that was an enjoyable video to watch

[@Charmaster04]

Finally looked up what a Megazord is, and now I'm convinced that someone has to make fan art of an Iron Treads, a Future Paradox Zoroark variant and a Future Paradox Yanmega variant forming a Megazord.
Also, I'm curious to know when the next video is coming.

SPOILERS:
I just realized something! You HAVE won with Rayquaza on stream! You were the one playing MagneBoar the first time you featured it, and the deck won that game with a Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND finish too!

That was such a good game!!!

[@holon_phantom]

Thanks!

My inner Prop 15/3 player screamed when Zoroark copied Reshiram's Blue Flare, remembering that Clefable from Jungle can't copy base set Charmeleon's Flamethrower attack, but I checked the compendium, and since Blue Flare doesn't say "If you can't discard a Fire Energy, this attack does nothing" (Contrast this against the Plasma Gale attack of Lugia EX from Plasma Storm), Zoroark can copy it.

[@holon_phantom]

Yup, zoroark was specifically used to counter reshiram and zekrom since it can ohko them with DCE and pluspower

[@Charmaster04]

@@holon_phantom This deck seems to rely on PlusPower to OHKO a lot of things!

​@@Charmaster04130 was the staple hp at the time, which just puts it out of range of most attacks. Magnezone could get around this 2 turn hard lock at the cost of lost zoning some of your energy, but almost every other pokemon needed a plus power to 1 hko an active.
And yeah, zoroark was a counter to almost everything in the format.

[@Charmaster04]

@@rjbourgeois5490 And you don't exactly want to 2HKO something that will do the damage you did to it plus twenty for as little as a single Double Colorless Energy the next turn.

[@Charmaster04]

Wait, what happened to the M Manectric EX versus Landorus EX video? I saw a notification saying it premiered, but it has been deleted since then.

[@holon_phantom]

Sorry there was a problem with that video and had to be taken down

[@Charmaster04]

@@holon_phantom Will there be another version when the problem is fixed? Or was it a more extreme problem?

[@holon_phantom]

@Charmaster04 we'll try to fix the issue and re-post, but no timeline on that yet
