- After this weekend’s events, it’s genuinely unbelievable that this clip made the Closing Ceremony montage. TPCi took everything from Ian, but when Isaiah does it, it’s a highlight of the weekend?!? Make it make sense.
00:00 - 7-1-4 at Sac with Regis! This deck is broken and I wish I could’ve taken it further. Finally cracked the engine with Cipher. Shoutout to @ICheville for helping me build the list and Joel Stroeve for not bailing on the deck like everyone else. Better Together! 🪨🧊🔩⚡️🐲🌎🐭🥷
- Fun math question: you have 10 cards in your deck, one of which is Boss. You need it to win. You have access to one Teal Dance and Flip the Script. Your deck may have thinning cards (and targets for them), but no other ways to find Boss. Which do you use first - Ogerpon or Fez?
- Here’s my list for Operation: Desert Storm (Arceus/Beedrill/Sandaconda) that I took to 9th place at Salt Lake this weekend! I wish I didn’t have the worst resistance of 10/2/2s and could’ve played in top 8, but I had a blast playing. No format is too stale for some fun! #SMCWIN
- The answer is quite interesting! Long story short, using Fez first is usually better than Ogerpon, as the chance to draw thinning cards slightly outweighs the chance of drawing targets. Many of you were right to observe that it depends on thinning cards! More details below:

This is a unique cube where each player is dealt a "Quest" - a powerful effect or alternate win condition they may build their deck around. In this thread, I'll detail the 8 decks and quests from the first run!
- Finished 5-3-1 today with 🇹🇩 (Zard/Intel/Vikavolt) after starting 5-1. Hit some horrible variance in rounds 7 and 8 to end the event, but still had a great time playing this! My stream game was a great showcase of how the deck works and I don’t think I’d change a card! 80/500
- I got Top 8 at Toronto Regionals this weekend playing Articuno/Inteleon! Shoutout to all the fellow Gelatinous Gentlemen who played the deck and especially @ICheville for yet another idea of his I took to cut. This deck is a ton of fun and I’m so happy I played it.
- Late post, but went 7-3-2 at Vancouver for 128 with Dragapult! Played the Cornerstone and Luminous for Gholdengo. Overall it feels great into everything except Lugia and Archaludon, which were my losses. I have 460 majors points now, so it's time to lock in at League Cups lol.
- Top 8 in Vancouver with Miraidon! Deck was insane and I enjoyed gambling on Generators for a change. Future Booster is such a flexible tech and I’m happy I had it. Shoutout to the @Snacktiago house for hosting me; I’ll be back in Orlando with something new! +100cp +$3k, 467/600
- 7-1-1 into day 2 with the Sandman himself. I will win the tournament tomorrow.
- I hope we see swift action from @playpokemon to fix this system. An easy change would be forcing the 9th Day 1 round prior to the 4th Day 2 round, but winning every game on Day 2 to miss cut is not ok. The keys are in your hand, please fix this NOW, not next year!
