@TyloVortex Played you twice, hand control was crazy, if I was forced to play pult it would be this version, it’s so go good and different than what everyone else is doing
English

Got 3rd at Doom last night using my own Hand control strategy. Really love this deck and honestly think it’s better than people give it credit for.

All hail Slowking. Arceus save Slowking. I'm just honestly shocked that THREE of them made cut this week. So, we will probably not see it here again. Or we will see five. Dunno, just in shock.

@Sleepycat_TCG @Senor_Doom Thank you! Dude I thought I was cooked when I ran into the only pult in top 8 playing Shaymin lol i was like “it would be my luck to avoid zam but get the only pult playing Shaymin”
English

1st of 289 in @Senor_Doom tournament last night. The new lists going around are a turbo build of the deck, I’ve stuck with my way of playing it which is to go second and budew.

@Senor_Doom also I think I’ve won doom before with lugia, not sure I can’t remember but the same way I’ve been stubborn with slowking and just playing that exclusively is the same way I was with lugia lol I was the lugia guy back then
English

Guess I reached Arceus too quickly because ever since getting there I’ve beaten the same guy 3 times in a row and now it won’t match me up with anyone 😭 yall hurry the hell up! #playpokemon #ptcglive #pokemon

English

@Straylo2 Yes they usually only run 2, or hit with conk and finish off with trifrost
English

@Straylo2 I wouldn’t even know where to start bro lol never done anything like that
English

@iCupboard92 Sure you got discord? I’m under the same name @…I will say though, there isn’t enough bench space for an owel build, I promise you you will almost always wish you had another poke or natu on the bench instead, specially against decks that target the bench
English

@r2d2REC Hey hey! Congratulations with such good accomplishments on Slowking! I am trying to make it work with Dawn and owls. Can we perhaps join heads to see whether we can come up with a list? :D
English

@OleTimeHardball Gotta be either Barry bonds or David Ortiz..big papi had had some success against Mariano and was a clutch as anybody
English

@MatthewBerryTMR I need Achane, metcalf and Waller to give me 42 points in a half PPR league or my kids won’t have a decent Christmas 💔
English

Did you face TLaw? ARSB? Pitts or McBride? Guessing you need a #MondayNightMiracle. So put it into the universe & manifest it happening. Thx to Gibbs/Henry doing nothing I need 40 from Achane to make final 3 in a Guillotine League 🤦♂️. So what do YOU need? #MondayNightMiracle
English

@Straylo2 No, the 60 is so tight there isn’t any room for anything extra, I’ve got a million things I want to tech for it but there is no space…also absol has been dying down a bit…run haxorus, if the run mist then try frost the mega and finish them off with conk
English

@ZachLesagePTCG Thank you for everything, I started playing Pokémon TCG when silver tempest came out, I had no idea what I was doing, but I remember your tournaments were huge for getting practice in before I started playing in IRL, it’s rare that I miss a late night…thank you for everything ❤️

A message about Late Night Events going forward...
Late Night Events started 4-5 years ago as a way for players to play in events when IRL events took a pause in the pandemic. The events grew into something I could have never imagined, and we hit over 500 players per week nowadays. I appreciate each and every single player, staff member, sponsor, and those who use these events to keep up with the metagame.
Pokemon TCG events have changed both IRL and online. IRL events are bigger than ever, and many areas (including where I live in Montreal) have locals Monday through Friday with CP events every weekend. Online events have also popped off with @Senor_Doom's TOD series offering an amazing weekly event and @SmartTCG offering cash events that have exploded his series into a whole new level. There are countless other organizers and series that offer so much for this community that is so so so awesome.
I've changed a lot since the start of Late Night events too. I've grown up a lot since the pandemic - I'm in my 30s, I'm a Poke-dad now, I'm married to @M_LesagePTCG, and so much more. It is tough for me to keep up with this event, and there are so many other opportunities that I don't see a downside of me stepping back.
I'm sure many of you have read in between the lines of this message and realized where this is heading. Late Night 246 is going to be the last regularly scheduled Late Night event for a while. I might look into other opportunities for someone to run them if we get a chance, but I fully realize that I can't keep up with the series right now.
A huge shoutout goes to @snoopy369, @TheRealMWDC, and @PonytaTTV for helping these events run smoothly over the past few seasons. Y'all are the real goats for real for real!
What does this mean going forward? Honestly, I'm not too sure. The series could continue on in some way or another, but I don't have a concrete plan right now. I just know it can't continue on as a weekly event (at least with me running it). I don't want to see the series die, but I also feel it has more than served its purpose for the community, and there are so many events to choose from. Ideally I would like to run some tournaments in the future, just not a weekly special at this time. That might change, but for now, Late Night 246 is the last weekly Late Night. I appreciate all of you <3

@flatlinetf2 @pokestatstcg @Senor_Doom Hey I ran the slowking, conk knocks out most relevant basics, I’d rather run the anihhalpe to help with big evolution pokemon that aren’t Tera
English

@pokestatstcg @Senor_Doom 1-1 revavroom in slowking with no tirtouga or haxorus is wiling
English

Grimmsnarl took the win in the latest Tournament of @Senor_Doom, winning every round in the event, beating Dragapult in the finals. A Slowking deck made top cut in this event as well.

@markmaccccc The crayon deck was a tough match up till I put in clefable
English

@r2d2REC Fellow Slowking enjoyer here. Been checking out your recent decklists, and I've got a question. Why do you run Clefable? And what do you think of Zeraora?
English

@markmaccccc Clefable helps with the prize race against decks like Garde and pult specially if they run Shaymin, clefable eats up budews and damaged scream tails and driftloons…zeraora still can’t hit Teras so you are just hoping to hit things like fez, also clefable helps with joltik too
