Guess I'll do the #promosky thing.
Looking for mutuals that are interested in a wide variety of topics:
Video Games
🔥 Final Fantasy
🔥 Suikoden
🔥 Trackmania
🔥 Smash Bros
🔥 Kingdom Hearts
🔥 Mario
🔥 Zelda
🔥 Elder Scrolls
Sports
🔥 Golden State Warriors
🔥 Chicago White Sox
That's a good start.

Been playing MTG again and dove back into Modern.
Been tweaking Jund Hollow One and it’s been a blast!
It’s reasonable to be greedy with the mana base, since you are always looting and fetching for lands. Having the Stomping Grounds allows access to more flexibility in the sideboard.

Stopped playing Pokemon TCG Pocket for the most part.
Couldn’t get over the $23 real dollars for a promo.
Couldn’t get over the lack of product for the monthly subscription.
“Gotta catch ‘em all” yeah buddy better open your wallet.
If I use this account it will be for MTG from now on.

Deck #36: From The Heavens
Dragonite has been around, but there are new options as of late.
Manaphy coupled with Dawn can force fast Draco Meteor, especially with consistency with PokeComm.
Fan Rotom can remove a target, making Draco Meteor more consistent!

Deck #35: Ape Escape
Pesky Leafeon / Irida or Dialga decks pissing you off?
One-shot them with Flare Blitz!
Infernape EX has no retreat cost and can hide behind Weezing until you Koga it away, nuke, and reset. Usually only needs 2 attacks to win!

Deck #34: Nurture Nature
With only 3 basics and 4 evolutions, Pokemon Communication is essential.
Having multiple possible options for passive abilities on your Eeveelutions gives the deck several lines.
Just play to your opponent’s weaknesses.

Sudowoodo is the new Farfetch’d (go Team Venture!) and shreds the hyper-aggressive all-EX decks. Lucario lets Sudowoodo and Aerodactyl punch VERY hard.

Deck #32 - Metalflies
Brewing with A2 is more complicated, but lots of fun options.
Try loading up your Yanmega with Dialga early and launching for 120-130!
Or just let Melmetal do his thing if you have the draw.

Hey all, regarding Chicagoland Summit.
We are still working diligently on the compendium re-launch and are awaiting details to be able to launch it properly.
Sorry for any delays to this point. I promise it will be worth it for the revamp.
Should be ready soon. Stay tuned!

Deck #31 - Primeval Leeks
I’m so happy. My favorite Pokemon is very viable again with Leek Slap doing 40 on turn one (50 with Giovanni) and it beats a lot of things.
Hitmonlee is Magikarp insurance, Marshadow is aggro insurance, the deck is very cohesive.
Enact PRIMEVAL LAW!

Not competing in Smash currently (hand injury), so I’ve spent two weeks getting back into the MTG grind.
Esper Aggro feels insane. Hopeless Nightmare is a card I would have personally designed.
My list has some tech in it, all of which has performed very well. Back into Top 1500 again! 💪

Deck #30 - BOYFRIEND
Use the Chatot mimic to dump a bunch of random cards to improve the statistics of always having Nidoqueen and Nidoking.
Nidoqueen does all the work staying at home with the kids while Nidoking goes out and parties.

Deck #29 - Vermilion City Gym
Most decks now need to have a plan that either withstands a 140 damage attack or can deal 140+ in one attack.
This goes the 2nd route.
Get damage early with Pikachu EX and Electrode and be ready to load up Raichu in a pinch. ⚡️
