Firstly, thank you for making us your Leader's Choice of the month! We hope everyone's been enjoying the tier so far, and we're excited to see what the month brings! We've got our day one bans rolled out!
have all proven to be problems in the tier. Forcing a Steel type, usually Kingambit or Corviknight, that you wouldn't otherwise want to include on a team, all three are powerful, dangerous threats that have proven too much for TCG.
benefits from a very strong Dragon/Psychic type combination, a spectacular speed stat, great mixed offenses and a great movepool to boot. It outspeeds the entire unboosted metagame, and with it's versatile combination of offensive and support moves, Dragapult proved to be too much for the TCG metagame and has been banned.
initially flew under the radar, but has come with a vengeance to terrorize the tier. Sporting a versatile stat distribution and a movepool with everything it needs to answer the majority of the checks in the tier, Roaring Moon has incredibly versatility. In between it's powerful Dragon Dance sweeper set, Choice Item cleaners, and a scary Tera Normal Acrobatics set with the aid of Booster Energy, Roaring Moon has proved too much for the tier and has been banned.
embodies everything that made Dragons broken at the start of the tier: High BP moves, a great type combination, phenomenal coverage and powerful set versatility with few reliable answers. For many of the same reasons as threats like Noivern and Hydreigon, Salamence has been BANNED from the tier.
We have also implemented Terastal Clause. Terastalization is a powerful tool in TCG, with the limited type chart. It is much easier for you to Terastalize into a type that completely demolishes your checks-- the Dragons were a perfect example of this, but not the only one. The rich get richer, with threats like Volcarona being prime examples. Alternatively, Terastal can turn a losing situation into a winning one with a defensive Tera. Tera, in this case, rewards improper and poor play. Terastalization made it too hard to reliably answer some offensive threats while also making it impossible for others to progress, and the council has moved to BAN it.
