My thoughts for Lillie's is to have the Clefairy ex paired alongside Teal Mask Ogrepon ex and Area Zero, just as Entei V is trying to do. While Entei V does draw you that extra card which is helpful, the option to play that Lillie's pearl (4 copies) to present a one prize attacker that can easily swing 220+ numbers seems too good to pass up, especially since it will be able to target Dragapult ex easily. It fixes the problem the Entei V Area Zero deck had, which was that it didn't have an advantage over other Big Basic decks (Miraidon ex has Iron Hands ex, Roaring Moon ex and Raging Bolt ex have guaranteed KOs on the Stage 2s). Seeing that your opponent will always be faced with a one prize attacker in the active, it will be difficult for your opponent to finde the Gust or Jamming Tower to deal with it turn after turn.
55:10 Kieran does see some play in certain lists, specifically Gouging Fire runs a copy right now. It's a niche card, but it's definitely viable as a one-of.
Cautiously optimistic about Budew, I'm one of those people who thinks the format's too "fast" right now, and I also never much cared for Zard (I had written a long diatribe about how the "speed" of the format DOES matter, but I'll save my breath--I'm probably wrong anyways :3) Also, hopefully Pokémon prints the heck out of this set, the Jimothies can bite me.
I think Budew is very much like Iron Hands - much scarier on paper than in practice, but still definitely a major factor in the meta going forwards. Also why take one prize with Umbreon when you can hit 280 and take two, 😉
Yeah man it’s getting to those cards that’s the problem. You budew in the attive right away. You can’t play any items to find those cards. So you’re more relying on drawing into the card you need. Which slows down the game a lot. I’ve seen it man. It’s crazy disruptive. Not something impossible to counter. But harder, a lot harder
Anyone who watched the live stream yesterday must admit how annoying and unprofessional it was, for 2 hours they just laughed and tried to connect , thumbs down for yesterday ... Omnipoke can do better

I will try with Teal Mask now. I was planning to play it with Espathra because of N’s Zoroark. 😂
glad you were able to get this video out despite the technical difficulties on stream early on! great analysis as always!

Completely untested out there idea for the gigas could be in metang or baccalibur decks as a single prize tech attacker.
Could you make the card that you're talking about bigger? Quite difficult to read on mobile

i guess you could play larrys professionalism with the revavroom engine.
they did my boy umbreon so dirty.. mid first attack and garbage 2nd attack 😢
They are SO back🤌
Um…couldn’t you just use card abilities that place damage counters around? Soooo budew means nothing lol
@@TheDorkgetreal those sorts of abilities are going to be a big deal!

@Gambit87-rh3vn internet issues were a problem 😅 live content is always going to be less polished but hopefully issues are resolved
@ ... at least we know how good Kenia Nairobi is in christmas time 🦏🦛🦒
