We are joined this week by San Antonio Regionals Top 8 Competitor Dan Hugar. He breaks down how he had success with his Lost Zone Giratina deck, some tips on how to play it, how he translated his Player Cup success to in person tournaments, and spends some time on the mental aspect of competing in the Pokemon TCG!

With San Antonio on the horizon and some interesting results from last week, Aneil & Ciaran dive into some San Antonio top picks as well as discuss implications from the successes last week. Additionally, in response to an "ask me anything" tweet put out earlier this week, they answer several listener questions in what ended up being the longest but most fun episode to date!

In this episode, Aneil and Ciaran have the GOAT debate. With Jason Klaczynski and Tord Reklev both having such dominant careers, who is the true GOAT? They also dive into some interesting decks that have emerged with the last week of results to try and figure out how they may shake up the meta along with how having the same format for multiple months on end may effect the game.

In this episode, Aneil and Ciaran dive into what happened last weekend at the regionals around the globe. Amongst these results were some really cool decks that are certainly worth taking a look at. In a time where big tourneys are at a bit of a pause, we can all take this time to have a breather and take a look at how this 5 month long metagame might evolve further.

In this episode, Aneil & Ciaran recap their deep runs at the Latin American International Championships featuring some spicy lists.
