This format is pretty awful but this is probably the best worlds finals besides 2010. I still think virgen mirror is insanely fun but hypnotoxic laser kinda ruined this format
+Hagan Brown I used to discard energy for every (attack) move the first couple of games before I knew the basic rules. I thought that made more common sense, and I bet heaps of people actually start out playing it that way.
Even the Juniors' finals of this exact year were more optimized than this. What a horrid start to ANY game despite everything that has led up to this point. We at least had a Pikachu that could attack with a bad hand.
***** If he *should* have he *would* have. It's unfortunate that he lost, but no one is *meant* to win anything unless the game has been rigged, and even then, said person would have one based on cheating, not because they should have.
my opponent has a 1 card hand and no energy down with no benched pokemon and a jirachi active... i think i'll play N. How on earth is this guy constantly winning stuff?
I really don't know how to play TCG, so if the crowd goes wild, I just go on with the flow. I don't even know who won at first game if it is Andrew or Igor
Just a question... Is it legal to use World Championship Decks (the re-prints you can buy in stores) in leagues. Like, not official leagues, just local clubs.
funny to go back and see just how bad the "best" players were. truly terrible gameplay from igor. i think that's part of what made the game so exciting back then, though. bad decks, techs, and gameplay
g13agb they have a set you can run and a rotation that happens every year, they are running BW- through some set. Currently (2016-2017 season) you can run XY primal clash- current set (the most current set is Sun and Moon base set)
Andrew drew a Plasma Energy, which activates Genesect's Ability, which in turn let him bring up the undamaged Genesect, and KO it with G Booster, leaving the game tied, with Igor having no energy on his side, which put Andrew at a gigantic advantage. He was then able to Shadow Triad for the Plasma Energy again, which was discarded by G Booster's effect, letting him drag out another EX and G Booster it for the KO, completing his incredible comeback.
I cant believe Igor used N knowing his opponent had absolutely NOTHING

Anyone in 2024?
Jwittz??? Cool to see him on another channel
this is way cooler then all of the worlds after this

Congratulations on making it to finals Andrew, your making our country proud. Go Canada!🤩✨
Any one else watch this in utter confusion because this is one of their first times watching the card game being played correctly?
+Hagan Brown Yup. Normal people NEVER play right. (Expect me)
+Hagan Brown I used to discard energy for every (attack) move the first couple of games before I knew the basic rules. I thought that made more common sense, and I bet heaps of people actually start out playing it that way.
Am I the only one who collected the trading cards just for the pretty pictures and never played the actual trading card game?
Not really, when I was 6 I thought they were collections :P But since I got so good at playing, im entering this next year!!
No
I love the pics but I also battle
When I was 7
yes you're the only person in the entire world who did that.
Who else is watching this all the way in 2020? 🙋
One of the best matches in history
Devin Cameron I didnt understand anything
Regular match
I came here bc i notice my pokemon card had the champion of 2014 pokemon now I know that my card won the 2014 champion thats cool
congrats sometime I want to enter the championships
Hope to be there again next year! World's was amazing!
I'm not here for Jwittz

Igor deserved to lose. Rule #1: NEVER give your opponent more cards.
***** If he *should* have he *would* have.
It's unfortunate that he lost, but no one is *meant* to win anything unless the game has been rigged, and even then, said person would have one based on cheating, not because they should have.
@@MisC21 shut up
I always loved andrew estrada so I'm still rooting for him in Pittsburgh hopefully he will win
I say if you're about to leave watch at least the 3rd duel.
how can you leave after the first game?
@@IDWpresents i gotta leave because your mother is calling me
JWITTZ, I AM ONE YOUR AWESOME FANS!!!!
Pretty effing EPIC! I also do like Sableye's Mega form as well. The next Pokemon games should be AWESOME!
My magikarp deck will beat em all!
S t f u
PORTUGAL
Harrison had the Energy Switch, prized Shaymin. Igor had the Shaymin, prized Energy Switch. A bitter sweet sense of justice.
Vanguardmetrics how is it "justice" that is what happens come times, just part of the game.
It's great knowing a champion in real life ^_^
best finals ever
Omg SOO good poker faces
You mean Poké faces right?.......
I'll see myself out
TechnoBambino ahahhahhahaha that is punny
P-p-p-p-p-poké face
Joshua Wittenkeller.........
Sounds familiar.........
When I saw jwittz I was like oh my god get the media!
jwittz!
I know how you feel bro
yep
agreed
Epic last game!
Andrew did a very good job with his N's
I met Jason at the Houston Regionals about a month ago!
Who cares
im just video surfing, saw this and decided to watch. whats with the old guys in white coats? refs/judges? what are they writing down?
Referees, I guess. I'm assuming they're writing down a log of the entire battle.
MannyKunV they are judges, they make sure everything runs smoothly and no cheating, ect in the most important Pokémon match in the year.
Hey Jwittz
!
my opponent has a 1 card hand and no energy down with no benched pokemon and a jirachi active... i think i'll play N. How on earth is this guy constantly winning stuff?
Sometimes you just have to play N to get what you need and in the position Andrew was in it looked like he would win
Heck ya Canada!
Hey it's J-Whitz again
I have Igor Costa's Shaymin.
When I saw jwitz I was like wha?
It's a thecno blast to the past
I love josh he's so cooollll!!!!
I want to go this year.I have a full deck.
+Andrew Richey it has to be good
+unlistedleaf pokemon fan lol
Andrew Richey gratulations
It has to be good and you also have to be good
I got Andrew Estrada's deck. He's the best.
Wow, those players are so fast. It is like I am watching the video on fast forward. I can't even tell what is going on.
Is G booster still in expanded or is it banned because the thing is over powered
IMO It should be best of 5 its grand finals...
That would take quite a long time.
I agree, most games that have best of threes for most of the tournament do best of 5 finals, and it would make sense here.
I really don't know how to play TCG, so if the crowd goes wild, I just go on with the flow. I don't even know who won at first game if it is Andrew or Igor
It was Andrew from Canada
Moon X Blast Andrew won
Just a question... Is it legal to use World Championship Decks (the re-prints you can buy in stores) in leagues. Like, not official leagues, just local clubs.
it depends on the local club itself.
You have to ask *them*.
DaneeBound k thanks in case i ever find one ever XD
Yes
Idk
Static Dedenne i think you can in local clubs
What's more broken: the 2014 meta or the 2017 meta
ZachJH 2017 was good, it wasn’t broken at all really. Either was 2014

funny to go back and see just how bad the "best" players were. truly terrible gameplay from igor. i think that's part of what made the game so exciting back then, though. bad decks, techs, and gameplay

What happened at 16:10 :O!?
Andrew drew a Plasma Energy, which activates Genesect's Ability, which in turn let him bring up the undamaged Genesect, and KO it with G Booster, leaving the game tied, with Igor having no energy on his side, which put Andrew at a gigantic advantage. He was then able to Shadow Triad for the Plasma Energy again, which was discarded by G Booster's effect, letting him drag out another EX and G Booster it for the KO, completing his incredible comeback.
That shoulds like a song "Solooo Jriachi" (drum sounds) "Solooo Jirachi" (more drums) "Soloooooo" "Solooo Jirachi"
I have a rubbish ex - Lucario x 110 up -_-
I think it's fake
