@Whimsicast Its good in 2009...Beats Flygon typically...I'd play the Weavile version though.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

Hey @jgtournaments you might want to mention that you can't Cyrus for an Item. People in 09 keep using it to grab Luxury Ball and Rare Candy.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Flammable_Bear @Whimsicast Even less the claydol and your own Gengar in mirror so they can't Shadow Room you to death. Protect Tomb from Rosarade, Trapinch from Inviting Trap Claydol, there are a lot of useful situations that pop up.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

Won a small 2010 tournament. Thanks to James for hosting. An Unown G is probably good/needed for mirror. Ran super hot against good opponents.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@The_Big_Jugg Aarons list is fantastic and you certainly can argue that!

Updated Regigias 2010
List: Is mine, but heavily influenced from Noah Sakadjian and Aaron Friedman.

Palkia lets you Pixie lock consistently and helps the Donphan match up.

TSD is not mandatory and Rescue is fine in the spot.

*Dropped Uxie X for 4th Uxie.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Whimsicast Azelf is like 5 or 6 cards down for me...but never bad!

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Pkmn_RubyRetro I'll be honest I think you need the Machamp X as well. Silvestro ran super hot during our series, but it never felt like a favorable match up. You just play 1 Claydol and Unown G it.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Pkmn_RubyRetro I agree Palkia is rough...Flygon Lock you lose to, Flygon Machamp i think you win.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Pkmn_RubyRetro But honestly I feel this is coming across with way more shade then I’m attempting 😅

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Pkmn_RubyRetro Not intended. I’d feel the * if it happened in 09. Point is winning Worlds with a deck that lost in Top 8 didn’t legitimately win worlds. Technically this did. Old school answer I’d argue Igor in 2012. Dude is clearly top tier but that list was super inconsistent.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Pkmn_RubyRetro Yea sadly. I hit so 12/14 rounds so I can’t complain too much.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

Deck: Blaziken/Sablelock 2010
Tier: Tier 1.5
List Credit: List is mine, concept was Jason Chen.

Blaziken is just better due to how popular Dialga is and being able to drag up Claydol.

Argument to gamble on no Azelf and play Honchgrow G.

Would like a VS Seeker

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@jakekgearhart Do you really feel like there is a large skill gap between x-0 and x-2 that deep in a tournament? That seems more like variance to me.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@cooljamz3d Your playing a game with a high amount of variance. There needs to be some allowance for grace with it. Some of my best performances in the game after I stopped put insane pressure on myself to perform. But you do you.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@CarlosPero @C4_TCG @jakekgearhart @Celios_Network @lubyllule Unpopular, but I've always been a fan of larger single elimination top cuts. I really do feel like Top 32 isnt' crazy for an event with this many people.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Whimsicast @FrankieFriday98 yea but you can never 1 shot it, how do you play around the Warp/Heal, and the Remove Lost flips?

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

CurseGar 2010
Tier 1
List Credit: Mine, but heavily influenced by @FrankieFriday98.

2 Curse Gengar have tested slightly better. 4 Judge is good into a lot of the format. 4 Bebe's-4 Roseanne's feels good and needed. 6th Psychic feel really good.

[TheLostZoneTCG @TheLostZone]

@Whimsicast @FrankieFriday98 your attacking with Dusknoir?
