选拔世界锦标赛

Top of the morning, Trainers! Today I have a bit of a different article for you as it feels like the online circuit may be coming to a bit of a close. I wanted to cover a unique event put on by Pokémon, the “Draft the World” tournament that was most recently won by Xander Pero. It’s an interesting event where players essentially drafted high-caliber decks from previous World Championships and play different formats of Pokémon.

“There's a world-class Pokémon TCG tournament coming up, and you won't want to miss a minute of the excitement. To help celebrate 25 years of Pokémon, the Draft the World tournament will showcase the top decks and top-level players from the 2014–2019 Pokémon World Championships.

八位全球最优秀的 Pokémon TCG 玩家将在双败淘汰赛中重温往届世界锦标赛的最佳套牌和对决。每轮比赛都将聚焦于不同的世界锦标赛，所有玩家都将使用当年跻身前列的套牌的精确副本。

为了改变现状，在锦标赛开始前，玩家将选出他们想要使用的牌组。首先会选出哪些牌组？你熟悉和喜爱的对决会以相同的方式进行吗？还是新玩家能够一直使用他们的牌组？

我们可以了解一下这次事件的结构以及它的进展情况。

我启动了我的 Pokemon Trading Card Game Online 应用程序，加载了一些 PTCGO 代码，然后用这些 Pokemon 在线代码交换文章中提到的这些卡组。我非常兴奋，说实话，制作这些卡组并不需要那么多 PTCGO 代码。如果您想购买一些代码，我们会在 PTCGO 商店出售它们，我强烈建议您查看我们具有竞争力的价格和快速交付！让我们来谈谈最新的锦标赛，Draft the World！

The invitational bracket is a different one altogether that navigates six different years within the Pokémon TCG: 2018, 2015, 2019, 2016, 2014, and finally 2017 in that order. Once you triumph one format, you’re immediately put into a different era in the next round. If you lose, you’re also put into a different era which can be advantageous for you if you have a good matchup or even better yet a strong handle on that format. Many of the players listed within this tournament are extremely seasons players who have excelled in quite a few of these eras: some players haven’t touched a few eras, however. Here is the roster of players:

帕布罗·梅萨（墨西哥）

莉迪亚·洪巴赫（德国）

Xander Pero（美国）

Ross Cawthon（美国）

托尔德·雷克莱夫（挪威）

娜塔莉亚·费尔南德斯（巴西）

Chase Moloney（加拿大）

Michael Pramawat（美国）

All of these players have won or top cut a major event of some sort, whether that be a Regional, International, or for a few players, even a World Championships. They’ve been threats in many eras of Pokémon or contributed majorly to the game in some way, and have a vast depth of the intricacies between each format. Since this was an invitational tournament, I’d expect each player to be very strong in some way.

如果我决定回顾每个人的牌组选择，那么这篇文章将永远写下去，因此我想重点介绍 Xander 的一些关键选择，这些选择最终让他在决赛中战胜了 Ross Cawthon。我认为 Xander 在他的旅程中选择了一些出色的牌组，我想谈谈他做出的一些关键决定，这些决定让他赢得了奖杯。让我们来看看最初的选秀轮次：

This era was full of Seismitoad-EX, one of the most impactful cards to be printed (of all time). Item-lock was a very viable strategy at this point, and many pokemon online decks were unable to handle the pressure. Jeffrey Cheng’s 东潘 can occasionally struggle against this archetype, but has viable answers to the rest of the format! Focus Sash alongside a single Prize Card attacker was oftentimes too much for decks to handle, sometimes even having to hit a Donphan twice to OHKO it. Factor in Robo Substitute as well as being able to pivot to the bench, and you have yourself a deck made in heaven.

KOing a Donphan was a pesky task during this era, mostly because you had to use a Lysandre to KO it (and you oftentimes would have to Lysandre it back up once again because of the Focus Sash). Even if you did KO the Donphan, it was a very low-maintenance attacker that could just be setup once again. Donphan’s Wreck attack can score huge KOs on EX Pokémon in order to swing the Prize Exchange in your favor. I haven’t even gotten into Hawlucha, which with the right situation can act as a free pivot after a Spinning Turn, or get off a Flying Press into an EX Pokémon.

This deck preyed on Lighting-type Pokémon such as Mega Manectric-EX while still being able to take on random threats like Klingklang. This deck came 2nd and 4th at the World Championships this year in the Senior Division. It was chosen because of how polarizing its matchups can be, and it surely came through for Xander.

This format was a very balanced one, with many 加布多 running around (both Trashalanche as well as Garbotoxin) coupled with BuzzRoc, Greninja, and the onslaught of Zoroark-GX decks that swarmed the World Championships that year. Buzzwole Garbodor was a very well-rounded meta counter that was aided by the then-recently-released Shrine of Punishment. It was very strongagainst decks like Turbo Rayquaza-GX, and for stacking damage into tanks like Zoroark-GX and Buzzwole-GX. Tapu Lele-GX was everywhere at this point and was a vital card in most decks.

This deck was entirely basedaround single Prize Card attackers that would poke the opponent and take cheap Prize Cards down the line. Sledgehammer turns were vital and oftentimes found the opponent playing many Items to combat the onslaught of 巴兹沃尔 that they faced. This would cause Trashalanche to do a lot of damage, especially when buffed by Choice Band and Shrine of Punishment. Beast Energy and Strong Energy were also a solid buff for this deck, allowing for key OHKOs with Swing Around. Ultimately this deck lost a mirror match to Magnus Pedersen’s Banette/Garbodor deck, which was able to punch Connor’s Pokémon for weakness while also possessing resistance.

This was arguably the most interesting pick from Xander’s first day - a deck that didn’t make Top 8 at the World Championships, but rather a deck that came Top 32 (I believe) and did so in quite a fringe manner. This deck is relatively inconsistent but possesses some MAJOR strengths that other decks in the format can’t really handle. First of all, NagQuag has an “unlimited” flow of energy, meaning it can regenerate and attach energy infinitely throughout the game, making this deck essentially immune to Crushing Hammer.

Secondly, many of the Pokémon in this format were weak to Water-types: Reshiram and Charizard TTGX, Blacephalon-GX, etc. There’s a lot to love that a single Prize Attacker in Quagsire can OHKO a three Prize Attacker! Keldeo-GX is also another factor that is difficult to push through with its Sacred Heart ability - it’s essentially a GX Pokémon with a Safeguard-style ability. This couldn’t be a better buff for the deck and surely won Xander many games.

I also just wanted to touch on the fact that this deck has a lot of weird cards that many decks didn’t play in this format. Cards such as Crushing Hammer and Blizzard Town must have proven difficult for many archetypes to handle. I’m unsure how this deck does against Mewtwo Toolbox, but surely it did well against the rest of the format (including the surprise Pidgey Control deck).

看来 Xander 在本届锦标赛中的策略是选择具有极强对抗性的套牌来对抗少数几款 Pokemon Online 套牌，而不是扩大元游戏。我喜欢看到他选择这些套牌，因为这些类型的套牌在设置时往往非常强大，但有时会略有不稳定。在像这样的小型锦标赛中，你可以负担得起这样的套牌，因为你只需要设置几次就可以赢得锦标赛。
