I've had a lot of comments pointing out my incorrect zapdos math-- I'm pinning this message so you can see that I acknowledge it was wrong and I'll use the right math from now on
As an avid TCGP player, Mew2 main, and avid watcher of TCGP RUclips content, I must say that videos like this is exactly what RUclips was missing. There was no "OMG, you must try this C(rap) tier deck because it's AMAZING!" No whining about this card or that. No pompousness or arrogance because one time you placed in some backwater tournament with 32 people with Numetal. (though I will admit, winning with Numetal against S tier decks is funny) Your video was just clean, concise, accurate and thorough. Well done, Sir! On that note, consider me sub number 205.
@jaysemple8139 I appreciate it bro! I'm tryn to fill a niche I saw completely unoccupied in this community, and I'm gonna keep pursuing it cuz this first videos done pretty well
i have been looking up this kind of information on Pocket and there is nothing on youtube like this (dealing with advance plays. there’s only videos on deck building but not interactions during game like this). Amazing videos!! easy subscribe!!
A very nice and thorough guide. Mewtwo Ex is one heck of a monster deck and this really outlines why. Crazy thing is that it didn't gain that much from the mini-set, but remains overwhelming!
The context of the new set gave it both a super strong enemy in gyarados, but also the really nice context of the other decks in the game being overall weaker against mewtwo, sometimes context is the buff or the nerf that new cards give
Mystical Slab is actually a huge upgrade, before you were way more likely to just having Gardevoir or Kirlia chilling in the bottom of your deck. As long as it doesn’t hit exactly Professor’s Research you are getting closer to the card you need way more consistently.
That prof Research turn into Pot of Greed scared the hell out of me. Anyways keep making this advance guide for the meta decks, literally noone doing it.
Nice guide, got me taking notes and all that 😭 I have a quick question... If I just had one consistency card in my hand, say just a professor's research, should I save it and wait to combo it with a ball or slab? Or should I just use it alone? Thanks.
Thanks for the great detailed video :) What is your take on the decks with one fossil instead of the Jynx or MewEX? I'm not too knowledgeable on this deck, I'm still getting the pack points to craft my second Gardevoir to completely the list. But yeah i saw people talk about the fossil, for possible Sabrina mixups? Keen to hear what you think :)
@theplaguedoc1997 this deck doesn't need the sabrina support so much, since gardevoir can inherently support retreats. Importantly, that 1 deck slot is so important from format to format for solving this decks biggest weaknesses, for example in GA Format this deck used regular non-ex mewtwo as a wall to soak up damage and only give 1 prize point
The problem with mewtwo is you cant really set anything else up because you need to use gardevoir and your energy to keep MT going. Basically putting all your eggs in one basket.
Amazing video. I only spotted one mistake. Zapdos does not have 40% chance to hit a 150 or 200. That is because coin tosses do not work that way. Getting a 0 or a 200 is much less likely than the other options, because there is only one arrangement of coins that can make that happen, while there are multiple arrangements of coins that can result in a 50, 100, or 150. The math is a little too complex to write down here, but just look up how to calculate the likelihood of multiple coin tosses. I also disagree on your evaluation of Mew ex in the deck. Mew can fuck up so many strategies, with the only real exception being Gyarados ex (which is the best deck in the game imo in part for that reason). Jynx is a good option, but notice that Mew can demolish huge ex threats before they set up, while Jynx needs them to already be scary af to kill.
Here are the probabilities for each possible combination of heads (H) and tails (T) in 4 coin tosses: HHHH: 6.25% HHHT: 6.25% HHTH: 6.25% HHTT: 6.25% HTHH: 6.25% HTHT: 6.25% HTTH: 6.25% HTTT: 6.25% THHH: 6.25% THHT: 6.25% THTH: 6.25% THTT: 6.25% TTHH: 6.25% TTHT: 6.25% TTTH: 6.25% TTTT: 6.25% Each combination has an equal probability of 6.25% because there are 16 possible outcomes (2^4) and each outcome is equally likely. Therefore 25% for 3 head and 6.25% for 4 head, totaling to 31.25% for zapdos to kill mewtwo in 1 shot
I've played all the meta decks except for Mewtwo because I never got two of them. I eventually did, played this deck and it just felt like a worse Charizard ex deck (crazy since mewtwo still top tier and fire decks "fell off"). I much prefer powering up a Charizard line with Moltres ex, and Charizard hitting for 200 seems like more relevant in this MI meta with gyrados ex, pigeons ex, Charizard ex, blastoise ex, egg ex ,so on. But I'm glad you made this because everyone seems used to playing against this deck and knows how to counter play, but you provided strategies on how to deal with those threats by hitting them before they can hit mewtwo. Still I don't think this deck is what it was back in GA.
I have been playing Duel Links since it was released all those years a go. I no longer have enough time to invest in the game anymore or cash. That's where Pokémon Pocket came in. I find it much more passive with easy to farm events and it's much more casual than anything in the Yugioh catalogue and I have decided to commit what little spare time I have to Ptcgp instead of Duel Links. Now, the undeadsputed king of DL RUclips has a Ptcgp channel. Hell fucking yeah!
@9:52 it is wrong to slab first then prof Oak second. If you're looking for psychic pokemon, the slab/Oak order doesn't matter because as long as the psychic is within next 3 cards, both orders will get what you're looking for. If the psychic pokemon is not within the top three cards, then neither order increases the likelihood of drawing it. It is generally better to Oak first since it opens up more options after drawing 2 cards. also @12:26, the probability of Zapdos Ex flipping at least 3 heads killing mewtwo is about 31% not 40%.
If the top 3 cards of the deck don't contain a psychic pokemon, then thats fine, but you dont know for sure. Slabbing with a lower density of psychics in deck is obviously worse and youre running that risk. Zapdos has 5 outcomes, all as likely as each other, that means all outcomes at 20% as likely to happen as each other. 2 outcomes lead to knocking out mewtwo, so 40% is the chance. I don't know where you made up that 31%. -Undead
@@UndeadP6Ke whether you Oak or Slab first, it literally does not change what the 4th card of the deck nor make you draw it quicker. no one made up 31%, it's called binominal distribution. It's not 40% because all 5 outcomes are not equally likely to happen at 20%. By your logic, if it's 40% to flip 3 or more heads, then it should be 40% to flip 1 or less heads, so the chance of 2 heads should be 20%?
@@UndeadP6Kethe best example to oak first is that it can get you pokeball which could change how you slab and actually increase the chance of getting what you need. You can't do that if slab first
@protoslashwyl that's one possibility out of many, when weighing all possibilities together, you doing that is taking a chance on a good outcome or a bad outcome or an even outcome, stabbing first gives you guaranteed value -undead
Chance depends on coinflips in this games, so Zapdos EX has a 31.25% chance of OHKO'ing Mewtwo EX (without any modifications) It goes: 4Heads, 6.25% 3H, 25% 2H, 37.5% 1H, 25% 0H, 6.25%

a month from now Darkrai EX gonna finally put Mewtwo down
Am i the only one using a pokedex to just know its safe to use a mythical slab and not risk sending a prof. research to the bottom?
People have done that but it's hard to justify the slot in the deck when other utilities are available
Better to use a Porygon on the bench

@marcocartaerainnocente7374 well I spent 35 minutes answering that question already

1H, 25%
0H, 6.25%
