    Oooo nice! I was looking forward to this video as soon as I saw you got 1st. Also, I did my second cup this sunday and played Miraidon for the first time in a tournament! I got 3-2 and 11th, Im very satisfied with my score for a second cup :). Also I ditched my first cup halfway cause it was like 30+ degrees outside (and inside).
    Edit: Ow I also pulled a stamp Raikou and stamp generator out of my prizes, the fates are telling me Miraidon is a winner haha! (alsooo alt art Iron valliant ex out of my single paradox rift participation pack)
    Edit 2: our cup was a bo3 and sadly a lot of people didn't make it because there was snow here. (Europe sadly isn't always as prepared for it) So instead of like 40+ with 6 rounds, it was 32 with 5 rounds

    Raikou and Raichu cost so much now!! I want to be able to play the deck before the new year but those cards are nowhere to be seen. Should've been a miraidon supporter earlier... Cool vid!

    Sick! Congratulation on the win! It's running tight but I'm 18 cards missing for a 151 master set! I haven't been collecting too long so it's nice to be soo close to finish an awesome set. Although it's not for the end of this year, I'm interested in playing in tournaments or once I get better. Maybe in the new year as a new year goal 😅

    My lgs running a league cup then but unfortunately I haven’t quite finished my miraidon deck 😢. I have like 50/60 of the cards but I still need the miraidons, the forest seal stone and the raikou so my deck will still be quite expensive to finish. I guess my goal is to finish my deck before the end of the year so I can go to some tournaments in jan next year. Congrats on winning though!

    I won my first ever tournament this weekend too, and it was literally my first tournament. Its a local shop in my small-ish town (30k people) and they only run expanded so its different. But my Mew VMAX expanded deck crushed everything in sight (I got pretty lucky a few matches as well) so def gives me some confidence to keep playing haha. Will start running Meowscarada Ex or Miradion Ex as well in standard format

Miraidon is better than Chien Pao, it always beats me. I'll probably upgrade my Miraidon league battle deck going forward, or considering Charizard or Roaring Moon. Good luck!

    Miraidon is really good, except it doesn’t actually do anything. The deck works and has a decent power level, but you are fully reliant on draws and have no ability to create lines back into games. It’s a consistent deck which is good, but gardevoir and sablezard have much higher skill/power ceilings and only slightly lower levels of consistency.
