This was full odds btw, not Sneak Peak.
How do Solgaleo decks work? I pulled two back to back the other day but recently dropped pocket for mtg arena and have fully lost the pulse of the meta

Basically you run two single point attackers like Skarm.
Then you have:
Solgaleo x2
Cosmoem x 1 (maybe 2, but this seems less good)
Cosmog x2
Prof Oak x2
Pokeball x2
Rare Candy x2
And whatever smattering of support, items and tools you want. I run a poison barb, rocky helmet, and 2 giant capes. For supporters I like having one each of Lillie, Sabrina, and Cyrus.
The gist is you set cosmog down in the back, evolve to Solgaleo with rare candies, use Rising Road to bring Sol to your active spot for free, and start throwing out 120 attacks on turn 3-4.
Ideally you also evolve the other Solgaleo and can finish up with them or Skarm/Farfetch’d/whoever.
I really wish decks were a bit bigger in this game. It's fun enough, but strategies feel so restricted by needing to pack in all the essential cards like Prof, pokeballs, Sabrina etc.
Still tho, I appreciate the breakdown and look forward to crushing with my nuclear kitties. Thanks, dude!
Yeah, what they said.
They are very popular in ranked ATM. How effective they are is down to lucky draws and how well you understand the current meta decks you'll face with it. Lots of potential for glory or heartbreak.
Have to run into any oricorio decks?
Several of the CG: Solgaleo type, none of the others. They aren't usually fast enough to be a threat but with a bad start and bad draws they can still make you feel like a chump.
Congrats, and good luck with it!
It's my current main deck. Its a very agressive card.
I was a big fan of Pikachu EX because it set up so fast and wreck basic mons and this feels similar to it.
