What’s the first thing you think about when building a team/deck?

Some players build around favorites, others focus entirely on countering the meta, and some start with a strategy they want to experiment with. Even when two players use similar Pokémon/cards, their approach to building can end up completely different.

    It's normally unintentional

    My brain things without permission them next thing I know I have a new deck or team idea

    Zero real planning goes into it
