Per un totale casual come me, l’accessibilità di champions è la svolta.
Questo il team che usato da ultra a master. Team totalmente standard ma gioco Encore su Delphox al posto di sub.
L’MVP è la volpe
@ZamboniEmanuele Ho rinunciato al mio unico Walking Wake per averlo. Anche delphoxite l’ho ottenuta scambiando un delphox da ZA (anni su PoGo a catturare shiny ha aiutato)

You've probably seen pics of Spider-man boxes sitting on shelves or flash sales trying to dump them on the cheap, but Wizards has said the set is a success. How can the same set be a smashing success and a huge flop? Let's talk about how the Magic market actually works.
Local game stores and other vendors have to place their orders for the set early (you know those super early spoilers we get every set, Wizards has said they are so vendors can figure out what to order, and vendors order shortly thereafter, months before the set release or is fully previewed).
As a result, game stores have to order based on how well they *think* the set will sell, basically making an educated guess. They order from distributors, who get the boxes from Wizards. As a result, the money for these boxes is in Wizards pocket months before the set even releases and it's locked in no matter how many boxes the game stores actually sell.
With a set like Spider-man, vendors ordered a lot of boxes because, well, Spider-man is iconic, Marvel is huge, and other sets were selling well. As a result, the set made Wizards a ton of money, but what we are seeing now - prices dropping, flash sales, overstocked shelves - is vendors struggling to sell the product to players.
Basically, Spider-man was a huge success for Wizards before they even spoiled the cards. Even if literally the entire Magic community refused to buy Spider-man, it wouldn't have an immediate impact on Wizards bottom line because they already got paid for all the boxes, it's the game stores and distributors left holding the bag.
However, this can hurt Wizards in the long run, because when it comes time for vendors to order Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or Marvel Legends they might not order as much after getting stuck with a bunch of Spider-man they couldn't sell. Basically, any negative impact wouldn't be reflected in Wizards bottom line from Spider-man (or any set, they all work the same) until future sets.
And that's how the same set can be both a smashing success and a huge flop, at least in the short term.
Many of you want me to be an anti-Universes Beyond, anti-Commander guy. But all I really want is simple: competitive play with Hall of Fame back, Pro Points back, and GPs back. Easy!
The main point though is accessibility - the biggest uphill battle for competitive Pokemon has always been the time it takes to get Pokemon in game. Being able to instantaneously train a Pokemon competitively, and to do it on your phone, means anyone who wants can start playing
It's hilarious to see people buying out cards based on combos with the backside of Avatar Aang when we don't even know how to flip it, what earthbend, firebend and airbend are and the set doesn't even release until the end of November
“Grok” e “Pedullà”
Perché sta succedendo una cosa talmente inspiegabile che forse solo chiedendo a Grok stessa potremmo riuscire ad enuclearla come si deve.
@grok puoi spiegarci questo scambio di battute? Però non bestemmiare di nuovo, grazie
The price of collector booster boxes doesn't really matter. Fancy versions being expensive is fine and arguably even good for the game. On the other hand, Final Fantasy play boosters boxes being $220 ($100+ more than Dragonstorm or Aetherdrift) is a huge issue.
