Hey everyone! Last week I was able to win the 2019 Greensboro Regional Championships using Drampa Garbodor. This deck has seen many great successes in the past but has been able to fly under the radar of most players this season. I want to share my experiences with the deck, my reason for playing it, and some advice for anyone interesting in picking up the deck for League Cups or Regionals in the future.
I originally wasn’t going to play in this event but changed my mind the day before. Nothing sounds better than trying to figure out the meta in one day, right?
After looking at what did well in Toronto, I operated on a few assumptions:
- The meta was unlikely going to see a crazy shift due to the lack of time between tournaments.
- PikaRom was still going to be popular due to its power, but its counters would also see play.
- ZoroGarb would see an uptick due to results and its solid match up spread.
- Archies was going to be a top contender for best deck in the format.
