Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

the tier thread

Isn't that an Oxymoron?

I almost sig'd that... :lol:

I LOVE building rogues because it takes my opponent about 15 mins to even figure out where I'm going with it... sometimes, by then, it's too late :smile:

I don't like seeing my opponent set up based on the reveal of the starting card. I want him/her misplaying and second-guessing because they don't what choices to make...

Example, play a Roseanne's... and you see them trying to decide whether or not to pull an unown G or an SP tech ... they just don't have enough information to make a solid decision because the entire strategy of my deck is completetly uncommon to anyone...

So, rogues don't fit into a tier because they are too specific. That is, they are individual ideas that are not commonly played. That's why they're rogue! They don't follow in-suit with common practice :)

I can play around a rogue... I have a vast amount of card knowledge and use it in weird cases. If I battle you 4th round of a tournament, I will know your deck, and your rogue is common knowledge.
 
every one who whinks flygon is any thing less than tier 1 only thinks that because thy dont have one or because it woops them
 
Tier 1:
Gengar
Machamp
Luxray GL variants (Luxray/Palkia G, Luxray/Infernape 4)

Tier 1.5

SP's
Kingdra
Dusknoir (The way new faster version)
Beedrill
Flygon

Coming from someone who has only lost once to Flygon, it isn't Tier 1.

You have to give some respect to the deck that won Canadian and Dutch Nats, though.

For some reason I never realised Weavile could get Special Dark, and that + Nidoking helps make Power Swing 1HKO alot more. I don't think it's a bad deck, but Tier 1.5-2.
 
lol, I know it doesn't mean anything, cos it's only League but a couple of weeks ago me and Ben played identical Flygon/Weavile/Dusknoir lists. Ben went 4-0 and I went 3-1.

Guess who I lost to :mad:
 
I really don't understand the point of a tier list thread in a format so full of parity. Any deck from Tier 1 and Tier 2 in most lists has something else in those tiers that it consistently beats and something that it consistently loses to. The post nats tier list is really going to come down to who didn't get their bad matchups and who managed to luck out via pairings.(EX, the majority of the Flygon player's losing first round, etc. etc.)
