  • Snorlax aims to trap non-attacking Pokemon and prevent the opponent from playing the game. Thanks to Paradox Rift, this strategy is more viable than ever! Yay?

    I actually played against this deck the other day with chien pao. Basically as long as you only put down via le attackers and not put a support Pokemon down that can't attack the deck is pretty simple to beat. Gameplay might be boring but it helps learn how these decks work.

    Or just sideboard any Pokemon that can help save attacks from either EX , V or just other normal pokemon in general cuz if you run a card that protects only from certain kind then others could just do the damage right?

  • @InThirdPerson
    @InThirdPerson  Před 7 měsíci

    I may have been able to bench a Mimikyu preemptively in the 2nd match to stall for time but they could have just as easily focused on Iron Valiant and I’d still be toast. There was definitely a chance for me to recover but the matchup on paper is awful with Iron Valiant being able to drop damage counters and having a ton of switch cards. Not to mention Lost City. Gg!

    Why have I reached the 24:30 mark in this video? Because I enjoy slow violence in PTCGL (as much as swift KOs), and this is what Snorlax stall deck is. I am in no mental state to navigate this anytime soon, but this and that one build of Venomoth quasi-stall by Andrew Mahone of Tricky Gym is just a stellar experience to watch.

    I've found that it's only effective in the higher ladder ranks. People either play upwards of 12 switch cards, or, they use an ability to switch in and out... like, it's actually crazy just how bad some of these decks are, yet, they can beat this 'meta' stall deck with relative ease.

      Certainly iron Valiant Entei, or any deck that can damage you even if you have an active pokémon trapped. Most decks now don't play many switch cards though, so don't worry too much about it.

    I've recently got into Pokemon TCG and TCG live, how are you getting full decks of cards that you want?

    • @InThirdPerson
      @InThirdPerson  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Welcome to the Pokemon TCG!
      While the economy in Live is certainly better than what we had before on PTCGO, especially since the game is pretty generous with giving players strong decks for free with the battle pass. However, having enough credits to build what you want is certainly a struggle.
      As a new player, definitely focus on unlocking the free decks on the battle pass. Use your gems to unlock the premium pass because the rewards are worth it. From there, use your gems to buy the Shadow Rider Calyrex League Battle Deck repeatedly. Every purchase after the 2nd should get you a few thousand gems each time.
      If you have money or already have play set of Celebrations cards, the most efficient way to build up credits is to get 4-of-a-kind of all the Celebrations cards so that you get a lot of credit for each pack you open. Celebrations packs/codes are so sought after because the set is the easiest to complete (50 cards in the set) and every card is a rare or above, making it the best for boosting. However, Celebrations codes are no longer cheap as this strategy is well known and you’re gonna have to open up a bunch of packs first before the credits really start rolling in.

  • @swrodgon
    @swrodgon Před 7 měsíci

    Definitely an annoying deck to play against meta. For example chien-pao needs to burn their cross receivers to get out (though I guess you could just flip coins with bibarrel), and most decks even then outside of lost box and iron valiant might run 2-3 “switch” effect cards at best, and without a more general way to recover items outside of like darkrai vstar, it gets annoying fast.

  • @hickknight
    @hickknight Před 7 měsíci

    I watched it to get an idea of how the deck plays. It sure looks annoying, but it feels like it is winning because it isn't a known quantity.

    • @InThirdPerson
      @InThirdPerson  Před 7 měsíci +1

      I don't think it's because it isn't a known quantity. Snorlax Stall actually existed as a strong deck archetype years ago [2013 bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Snorlax_(Plasma_Storm_101)] and as far as I know, is still a strong deck in Expanded. However, its use in Standard competitive play in 2023 has been niche at best and teching specifically for Snorlax isn't seen as being worth it for most players, as the techs required to beat Snorlax make most decks worse against pretty much every other deck in the format.
      However, with strong showings in online tournaments and IRL events (including today's win at Gdansk Regionals), the community really needs to start thinking about how seriously it wants to tech for Snorlax.

    my klawf deck destroys this deck, ran into 2 of them on the TCGlive, was a easy win.

    • @InThirdPerson
      @InThirdPerson  Před 7 měsíci

      Klawf has some inherent advantages against Snorlax, such as being able to hit Snorlax and Rotom for weakness, as well as having a few switch cards handy. Other meta decks as currently built have a much tougher time against Snorlax and will likely need to add techs to fix that match-up. Some meta decks that really struggle against Snorlax include Gardevoir, Charizard, and Chien-Pao. play.limitlesstcg.com/decks/snorlax-stall/matchups?format=standard&rotation=2023&set=PAR
      However, Snorlax can still beat Klawf if it can successfully trap a support Pokemon in the active. There’s not a lot of online tournament data to go off of at the moment, but Snorlax still wins or at least comes to a draw a good amount if the time vs Klawf: play.limitlesstcg.com/decks/klawf-electrode/matchups?format=standard&rotation=2023&set=PAR
