I know this format won't last for long but some of us are still eager to play so why not share some lists that did well during the 2024 Pokémon TCG World Championships. There is still Baltimore Regional for our US friends to come and of course some local events for everyone else.
There were only 17 different decks that made Day 2 cut so I added 7 more decks that have done well in the online scene to make it a nice 24 number.
Price for decks are accurate as of August 26th and in USD.
I'll also add a "cards to add from Stellar Crown" section for each decks for those of you who want to start preparing for the new set coming out next month. These cards are just suggestions I'll have from lists I've seen doing well over in Japan.
24) Giratina VSTAR (Lost Zone)
List: 1st - Sharkbait502 - Ditto Masquerade #11
Price: $83.54
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Crispin
- Gravity Stone
- Terapagos ex
- Briar
- Area Zero Underdepths
We start off with a classic favourite for many, it's Lost Zone Giratina! Yup it's still around and still winning events apparently. The deck does have quite a number of answers to a lot of the meta, the issue is just it's consistency, being a Lost Box deck after all. You are at the mercy of your own Flower Selecting.
I've seen a few of the newer cards in some of the list, mostly Crispin which helps to power up Giratina VSTAR without using Mirage Gate. Gravity Stone is another new addition seen in lost box style decks. Some have even tried a combo of Terapagos ex with lighting stuff, along with Briar and Aera Zero! Funky idea but hey it could work for some.
23) Lost Zone Box
List: 5th - SKY_SkyWolf93 - Pokémon Battle Park
Price: $69.26
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Gravity Stone
- Crispin
Yup lost box is still a thing. You thought Kyurem would be the end of it. Techncially yes, the threat of Kyurem has made Lost Box less appealing but it's still very good into most other decks not named Regidrago VSTAR (or Dragapult ex for that matter). We've only got 7-8 months left with the Lost Zone engine so you might want to keep that in mind if you're looking to get new decks.
As for the new set, yeah not much has been added here, it's really only Gravity Stone that has been added in most decks and Lost Box is more than happy to use a card like that anyway.
22) Banette ex/Dusknoir
List: 1st - negrodelespacio - Torneio Teste
Price: $61.14
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Gravity Stone
- Grand Tree
Quite possibly the most popular rogue deck in the game currently, and we can thank 2019 World Champion Henry Brand for that. He came 1 win short of making Day 2 with his Banette/Dusknoir deck. The deck has a lot of board control elements to it, you are trying to slow your opponent down with item lock from Bantte while setting up the board state where you can start getting prizes with either Dusknoir or Radiant Alakazam and have the perfect set-up where ideally your opponent is either down to 1-2 prizes and have Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex to sweep the game from there. Played it a few times myself, very cool deck.
I don't think the deck will gain much from the new set, but Gravity Stone could be a useful addition to help make it trickier for your opponent's active to retreat while under item lock. And since this deck does play multiple Dusknoirs, you could make use of Grand Tree. You'd probably need an additional Dusclops but that can never be a bad thing to make use of.
21) Bloodmoon Ursaluna/Iron Valiant ex
List: 7th - Rivalx92 - Silver Squad Standard Flips The Script
Price: $78.68
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- -
I've been seeing this deck pop up more recently and the idea is neat. You set damage up with Iron Valiant ex for Bloodmoon Ursaluna to start taking big KOs. Good against those aggro decks like Miraidon ex, Roaring Moon ex and Raging Bolt ex. Does seem similar to the old Entei V idea though.
I can't actually think of any of the new cards coming out of Stellar Crown that will help this deck, so it might just the stay the same as it is.
20) United Wings
List: 15th - NerdOut - Late Night Special #9
Price: $27.89
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- -
This deck was always around, but it felt like it was lacking something. And now with Dartrix, you have not just another United Wings attacker, but an attacker that can take down Charizard ex in one hit if the set-up is there. It can still be a bit fragile but it's in a much better spot than it was in any other format previously.
What I mentioned for the previous entry, yup same thing here. I don't see any new cards coming into this deck.
19) Froslass/Munkidori
List: 5th - Facundo Romero - Evolve Thursday Night #7
Price: $55.16
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Gravity Stone
- Crispin
This deck only gained Yveltal from Shrouded Fabled but what an addition, since Yveltal helps to spread damage onto those who already have damage, and guess how that can be done? With the combination of Froslass and Munkidori abilities. The damage might still not be enough against other decks but you still do have Mawile to trap stuff and Ursaluna ex to take the final big KO.
I don't see any real changes to the deck going forwards. Gravity Stone can help to make it difficult for your opponents to retreat. Crispin could be a cool addition to give you access to double Adrena-Brain earlier than usual, which has been one weakness of the deck but the deck will likely still have to rely on Iono, Irida and Arven first so I don't expect it to see much play.
18) Dragapult ex/Pidgeot ex
List: 8th - zaiuz69 - TOURNAMENT OF DOOM! I forgot to make this one...
Price: $88.03
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Sparkling Crystal
- Crispin
- Briar
- Noctowl
- Grand Tree
Probably the best deck not to make Day 2 at Worlds is Dragapult/Pidgeot. There is a one Dragapult deck but it's with Bibarel. The deck has been struggling in this faster-paced format, even with the addition of the Dusknoir line which I initally thought would make the deck better. It's still a very good deck with it's consistency issues, and those who want to use Dragapult ex would rather play Regidrago VSTAR right now. That could start to change soon.
Dragapult might be the deck that gains the most from Stellar Crown. Not only does it now have TWO really good Ace Spec choices, but also Crispin! As mentioned before, Crispin helps decks that play multiple energy and Dragapult's biggest issue has been trying to, firstly, set it up, and then get both the Fire and Psychic onto play. Now Crispin solves that by getting both and you can attach both, one through Crispin and the other manually.
And if you want to save the attachment, well Sparking Crystal makes any Tera Pokémon attack for one less energy, and Dragapult ex is a Tera Pokémon! Which means it can only make use of Briar to take multiple prizes (as if Dragapult didn't already revel from doing that) and also Noctowl. You could set Dragapult up first, get Noctowl into play to then set up Pidgeot. Or just not do that, play Grand Tree, evolve into Pidgeotto and straight into Pidgeot and get Dragapult ready for action that way too. I'm looking forward to see how everyone will innovate with Dragapult ex and surely now it will come good, right?
17) Dragapult ex/Bibarel
.png)
Price: $68.57
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Sparkling Crystal
- Crispin
- Briar
- Noctowl
A dragapult deck did make Day 2, just not the one any of us probably expected. This one uses the Bibarel engine which can go around stuff like Iron Thorns as opposed to Pidgeot, and you are saving your Rare Candies just for Dragapult. It's still a stage 2 deck and will have it's issues and again, people might rather just play Regidrago VSTAR instead.
As for the newer cards, well just read the previous entry. It was a long one but it pretty much sums up why I'm excited for Dragapult in the next format. Just no Grand Tree here as you're not playing Pidgeot. It can still work for Dragapult but I think you'd rather just play Crystal instead.
16) Banette ex/Gardevoir ex
List: 67th - Aleksander Rutowicz - 2024 World Championships
Price: $51.39
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Gravity Stone
This version of Banette with Gardevoir isn't new, it's seen play mostly with the Polish players in major events and online events. And it still works, item lock while using the Gardevoir engine. Is it better than Henry's version with Dusknoir? Not too sure. This deck is also only playing 56 cards, so I might say the Dusknoir one is probably better. It is one of the few decks still playing Spiritomb to stop the likes of Rotom V and Lumineon V.
The only new card I can see making this list is Gravity Stone just to trap some mons in the active while you swing into them with Banette ex and they will be under item lock, so they have to manually retreat with that being +1 now due to Stone. You can always add some new cards around, this deck is only playing 56 cards after all.
15) Lost Zone Box (Radiant Charizard)
List: 53rd - Marco Cifuentes - 2024 World Championships
Price: $49.75
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Gravity Stone
- Crispin
This is the most successful Lost Box variant in Worlds 2024. SableZard has always seen play throughout the year, not as much as other decks let alone other Lost Box variants but it does like going up against these Aggro decks like Moon, Miraidon and RagBolt. This might also be the one Lost Box deck that could put up a fight to Regidrago with the double Manaphy. The deck can also capitalise on people continuing to disrespect the Sableye threat. Secret Box might be my new favourite addition to the deck with so many options for different moves at any time because of it.
This is probably the only Lost Box variant I don't see Crispin seeing much play sadly. Sure it helps to power Rad Zard and Ursaluna ex a turn earlier or so but with only 5 energy, might have lesser uses than the other two Lost Box decks. Stone will see play in this deck, likely with Sableye while you spread damage around and hope to trap something in the active.
14) Snorlax Control
List: 43rd - Ryan Antonucci - 2024 World Championships
Price: $37.96
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Gravity Stone
- Bouffalant
This deck is still around and it's still good into a lot of the current meta decks so people will still play it. I've tried it a few times online, I can't say it's my favourite way to play the game but it does work most of the time when your opponent just has no answers to ever counter you can throw at them.
If there's one deck I don't want to see having Stone, it might be this one. It's bad enough with Snorlax, but imagine bossing something else up only for it to have Stone to prevent you from retreating. It will happen. I could see the new Bouffalant see play as a way to control your opponent's damage output. The deck could also play Terapagos ex and Aera Zero to trap even more stuff onto the bench.
13) Ancient Box
List: 1st - Sakuya Ota - 2024 World Championships (Junior Divison)
Price: $54.96
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- -
With the rise of these Aggro decks in the current format, I honestly think Ancient Box might be in a good spot in the current meta. It did just win back to back big online tournaments as of writing too. You're still attacking with Roaring Moon and sometimes stalling with Flutter Mane but these are still more than good enough to help you build up your damage. I can't say I'm the biggest fan of this particular list but it did win Worlds in Juniors. The Koraidon version got top 4 in Seniors and the Walking Wake made top 64 in Masters.
As for the new set, yeah there's nothing new to add. I can't even find one card to recommend for this.
12) Gholdengo ex/Origin Forme Palkia VSTAR
List: 39th - Cameron Kawasaki - 2024 World Championships
Price: $70.72
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Crispin
- Kofu
And people called me crazy for rating this deck highly going into Worlds. I said someone will get a decent run with it, and 3 of them made Day 2, one just outside of Top 32 as well. Gholdengo thrives on seeing 2-prize pokemon opposite it and with Aggro decks doing well currently, that's just more good news for Gholdengo. And now with the addition of Fezandipit ex, the deck can draw even more cards a turn with it, Radiant Greninja, Pokestop and Gholdengo ex itself.
I've only seen Crispin as the newest addition to Gholdengo decks, but this is also the new version to play Gholdengo as it now pairing up with Dragapult ex. Either way, Crispin helps decks that play multiple energy types and Gholdengo, whichever variant it may be, is known to have a few different types.
There are some decks playing Archaludon but it doesn't look that good. One card that I've not seen anyone add into their lists that seems good after reading it is Kofu, a deck like Gholdengo wants to draw cards, and this sure helps with it.
11) Pidgeot ex Control
List: 27th - Alessandro Cremascoli - 2024 World Championships
Price: $59.07
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Noctowl
- Bouffalant
This is one of the scariest decks for anyone to go up against. Pidgeot Control typical has answers to almost every deck in the meta, if you can set up a decent board state early on. It can wall stuff out with Cornerstone Ogerpon and Mimikyu, trap something with Wellspring Ogerpon, get rid of your trainers with Luxray and even attack with either Pidgeot ex itself or Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex. All that while it's array of supporters can pick apart your hand or the board state at any given time.
As you're already playing two different Ogerpons, you can easily make use of the Noctowl line to help you control the board state. The deck could also play Terapagos ex and Aera Zero to give you more options on the bench.
10) Charizard ex/Pidgeot ex/Dusknoir
List: 20th - Hayato Suzuki - 2024 World Championships
Price: $87.01
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Briar
- Grand Tree
- Aera Zero Underdepths
- Noctowl
- Terapagos ex
And now we get to my favourite deck, Charizard ex. This is the first of two Zards on this list, and this variant with the new Dusknoir line was the most hyped 2 weeks before Worlds from seeing the results in Japan. It died off after the first week of online events as Regidrago VSTAR took over. It's still a very strong deck and can beat most of the meta, the biggest issue being it's Regidrago matchup that's stopping it from being back to it's position as the top deck.
Charizard ex gains two amazing new cards from the next set. Briar helps to take an extra prize from Zard taking a KO when they are down to 2 prizes and you can manipulate the game to where your opponent is down to 2 prizes with the help of the Dusknoir line. This alone makes me excited to play Zard again. If you didn't know, it's my favourite deck.
Grand Tree is another cool new inclusion for the deck. Remember Forest of Giant Plants? Well it's a nerfed version but not every type can use it, not just Grass from before. It's a new way to help get your Pidgeot ex into play by evolving into Pidgeotto first. Or you can always just get your Charmeleon into play and then evolve it into Charizard ex. Or just get a Dusclops and get the Dusknoir right away to start having some fun.
I have seen some lists adding Aera Zero Underdepths and it's not the worst inclusion since, you know, your main attacker is a Tera Pokémon! And with that, you can even add a Noctowl line to help you get those Stage 2 peeps up and running. I've seen a few decks running Terapagos ex to make it easier to use Noctowl, not the worst idea.
9) Chien-Pao ex/Baxcalibur
List: 16th - Lucas Xing - 2024 World Championships
Price: $101.22
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Terapagos ex
- Area Zero Underdepths
- Grand Tree
Yup, this deck made top 16 at Worlds and everyone wrote it off, myself included. The one addition of Fezandipiti ex sure helps with the consistency issue this deck tends to run into, as you're now not too reliant on Bibarel for draw power. It's still pretty much the same deck, just with the Palkia line to give it more options into the Aggro decks not named Miraidon ex. And you still have Iron Hands ex to deal with the set-up decks.
No real new additions in the new set for Chien-Pao/Bax. Terapagos ex and Origin Forme Palkia will be the next big new deck in the coming set but some CP Bax decks have a small package of those two in their decks as well, along with Area Zero. I've even see some of them playing a Pidgeot ex line and Grand Tree as an additional way to get Baxcaliburs up, which also helps as a fool-proof way to get around TM Devo plays.
8) Gardevoir ex
List: 12th - Luo Tian Qing - 2024 World Championships
Price: $52.49
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Gravity Stone
- Crispin
- Slowking
Gardevoir ex is still a good deck. Sure the meta looks hostile for it, maybe it's a bit too slow right now, but you can never truly write this deck off. It got 12th at Worlds and has also won a few online events recently. It does have the same issue as Charizard ex decks, that being the Regidrao VSTAR matchup. Apart from that, you're more than happy to see all the Aggro decks as Gardevoir has plenty of different attackers to deal with all sorts of decks, be it set-up, aggro, mid-tempo and even control!
The card that will most likely see play in Gardevoir from the new set has to be Gravity Stone. Since Gardevoir isn't bothered by energies, you don't mind adding another Retreat Cost to your attackers, likely Flutter Mane with this and hit your opponent's bench while your trap the active. Crispin could see play too since Gardevoir is already running Psychic and Dark energies.
There is a new way to play Gardevoir ex too, and that's with the inclusion of the new Slowking. It makes Gardevoir more of a toolbox deck with all sorts of attackers for Slowking to copy.
- Attack the bench? You've got Kyurem
- Hit 50x damage counters on you for big damage onto your opponent? You've got Onix
- Opponent is down to 1 prize and looking for a cheeky way to win? You've got Slowbro
- Want to hit 70 damage to one of their bench and move them onto the active? You've got Dipplin
And there's probably more niche attackers you never knew you could use until now, thanks to Slowking!
7) Charizard ex/Pidgeot ex/Bibarel
List: 10th - Tord Reklev - 2024 World Championships
Price: $85.66
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Briar
- Grand Tree
- Aera Zero Underdepths
- Noctowl
- Terapagos ex
Not a fan of the Dusknoir line? No worries, you can always cut it or just adapt, like Tord has with his new build. TM Devo is back into the list and so are the Bibarel/Skwovet combo. The Rabsca line is added as a counter to Dragapult's attack. Apart from that, it's most the same type of Zard deck you'll see, but this less reliant of the Zard itself, with just a 2-1-2 line. Radiant Charizard plays a bigger role here as cards like Hisuian Heavy Ball, Thorton and DTE are all added to get it attacking whenever needed.
As for the new stuff, just see what I said previously for Zard. TM Evo could end up getting replaced by Grand Tree, but that will make it harder to get a Turn 2 Bibarel in play going 2nd. I do think the Dusknoir version of Charizard ex will get more popular purely because of Briar.
6) Lugia VSTAR/Archeops
List: 9th - Rahul Reddy - 2024 World Championships
Price: $81.16
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Area Zero Underdepths
- Terapagos ex
- Noctowl
- Fan Rotom
One of the more hyped decks going into Worlds thanks to it's Japan Championship win, Lugia hasn't really changed much since the introduction of Shrouded Fable. In fact it too gains Fezandipiti ex for draw power and unlike most other decks, this Fezandipiti can probably attack as well! But of course we are talking about a Lugia deck and it has one glaring issue, it's set-up. If you can't set-up, you won't be having a good time and with many Aggro decks in the format right now that can take out a Lugia Turn 1, it can get even scarier with a bad first turn.
There aren't many big changes to the deck but some have been experimenting with the Terapagos ex package, where you have Area Zero, Noctowl to help you get Ultra Ball and whatever you need to get those Archeops out of the way and Fan Rotom to help set up the Cinccino line. Other than that, the deck doesn't really gain much from the new set. There aren't any new special energies anyway!
5) Raging Bolt ex/Teal Mask Ogerpon ex
List: 6th - James Goreing - 2024 World Championships
Price: $131.08
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Area Zero Underdepths
- Noctowl
- Glass Trumpet
- Raging Bolt
- Joltik and Galvantula ex
- Crispin
- Briar
The three big Aggro musketeers have all made it into the top 5 and Raging Bolt is up first. Teal Mask Ogerpon turned what was a niche Raging Bolt attacker into one of the scariest attacker into any deck now, being able to hit 350 damage within Turn 2! It's the usual hit-hard-hit-fast type of deck that can steamroll any deck that can't respond back in time. And looking at the results in Japan for the next set, this deck seems to get even better.
There are quite a number of cards coming from the next set that can be included in Raging Bolt decks and there seems to be two different ways for it. The first is the inclusion of Area Zero to give you a bigger bench space, which means more space for Ogerpon and also the Noctowl line. You can even add a cheeky Glass Trumpet to add even more energies onto the board. The new Raging Bolt could see play, it can hit for each energy on it to any of your opponent's Pokemon on board.
The other new direction the deck could go for is the addition of Galvantula ex. Even though it needs 3 different energy to attack, you are already playing Grass, Lighting and Fighting energy, the same 3 Galvantula ex needs so it's the perfect addition. It's can also make use of Crispin with it's 3 different energies and Briar to take an extra prize. This version of the deck wouldn't make it the same turbo deck but does give it more options with the item lock from Galvantula ex.
4) Regidrago VSTAR/Teal Mask Ogerpon ex
List: 1st - Evan Pavelski - 2024 World Championships (Senior Divison)
Price: $151.94
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Crispin
- Noctowl
- Briar
- Hydrapple ex
Probably the best deck in format despite not winning the world championships in Masters, it did win in Seniors! Regidrago just has answers to everything:
- Hit for big 200 and spread 6 damage around with Dragapult
- Possible one-hit KO thanks to Giratina
- 110 onto 3 thanks to Kyurem (+Cologne and Catcher/Boss onto their Manaphy)
- Tank attacks while doing 200 thanks to Goodra
The deck has so many options and thanks to Ogerpon, it fixes Regidrago's awkward attack cost. And don't forget, Ogerpon is a decent attacker itself too.
Regidrago VSTAR is another deck that will be more than happy to see the addition of Crispin. The deck already runs two different energies so having the ability to take both and attach one to go with your manual attachment for turn will help make the deck even better as it now doesn't need to rely on Energy Switch all that much.
Noctowl is one I can see being played in the deck also, as it can help you fetch said Energy Switch, Crispin, Vessel or whatever you need to get going. And people may forget this, but Teal Mask Ogerpon is a Tera pokemon, so it works with Noctowl! And with that, Briar could also see play to help you take those final KOs with Ogerpon. A niche addition could be Hydrapple ex, it heals when you attach a Grass energy to your Pokemon. Not just Hydrapple, which means you have another way to attach energies to Regidrago VSTAR.
3) Miraidon ex
List: 3rd - Jesse Parker - 2024 World Championships
Price: $106.63
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Area Zero Underdepths
- Terapagos ex
- Glass Trumpet
- Zeraora
- Joltik
Miraidon is still good! The deck has always preferred a faster format and we are in one now and that's why it's thriving again. Fezandipit ex, much like many other decks on this list, is the biggest inclusion in the deck to keep the deck moving. Some lists have played the new Night Academy to help guarantee at least one Lighting energy from your Generators. This deck could have easily gone 16-0 at the World championships, which is unheard of, if not for some controversy and just bad prizing
There is one big new addition from the next set, and that is Area Zero Underdepths. Miraidon is a deck that doesn't mind having a bigger bench, it can find Pokémon with it's ability and it helps Raikou V's attack as well. The two main addition with the new stadium is either Terapagos ex or Mewtwo ex (it's a lighting type so it works with Miraidon ex).
There are a few cards that might see play here or there. Glass Trumpet could be a funny inclusion as a way to help boost Raichu V's attack by attaching energies to Squawkabilly ex and Terapagos ex. Zeraora attacks more for your opponent's bench and if they've got their own Area Zero going, it could do even more. Joltik just helps to attach two energies (Lighting and Grass), which can be handy to get an Iron Hands ex going!
2) Roaring Moon ex
List: 2nd - Seinosuke Shiokawa - 2024 World Championships
Price: $94.90
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Crispin
Probably the most surprising deck to success at the World Championship, and one that has seen a surge of popularity since Worlds. Roaring Moon ex has been part of the meta before, it's most relevant days were with Moltres V just before rotation but now it's back!
Fezandipit helps the deck to draw more cards, which is helpful considering you've got Sada and Rad Greninja! The big inclusion for me is Pecharunt ex. Now you can easily power up your Roaring Moon ex and get it into the active without worrying about retreat costs or switch carts. It's also a very good counter to stall as I've learnt from one of my top cut games in an online tournament.
As for the new set, Crispin is the only card I can think of that could see play in Roaring Moon, and it would be with Water Energy and Energy Switch. We've seen many people play Moon with this strategy before so with the addition of Crispin, it could be a lot easier to pull it off. Other than that, yeah nothing new for this deck from the next set as of yet.
1) Iron Thorns ex
List: 1st - Fernando Cifuentes - 2024 World Championships
Price: $62.28
Cards to add from Stellar Crown:
- Kofu
- Gravity Stone
I still can't believe THIS deck won the world championships. Just how? It counters a lot of the current decks, especially the vast amount of Turbo decks we've got right now that all depend heavily on a Turn 1 Squawkabilly ex, Lumineon V, Rotom V and Fezandipit ex and also decks running the Pidgeot ex or Gardevoir ex engines. And if that wasn't bad enough, we've got the useless coin flips of both Crushing Hammer and Pokémon Catcher. If that still isn't annyoing enough, how about Lost City getting rid of your Pokémon every time they get KOed. And don't forget about Judge. I's quite easy to see what this deck is all about and hey it won so it works I guess.
There's only really one definite addition and it's Kofu. It lets you draw 4 more additional cards at the cost of putting 2 onto the bottom of the deck, which a deck like Iron Thorns won't mind since you have a number of ways to find those cards again. Any additional draw power is good for a deck like this. Gravity Stone helps with the trapping strategy.
Here's a comparison of how much all these decks would cost to make:
- Regidrago VSTAR - $151.94
- Raging Bolt ex/Teal Mask Ogerpon ex - $131.08
- Miraidon ex - $106.63
- Chien-Pao ex/Baxcalibur - $101.22
- Roaring Moon ex - $94.90
- Dragapult ex/Pidgeot ex - $88.03
- Charizard ex/Pidgeot ex/Dusknoir - $87.01
- Charizard ex/Pidgeot ex/Bibarel - $85.66
- Giratina VSTAR (Lost Zone) - $83.54
- Lugia VSTAR/Archeops - $81.16
- Bloodmoon Ursaluna/Iron Valiant ex - $78.68
- Gholdengo ex/Origin Forme Palkia VSTAR - $70.72
- Lost Zone Box - $69.26
- Dragapult ex/Bibarel - $68.57
- Iron Thorns ex - $62.28
- Banette ex/Dusknoir - $61.14
- Pidgeot ex Control - $59.07
- Froslass/Munkidori - $55.16
- Ancient Box - $54.96
- Gardevoir ex - $52.49
- Banette ex/Gardevoir ex - $51.39
- Lost Zone Box (Radiant Charizard) - $49.75
- Snorlax Control - $37.96
- United Wings - $27.89
20 of these decks costs less than 100 USD$ to build from scratch, it just shows how affordable the game is right now. The expensive ones are quite obvious, Regidrao VSTAR is the BDIF so those pieces will be more costly. The other main reason is Teal Mask Ogerpon ex, the two decks running it as an engine ends up as the two most expensive decks in the game right now, I think there is a reason to it. Miraidon ex and Chien-Pao being the other two past the 100 USD mark could be down to stuff like Iron Hands ex, which is in both decks btw.
The cheapest? Well United Wings barely cost $30 to get something going. Sablezard is probably the cheapest really good deck on the list followed by the Gardevoir ex decks.
Thanks for reading! And just a little fun addition, I wanted to see what are the current "playable" cards you should have to play any of these decks, so I guess this is the ideal binder to keep for the time being?
