First off congrats!!! this is a massive accomplishment. Maybe not the vid to say this but I would love if you invest on a mic, don't mind as much the vid quality but your content is top notch and I'm sure you'll see engagement changes with just a good mic.
Thanks Lily! I have a blue yeti, but I feel like I don't have my sound settings configured correctly. Do you think there are better mics? I'm happy to invest in a new one, any recommendations?
@@CiaranTCG Oh! that explains, a lot of Blue Yeti mics have these issues were it picks up everything and then it somehow sounds like you are in another room due to the intense echo it creates. I wouldn’t say it’s your EQ. A budget pick could be ATR2100x-USB or a lil more expensive, the Rode Podcaster. Hope this helps! Keep up the great content :)
I've tried making it "as consistent as I can" but maybe that second lumineon and double nest ball is what I need. I was doing 1 and 1, but with 4 great ball.
Well deserved placement for a great player such as you ! I hear you talking a lot about reading the wind early, do you prefer going first or second with Lugia ?
Great Vid bro 🙌 Im on the same spot rigth now, im testing drago for dortmund but i can flip coins with lugia like i did in Worlds. Dont know what to play of those 2 😂
Thanks Hugo! Honestly feels like Drago and Lugia are similarly powerful decks. If people still refuse to play Temple/Hammer when it's time for Dortmund then I'd just run Lug!
Congrats! I think decks like Zard doesn't have the space anymore to tech against Lugia but unluckily noir are just too good to throw at Cincinno and restablish the board.
Charizard decks are so greedy/tight these days that hopefully they keep disrespecting Lugia. I even see Charizard decks with 4 fire energy sometimes lol
sorry to asks, but how ancient box is a "free" matchup? I'm having quite a trouble figuring out. What are the sequencing or the attacker you would use? Thx in advance
They just can't keep up with you in a prize trade since Lugia VSTAR has too much HP. They can maybe do 280 late game, but by then you should have won. You can also use Iron Hands on Greninja to trade 2 for 1 at some point. Basically Legacy just completely makes the trade winning for you. An example attacker sequencing might be VSTAR --> VSTAR --> Cinccino --> Hands
As a beginner who wants to play lugia, would you blame me for being interested in your list? Been trying to find a good list to build up a deck besides copying the one from tcg live
Congrats brotha! Your win is coming
nah bro, you need yours
When’s the rahul / Ciaran collab vid coming?
Thanks bro. We are both due!
Maybe we will have to do the Rahul + Ciaran Lugia guide!
Congrats with the huge result man! 👏
Thank you Mr. Zapdos!
Congrats bro! You’ll get that big win soon 🔥
Thanks Matt, I know it's coming!
Greta work man! Congrats on the stellar run! 🎉
Thanks bro!
Congrats on the 2nd place! Love your list, its super consistent, with no bs.
Thank you! Felt a bit weird to have no spice in the list, but the deck is so strong it doesn't need it!
Congrats! You made us Lugia believers proud!
Thanks Chaz, I had to represent for all my fellow Lugia Bots!
So proud of you, Ciaran! I'm great fan of you.
Thanks Azael, I appreciate the support :)
babe wake up new Ciaran tcg video dropped
sorry honey, im up now, what are we gonna eat for dinner?
My bad, I kept you guys sleeping for too long
Legendary playing from a legendary guy!!!
The highest praise from an OG fan
My buddy was Nik playing the ancient box. Congrats on 2nd place!
Thank you! Nik was a dope dude, unfortunate we couldn't have a better set!
@@CiaranTCGdon't worry he was very proud he lost to an opponent who got 2nd place lol.
Huge congrats!
Thanks Jayson :)
Congrats!
Thanks Cobra!
The roaring moon set was such a great match
One of the closest sets of my career! I'm definitely going to post a vod review of that one
great run, congrats
Thank you :)
Dude the play in top4 when you put the dte on the lugia to keep the moon alive was crazy
That one goes in to the career highlight reel for sure! That was one of the closest sets of my life!
@@CiaranTCG honored to have been there live

Thank you, I'll take a look!
I've tried making it "as consistent as I can" but maybe that second lumineon and double nest ball is what I need. I was doing 1 and 1, but with 4 great ball.
Second Lumineon is essential imo. It basically turns all your Ultra Balls into Supporters and Aromas into 50-50s!
Well deserved placement for a great player such as you ! I hear you talking a lot about reading the wind early, do you prefer going first or second with Lugia ?
Thank you! Blind I always pick first, but you want to go second against the aggro decks (moon, bolt, miraidon) and Charizard
@@CiaranTCG Thanks a lot, will try that out to a League Cup tomorrow ! 🔥

Congrats, do you think your list without jamming tower is still favourites into gardy?
I think as long as Gardy doesn't play Special Energy hate I'm favoured. Henry just hit the nuts both games and I was too slow to set up
Congrats! do you think the list is going to change for stellar crown?
Thank you! Honestly, I don't think I'd change a single card for Stellar Crown.

@@Mr-Eleven my list is probably the most streamlined and beginner friendly version out there. I definitely think it's great for beginners!
I played on stream too and embarrassed myself lmao
It is honestly so much harder to play on stream, especially if it's your first time lol
i also thought lugia was the best call, didnt practice matchups enough unfortunately
What did you end up playing?
@@CiaranTCG lugia :) got 476th, 4-1-4, didnt run squawk
Azul called you the best player to never have gotten a big win on his podcast. You have to change that soon.
That's super high praise! I need to get out of the ringless category soon
