These matches always keep me on the edge of my seat. I greatly appreciate your time and effort into making these games possible and enjoyable for the viewers. Thank you
Okay, that was insane. I can see why modern Pokémon TCG makes for a superb spectator sport. Dozens of moving pieces, wild and unlikely combos left and right, long climactic turns... quite a different monster from a format like Base-Fossil with dozens of brisk turns. Of course, this current age of the game also borrows much of its insanity from the age of Lugia/Blastoise/Steelix and Dark Tyranitar/Electrode... cards like Iono Pidgeot ex, Counter Catcher, and Thornton are all more or less based on cards from the EX era. Even Dusknoir is a spiritual successor of Electrode ex... back when Energy acceleration was a luxury, Electrode ex could let you play 2005 games at 2015 speed and quickly catch up on prizes, but now that Energy acceleration is the norm and giving up prizes to access it is a joke outside of Expanded, Pokémon applied the same principal to direct damage output and created a new master of rigging false comebacks and running your opponent off the board.
I suppose it also helps that all the shuffling inherent in modern formats is edited out, making it feel less like two alternating solitaire sequences and more like back-to-back mad sprints to anime-tier counterattacks.

Nice to see current format content! well played :)
Thanks!
what's the deckles for both decks
Great match! So Thornton allows the Charmander that reached the bench to evolve same-turn? If so, I’ll be working one of those into my deck, for sure!
Thorton gives the new pokemon the same number of turns on the bench that the previous pokemon had
@@holon_phantom That is so broken under the right conditions; that the card doesn't mention it being part of the benefits
how do you beat charizard as a raging bolt player? zard will almost always get ahead in the prize race, either by using duskull or radzard
its pretty tough, you just gotta hope that you can set it up quickly enough and dodge their single prizers as much as you can.
about time
Lol
Zard
