The Cold, Grimm Future — Why Marnie’s Grimmsnarl ex is the Newest Meta Deck
- Thread starter PMJ
- Start date
Didn't you insist it would be straight up overpowered though? It's not even really being used like Charizard was.
That is just an objective fact. Anything that's trying to make a splash in today's meta has to be miles better than the regular chaff you can pull out of the pack.
Picnic Basket might start seeing play now to counter the two big spread decks in town (one of which makes extensive use of Munkidori) and to disrupt Gardevoir players’ game plans.
It plays completely differently to zard lmao. The only similarity is that it’s a self-accelerating stage 2
If you're tired of saying it then you can just stop saying it - Nobody is forcing you to comment lmfao
Nah, I'd rather see the game improve.
Ah yes, because complaining about a pretty balanced card on a forum will totally lead to sweeping changes in the game’s design
lmao
It’s won a few city leagues and got 6th at a champions league. While it’s pretty fast at setting up, and spread has great support, i’ve found it pretty weak to hand disruption and bad lategame draws, due to its inability to run stuff like fez. Also, picnic basket really sets it back. Seems pretty balanced to me
And your way of doing this is whining on a fan forum...? Okay hun, it's your delusion so you get to pick the soundtrack I guess
That's an incredible logical leap, but nobody was accusing you of reading comprehension.
With... B&W? Really?
Nobody's forcing people to angrily reply to my messages with things that are patently false and, as you can see, I am avoiding repeating the same discussion for the xth time.
But if you're worried about the few people left that care about the actual game, you would be more concerned with the fact this is the only discussion in a long time that that doesn't revolve around people not even having access to new cards.
Nobody here has said anything that is "patently false". They've disagreed with your opinion. There is a huge difference in those things. People here react angrily to you because you treat your opinions like some kind of objective fact and are smugly condescending to everyone else. If you actually tried to have a discussion, instead of just talking about how "right" you are all time, maybe we'd actually get somewhere more productive.
Marnie's Grimmsnarl isn't some overwhelmingly busted card, it's had a few good results at a few events. That's really it. Clearly you aren't avoiding the same discussion because you come into every thread pretending to be some kind of PTCG Nostradamus, rewalking the same tired opinions we've all had to hear over and over again that simply don't line up with what the rest of us see in reality. If M's Grimmsnarl was such a busted card it would be a tier 0 format with only this deck but it's not.
Yeah, if you ignore the constant articles involving deck profiles and all the discussion surrounding card viability on spoiler threads then this is the "only" discussion for a long time.
Keep in mind, you were the first to come into this thread to reply in a smarky & condescending way. Which begs the queston, why?
It's an interesting question with interesting answers, touching on how players are often unable, and in fact get angry when asked to consider viewpoints other than their own. But it's not a discussion worth having, because there is no outcome of it that's positive.
I don't respond snarkily to people unless they do so first. I don't comment much anyway, since I've lost interest in most of the game. I've realized most of topics I like to cover touch on systematic issues, something that people find hard to conceptualize, and therefore simply end with people talking about their personal perception.
I feel somewhat vindicated that Pocket - currently the second most-profitable app in the world - still has the majority of its players avoid the actual "gameplay" part, because it follows the same unappealing balance principles. That the amount of discussions here are gradually dwindling down, unless they touch upon scalping or collecting. That many Leagues I know of have issues inviting new players, and how the majority of these remaining players belong to a single hypercompetitive psychographic type. None of this makes me happy, but it's been an obvious outcome, inevitable regardless of how one wants to plug their ears.
So no, I am not planning on having any of these discussions again, and you are the one that chooses who you reply to.

>poison counters
>suggests a petition to TPCi to get it into ptcgl on account of how much better it is compared to modern card design
>“nobody understands me because my brain is so huge”
Ok buddy. I think grimmsnarl is average. inoffensive card design comparatively. Its fine if you disagree.
I literally told him that the issue wasn't his opinions - It was his attitude and he claimed that I "get angry when asked to consider viewpoints other than my own"
But hey, nobody was accusing him of reading comprehension.
I'll take "Actual Delusions of a Malfunctioning Mind" for $500, Bob.
It was never my goal to make anyone feel inferior or stupid. If you feel overwhelmed by these feelings, this is entirely on you.
