Grimmsnarl is better in this format than all the tier lists are ranking it, and I feel like the main reason for that is that (nearly) everyone is building it wrong. If I make it to Utrecht in 3 weeks I'll quote this after I make asym again 🫡

Have you ever thought about the Pokémon definition of a “poacher”? It's basically just a dystopian corporate monopoly. In the lore, you are branded a poacher simply for using nets, traps, or cages instead of a Poké Ball. The entire system is a massive "Big Brother" compliance checkpoint: • The Tech Monopoly: The law basically mandates that you must use patented corporate technology to legally interact with wildlife. • The Global Registry: The real crime isn't the catch itself—it is dodging the database. Poké Balls automatically tag every capture to a centralized Trainer ID grid. Catching a Pokémon with a net keeps it completely untraceable and off the books. • The Safari Loophole: People claim poachers are criminals because they over-hunt, but Ash caught an entire herd of 30 Tauros in a single afternoon. Because he paid a corporate entrance fee and used officially licensed Safari Balls, it was perfectly legal. The Pokémon League just wants absolute regulatory control over a heavily monetized digital capture grid.

I love Yu-Gi-Oh. But, I miss Yu-Gi-Oh. I miss the super edgy anime, where the protagonist was going to die horribly unless they could justify destroying the moon to drain the tide. And you sit back and go "damn... Why didn't I think of that?!" Now there is no edgy anime. More than that, I miss a card game that was simple. I would activate my trap card and my opponent would go "No!" I would summon a monster, set a card face down and end my turn. Now there is 40 steps to a turn, requiring me to remember at least 1000 words of effects of cards in my hand, deck, extra deck, and graveyard. I miss, opening a pack and actually be able to do 'something' with every card (yes, skull servant sucks but, I can still use him). As opposed to modern packs where I open a pack get 5 cards that reference and require 30 other cards that I don't own. Making them all worthless.
