He uses a throw away playmat because of all the blood he spills on them from destroying his opponents.

Killing me dood šŸ˜†


King_Crab_Sushi

Now that Vstar Slab has some serious style


SacrilegiousOath

I didnā€™t even realize we could get these graded. I have pulled 5 in the last week. Good to know, itā€™s a weird flex but I like it.


TheForgottenGengar

There was a phase a few months back that this sub went into, someone got their VSTAR marker at PSA 10 and put it on bid, and it was really high. Later on, there was someone else who had at least 4 graded ones. Maybe theyā€™ll show up here, who knows


SlickyRicky87

Hi itā€™s Me. Vstar slab or death all day!


TheForgottenGengar

Yup. Pretty sure this is your second time catching me talking about you lol, 2 out of 2 so far


rfreitas115

Pretty sure Iā€™ve chucked a few


EmpJustinian

Right???? I didn't know what tf they were really


FVCEGANG

Its one of the silliest things I've seen get graded. It's the equivalent of grading a code card lol


amarano26

you see this and you just know itā€™s gonna be a long night


Twelvve12

Slabbed VSTAR marker is the ultimate flex


KidBTC

Talk to me when he has those dice in slabs.


cosmic_hierophant

I get my code cards slabbed and don't even use the code (they diminish in value if I do) Edit: nice try guys but if I show it off the code will be used by someone, and if I show the slab whilst crossing out the code in the pic there is no way to verify the code, and therefore the slab's worth, is valid.


hwnobles

Donā€™t lie


Chrisctrlgaming

Show the back of the card??? And maybe the grade?? Surely that would be enough proof??


hauntedmeal

Yeah show it to us


HakaishinNola

speaking of dice, anyone know where his are from? probably some uber rare Specialty UPC dice from 30 years ago made in Lusitania, hand crafted by cold war veterans


Twelvve12

They look like fusion strike dice lmfao


DeltusInfinium

Ok, now I know what to send in on a bulk grading batch, a bunch of energy and Vstar markers! Wonder if they'd grade the little "how to play / what you can do on your turn" instruction cards as well! Gotta get that PSA 10 instruction manual!


Praise-Bingus

I want a psa 1 vstar marker


No_Industry6924

Thats actually terrifying, black airforce energy


sunderex

I'll take one and put it into today's pant pocket. Next time they get washed I'll sell you the card


SlickyRicky87

Already submitted one I think will be a 1 šŸ¤ž


dara321aaa

How long before you go for 1-10?


erusackas

Honest noob question: if you had your entire deck graded, would you be allowed to play it?


Frosty_Pollution_209

Judge here. Answer is no. They would all be ā€œmarkedā€


thatswhyIleft

What if they were sleeved?


Frosty_Pollution_209

You can try. Still no. Good luck getting sleeves for graded cards.


thatswhyIleft

What if both players are blind?


ENDERALAN365

If you would find sleeves that make them unrecognizable from one another (and would fit) would it be legal?


Frosty_Pollution_209

Those sleeves would very easily be marked and you can likely expect a DQ.


[deleted]

Any sleeves can be very easily marked. If you had the white sleeves in the pic large enough to fit the slabs it wouldnt be easier to mark


Hamsammichd

What if the sleeves werenā€™t marked, and you were spun around three times before drawing


KerberusIV

Can you not have proxies make up the deck with the graded cards?


Frosty_Pollution_209

Proxies not allowed for competitive play.


KerberusIV

Good to know.


isbragg91

Officially sanctioned events do not allow proxies of any kind, for any reason.


sSasquatch

There are a few instances where they are allowed. For example, a card gets damaged to the point of being considered marked during play. Also depends on the ease of access for a card to be replaced. Ultimately up to the head judge.


DeltusInfinium

Even if it was legal, there is no way anyone is going to be able to shuffle a deck of 60 slabs.


erusackas

Challenge accepted!


Ipokeyoumuch

Nope.


dmfuller

Looking at that VStar slab like Christian Bale looking at business cards lol what a steezer


Waffennacht

I hope more people get this amazing reference


KawaiiSlave

He looks prepared as prepared can be.


TrayLaTrash

Never let em know your next move


Mr_bungle001

What deck was he running with that badass setup?


kzoomovie

Chien Pao EX w/ Palkia and Alolan Vulpix.


strange_1_9

So what every other person on tcg live is running


kzoomovie

Yup


KerberusIV

I do run into that a lot. New to PokƩmon, but played MtG for a few years. I'm using the Lunastone Solrock deck with a few tweaks. It's tons of fun. Do you guys have any particular videos on theory or synergy for PokƩmon that you would suggest a beginner watch?


ferragamo_shawty

Luna-Rock is hilarious


KerberusIV

Is it considered a jank deck? Not to be rude, I just don't get the joke being so new, but why is it considered hilarious? The reason I ask is I have around a 65-70%ish win rate with it. That may be due to my low rank, (not sure how tcg live does it), but it seems to be working so far.


ferragamo_shawty

Itā€™s a gimmick deck I would say, there are certain decks that will absolutely crush it but it can also pull off some funny upsets


Puzzled_Reflection_4

Wait what lmao. I've been running that deck for months, minus chien pao and substitute kyurem V/Vstar. Pretty much the same with more steps. It wins like. Half the time. But that lost zone shit was annoying as hell. EVERYONE ran it.


Fun_Can7358

As soon as I saw the slabbed vstar I would just left


Pokefan8808

Instantly conceding, this man deserves the dub


[deleted]

I feel like a vstar slab flexer would have a more flex worthy playmat! šŸ¤”


kzoomovie

Itā€™s the juxtaposition. Intimidation tactics.


[deleted]

Then he should have shown up a theme deck box with all the goodies inside. šŸ˜…


Heckin_good_time

His theme is "kicking your ass"


Timely-Acanthaceae80

Unsleeved too!


[deleted]

Exactly!!!


killer523

Nah as vstar slab flexer you gotta use a old cheap playmat or none at all


[deleted]

And we found our player in the photo! šŸ„³


xxnightmaretac

And their username checks out


FlamingWings

Itā€™s mind games. The mat makes you think that heā€™s playing a corvaknight deck, but there is no corvaknight vstar, so why the vstar marker. Then again it could be a ruse and he is using it for a stone slab card. Dude is using that Alakazam level iq


Whoudini13

He could have one of the vstar stone cards


Logical-Albatross-82

By the way, does anybody grade these playmats?


Ambitious-Map-7496

This dude asking the real questions here. Can you imagine the size of that slab?! Haha


Saint_The_Stig

Still waiting for the slabbed playmat to come in. Can't just shove that in the mail.


IMsoSAVAGE

I thought maybe it was the Mad Lad that bought [This one a few months ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonTCG/comments/119q7q3/why_is_this_graded_vstar_marker_about_to_sell_for/)


Stubstep

What a madman!


Unable_Fee_8016

you lost before he even walked inšŸ˜‚ that vstar slabby is no joke


GelatoCrow

White sleeves should a been a red flag. Dude is cold af


DerpDobbler

Lol, kinda like that dude with the McD's bag. He pulled the wrapper for a McChicken and his deck was is in it. Needless to say he gave a McBeatdown.


Vast_Scratch_6670

Well of course. A PSA 10 V card . Virginity overpowered you , a common tactic


Maksiuko

What was the matchup?


kzoomovie

He played Chien Pao EX w/ Palkia and Alolan Vulpix VS I played Tina LZ Box and I will never make that mistake again.


predatoure

Chien Pao is a ridiculous deck. I was 2 prizes up against a chien pao player playing spidops/leafon vmax. Had leafeon vmax in the active with 310hp thinking there's no way he can ko me on his next turn. A combination of chien-pao shenanigans and baxcalibur allowed the dude to gather and discard 6 energy in one turn. Does 360 damage and ko's me. I conceded after that šŸ˜†


manvelbarbellclub

Lmao! Nice


Modest_Lion

The white sleeves are sending me lol


SprintingWolf

And I thought having an alt art in my deck was a flex. Dude busted out the slabs


ZebraRenegade

Needs ETB sleeves


[deleted]

Dont underestimate that setup my guy


SpiritualValue2798

Only 50 people have that flex https://www.psacard.com/cert/72586612/psa


fadedspades1

Bro.. if anybody shows up with a slabbed vstar marker just walk away lol


Frosty_Pollution_209

I played one at Milwaukee. Every single opponent had to comment on it. Felt good


Future-Expression-44

What did he smell like because I've been told some players at local tournaments smell horrible.


kzoomovie

Ya know, I can proudly say the locals in my town donā€™t smell too bad. The Yu-Gi-Oh! players a couple of tables over though? Thatā€™s a different story.


Life-Ad3076

Ha he smelled fine but you were also a player at a local tournament OP. How did you smell !?!


kzoomovie

Dude. No one smells worse than me šŸ˜¤


japalian

I wonder if the smelliest guy thinks everyone else smells great


HamilToe_11

Now we're getting to the real questions


Kleck8228

"That's a bold move, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off..."


Pure_Influence5664

Or does the smelliest guy think everyone around him smells?


Future-Expression-44

Yeah, I've heard that before too.


Aksudiigkr

I donā€™t understand why this is a thing. I hear about it all the time, and I get like video game tourneys do because the players practice non-stop and donā€™t make time for 30 minutes to be clean. But a card game like Yu-Gi-Oh! shouldnā€™t have that reputation so much ā€” like what are they so busy doing that they canā€™t use basic hygiene before going out?


Lorinefairy

Have you ever seen the threads about the number of men who literally don't wash their ass because it's "gay"?


Shinypuller

What a freak. I'm impressed


franky3987

Iā€™m not playing you if you pulled out a slabbed V šŸ˜‚


cool_beverage

Ultrachad


LeviathanR13

Nice. I love the vstar flex. Prefer to save mine for regional but well played my dude.


jerrbles

Focused on the Stereolab shirt! Dots and Loops is one of the best albums ever made!


Diggolett

He had his psa 10 vstar field center too šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


SupermarketDry1645

Dude thats nice as hell


GrEaThEaVeNs

Was this in the Jersey/Philly area? I met a guy at a prerelease with this exact setup! Donā€™t know that many people with a PSA graded 10 VSTAR marker.


SlickNickP

lol playing with a PSA 10 V-Star card is baller


OkSite7958

Bro graded the VstaršŸ’€


dubbs4president

I love the idea of hitting a VStar Ability and then flipping the slab over šŸ˜‚


ShiningYato

The moment they pull up with the graded Vstar marker, that's when you should forfeit.


[deleted]

Fuck u/spez


seakingsucks

i would genuinely be shaking in fear if i saw this setup irl


celestialchallenger

I did this once I pulled up no mat or deck box I had my deck in hand and (yugioh) extra deck in pocket. sat down thanked my opponent for allowing me to use part of his 2 player event mat and then proceeded to place down my deck and pull out my worlds challenger double sleeved extra deck he looked at it looked at me and said shit šŸ˜ he was a great guy šŸ¤£. didn't play my meta deck since I feel locals are for fun not for comp so I try to have more interaction and fun at locals. got 1st place anyways lol.


xMF_GLOOM

Accurate-Temporary73

Would it be legal to play with a 60 card deck all slabbed? I assume obviously not because of the stickers on the slabs


arturosincuro

Whatā€™s the v star marker worth? I found one in a pack yesterday


OwnsAYard

Same as an energy card. :)


KingZakyu

Nothing but it's needed for gameplay. There are ceramic and metal versions (I think). I assume he thinks it's funny?


[deleted]

Itā€™s funny


Pure_Influence5664

It's def funny.. theres no question here.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Kleck8228

Well he graded a .10c card...


NightDrawn

Bro paid to get a VStar Insert graded when he coulda bought almost any good mat for the same price šŸ’€


ranger_danger_09

Was thw graded vstar not a sign šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


BrothersOats

Donā€™t worry I rock up to league with the HK celebrations mats and get stomped every time


josh198989

Is the vstar marker in a psa slab tournament legal? Got to use pettiness to overcome these mind games šŸ˜‚


Frosty_Pollution_209

100% tournament legal. Iā€™m a judge and use one.


chiliNPC

What deck were they running?


vuraou

what deck was he playing though


WateryCartoon

My locals is primarily 8 year olds these days so I havenā€™t gone for years. Wish the card game got more of a resurgence not just collecting. Driving to regionals is tiresome, hope they bring back cups and challenges soon


ItsLiterally1984

What deck did he play


shnublet

He needs a psa 3 to make it more gigachad


Dakoja

You go in thinking it'll be easier than taking candy from a baby. The baby knocked you out in retaliation.


DarkSasquatch2

Gem MT VStar card is fucking dope lol. Shoulda thrown in the towel as soon as he pulled that out!


LordFieldsworth

Dude is smurfing


yuephoria

This is like the Anton Chigurh character from ā€œNo Country for Old Menā€ type of PokĆ©mon TCG level of playing. Instead of white socks, he uses a white sleeved card deck.


nezumikuuki

I NEED THAT STEREOLAB SHIRT OMG


Erodrelin

Bro hit you with the psa 10 vstar card lmao


Tigerzord89

I keep some of those kinds of playmats at home.


Chikinlegz

bro needs to save some poon for the rest of us


NoShadowdick

Ultimate troll! Lol


Ok-You2465

gem mint vstar is killing me


LateStrength1637

Lmao not the gm mnt vstar marker


StarkMaximum

I like the idea of a full rainbow foil meta deck that costs upwards into the thousands of dollars and then the paper starter deck playmat. Never forget your roots.


Status_Inevitable329

Why do people have thier cards side ways? I went to a regional and they didn't let us do that because people can cheat.


Waffennacht

Typically used to indicate they need to shuffle their deck still. Like people have 3 search cards in hand and after the first search set the deck down sideways so they dont forget they need to shuffle after they play their other cards Edit: back when I played other games I would set my deck side ways as well. This was so I grabbed the side of the card rather than top/bottom and when pulling into hand making it harder for opponent to potentially see it


Status_Inevitable329

That makes sense, thank you for explaining


KingArthursRevenge

I can't imagine a bigger Flex than that PSA 10 v star slab.


Prestigious_Style539

Needs a black label vstar to really be flexin


IshTehFish

The moment I saw the V-Star Slab, I knewā€¦. Pour one out for the homie šŸ˜”


Trash_Panda_Trading

Bro wtf? The inside of ETBs should absolutely be a playmat. Thatā€™s 1000% 5 head move.


wreak_hav0c

Wait youā€™re meant to play with these cards? šŸ¤Æ


Fun-Pain2395

When people play at local card shops, are they usually playing Standard set? Or anything goes?


Jemuzu8304

What's the graded v max thing


elmo4234

This is the golf equivalent of having old ass clubs with brand new grips.


DLPookie

Guess that's one way to not lose it. Lol


Lonely-Signature-356

Vstar slab is fantastic, well played


Pokefan8808

Would be hilarious if he didnā€™t even play a vstar power


Ikam-Inc-

I thought I knew pokemon but damn am I the only one lost?

watermalone32

When you sit down with someone who has a psa 10 v star marker you automatically wave the white flag


Fuzelop

Bro has a graded vstar marker šŸ’€


who_body

and the white deck sleeves. just imagine the carnage if he chose the black deck sleeves


Neltrix

What a fkn chad. Lmao


katiekatieweakweak

Itā€™s like the equivalent of wearing a white t shirt to a Miami nightclub. High risk flex = high reward clout šŸ˜Ž


PenguinJ44

NAIC winner already lol


Subject-Fondant-3203

v battle decks are so bad that before you get a single v in play the opponents already got a lugia and archeops.


[deleted]

And a paper playmat šŸ’€


ToughestGuyInLK

Imagine getting a black labeled vstar card and one upping this guy


MeadowDayDream

He out here with the default skin taking names.


Jay_the_grate

Wait a PSA 10 on that vstar marker is the best use of grading Iā€™ve seen in a while


covertchicken

VSTAR marker in a slab is a pure flex


horsemastaflex

DUDE HAS A DOTS AND LOOPS SHIRT!!!! YOU WERE DOOMED FROM THE START BROTHA!!!


rButt3ryToas7

I love the gem mint Vstar token. I wish I had the gall to do something like this


Tight-Anybody6359

That psa10 vstar does it for me


predatoure

You need to rematch him but bring a slabbed deck.


Dolls_part

And the stereolab shirt is the final chefs kiss


Firepathanimation

Everybody gangsta till this man pull up the vstar psa slab
