Hi everyone. This is my first post, and probably will be my last (if it
gets posted at all).
Everyone is always complaining about how archetypes are ruining the fun.
Well they are absolutely right. But its not for the reason of just luck
and power, its all about speed. Back in the day of the base set,
everyone was concetrating on power, charizard, zapdos, blastoise,
venasaur. But soon those decks became crushed by everyone's favorite hay
pokemon. Even stall lost popularity because it didnt have the speed to
compete with other decks. Now all "good" decks are hay, raindance or
variants of those because they have the ability to hit for up to 60 2nd
turn. And that takes all the fun out of the game. I used to play only my
wiggly and modified raindance, but i stopped because it was getting
boring for me and for my opponents. Now i play weird decks, and only
play against other people with weird decks because i have no intention
of seeing a jiggly active against me and going, "Hmm, im gonna get hit
for 60 next turn," Sometimes I even win agaisnt the archetypes. Once i
beat a wigglymaker with a zapdos deck. That was fun. You probably dont
see where I'm going with this article, neither do I. I just want to make
a point that if you dont want to lose, play speed. You have no other
choice.
Im not against archetypes, its just that they suck the fun out of the
game.
