As someone who's been working 3 jobs, 60+ hour weeks, while also getting married in a month, your bit about struggling to make videos hit. I feel that, but am incredibly happy you're pushing through! Favorite person to watch play by far.
Thanks so much Kyle, I really genuinely appreciate your comment. Glad to know I can be at least a few minutes of distraction in the long dark that is life :P
Compare that to my dads 100 hundred.
That was something I was looking for. Thanks and really fun video.
Thank you this video. I just downloaded the game and I was struggling before watching your video. I am still not sure how to make a deck but I am glad I have a place to start now thanks to you. Appreciate you.
I’m glad you found the video useful! Good luck on your journey :)
Thanks for this vid, it's been really helpful as someone that's getting back into playing pokemon tcg!
Thanks Mitch for doing Arcanine deck. Arcanine is awesome and deserves more love in tcg
I love Arcanine, its a shame we never really have a good card for it
Me too. One of my favorite pokemons. It's true. I think this is the best Arcanine ever released. They were always kinda okish, but never a good competitive Arcanine option.
just about to go to sleep when this dropped. The Sableyes>Sleep
100% appreciate the sentement!
You considered running a few EXP Share? Can be good to slap on an Armarouge to conserve energy throughout the game and make it easier to stream attacks. I really like this archetype, hope it gets some love in future sets to compete going forward.
Exp share is definitely a card to consider in a list like this
LETS GOOO!!! Another upload from the man himself
Woooo!
I'm new to Pokemon TCG. I didn't see any Arcanine ex decks on Limitless to take inspiration from (I don't know why I didn't bother searching CZcams, but whatever) so I just took my own experience with TCGs to try and intuit a decent deck on my own. And I've been having fun with it, Arcanine is a favorite Pokemon for me & that card art is great. I didn't really think of Armarouge but I stuck with Charizard for cheaper energy requirements/costs & I added Delphox V as an alternative offensive option to hit the bench as I felt losing 1 energy to the lost zone isn't a big deal when I have Magma Basin.
But what was more interesting to me is I got rid of Bibarel altogether and run 2 Squawkabilly ex (in case 1 is a prize card), 4 Battle Pass VIPs, 2 Nest Ball, 4 Ultra Ball because I WANT the Squawk turn 1 in addition to 4 Professors), 4 Trekking Shoes. My rationale was ideally I would go second then Squawk + Professor + Trekking Shoes + as many balls/Passes as I can on my first turn to deep draw through my deck. I also tested Lumineon as an extra search for Proffessor but it didn't test well, I got stuck with it as the only Basic in my starting hand one too many times so I just have a couple Gift Energys I could attach to a Growlithe to Stoke then die or as a colorless energy on Radiant Charizard, Delphox, or Squawk. In retrospect, this is all probably the consequence of me being a Yu-Gi-Oh! player, big draws just overexcite me. The discards from the core of Squawk+Professor though also set up the grave with fire energy for Magma Basin + Squawkabilly's move could be used turn 1 if I have him active to attach 2 energy & prepare Arcanine turn 2 (so long as I have either an energy or a path to Rare Candy in Charizard in hand).
I'm currently in Scorbunny rank and I'm finally starting to not win as often, but I don't really have the intuition to know what my deck building problems are, might just move on to netdecking some meta threat soon until I'm more experienced. I've definitely already got some ideas from this video though, the Entei V for early game argument makes sense and it definitely looks like a better option than Delphox V against more decks. I also had no clue what Forest Seal Stone does, with all the draw power of my deck that would be really easy to resolve & I could prepare that Charizard early, the biggest problem I've felt so far
Been loving playing this online. I want to re-create it to play live games as well. Do you have any recommendations for updated trainers from Obsidian Flames? Also, I don't really want to pay $25 for forest seal stone, do you have a replacement you'd recommend?
Loved this deck!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This deck has been really fun to start learning the game with, but the ladder at the moment seems filled with Chien Pao which makes it really hard to climb!
I have 2 nintales for the damage counters on other Pokemon. I have two Armourage for the fire off ability. I have 1 entei v for the fleet footed and decent attack. Obviously of have 2 arcanine and 1 radiant charzard. I do decent especially against electric and physic builds
Hey mate. Great video will definitely build this deck. How come the pokemon go charizard is taken out when it halves the energy?
It does, but I'm not sure we need it per se. I like the deck as is, but you can definitely make any changes you need to :)
To be honest when i saw the Lugia I thought it was over. Great Game!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am playing a very similar deck to this and struggling at times with draw support. I am not finding Bibarel particularly useful, is there a good solution? Radiant Graninja or something? 🤔
I don’t see the first card entei v anywhere ? How come
but there is something that remains the same, and to be honest I glad that you still smile and try your best to make the video sounds funny for us to enjoy, and I like that a lot :3 when it was still the online version, you less likely to talk about strategies, which I find that amusing because despite how you see it, this is still a game and we should just enjoy it. Some follow this path like zapdoptcg and tricky gym, others seem kinda into it too much like littledarkfury, I hardly see him crack a smile, and his face expression somehow makes me feel like he is always stressful, and that is one reason why I think game streamers shouldn't have when streaming, just my opinion, no objection :3
I'm glad you enjoy the videos :) glad I can keep smiling for you :)
Howis th Manaphy CRZ-GG 6 used?
Just started playing 2 days ago. I added radisnt greninja. Discard a fire, draw 2 and basen the fire i just discarded.
Not sure if its actually good since im still learning but its seemed strong
I'm back baby. Son is now 3. Just downloaded PTCG live last night
What cards do you replace? I’m on mobile so I can’t see the list😢
Radiant heatran and revavroom are also good options. Especially the heatran. It had the potential to knock out any Pokémon in the game for 3 magma basin turns. And any v star for 2
This is true, both definitely cool inclusions :)
Love this deck, but sadly it doesn't do well with top decks in my experience. Still a fun one to play with moving energy all over the board and taking big KO's.
Yeah it's great fun! I just wish it were that little bit better :)
As I have noticed, lots of players using this deck in PTCGL, and I have wondered if there was an upgrade for this powerful deck. Turns out it is :) Plus full art cards are making it beautiful!
I'm glad you appreciate the full arts :) I think they look incredible!
Are you an influence to full-time
I don’t know if I like those other basic Pokémon better when you can get that Charizard on the field or one energy equals two I don’t know man it’s very very easy to just attach an energy each turn and keep attacking at 2:50 every term with our canine I think I like the Charizard better. But good stuff regardless.
Yeah I can see what you mean, they just give us some other options to mix things up :)
@@TheSableyes but the entei card. I put it in my deck. That was a very needed upgrade. Someone that can actually do pressing damage every turn without a bunch of support and helps you draw
I am new to this chanel&game. Maybe weird Question but how do I get Entei V Crad?
Great question - If you sort by unowned on the deck building screen and search for Entei you should find it :)
So, I goofed. I'm new, I don't know this card game like, at all. I looked up Armarouge and crafted it, but I crafted the wrong one. Coming from Yu-Gi-Oh, it literally did not compute for me that your game would have multiple completely different printings of the same card with identical names and they would all be legal in the same format. Is there a decent alternative energy engine that kind of fits in the same deck space? My first instinct is to go back to Charizard and Charizard ex...
New to the community here, hello 👋
my very first game with this deck ALL 3 of my arcanine were prized, but I won thru deck out LOL
Nicely done!
How many decks do you start with when logging in for the first time
You have a starter deck for each energy type
how do you deal with 300 or higher hp pokemon? just wondering , i play this deck and i struggle a lot against those
Yeah they seem kinda hard to deal with - I’m not sure it’s possible :/
@@TheSableyes Maybe would be good to play Charizard V star and radiant heatran? is there anything else that can hit over 300?
Yugioh player. Want to try Pokemon. I've tried the basic version of this deck that comes with the game. My goal is to play the physical card game... Is this a good deck to build for playing at locals? I do not understand the different formats. I'd like to build a budget deck ($20-$50) that I will be allowed to play casually (in Yugioh you usually have to spend a ton of money to be able to compete, hopefully that's not the case)... Searching online it seems decks like "Hisuian Goodra VSTAR" or "Miraidon EX" - I don't mind a more complex deck, I am not a child and I have experience with Yugioh, I don't want like an easy kids deck, but something simple if powerful is fine, I would prefer something 'current'/popular... Thank you. Can someone please help????
Great deck! Thanks! It really snowballs compared to the original one. Sableye been bugging me though, I'll try swapping to snorlax instead of manaphy
That's completely reasonable :)
Had KO turn 2 w Arcanine on Lugia V for two prizes
Why is the last charizard used as back up incase it gets knocked out?
I believe it is used as a last resort if your opponent has two or fewer prize cards remaining because it will only cost 1 (fire) energy instead of the normal five. Radiant Charizard attack is based on how many prize cards your opponent has taken.
Better run bibarel or revavromm?
I prefer bibarel most of the time :)
I’m new to this game and I was wondering why add Manaphy? I don’t see how it contributes to the deck?
Manaphy stops decks from spreading damage, which can be really bad for this deck
@@TheSableyes I still don’t get it, either way thank you for making the starter deck more viable. Ever since I started using this deck I’ve been winning games… and I was on like a 20 game losing streak 😅
@@yolked1360is ability prevents your opponent from dealing damage to your benched Pokemon. My question is, does he have to be active for this to take effect? I'm assuming not since it isn't explicitly stated.
@@JoshuaTarvin Manaphy doesn't have to be the active
Hello everyone still worth it craft those cards I started today and have 1750 to craft, but just entei costs 1500
The problem with Manaphy is that you need a water energy to use it
You are never attacking with it. It is there to chill on your bench and keep Radiant greninja from sniping your puppies before they evolve.
I need to upgrade my account from the old tcg to this one i guess
It’s coming down to the wire now - ptcgo is gone for ever by the end of June or july
EarlyChamp.
Nice!
What about a deck for new players ?
I started playing yesterday and am already able to craft this deck. use your purple credits you get from daily rewards to buy the battle pass which you should start out with enough already but if you spent them that's what you'll have to do. From here you get plenty of packs and credits to upgrade your starter deck into this deck right here. It just takes a few quest rotations to grind up more cards, I was lucky and had a bunch of codes saved up from opening a lot of packs in the past IRL.
I was wondering, like when some tcg streamers move from the online version to the live one, somehow I feel like the video has been cut short by half the length. I means in the past, you used to show us how each deck would go against the strongest decks like mew vmax, palkia vstar, dialga vstar, girantina vstar ... but now only one deck. Why is that ?
I've changed to only showing one game because my analytic data suggested the 50% of the audience stopped watching after game one. No point in spending sometimes hours more if people tune out regardless :P
The thing that irritates me...Arcanine is supposed to be one of the fastest Pokémon. Was a retreat cost of 3 really the only way to balance this card out??
Arcanine always gets “almost” cards. Like, they’re almost good every time :P
just wanna say your kinda in the way of the deck
hi
Hi :)
Ive got a excelent deck yeah 90% of it was made 4 you i wonder why
Huh? I'm missing context in this comment :P
Yeah context i was just being an asshole because i was loosing my games apologies
There is a card game of pokemon ?
Since when 😅
How do u even get this game to run 😢😢😢
I installed it and then loaded the game up?
@@TheSableyes I installed, waited for it to load and it crashes everytime
why tf u didnt use your vstar tool power on your Entei V??? thats so dumb
Since you're making this video for newer players I'd consider going a bit more in debt on the changes made and explaining why you are taking something out and what card you are putting in in their place. The addition of a Manaphy for instance might be self-explanatory for veterans but since you're not mentioning it or it's ability new players can only scratch their heads at the inclusion of a water pokemon in a fire deck. Same with the trainers, new players might be left wondering why something was taken out or put in.
It's also frankly super annoying that you decided to change almost every card you kept to alt art cards, as it makes it really difficult to see what has actually changed and what is kept. Newbie guides are not the place to flex.. You even changed trainers that you kept like Boss's orders and Professors research to different versions of the same card, leading to maximum confusion as well as players potentially crafting cards that are already in their decks to get your version.
