Please give users something other than Lugia

Playing against Lugia decks non stop is so boring. The deck is a no brain pre school deck that literally I've trained my cat to use. I make hard counter decks against Lugia and sometimes it works but most times when i play Lugia counter decks, I never get matched vs Lugia. This game is getting so old and stale right now. Either force migration soon so we can have a variety of players or give people a bunch more decks to play.

    Lugia would still be the most common deck even if it wasn't free. People play on ranked to win, not to be creative. Remember that we also get the Regidrago VSTAR deck in this battle pass, but you don't see too much of that.


    Stick to only casual if the meta isn't working for you. That, or wait until April when rotation nerfs Lugia to death.

    If you "never get matched vs Lugia" when you're playing a counter, doesn't that contradict your previous argument "Playing against lugia decks non-stop"?

    Also, you'll be surprised if you know how many people i've played that have no idea how to play Lugia, some people just love attacking with 3 Lugia apparently.

    @Edurandomnumber The number of people who think that Blissey V and Lugia VMAX are a good pairing is enough proof that understanding Lugia requires some brainpower. Ugh...

    When rotation comes we wont see any lugia anymore apart from those desperate to keep hold as so many staples it needs like powerful energy is going bye bye.

    I mean I've found it incredibly common to come up against people just running a stack of whatever they have, and given that everybody gets given Lugia VStars and Archeops they're gonna be all over the place. It's super funny running into Lugia/Blissey/Urshifu stacks tho it's like heck yeh dilute it even more please

    I guess it's worth just teching stuff like Regieleki or Raikou V or Vikavolt to beat out the Lugias if you're seeing it a lot

    Hey look, it’s @lvlrAdam’s weekly “when I run a deck, it chooses a deck that’s good against mine/isn’t what I wanted to face” post!
