How's everyone's ladder coming along? Are you gonna get that FA N?

I'm hoping to complete it a day or two early and take a much needed break from the game.

I just forfeit. I wish the idle timer had limited uses.

>>25622073
Honestly it feels like the timer can be cut in half. The games aren't really ever THAT long.

>>25622109
They can be. It's just people can abuse the timer to stall the fuck out of someone. I'm sick of matches where I'm at like 4 minutes of turn time and they're at like 10 and haven't really done anything to warrant using that much time.

>>25621607

Got this from a daily challenge pack. Could be worse.

why is it when you buy packs there are locked from trading?

>>25622497

>Got one of the worst EXs in Standard
>Could be worse

>>25622511

All the stuff that you bought with Coins in PTCGO are locked

>>25621651

Everything you get from the Versus ladder is trade locked.

>>25622511
To keep people from farming. If packs you bought could be traded, I'm sure there'd be bots or people that would just lose all the time (even with the restrictions) to just get the few coins to buy packs.

>>25622906
>To keep people from farming.

If a card has both a HGSS and SR version, which do you prefer?
Trying to decide between on which version of Switch, Energy Switch, and Rare Candy to use.

Is there a place I can go to read/learn about the history of the metagame of PTCG?

I'm really curious to learn how the metagame has changed and evolved ever since its conception.

I know very little about TCG, I just collected as a child. Regardless, I am curious to learn about the evolving metagame, what cards were useful and why and why certain tactics gained and fell in use.

I don't want it to be super comprehensive, just a nice simple overview.

This can give you an idea of some of the competitive decks from each year.

Other than that, you can try looking up old articles on sites like Pojo, etc.

>>25624662
One thing about this game is that the RNG is pretty basic. The randomness of a real life card draw as opposed to one determined by a computer is completely different.

File: pepe.png (2KB, 90x90px) Image search: [Google]

2KB, 90x90px

when you see a video of a guy opening a pack and the code card appears for a second on screen and you get the code for the pack

if you are not willing to show your decklist you shouldn't be able to look at those of others

Why do people complain about "cheap" decks in tournaments? Aren't you trying to win? Why wouldn't you use a good deck?

>>25625664
because they are bad at the game and are too much of a manchild to reflect on that
so instead they'll chose to complain about a deck that beat them

>>25624701
It's actually interesting to compare the RNG in PTCG and something like MTG.

Pokemon has a bit more random exectution (via coin flips), but balances it out with a lot more card draws. In MTG, each card draw is very expensive in terms of resources. So, in MTG, if you don't have a card you need, it can be very difficult to get that card from your deck.

Ok, try to fit a compressor in there to help get those metal energies in the discard pile.
Also, drop an ultra so you can at least have 2 level balls since you can use it on 17 out of 25 of your Pokemon.
Consider Bridget since it will fill up your bench fast.

Better than trying to build a deck with this.

Had a Barnes and Noble $25 gift card anyways, and I didn't feel like getting a giant pile of booster packs. At the very least I could build something with a strategy- the idea here is to get Zoura ASAP, Ascend, get Mewtwo to start throwing energy at, get a Hard Charm for Zoroark (and later Mewtwo), and put the autohealing Jinxes on the bench.

Not like I have anyone to play against anyways

I have 3 Gyarados EXs now, 1 SR, 1 FA, and 1 Regular. I can't build a deck around these because my ocd demands the cards be the same version. Feels bad.

>>25629679
You can't be alone because I traded my FA Flareon EX for the regular version + 3 generations packs.

why is the charizard authority seller on ebay so much more expensive than other sellers? It's like a 100% mark up in the case of the Charizard promo.

>>25630090
I bought some stuff from him a couple of weeks ago (I don't remember what exactly) and it was much cheaper than anyone else's stuff, so I'm not sure if that's true for everything.

>>25629893
I'm assuming it's just a cheap way of making sure they don't pop out in the packaging. Once you buy it, that's your problem, but if boxes were sent back or not purchased because of a "missing" promo, that'd be cutting into profits.

Mawile EX and M-Mawile EX when?

Does anyone think they'll expand the online cardgame? Maybe get rid of the retarded avatars? Bring it to Steam? Somethin I guess?

How is it btw? I'm wondering if I should consider getting into it.

>tfw you are the only person ITT who buys Pokemon cards just to collect the rare ones

>>25632726
4 Man, 2 Shaymin, 4-4-3 or 4-3-3.
You only need about 6-8 Lightning, or 6 Lightning, 2 Flash, standard trainers with Head Ringers, Xerosic, TFG, Hammers, and Rough Seas. You'll need Ultra Balls, Repeat Balls, and Level Balls.

As for Tools for Manectric, it's either Muscle Band for bonus 20, or Fighting Fury Belt for bonus HP; 210 HP Manectric plus Flash Energy can be hard to handle.

>>25632734

This might be a weird thing to ask but..

Do you guys smell your cards right after opening their packaging?

I used to do it in the early 2000's back when I collected the originals but now I might go and purchase a cheap pack at walmart or something just so I can relive that moment again. It's so tempting.

>>25634652
>9 pulls in
>only Gallade EX

I feel like this is a reseal pack or something

>>25634669
not like, actively bring them up to my nose and snort. the smell was/is nice tho

>tfw I find ptcg cards really beautiful and want to collect some

I only play MTG, where buying singles is the smartest way to spend your bucks.
Are ptcg booster boxes really worth the deal ?

>>25634730


Depends on the set. Once you hit around 30% completion, you start getting a gratuitous amount of doubles. It's insane.

If you want to buy a box, do it for a set that has over 150 cards

Does anyone have any experience with buying codes for packs over ebay? I kinda want to do it, but I don't know if it's actually something legit.

It's absolutely legit, but normally not worth it. Just grind it out, anon.

Also make sure to check if the codes are going to be emailed or mailed.

>>25634752

thanks, that's the kind of answer I seeked. I did checked the price of singles on magiccardmarket (I'm euro) and completing a set doesn't seems that expensive if you're not after secret and full art cards

>>25634765
The one I found said the codes would be emailed.

Not him, but I also play mtg. Mtg cards are too godamn expensive, I want one Arlinn for my casual werewolf modern deck, but I guess it will have to wait.

I started collecting Pokemon cards a month ago, and it is much cheaper, I can get a lot of cute and cool cards for a buck or two. I recommend getting a couple boosters of generations, it is overloaded with cute.

pic related.
I am addicted to the package gambling. I bought like a bulk of old ygo boosters for almost nothing, and I would just keep them in my drawer and open one every now and then. I didn't even want the cards, except for the charmer cycle.

>>25635080
Drawing 3 isn't that bad for an opener, especially in Steel decks that normally don't have a solid Turn 1 and require set up.

It's a lot better than Mew or Celebi.

>>25634669
God all the fucking time. I'm glad that I'm not the only ones because my friends would always stare at me when I did it.

>>25634669

Any suggestions?

Give me your Shaymins :^)

>>25634669
I hate to disappoint you but they don't smell the same. WOTC doesn't do Pokemon TCG anymore, TPCI does, and they use a different chemical to seal packs. So they smell different. Whoever, it's worth noting that because WOTC still does MtG, Magic packs smell a lot like old Pokemon packs because they still use that chemical.

And to answer your original question, I smell my packs all the time.

You can try selling them on ebay.
It's against the TOS and if anyone tries to contest the payment they'll probably win, but it's apparently worth it enough for lots of people to do it.

All supporters have some minimal value, special energies too. As for pokemons, any that does something to stop EX, and evolutionary lines of strong pokemons(dragons usually are pretty good).

It's barely worth anything thanks to the World Championship decks giving you a code that redeems for a Worlds-themed gameplay set and a playset of the Champions Festival promo.

Also...

When I get off work I will. The Pokémon 20 event at the local Target has a female N cosplayer manning the display. Had to do a double-take.

Yo, my Target is run by fucking idiots. I probably saved $300 in the past 2 months by making them honor a misplaced sticker

The highest sticker in the cards area is $19.99

I got the $50 Blazekin box, the $25 lunchbox that has 5 packs, and the $25 Charizard generations box

Had them mark every one down to $19.99, and then got one for free because of the buy2get1 sale

Second time I did it this week
