@FishNugget4 Correct!

@PTCGPuzzles nest ball for ursaluna jet to the active tower pass

Puzzle #11 Setup puzzle today. Decklist is my NAIC list (very relevant) which I will link in the comments below. This theme was a major focus of my NAIC deckbuilding.

@H04Ms This is close, but you can do even better!

@TonyChenTCG It's absolutely not deterministic, but there is an important idea here that shifts your win percentage significantly. It's just planning your first turn. You are going first, have not drawn for turn.

@PTCGPuzzles I’m assuming we’re T1 going first, not sure if this puzzle can be “solved” without knowing what’s our DFT

@Odin_Mk2 Unfortunately, Boss into Pokestop + single prizer/shred will make your life miserable!

@PTCGPuzzles Play Collapse and Mimikyu and make their life miserable?

Not leaking strats before NAIC, so pretty elementary puzzle today. Anyone who says Bolt has a chance vs Gardy is trippin. Convert the position. Opponent list unknown, you have standard gardy options at disposal.

@BlahTCG I agree, I think this is the best line if we draw accordingly.

@PTCGPuzzles I don’t even think Stamp here is important. Ideally you Counter Catcher an Ogerpon, use Munkidori, then Drifloon for 180 for KO. Save tool off Arven for later, they play no hand disruption. This plays around a possible Jamming Tower/Vacuum.

@AdamDaBitchi I've added it to the doc linked to my pinned tweet!

@PTCGPuzzles Can you reveal the best line?

Puzzle #10 Very realistic one today. No key resources in opp discard, potential cards like Eri must enter our calculation. Our list is Dean's from Indy. Tricky spot, was not confident in my evaluation. But I have consulted Dean himself for the best line!

If people were misled into thinking the Eri was 100%, I apologize. Credit to @NicholasMoffit2 and @FishNugget4 who found what I believe to be the next best line.

Updated Solution doc. Line Dean went with and I subscribe to is accepting the loss to Eri. Push for Boss this turn, and prepare for the hit off Iono. Other lines suggested were cool and close in estimated win percentage, but I still felt Dean's was the best.

@GURT0512 You shouldn't assume anything. You need to make a judgement call on the probability of what the opponent finds next turn.

@PTCGPuzzles Are we to assume the opponent always has the necessary resources to finish out a turn?

@PapaiNoelSQP PTCGsim.online

@PTCGPuzzles Wich site/app do u use to make the puzzles?

@MaddoxTCG There is a guarantee for this one. However, I encourage you to practice asking that question of yourself, and not of me. Solutions are in the doc pinned to my profile.

@PTCGPuzzles Is there a way to guarantee it? Or just maximizing odds?

Puzzle #9 Not the most difficult, but I'm very happy with the uniqueness and relevance of this puzzle. How do we maximize the odds of double gust?

@sheiko_77 You got it!

@PTCGPuzzles Sorry rod for 2

As usual, skipping this week for Indy. Good luck to my fellow competitors!

@Lucid_Moves This is it! Well done!

Puzzle #8 CPAO 🥶. Nothing relevant is prized, standard CPAO list. As in a real game you won’t know if your solution is the best possible - it won’t be 100% and I won’t tell you the target number. Good luck!
