can not see having a competive deck without them.
Lets put it this way. If you ban Absol all of you wonderful people won't be able to complane and would be out of a job. :nonono:Man, my opponent today. RIPPED MY hand with Absol. My Hand was 1 card Turn 3 and I still won 5 turns later.
BAN ABSOL.
At our four CCs, I saw Absol once. It took second place.
One interesting thing about the current format is that these cards that seem to rise up and dominate upon their release, do so only to get beaten back down to earth with the release of the next set. Absol is just the next in a long line of victims.
Absol is not broken. People will eventually adapt to its effect on the early game. In a few weeks all you whiners will forget about Absol and start in on whatever "broken" card is in the new set. Feh.

What would you complane about then? Putting yourselves out of a job? :nonono::nonono:
Wow. This thread made it to at least 229 posts. Great discussion folks.
BTW, I never said ban the cards or that they are broken. I suggested they be reviewed by PUI. Big Difference.
ProfMagma nailed it earlier in the thread. He's been to 10 CCs and Absol Decks won 10 CCs.
In the end, use Absol and Wager and Mars.
Have a great day.:biggrin:
I know this sounds stupid but how about a tech of drifblim DP? it recycles alot of your fallen cards from absol.
absol is pointless because it is so overplayed
It should be baned because it does in fact take most of the skill out of the game
It dosn't take the skill out of the game. It adds it.
