  • Slightly disappointed that the Greens seemed to run out of steam in the final week, but getting their first seats is still an achievement.

    Regardless of the results, I was interested how proportional the results were under the new system:

    Party Vote share Seat share Votes per seat
    PC 35% 45% 10,341
    Reform 29% 35% 10,823
    Labour 11% 9% 15,467
    Con 11% 7% 19,275
    Green 7% 2% 42,304
    LD 4% 1% 56,012





  • I’ve got a pathetic pulsing aura deck to try and do the “win with x pulsing aura cards in your deck” and I’ve stuck the “bounded field” stadium card in there, and it seems kinda crazy: weakness is x2 instead of +20 (doesn’t apply to mega pokemon’s attacks). If you get lucky with matchup, it’s a completely different match. x2 is the weakness in the proper ptcg afaik, but it’s a different game. x2 in ptcgp gives a huge advantage.
















  • I just came across someone playing a new deck: chatot/rampardos/kabutops.

    Chatot is the only basic, so you always start with it and can reshuffle your cards until you find your fossils and rare candies. Chatot and Kabutops only one 1 retreat cost, so you can switch them about if you need to look for another fossil later and chatot survived.

    I tried it out and it’s pretty fun. Not sure if it’s good yet.



  • I was still using a Blaine deck, but I was making no progress in ranked. It’s good enough to hover about in UB1, but not good enough to get to UB2. So I switched to a Rampardos/Lucario deck and got to UB2 without too much difficulty even though I only have one rare candy. Haven’t tried to progress to UB3 yet.

    I pulled a second Solgaleo, but haven’t really tried it out yet. The problem with stage 2 decks (or even stage 1 decks) is that they always have a chance to brick, whereas Darktina is so consistent because it’s only basics. I’d like to try a Darktina counter deck, but I don’t have any Oricorios.
