Trying a new format out here, post-narrating! I wanted to try and do this to give a bit more of an overview than live play gives. I'm no Pooka when it comes to explaining things, but I want to improve at the game and this is a good way to do it. RIGHT NOW I won't be adding music to these games because that will require a second rendering pass and I don't want to lose video quality by doing this, but I may change my mind later on if it becomes really important for some reason. Please leave some feedback as to how I can improve here, and just generally what I can do to make these better.

Another stream game that turned out very well. This time we take on an interesting deck that I hadn't played against until the night of the stream, being Plasma Klinklang. This powerful card completely shuts down all damage that Pokémon EX can deal to the team's Metal Pokémon upon entering the field. Metal Pokémon may not do as much damage as most other types, but they certainly do enough whereby they can tank pretty well, particularly when their EX attackers cannot be hurt by the majority of most competitive decks.

My deck is definitely NOT competitive however, as I am trying to use Scolipede from the last set. This somewhat bulky Psychic type is designed to take a hit and poison the opponent with its ability, which then allows it to hit for high damage using Venoshock. It's slow, and susceptible to your opponent's actions... and is resisted by Metal and Dark pokémon, but it still has a chance thanks to Virbank City Gym/Hypnotoxic LAser combo, which has infamously given poison decks a gigantic boost in power. As it turns out though my list needs a bit of refining to make it work better, but it's not TOO terrible!

So, how will the tanky Poison-types fare against the cold Plasma Steel? Find out by watching!
