Ignore this its just for the algo
I really enjoy playing the pokemon tcg nothing is better then a good pokemon card pack opening if the pokemon cards are worth money its even better. getting into a pokemon card battle is also fun. Of course playing the pokemon tcg is my forte! like how to build a pokemon deck and playing the pokemon tcg online is how I spend most of my evenings. Pokemon tcg tournament are also great and if you even need any help on how to play the pokemon tcg then let me know! Dont forget you can also open pokemon tcg pack online too! Ive never got to open packs with leonhart or randolph but hopefully will soon! Not pokemon vgc pokemon vgc online or pokemon tcg world championships. Building pokemon decks is very fun! watching other deck profiles and deck lists is very helpful
As soon as I head the company hated it. They literally printed 3 DIRECT counters to the deck, 1 being one of the strongest decks in a while, and mew VMAX was STILL out there winning tournaments
The fact drapion and tomb existed was wild and mew still one worlds is mad
@@BurtsPTCG Same can be said for lost box currently. Just because the deck was playable with counters does not necessarily mean it was ridiculously broken. Lost Box just topped a regional even though Kyurem exists which is a die hard counter to lost box. The same went for Mew Vmax. If someone really wanted to beat Mew Vmax all they had to do was in tech in a Drapion and they were gonna beat Mew almost every time. Also the statement that a deck that’s good the whole time it’s in rotation isn’t really valid anymore. Lost box has been good ever since introduced, and Charizard is looking to be that way. So overall I stand to say that Mew Vmax was not half as broken as people act like it was just because they lost to it
I legitimately was so fed up with Mew VMAX while trying to just make fun decks, I decided to bite the bullet and make a Perrserker V deck, which would wall most V using decks out (Duraladon was the exception and even then it had techs for stuff like Miltank in Crobat BST) by using Hisuian Goodra's ability
Mew VMAX being able to attack with it's non-v attackers was something annoying
@ExpertJewel i hard disagree actually. You're giving not enough credit to mew for just how long it was one of the best decks in the meta, how many different formats it ended up winning in and being one of the best, including winning worlds, how many counters just didn't work for it, and Drapion wasn't even an instant win, as we saw with said worlds deck.
@@ExpertJewel It's not the fact it was always good, but the fact it was always able to kill counters. Lost Box loses to solid single prize decks like Ancient Box, and Charizard is a deck that holds its own but is beatable. Mew VMAX was basically unkillable by anything but Mew VMAX and if you played it right, Perrserker V. But the thing is, Perrserker V was a ROGUE deck at the time, so people were not commonly playing Perrserker V. They were playing stuff like Eternamax Eternatus, Duraladon VMAX, Lugia VSTAR, Regidrago VSTAR and Hisuian Zoroark VSTAR, in addition to stuff like Lost Box. Hell, I only encountered another Perrserker player ONCE in my entire play history. If a deck needs a specific counter or itself to be defeated, then it's a broken deck. No-one debates ADPZ's placement as one of the most broken decks of all time, and the thing is, Mew VMAX was on the level of ADPZ in terms of being broken. Anything in rotation now is leagues healthier than SWSH era decks
Snorlax players’ daily cardio is drawing for turn
Goodness 😭
Snorlax player here, can confirm thats my cardio.
@@lonewolf975 well damn, reporting on the spot, you may be the most interesting Snorlax player out there. Gotta respect
the dramatic irony of when mew vmax started running path is insane. It literally absorbed the one thing that people ran to counter it flipped it around to it's advantage. Path to the peak is ironically a very fitting name for mew vmax, as embracing it was it's path straight to the peak of it's competitive viability.
Yeah exactly! So funny😂
"Let's make a whole TCG Exclusive Battle Style that revolves around one Boss Pokemon that's a Trple Prizer with no Retreat Cost, Archetype Exclusive PlusPowers and has a Basic Support Pokemon which is a soft Claydol Engine!! What could possibly go wrong?"
And shred attack and energy thst makes it immune to opponents abilities 😂😭
@@BurtsPTCGand archetype specific energy that let's you ignore effects of abilities
My group chat with my friends that play the card game is still named Mew VMax Hate Club
😂😭 Hate club is funny
I want to be in that club!
The only reason I'd want a Mew VMAX is purely for collection. I wouldn't be that guy and play this deck! I don't care about the meta, I love the art most
Meanwhile in 2000, Trapper Combo turbo was such cancer that tournaments were starting to run 15-3 format just so people couldn't play it anymore.
Talk to me about trapper👀
Don't forget about Sneasel slowking which prevented people to play trainers while you did avg 70 to 80 per turn in a max 120HP era.
Trap combo basically was emplopying the combination of Imposter prof oak and Rockets sneak attack from the team rocket expansion and then rocket's trap from the second gyms expansion.
Impostor oak reduced your hand to 4 cards.
Rockets sneak attack showed opponents hand and if there was a trainer you would select it and shuffle into the deck ( very likely in a trainer heavy meta)
now the opponent has 3 cards then you played the rocket's trap and if the coin flip was heads, you basically shuffled the entire hand into the opponent's deck leaving them to the mercy of top decking. Very strong shutdown strategy.
Ohh i see, I am familiar with that I didn't know it was reffered to as trapper. Yeah that time looked awful to play 😭
@@TrollOmnipotence Sneasel Slowking also existed during the era of Focus Babies. You had to flip a coin to do ANYTHING to them, then flip another coin to see if Focus Band saved them. So games often came down to two Cleffa screaming at each other until someone managed to set up. And it was usually whoever was playing Slowking.
What an awful couple of formats that was. Between that and people losing interest in Pokemon in general around that time, it was probably the closest the TCG ever came to dying. Japan even tried to salvage it with a reboot that simplified the rules, but the western division just outright refused to print it (which was probably a big reason Nintendo wasn't willing to cut any sort of deal with Wizards of the Coast when their license expired).
@TheLordTash this sounds interesting! Thanks for the heads up will look into this 👀 do u have any resources I can look at about this? 👀
Playing Pokemon TCG Pocket has introduced me to this whole new world. Cool video looking forward to learning more about the game!
Ayo I'm glad! There's a lot history I will be covering 🔥
I started playing Pokemon TCG around the time Mew V Max was dominating the Format and it wasn’t fun fighting against it lol but I learned and adapted. Im glad it’s gone but now Charizard sort of took over lol
I miss when Mew cards were just collectable promotional junk.
😂😂 Definitely not the case recently!
Mew supremacy 💯
@@HaggisDruid Mewpremacy
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate you, man. My brother, my girlfriend, and I got into collecting and playing the tcg around a year ago, and we absolutely love to hear or watch you on stream - we're always like: "Hell yeah, the Burts' there, too!". You always appeared to us to be someone who's passionate about this game, who genuinely loves to talk about the tcg. Love from Germany, I hope you know you have real fans out there who are looking forward to watch you on stream for upcoming championship events.
Stay strong and healthy ❤
Ayo your too kind my friend! Honestly means a lot😭😭
most hated? ADP much?
I will die on the hill that lucmetal was just as bad 👀🤣
Is it bad that I think snorlax stall is worse than both of them
Some people probably agree tbf!
@@BurtsPTCG yeah lol, mostly because in my first ever league challenge I played against it with no idea of what to do, and never liked it since
@@Panic_Attack420yeah not a whole lot you can do against a stall deck if your deck isn't built for it and usually you don't run into them. one strategy I have is to stall for time to get the draw.
0:17 Opening rhe video with the Silent Hill OST definitely sets the mood for the vid
👀😅
Who ever decided that Genesect V's abillity could stack, should be fired! X'D (laughing through the salty, salty tears)
I was STUNNED when it was first translated and it wasn't once per turn 😂
Yes, Fusion Strike Mew VMAX was indeed a thing to be hated. Receiving all buffs and nearly no drawbacks in a single set, beefed up to its extremes since day 0. I have invested TONS of booster packs online (which were dirty cheap anyways) to assemble a full art version of this deck (yeah, my kink), with initial intent to know how to battle AGAINST it by playing it a bit more...
Then, weeks later, I caught myself smoothly navigating with it across the ladder, some in-game tournaments - with all the loathing, I found it to be a convenient deck which rewarded players with good sequencing skills. Both DTE and Elesa builds (as well as hybrids and wonky ones, such us Path To The Peak/Bibarel) were awesome, and I even bought two WC decks - one with Arceus VSTAR and Flying Pikachu, and Shape Of Mew, just to have a pleasure of showing my aspiring TCG player daughter what it felt like when two unstoppable powers clashed in the same, most top ranked event.
I dearly miss this deck, but I am also glad that this format is free from this toxicity. I have always believed Mew to be toxic, but I still played it - because you do not give up on an efficient deck because of its reputation. I strongly believe that I will dive into Expanded to see Mew VMAX strong in my hands again.
It did well in a champions league expanded event in Japan! 🙏
yah knew going it had to be mew vmax or ADP. good video as always!!
Haha you were on the money 👀
I'm old so i immediately thought of the hydropump deck. When it got banned our local shops didn't care so every week the same guy would win the tournament for like a year straight. Dark times.
Haha no way seriously? 🤣
As a former magic player, I'm fascinated by these pokémon tcg videos my algorithm started showing me. I was kinda interested in trying pokémon, since I wanted a new tcg after dropping off of magic, but these cards effects are way too bonkers. I don't feel like modern pokémon suits me after all lmao
Mew was an outlier and the tailend of a pretty bad format I wouldn't use it as a litmus test of whether to hop in or not tbf!
I loved this deck. First deck I won a tourney with.
Love to hear it🙏🙌
“But at… what cost?”
My cousin played Mew Vmax for the entirety of its existence (once he started playing the TCG) and it was a nightmare for everyone else in my family who played. But eventually everyone caught up in terms of powerful cards, and honestly I think I can look back at Mew Vmax fondly now.
That's a nice story! I personally Loved the deck 🙏
@@BurtsPTCG The only downside being that I was a Rapid Strike player.... 💀
Oh goodness! Had to tread carefully😂
I've seen this deck a few times online recently but I didn't kow how truly strong it is, holy crap!
😂 It was a monster!
I actively pulled some pokemon for the first time since childhood recently but I never got around to building a deck before magic sucked me back in, i rlly wanna get fully back into the tcg tho, it's way more interesting than I thought!
Ayo let's go! Come get involved 👌
Loved the backing music
Ayo! Appreciate you 👏
Came for the thumbnail, stayed for the video, great stuff!
Ayo appreciate your support 😭🙏
I instantly knew that this was Mew VMAX
You were right on the money 😂
Honestly expected ADP, the amount of conceding the moment you'd us the GX was crazy.
I will do an adp video soon for sure 🙏
Mew&MewtwoGX and now MewVmax. This Pokémon sure has a great history
It really has 😂😭
I didn't mind the Mew V Max deck, because the deck I played with at the time was a Smog Burst Weezing with Galarian Moltres V and Galarian Weezing for support. So I had an easy time hitting for weakness on it with primarily 1 prize Pokemon that gained 40 damage for each additional energy on the Weezings on the board (which was easy to double to 80 with direwing flames and an energy switch), and a Galarian Moltres V that could always 1 shot it that was easy to get 3 energy on. I would have liked to play competitively during that time.
Smog Burst Weezing can easily hit for 120 or more by turn 3 at 1 energy cost. Then Zoroarks Phantom Transformation abilitly just keeps reviving it. It's a little slow and a little inconsistant, but it was a Mew killing deck that I stumbled onto. Palkia was a little harder, but I've perfecred it since and was having good luck on TCGLive while they were all in format.
And it's worthless against Lugia V Star and all competitive decks since, because everything revolves around how fast that stupid deck is. It's made the whole game determined by the end of turn 2.
I personally had a ton of fun with mew vmax, I learned the game on that deck and it was a good time, in retrospect I can see how crazy it was but as a new player I was more than happy to play my cool looking mew cards and I learned a ton
I loved the deck personally 😂🙏
Hey! This is the format I started playing Pokémon!
I played for 3 months and never looked back ☺️
Glad your still around! :)
@BurtsPTCG Oh, sorry if I wasn't clear.
I sold my cards and never played another game. 😅
When your locals is just 7 Mew V Max, and 1 Urshifu (That's me!), then it gets really boring losing 95% of the time on turn 1.
Love watching videos ab the TCG, just don't participate anymore is all. Love the video!
I bought this deck as the world championship deck a while ago for my son's first deck, not realizing how broken it was. When he finally realized how to play it, its been a rough time in my house. Haha
Haha yeha I can imagine 😂🤣
Bro i was choosing between watching this video or a silent hill one and you decide to throw my brain for a ride with that music
Haha well I guess you got a little bit of the silent hill video too then ;p
Sorry but Mew Vmax is my boi, is the first competitive deck I played and I really liked how it played, it swept the floor with me on occasions but I can't never be mad at the guy.
I personally loved the deck can't lie 😂
I'm honestly surprised they didn't outright say like, using a set amount of cards together is explicitly banned
I wonder if it was ever on there minds cause after tomb dropped and the deck was still popping there really wasn't many other options 🤣
@@BurtsPTCG I think the counter argument is it's too hard to know every op combo, they could of outright banned the card though
Silent hill 3s “end of small sanctuary” is one of my favorite game OSTs, good choice for your opening.
Ayo appreciate you! 🙏
The strike stuff looks like a rlly fun mechanic tbh!
Yeah overall I liked it! 🙏
In magic and I would assume also in pokemon, Sets take well over a year to design, and after designed take over 6 months from start of printing to release. Mightyena was released just over 6 months after mew so it was sent to the printer before mew released. Drapion was 9 months after which is around the soonest you can get an emergency bandaid out but will forego most of the testing, meaning you should not take any risks with what you release. Spirit Tomb came out 18 months later which is a card that went through the both the design and balancing processes and the reason why it was designed in a way that had counterplay while also potentially locking someone out of the game.
Yeaj that's the problem with printing cards if you need to maneuver it can get tough 😭
For me Mew VMAX is the best deck of all time, when I started playing I bought one Battle Mew Deck and after 4 months of playing and some changes I won my first Pokemon Cup with 0 losses, and 2nd place one week later on another Cup (final against Charizard ex :( ). This deck was legendary, I miss it every day :D Great video, great memories.
Ayo let's go! Yeah I have a soft spot for it so much haha
I heard "Murderous Echo" and I am never unhearing it now.
I means it's pretty accurate eh 👀🤣
Does anyone know what the song that starts playing at 15:29 is called? I've heard it before but can't put my finger on where
th-cam.com/video/7lUSMqzxr2M/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6ppw1j0MQtCT1gIl :)
@BurtsPTCG GOATed, thank you my friend
Always gotta look out for people after the bangers 😂🙏
I stopped playing the TCG for a while, so I never really got to see the Mew VMax dominarion. But when I came back, I started hating Charizard decks so hard. Every time I play the online game, I would go against one of those and be so mad. after watching yours and other videos, I learned more about the game and realized how to play the game better. Now, im even starting to build IRL decks to play.
Ayo lets go! So happy to hear it my friend 🙏
ooooh, for a second I thought you were going to go back to the old days and talk about Haymaker decks
If we going back that far I think Slowking, Sneasel or the rocket hand lock stuff was more rampant then haymaker 👀🙏
@@BurtsPTCG oh yeah, the NEO series was notoriously bad with busted cards :P
I played a version of dis deck in the SLC regional March ‘22 (when Nintendo wuz reopening live events after the “dampenic” started dying down)
My list placed 10th (piloted by Caleb Gedemer)
I bumped into Andrew Mahone at the event and he kindly autographed my Mew Vmax deck box and the leader card
Truly fun memories‼️
Ayo let's go! That's very cool 👌
Mew vmax is my favorite deck of all time, and i doubt that will change anytime soon (pika ex with regis has been a ton of fun tho, they might get close)
Don't worry it was one of my favourites too 🤣😭
Ayo let's go! I love mew Vmax too 😂 9je of my personal faves 💪
"Go ahead. Draw as many cards as you want. " - Durant
This is very true 😂
I had a brief stint on the TCG app, and this deck was running rampant at the time. Reminded me why I don’t like playing TCGs competitively, frankly!
Fair enough, that probably wasn't the most fun of experiences 😭
@BurtsPTCG it was more of a “oh THIS deck again 🙄” experience, I like when there’s more diversity and less-efficient, more-goofy pet decks that people are running cause it’s fun. Which isn’t really ANY TCG’s competitive scene. Not a knock against the game or people who ran the deck!
I remember when the biggest draw engines were the Claydol with Cosmic Power and Uxie with Set Up! The Genesect V draw engine makes those two look like amateurs!! O_O Drawing about 20 cards in a single turn is INSANE!!
It really was insane 😂😭
@@BurtsPTCG You must've gone through some tough times going up against that deck. And I got a story to tell
To be honest I quit Pokemon TCG around early XY because the community got so bad and I was removed as a judge for catching one of the head judge's friends cheating in the TCG and then as I played against another one of the head judge's friends in a friendly match using Gardetelle(Gardevoir and Gothitelle from BW sets), and he got really mad that I was doing the multi pile shuffle as he called a judge over and the judge said I was good for it and the guy was cursing me out like a sailor making me uncomfortable and the head judge did nothing so I told him "If you support cheating and all the awful stuff they're saying I want no part of this game" And as I said "I quit" you could hear a pin drop in the room. I never quit until then
When I last played the Pokémon TCG, the most HP of Pokémon had was still 120
2000 vibes
you forget to add that fusion strike energy prevented all effects of your opponents abilities done to the attached. Meaning spiritomb couldnt even counter the genesect draw
Thought I covered that tbf! 👀😭
I expected it to be the Unown HAND deck that has no energy and whose only strategy is to draw 35 cards on turn one to instantly win
In expanded? It got banned pretty quick no?
@@BurtsPTCG No idea
Watching videos like this, the ADP recap, etc make me really interested in the game as a pocket only player.
Due to how fundamentally different pocket is from the paper format, low key I want some of this bullshit ported just to see how it'd play. Typically, idm high powered "do or die" formats, and imagining some of these cards with sick immersives is also getting me lol.
Pocket is definitely fun to be fair 🙏
I started playing Pokémon TCG during Fusion Strike. What a time to get into the game 😅
You knew nothing but straight POWER 😂
I hate Mew because every time I played it, I drew nothing and would lose against piles. But when I played against it, my opponents always had everything they needed or drew into it without any issues if they didn't. It was so stupid. Good riddance.
Sad times 😭
Cyllene is incredible. I think it's even better, today, than when it came out. It's definitely underrated!! Why? Because you can put many Ace Specs back into your deck! Same with Rosanne's Back-Up.
Very true!
Drapion V was like Doom Guy and Mew deck were the demons, thank goodness for that Pokemon, truly a blessing
Haha it was definitely a thorn in mews side!
Thats a very cool profile pic you have there
It's me on the laic 2023 stage :)
This video reminded me just how much I hated this format. Because Mew was everywhere, so was path to the peak, meaning it was almost impossible to play anything that relied on it's ability that wasn't Arceus. I was so happy when it finally rotated
Yeah path was wild 😭
@@BurtsPTCG And that was just as we were getting free from Chatoic Swell 😭
Yeah great point actually 🤣😭
I knew from the title that the deck was Mew Vmax. While I myself never played it or against anyone who had the deck, I was still well aware of how great the deck was, so I still had to respect it for that alone. I remember all too well how people thought that the counters they were printing to deal with this deck, ESPECIALLY Drapion V, would finally be the last nail in the coffin for Mew Vmax, only for the deck to start playing Path to the Peak and stand it's ground. I was also jot really that surprised to hear that Mew Vmax won the last World Championship it was in, which for me personally cemented my opinion of the deck: I have to respectfully disagree with you, Burt, on Lugia V Star being the best deck of all time -- Lugia, as powerful as it was at it's peak, had it's fair share of ups and downs, but Mew Vmax was always consistently a top deck, if not at the very least a contender in the meta, for as long as it remained in standard. In my eyes, being able to maintain that level of consistency for as long as it had makes it the greater deck -- both because it could beat the decks that countered it, and also because it never stopped being a notable fixture in the metagame -- that, in my opinion, means more than having one super dominant format
I think Ice Calyrex was a deck that could have been the counter to Mew VMAX and still would've been a successful deck, at least during London World's meta.
It was okay, think it got a top 16 2022 worlds off the top of my head 👀
"Everyone hated it, even Creatures."
Proceeds to spend so many minutes describing the epic struggle for survival by the deck's diehards. What happened to that 'Everyone' hating?
I used this deck and all i gotta say is… A win is A WIN
This is very true 🤣
This deck refused to be put down
So true!
Good video, very enjoyable. However, I would recommend getting a gimble or something - the camera shaking when panning over the cards was kind of annoying.
Thanks for the feedback!
I thought the most hated deck was the deck me that makes you draw until you loose
So this was the deck that got me back in the game. I'm serious.
The Mew VMAX League Battle Deck was on a retail shelf somewhere and I looked into it.
I quit playing with the advent of Tag Teams just causing way too much powercreep and making it almost impossible to make a competitive deck. Then 3 years later, here's a deck that's almost ready for competitive play right out of the box!
It was great playing on ranked with this when it lasted. Though Charizard ex from Obsidian Flames just crushed this deck's viability even with the many ways you could work around Charizard with Path to the Peak and Eiscue bench sniping.
It's funny I say this because I play Charizard and Gardevoir now but that's a different story.
I'll admit that the draw support for this deck was insane, but it felt manageable to work around it with special energy removal and Path to the Peak shutting them down early.
Yeah the battle deck was incredible all things considered! Glad ur playing again 👌
I knew before I even clicked on this video that it was Mew VMAX.
😂😂 Fair play!
People have completely forgotten about night march
Quick question: Does Pokemon have a best of 3 and a sideboard you can use between games?
Competition at regional or higher level events is bo3 yes! And no sideboarding at all no 👀
"you could do all this on the first turn!" not with my draw luck.
😅😭
The background music I love you
Haha i gotchu ;)
I thought this was actually going to be about Neo Genesis Slowking with either Donphan or Sneasel.
Next week's video 👀
In my experience, Mew VMax meta wasn't anywhere near as toxic as ADP meta.
I love Mew Vmax❤❤❤ Got a 9th place regional finish with Fusion Mew
Ayo let's go! Which regional?
@BurtsPTCG Toronto last year, I was so heartbroken I didn't make top 8, but still getting a top 16 using Fusion Mew in a meta with Zard and Lugia everywhere is so crazy to me🔥 (I'm a senior)
Night March was the worst deck
No reason a joltik would be able to ohko the strongest ex Pokémon’s at the time
And to those saying “it has 30 health”
The issue was that you were usually trading one for one but since you have an ex Pokémon they get 2 prizes to your 1 prize
Not to mention that night March required a single double energy to be used
I thought you were talking about Durant mill for a second lmao
That's on my list of things to cover tbf :p
Spiritomb was actually such a disgusting release it's insane. They often have this mania of releasing more broken cards to beat decks they don't want to be good anymore. Reminds me of their relationship with night march. Maybe you could talk about all the damage that was done during XY era just to try and stop night march from being a viable deck in a future video, because that's another example of them releasing absolutely disgusting cards just to counter 1 archetype and it not being successful. On top of that the only results being had are worsening the format itself.
Yeah night march was a great example too actually!
Played in a tournaments and won against 4 new decks back to back once it got to the 5th one I just walked out
😭
Night March should be way more hated than Mew VMAX, least the latter had counter archtypes, and was very beatable in large tournaments so didn't always win. Night March and its even more OP Beemarch upgrade had nothing that could stop it for almost its entire existence in the metagame. In fact they tried to stop it with Lysandre's Trump card, but were forced to ban it. Literally it wasn't until Breakpoint finally came out with Pyroar BREAK and Greninja BREAK that it finally met its death before rotating.
Pyroar break? I don't follow 👀
@@BurtsPTCG Before Night March rotated I created an anti-meta deck called Pyroar-BREAK with Talonflame-BREAK. It went undefeated right before rotation (this was before anyone was bringing the new Greninja deck thankfully haha), as the metagame at the time was extremely Basic Pokemon heavy. Pyroar's base form was immune to basic pokemon at the time.
I had no context, but started playing online tcg right before that Lugia meta came about and it made me quit. Good to know I wasn't entirely just a wuss
It was WILD
@BurtsPTCG went in thinking it would be like 2010 with my Infernape lvlX card....nope not the same game LOL
Murderous echo? That’s what I am hearing and it feels far more appropriate of a name.
Murdous echo is accurate🤣😭
If I don’t see jolteon and glaceon from evolutions I’m gonna suggest you try that out
The ex's?
great video dude! i'd recommend that you improve your thumbnail style though; the thumbnails make it hard to distinguish one video from another and quite honestly they don't look all that nice. cheers!
Thanks for the feedback! 🙏
Ptcg cards are so pretty. Most of the reason why I play. Distracted by shiny. Yes, I have ADHD.
They are very nice tbf 🤣🙏
I still remember when the worst thing ever in the TCG was Mega Gengar Spirit Link
Phantom gate 👀
Mew VMAX is strong, but remember, it's weakness to Dark types, especially Eternatus VMAX, which can deal 480 damage against Mew VMAX
That is true!
@@BurtsPTCG but I 100% didn't make a dark type deck to counter mew decks (2 of my friends own one) but cause Dark type is cool as hell
@israeljenkins8107 dark types are cool can't lie 😂🙏
Notification sound at 8:12 ?
Keep people on there toes with the pop up 😂
@BurtsPTCG totally fair. I must say, you got me. I rewinded like 6 times to make sure I wasn’t going crazy
I haven't played much of the TCG so I clicked on this video expecting to see something historical but no, I played agaisnt this personally
Shame, I guess? 😭
As soon as I clicked on the video I knew it was either ADP Zacian or Mew VMax
But hearing "the company hated it" made me know it was Mew VMAX. They printed so many things to try and directly counter it and Mew was still like "Nah, I'll win" 😂
Absolutely insane how mew had drapion and tomb in format and won worlds 🤣
Yep, when i play TCG Live, if i run into a FS deck i will most likely forfeit after a few turns
Its not worth the headache
Yeah on live the turns would take ages 😭
I dipped out of the TCG after Legends (Base Set 3) came out. I think it was a week or two before the next set released and they changed the face design of the cards. I eventually came back and tried to get in to it with one of the Plasma sets, Freeze, I think. I immediately quit again after that set. The power creep was ridiculous in the game and it turned me off of it just as fast as WotLK did for me in WoW.
I just stick to playing casual games with Pre-Legends Set only. I find that way more fun than modern Pokemon.
I'm actually planning a video about "the day pokemon changed forever" or something like that. Where I feel in a 3 set window the game changed super heavily. Might interest you maybe :)
@BurtsPTCG Subbed and look forward to it.
Appreciate it! I think it will be not the next video but the video after 🙏
Teal Mask Ogerpon go brrrr
I'll definitely cover teal mask soon cause it had so much coverage at 2024 worlds it was insane 😅
its either Mew Vmax or Toads slurpuff
Edit: Yepppp agreed
You were right on the money 😂 toad puff is coming soon 👀
Bro seismitoad ex era was probably the worst format to play
Keep an eye out next Saturday 👀😉
ADP ruined the game for anyone trying to play non-meta decks which some of us actually enjoy doing. Putting weird decks togther that could compete with the top-tier decks was never easy to begin with but ADP turning single prize Pokemon into two prizers and if you did have a support GX they'd just Boss that up for three prizes.
Instead of banning it they just pumped out more and more boxes and it was everywhere. It caused me to stop playing.
Adp was wild 😭
What's a fusion strike? What's a Vstar? 🫣
I really didnt have anything against mew vmax except in one instance. I was running hot with arc-deci-pika at baltimore 2023, a week before lost origin was legal. Ran 5-3-1 on the day, losing my win and in. My only losses on the day were Piper (and i took a game off her) and two Mews. If only i didnt miss that dte in time to retreat bibarel vs palkia....
Now if this video was about the actual ADP....... *rages in pikarom and reshizard*
Aww no! Sorry to hear that 🤣😭
Most beautifull time in the game. Loved MEW VMax
I loved it to can't lie 😂
Isn't this what mid season bans are for? For removing cards the company found out after the fact are way, WAY stronger than intended?
Bans in pokemon are very very rare! Reckon mew was very close to it though 😂😭
does this game not have a banlist? i played ptcgl a bit and there was no banlist section in the app and nothing i had was limited or banned. im playin pocket now and there is a disclaimer on the pull rate section that say they might change or restrict a card for fair gameplay
Nah not really, banned cards are very rare in pokemon!
I kinda wish I went with the Mew VMax instead of sticking to Gardevoir.
Garde was good as well tbf!
Don't worry, I promise not to hate you if you played that god forsaken Mew against me.
Well....maybe.
A lot of people hated me for playing. I understand 🤣😭
Now I feel the opposite is happening to Charizard ex. I see basically everyone running the same engine.
Are they? Charizard only had like 8% day 1 laic😭
Close enough welcome back summer of Hogaak
What's hoggak? 👀
@BurtsPTCG Hogaak was a Magic card that resulted in an extremely suffocating strategy wherein players were able to get a massive creature out extremely early and snowball from there. It lasted for about a summer (and a pro tour (I think)) before getting banned
@average_person444 oh does sound pretty similar then tbf!
