all pokemon cards in brilliant stars has been so good to me. Is everyone else loving this set? : r/PokemonTCG Pokémon Sword & Shield Brilliant

A lot of decks are built around hitting certain numbers -- usually 170 or 180 in order to knock out EX Pokemon -- so having 190 HP can throw a tiny but significant wrench into your opponent's plans

Here's some more info on Nicol Bolas cards you might consider for your deck: Nicol Bolas, Dragon God A legendary planeswalker, Dragon God has an interesting passive ability - it shares all the loyalty abilities of other planeswalkers on the battlefield

But it is not that simple

On top of that, playing Lorien Revealed for "three mana" when chapter 3 goes off is often just game over, as you should have infinite ammo to fend off whatever your opponent is doing at that point

I mentioned the unique artwork only found in the collector boosters

2-4 board wipes feel correct most of the time
