By far the funniest thing about Lysandre's Trump Card is that almost immediately after it was banned, Enrique Avila placed second at US Nationals with a 0-energy stall/mill deck that sat on Wailord-EX for 20 turns and waited for their opponent to deck out

Is there footage of this match happening? It sounds interesting
@@fluffyspark798 dunno if there's footage but there are a lot of breakdowns of it. It was a rather amusing concept in that the deck basically just focuses on keeping your wailord alive and nothing else. I think it included stuff like the hammer cards to remove energy; helmets to reduce damage by 20, full/max restores and the supporter equivalents, etc. It was VERY annoying to play against because pretty much ONLY a deck that had wailord's type weakness or could block all forms of support could beat it. As an example, even the night march decks need 2 turns minimum to take out wailord...woops, item card returned it to the hand, back on the bench you go!

actually, Pokemon tends to have a history of banning the wrong cards. For example, Wally was banned due to cards that allow item or ability locks turn 1 ...but those cards weren't banned, allowing them to be instantly played on a player's second turn with other means. Removing wally crippled a ton of decks including one of my favorites at the time that was just a for-fun deck that used dragonite that gained an extra prize card upon KO ; meanwhile, the problem cards remained and could just as easily screw you over turn 3, turning the game into a coin flip of whoever got their combo onto the field first based upon turn order...
@flagrama Жыл бұрын
I feel like the video missed an important part of decks with Maxie or Archie. Exeggcute with the ability Propogation for hand-fixing. The ability allows you to return Exeggcute from your discard pile to your hand, and due to how private/public information works in Pokemon, you can use this ability multiple times on the same turn with the same card. This was an important hand-fixing card to get down to exactly Maxie/Archie in hand because some hands can be almost impossible to play down to a single card, but with Propogation you can do things like have a Maxie and an Ultra Ball in hand, Propogation two Exeggcute from discard and use them as the cost for the Ultra Ball to remain with just the 1 card in hand, whereas without that ability you'd be stuck with no way to get rid of the Ultra Ball and couldn't use the Supporter that turn.

6:05 to anyone who got here from the sister-channels and is wondering, if a player is ever unable to place a pokemon in the active slot, they lose the game on the spot. Since placing a pokemon on the bench (to be able to take the active slot if needed) is an "on your turn" action, it doesn't matter if they're currently holding any reserves (which they probably wouldn't be since a full bench is useful and Shiftree sends victims to the deck), if the last active pokemon leaves play they're hosed. This usually only happens if you brick hardcore and most tournament decks are tuned to the point where it's impossible without significant disruption (which is half the reason disruption effects are so rare and tend to be ban-magnets), but Shiftree exploited this rule and the game's general lack of out-of-turn interaction (put simply, Pokemon does not have counterspells or hand-traps).

I was only watching some poketcg channel, but I'm pretty sure I saw a few videos about the card. so many supporters out at the time for draw, hand ripping, other crazy supporter effects.
