imo budget decks are a sign of a healthy tcg. the fact you took 10 bux and won a tournament with a anti meta deck says alot. love this video and i would love to see more budget anti meta decks for some more inspiration!
I've never seen any of your content before but it's obvious that you put a ton of work into the presentation of this video and I loved the concept of winning a locals with budget! I hope to see more exceptional content from you!
Your style of explaining everything while having well-done editing is amazing. No fluff while still getting you want to get across. I would love to watch more anti-meta budget decks in the future if you make any!
I just got back into ptcg after a 5 year hiatus. I've got to say, you've definitely put your place into the community since I've left. Hands down, you and celio have the best content in the game. It's really a shame that PTCG is so niche, you'd be easily 100k subs in for pretty much any video game lol
@@BurtsPTCG Have watched this like 3 times over. Absolutely love this and the other rogue deck-building video & tournament format. psst. Try clefairy. Maybe Greedent VMAX :)
Alright these budget videos are pretty cool! I’m new to PTCG and I actually don’t know how to deck build. Videos like these are super helpful! If possible, if your time permits of course, do you think you’d be able to make a video teaching new players how to deck build in a more in depth way? If you already have a video like this I apologize 😅 you’ve both made me a fan of yours and a fan of the game in one video!!
I love budget deck ideas! When it comes to new players, the high prices can definitely be off-putting. I myself love running budget decks like Mad Party, Durant Mill, Zoroark, or Poison Ditto + Shedinja.
Awesome video Mr Burts! The whole part about deck building was very interesting and not too long for people like me who are more like "I want to play this card, because I like it and I will build a deck around it" 😂 I love cardmarket too. Not enough people talk about it
Awesome video man, it really shows that you don't need to break the bank to play the game. This was really interesting to watch, keep up the phenomenal work man.
With Paldea Evolved, Giacomo could be a good shout to deal with those pesky special energies. That has helped me a lot in games against my partner using Fusion Strike Mew, especially against Meloetta's attack that multiplies with each Fusion Strike Energy in play!
I've made my own version based on this deck and I'm gonna take it to local LGC tournaments and try it out, regardless, it seems fun to play and that's all I care deep down. Thanks for sharing your thought process and deck construction :D
Love to hear it! 🙌 And its a good question and one im thinking about! Im definitely gunna run this video back when rotation hits but will probably be after Euic so i can see how the Western meta shapes up! But out of the gate having a good lost box matchup seems important, dark is good cause it hits garde and mew for weakness too! So that seems like the obvious starting point :)
Really enjoyed the video and list do you think you’ll have a follow up for a new budget deck since rotation is coming around the corner cause I really want to get into the game for scarlet and violet.
So enjoyed watching you trounce spendy decks. The upcoming Remove All D changeover may spike some of the Lugia power, but seeing a budget deck clobber the Lugia/Mew machines is just plain fun!!!😂🎉
@@BurtsPTCG Have now tested this in the online version- it does hold up even against Shadow Rider Giratina/lost box variants as well as the other heavy hitters. I may well take this to the Portland Regionals and see how the Happy Fat Guy does…aiming for a Top 16-32 finish; if nothing else, blowing people’s minds with Snorlax is loads of fun!
@@BurtsPTCG Has serious challenges against Dialga/Magneton and Miraidon decks because they’re so fast with big heavies. Lost Box it’s a definite winner, and Arkanine it tends to make whine and cringe. Gardevoir ex is 50-50 or so, and Spidops it generally clobbers.
Please can you do something similar post rotation? Whilst the thought process is good for building decks from first principles, I don't want to be encouraging new players to pick up cards that rotate in a few weeks.
This vid is hype! Although being honest if you have to pay shipping of all the x4 staples price us going to up a bit. Also for some reason the cheapest cards on market are in german😂
Aha shipping can be annoying true but a lot of lgs's I have visited will price match cardmarket (or like 1.25x it) then you can bob and weave the shipping costs! 🙌 Or buy the cards from friends at cardmarket prices works too 🙌 I live in the EU so playing with German cards is legal for me luckily! Appreciate your support tho my friend!
I'm on the fence on whether i should build a single prize wo-chien deck to counter the zard meta at a league cup this weekend or if I just make my walking wake more consistent. Leaning towards the wake since it's consistent against things like chien pao already.
I don't think this Deck is playable in this format unfortunately so i would look at my snorlax cherrim deck video or Zoroark Box video for q new budget deck :)
I would HOPE the deck's under 10 pounds otherwise it'd be too heavy to carry around. _(Note: this is an American joke. In the United States, "pounds" is used as a unit of weight as opposed to currency.)_
So if you activate the vstar ability on the active and have a vstar on bench even if they knock the active one the effect sticks? Would cammo leaf poncho help with gusting effects in this deck? How could it be upgraded with the rotation coming up this month? BTW I love anti meta decks.
It doesn't have to be in the active, just in play :) and i haven't given this Deck much thought post rotation but it only loses quick ball and evolution insence off the top of my head :)
@@BurtsPTCG I wanna play it tbh... I have been slapped enough by aerodactyl Vstar enough might stick in about 20 drapion with it so I never lose a mew v game :P video is solid as always tho ❤️
imo budget decks are a sign of a healthy tcg. the fact you took 10 bux and won a tournament with a anti meta deck says alot. love this video and i would love to see more budget anti meta decks for some more inspiration!
Aww glad you liked it! I definitely will look to do this challenge more! 🙌

Thank you so much! Means a lot! Got plenty more in the works :)
Love everything about this. The budget. The creativity. The anti meta game plan. The pokemon crystal sweatshirt, all of it is great!
Aha! Glad you think so my friend! Appreciate your support! :)
This was a really cool video, it was cool seeing the deckbuilding process behind the list, and nice that you did so well for 7 quid too
Glad it all panned out well! 🙏🙏
This was awesome to watch! Love seeing rogue builds do well for cheap.
Thank you so much! Was very fun to see my creation do well! 🙌🙏

Your too kind my friend! You will like my next upload! And funny you mention greedent cause i was testing that soo much for EUIC 🤣
@@BurtsPTCG I was testing it all day yesterday. It really doesn't work haha
I was playing it with melony and arceus with Raidant blastoise + gloves worked okay but struggled with tina which is why i dropped it 😭
Good job on the video Shai! It was a fun concept, and overview. Plus the editing and scenes were fun along with the commentary. Solid job, 4/4!

It's something I've considered just need the time to sit down and work out all the ins and outs! Once uni is out the way will see what i can do 🙌
I’d love to see something like that as well.
This is amazing! I think Ho-oh works as a really fun budget deck as well.
Thank you! :) and hooh v? 👀

Best PTCG video ive seen in a while, keep up!
Thank you so! Means a lot :)
Great video. Liked the walk through.
Thank you so much! I noticed there wasn't any content on the ins and outs of building decks so thought I would go make some! Glad you liked it :)
Gotta do a rotation version of this video. That was awesome
Might have already been filmed 👀😉 Appreciate the support! :)
Super cool video idea!
Glad you liked it my friend! :)
Fantastic video. I loved to see your thought process, and the concepts behind your deck. Keep up the good work and I can't wait to see more like this!
Thank you my friend! Will look to run this video back post rotation :)
Finally a video for us "ive broken the meta (At the league)!" players haha 😂
Haha 😂 local league heroes!
Awesome video man, it really shows that you don't need to break the bank to play the game. This was really interesting to watch, keep up the phenomenal work man.
Ayo appreciate it my friend! Means a lot 🙏
Awesome video bro!! This is a really cool idea and the video was so entertaining + interesting to watch. Keep up the good work 🔥
Thank you so much! Means a lot 🙏🙏
3 packs for winning u need to come to the south at my shop the winner gets 5+ pack’s depending on the turn out
That is an amazing prize pool! 🙌
Rogue decks have always been my favorite decks due to how cheaply you can make them! Good work
Yeah its always fun when you get the cheap ones to work well haha! 🙏🙌
@BurtsPTCG getting them to work in the first place is the first challenge 😂 so many decks of mine have hit the bin because there's just no synergy
Yeah that's the hard part sometimes :p why i made this video to help people out :)
Do more of this! Excelent Video!
Thank you so much! Means a lot 🙌
nice video and cool deck as well, keep on the good work
Thank you so much! Means a lot 🙏

GG i enjoyed the games we had :)
You where the only one who beat me! ;) well played!
Looking athe leaderboard i should of come 2nd or 3rd
Fun video! Really cool idea
Aha thank you so much! Means a lot 🙏
I used to play yugioh and just started playing pokemon and the most surprising thing I’ve noticed is how affordable it is compared to other card games
Yeah it's great 🙌
Love budget deck videos. 😆
They are always fun!
I've made my own version based on this deck and I'm gonna take it to local LGC tournaments and try it out, regardless, it seems fun to play and that's all I care deep down. Thanks for sharing your thought process and deck construction :D
Hope it goes well for you :)
This inspired me too pick up the game again any tips/thoughts for a budget deck leading into rotation
Love to hear it! 🙌 And its a good question and one im thinking about!

But out of the gate having a good lost box matchup seems important, dark is good cause it hits garde and mew for weakness too! So that seems like the obvious starting point :)
You're really good at building decks
I really like the video, but i gotta ask xd where did you find that pokemon crystal sweater? It's so cool!
@trainermart on Instagram :)
Run a Guts Hariyama one prize. Love flipping heads to negate a KO. Should also be a relatively cheap build
Sounds fun! But hariyama i think would have a terrible lost box match up 😭
Really enjoyed the video and list do you think you’ll have a follow up for a new budget deck since rotation is coming around the corner cause I really want to get into the game for scarlet and violet.
Thank you so much! And yeah definitely will run this back when rotation hits! Will have to see how the Meta adapts first tho 👀
So enjoyed watching you trounce spendy decks. The upcoming Remove All D changeover may spike some of the Lugia power, but seeing a budget deck clobber the Lugia/Mew machines is just plain fun!!!😂🎉
Haha! Really wanted to do well for the video! Glad it all worked out! 🙌 Glad you enjoyed it! 💪

Like hitting a Lugia over the head with a giant mallet like the first Pokémon movie wasn’t icy enough?
😂😂 Had to give it to um 👀👌
everyone loves when the underdog wins.
Tried my best 🙏🙌
God tier content right here
Haha appreciate your support my friend! Means a lot :)
love this video. kudos to using your brain to make a new deck thats viable and different
Aha thank you 🙌 glad u liked it!
That’s the total you would have to pay if he didn’t include reverse holos, holos
and those fancy judges
That's all I had available to me at the time 😂🙏
When u see the meta decks turn around 100$ for the most expensive, that's sign of a fair and healthy tcg (s/o YGO and his decks around 1000 bucks)
I've heard yugioh is wild for card prices 😭
This is a fantastic video. Keep going
Thank you so much :)
Please can you do something similar post rotation? Whilst the thought process is good for building decks from first principles, I don't want to be encouraging new players to pick up cards that rotate in a few weeks.
Im planning to do an ep post rotation yes 🙏
please make more of these
That's the plan! Next one will be post rotation :)

I would say walking wake too! 🙏
8 bucks decks for decent deck like this? That's how TCGs should be.
Would be nice eh!
Great video, sub gained
Thank you so much! Means a lot honestly 🙌🙏
Amazing! One question tho...where do players usually buy singles?
Erm cardmarket is decent if your in eu, Pokedecks now sell singles, jgc collectables or like tcg player if your in the states :)
Now that evolution incense is out of rotation, what would you replace it with?
I don't think this Deck is playable in this format unfortunately so i would look at my snorlax cherrim deck video or Zoroark Box video for q new budget deck :)
@@BurtsPTCG aight cheers mate
What gold sleeve covers do you use?
I spent 20 USD on a full Oinkologne EX deck.
Very good value for money 🙏🙌
Why the rebranding King?
To unify with my personal training brand and cause Burts is the nickname used the most for me now :p
@@BurtsPTCG got it! Hope it catches on
Is the deck list anywhere? I can't seem to find it
I would HOPE the deck's under 10 pounds otherwise it'd be too heavy to carry around.
_(Note: this is an American joke. In the United States, "pounds" is used as a unit of weight as opposed to currency.)_
Haha don't worry I got it 😂
this man COOKIN
Aha 😂 sometimes we hit gold :p
Where do you get the card from ?
Pretty risky using the more expensive promo bibarels to show a budget deck but otherwise looks very cool
price is based on lowest Raities 🙏
Is this a rebranded hot choc? very confused but great video
Hot Choc leveled up!
@@BurtsPTCG Haha love the energy. Just finished watching and it's one of your best in a while!
Aha appreciate that my friend! Means a lot 🙏❤️
And I just wait for deals on the deck boxs😂
That's no fun ;) this Deck slaps the premade decks around anyways 😉
nice!
Thank you! 🙏
So if you activate the vstar ability on the active and have a vstar on bench even if they knock the active one the effect sticks? Would cammo leaf poncho help with gusting effects in this deck? How could it be upgraded with the rotation coming up this month? BTW I love anti meta decks.
It doesn't have to be in the active, just in play :) and i haven't given this Deck much thought post rotation but it only loses quick ball and evolution insence off the top of my head :)
i may be actually dumb but what is that evolutions drowzee doing on that table with the dte mew deck 😭
Was probably his vstar marker 🤣
great idea for a video
Thank you so much :)
Can you make another one of these
I will when rotation hits :)
meanwhile me trying to find the bibarel in the thumbnail already set me back 2 bucks 💀
card prices in my country are F U N
Aww no! What country you from? 😭
here we goooooooooo
What did u think? 👀
@@BurtsPTCG I wanna play it tbh... I have been slapped enough by aerodactyl Vstar enough might stick in about 20 drapion with it so I never lose a mew v game :P video is solid as always tho ❤️
I considered drapion in here ngl! Not a bad idea at all!
does pokémon tcg have sideboarding? that was something I was wondering while watching the video, since it wasn't touched upon
Nope nothing of the sort 🙏
@@BurtsPTCG I see, but are matches played in bo3/bo5? How are you supposed to cover your bad matchups? (or you just don't?)
Can we get 420 likes???
👀👀
Imagine we gave this man 15€ he'd be 4-0
Haha 😂😂 double the budget! :p
Whoa what happened to HotChoc?
Slight rebrand!
this is good
Thank you! 🙌
Hey, whats up with the diffrent channel name? ;P
Slight little rebrand on deck ;)
wheres the deck list
There isn't one, screencap it when its on screen i guess! Rotation will change the deck anyways 😭
I'm so confused. Do you have 2 channels? What's happening haha
Nope, one channel just slightly rebranded!
@@BurtsPTCG I love it bro!
Love to hear it! :)
