Mewtwo, Mew, and Shedinja — Mewtwo & Mew-GX Revamped

I dislike the original “M3” name given to Mewtwo and Mew-GX decks by many following Worlds. However, with the addition of Shedinja you get to give your opponent three of them as attackers; so the name is much more fitting now!

Shedinja was introduced by Tord Reklev in his Mewtwo and Mew-GX deck at Cologne Regionals. Shedinja is a great idea because it automatically gives you an edge in almost every matchup by allowing you to attack with three Mewtwo and Mew-GX without your opponent winning the game. This new look at the deck is interesting and I expect it to compete with the rest of the metagame moving forward.

In this article you can expect to learn all about this new variation of the popular Mewtwo and Mew-GX archetype and some other information on the slightly modified, more traditional Mewtwo and Mew-GX deck that Azul Garcia Griego and I played for Atlantic City Regionals! Mewtwo and Mew-GX is my favorite deck despite my first poor performance with it at a Regionals; it’s so strong and has more options than anything else.
