Instead of deck boxes, playmats, etc, can vgc players get stuff like notebooks, plushies, maybe download codes for training items like mints and bottle caps could be cool. I’ve got piles of tcg stuff I’m never gonna use and I’m sure a lot of other players feel the same way.

Fun Day 2 Utrecht facts. There are more Alolan Ninetales than there are Amoonguss Flutter Mane only has roughly 38% usage, while Raging Bolt has soared to above 50% If I didn't miscount, Incineroar has claimed the #1 Spot back

Just so y'all know, I came off my worst regional performance ever in Pittsburg to my best in Peoria back to back. I think it goes without saying but don't let a performance make you think you can't succeed because you can always bounce back.

I wanted to lock in Dragon Tera Gambit but the change was last minute and couldn’t get one in time so I locked in dark cause it was the only one I had. Dark Tera didn’t come up rly and I think dragon would’ve saved me a lot more. I have now learned to lock my team not last second

Day 2 needs to be made 16 slots. Day 1 Worlds being 300 and day 2 being 1100 is ridiculous. It would greatly incentivize people to not just stop at 300 cause I know a lot players dipped as soon as they hit that.

@the_one_gio That’s not rly the point tho. That’s like if the inverse happened and tcg players got switch cases, and they were told it was good cause they could sell them. Why not be packs instead of switch cases? It’s overall about getting prizing that we could use so we don’t HAVE to sell

@komvgc Easily the best ones are the ones that are a mix of both. Flutter becoming a fairy means it now resists the many dark moves of the format while increasing its damage, and kingambit loses a lot of common weakness with Tera dark too. Purely defensive feels lackluster to me imo.

We need Top 16 or x-3 cut,at least for 6 round day 2. 6 round day 2 for events as large as euic means that in order for a 7-2 to make cut, they basically have to go undefeated, which is brutal. 7/8 of the players who made top 8 went into day 2 as 8-1s or better for reference
