That last deck with Mewtwo Vunion looks sick!

[@jamesctcg]

It does for sure!

[@chrisreece4474]

The problem with the v-union in general has been consistency ive seen a few people give it a try and it suffers from being too slow in the format. Unfortunately lugia and lost box are still gonna be around, lugia just changes to the T tar single strike build which punishes mewtwo super bad for being too slow.

[@jans.fitness1223]

What are your thoughts on lost box post rotation, and which archetype do you think will adjust best to the new format?

[@jamesctcg]

Lost box looks like it’s set to be the bdif based on Japan/Thailand results. Will do a video on it later

[@andressanabria912]

What are your thoughts on Wyrdeer V as an attacker for this deck?

[@jamesctcg]

Seems ok but only slightly more damage than zacian doesn’t really help, not having to put damage on it is cool though

[@christianlamb]

Any thoughts on the RS Urshifu Inteleon Vmax deck. Seems like it has good Match-up against lost box and this deck.

[@jamesctcg]

Idk how good it’s matchup into this deck will be, but gardevoir defo has tools especially because it can ohko urshifu/inteleon vmax. but early on it seems like it also has issues with mew, consistency and maybe Giratina? Will be a playable deck for sure but personally I would be surprised if it was very good.

[@Enhanced94]

Which one you suggest for ladder climbing in low tiers?

[@jamesctcg]

Probably just as straight forward as possible, so maybe the one with 2 Zacian V

[@ricardocrispin1776]

What stadium do you think fits the deck the best?

[@jamesctcg]

Mesogoza prolly, hard to tell yet how good temple is but maybe that as well

[@jr_fishing9287]

im not sold on the cresselia. been testing out alot of different builds. I want to try the jelly

[@jamesctcg]

Yeah the lost box matchup will be the most interesting, hard to tell yet what the best strat against it for gardevoir will be

[@MrWessiide]

Starmie V likely to make big comeback in Scarlett and Violet meta

[@jamesctcg]

I am defo interested to see if urshi/palk shows up with starmie for this matchup

[@beyond_functiongaming1559]

I’m so glad I got all my grade exs already

[@golbogthedoom912]

Do you think Gardevior ex would work with Mewtwo Vstar? They both need to evolve, but Mewtwo just seems perfect and its vstar power is pretty sick

[@jamesctcg]

Yeah I can see it, might be too much board space though

[@christopherkuehn5847]

I hate to be this guy, but what do you think is one of the more better Gardevoir ex decks. I know it depends on your play style. My play style is fast and hard hitting.

[@jamesctcg]

Probably just the more streamlined version for you then

[@artictheiceguy]

I feel like so many na players are going to play klefki in mirididion and gardevoir which isn’t correct because things like Tina v first attacks makes it bad plus you don’t need klefki to beat lost box and Tina that’s why Japan players don’t play klefki

[@jamesctcg]

Yeah we will see what happens, klefki will be one of the more interesting points at the beginning of the format though

[@jaxn7540]

I think Klefki seems really strong when combined with a strafe attacker so you can take prizes while buying turns from certain decks. Miraidon has one built in with Regieleki, but Gardevoir has to commit space to either Mew or Hatterene. Regardless it will probably be overplayed
