In a desperate attempt to come up with a somewhat relevent topic to write about before the release of Call of Legends, I went deep into the tank. Unfortunately, I still came up empty. All of the big decks have been beaten into the ground, and any further attempt at “innovation” is wasted when it could be just as easily thrown out when we finally see what cards make the list of the next set (Call of Legends).
Even debating proper builds of a Lost World deck would be better suited for when the set is actually released and we know exactly what we have to work with.
So instead of trying to write a redundant article about an established archetype, or write some detailed informative guide about some tier 2 at best rogue deck that isn’t going to hold up against the established decks regardless of how much we want them to, I’m going to try something that we’ve discussed doing for awhile now, but I don’t believe anyone ever actually pulled the trigger on.
I’m going to write out a full play by play of a match I played, complete with move by move thought analysis of what was going through my head alongside every single move and debate I made.
Clearly I’m going to go with the same deck I’ve been preaching for awhile now, and that is LuxChomp. As much as I’d love to go in depth over how to play Turbo Shaymin, I figure it would be a much better investment for you as a reader to “see” or “read” or whatever the correct term would be, me playing the deck I both know best, and the deck I feel would be the best to field at any given event. First, I’ll start off with my current list:
