  • I've been playing the Pokemon Trading Card Game for over a decade now, and as a veteran of the physical and digital card game through PTCGO, I'm here to help new players navigate Pokemon Trading Card Game Live, of PTCGL, or Pokemon TCG Live, as it's come to be known. Although trading isn't an option anymore, the game is extremely generous in the ways it lets players get new cards, and I'm going to show you all the ways you can build a dream deck without buying any packs to use code cards. If this gets a bunch of views I might even make a tutorial on the card game itself.

    When you go up against someone that has way to many golden rares you know your getting flexed on.

      This reminds me, I kinda wanna make a staple-crafting guide. Honestly it's not even super hard to get a decently blinged-out deck, apart from energies since you need so many of those. It shouldn't be a priority, but you can make most of your staples golden with just a couple months' worth of credits.

    If people were smart, they would have had 4 copies of each celebrations card before migration to ptcgl. I did it, and exchanged 400 celebration codes and got well over a quarter million credits to make cards with. Months later and I still have 200k and every card needed for any deck.

      Celebi V is from an old set. Look in the bottom left corner of the card and you'll see a D symbol--that card isn't legal for the standard format anymore. Right now you have to use cards from E, F, or G.

      Ah, that just means the card has a chance to be of a higher rarity. It's a gacha system of sorts; whether you actually get an ex or whatever is all up to chance.

      Charizard, Chien-Pao, and Gholdengo are good places to start. Pretry thick lines (mostly 3 or 4 of each card), and the way you're supposed to play each of those decks is pretty similar no matter what the matchup is.

    • @MikeTheEntei
      @MikeTheEntei  8 месяцев назад +2

      So, first of all, my video here is a bit wrong. I recommend getting Shadow Rider Calyrex decks, not Celebration packs. The first two times you buy the shadow rider deck, you won't get a lot of credits because you don't have four of everything yet. However, from the third time on, you should get around 4,000 credits. The deck costs 1,250 crystals, which means you can get the deck a little more than once every three weeks. (Around twice a month if you make it to Great League every time.)
      Each Pokemon-ex costs 750 credits, if I recall correctly. Most trainers cost 100 credits, but some Rare trainers and Pokemon are 400, I think. Based on all that, you can preeeeeetty much make a full deck from scratch every two or three months.
      However, a lot of trainer cards, such as Iono, Boss's Orders, and Professor's Research, are used in most of the relevant decks in the standard format. So, once you build one or two decks, you'll likely have most of the trainer cards you need to build others, and you'll mostly have to worry about the Pokemon from that point on. It's still a rather slow grind, since the daily challenges are pretty much all you can do to get crystals, apart from advancing through the leagues, and getting to ultra league is REALLY hard and time-consuming. Even Azul GG, one of the best Pokemon TCG players in the world, is almost always stuck in Great League during his streams.
      However, you only have to play a little bit every day. Most daily challenges can be completed in one or two matches, and if you complete the daily challenges every day, the battle pass will take care of itself. (There's five weeks to go on the current one and I'm already done.)
      Also!!!! Ask your locals if they allow proxies. If you have sleeves and own a printer, you can make paper versions of the cards you don't own and put them in front of any random card, and pretend like you have the real thing. Proxies are allowed by most people in casual play, and even in some unofficial tournaments. However, if you're going to official or serious tournaments and locations, you'll need the real cards. If you intend to trade or buy, use TCGplayer.com, not eBay. You'll get a more accurate view of what a card is worth there.
