Card Information: - Featured Trainer:N
There are ways around that, using cards like Squee, Goblin Nabob to discard meaningless cards or using other tricks like Stroke of Genius to draw extra cards that you can use to pay, but most people who played the Masticore played it fairly
But it quickly became apparent that getting max-value for a specific Pokemon card was to acquire near-mint to mint versions of high-margin cards and then send them in to get graded (which increases the value anywhere from 2-10x the raw or ungraded value of the card)
The same is true for Commander, often the player who has access to the most mana (through ramp) or more card advantage (through draw) or both together, will usually win
Of course, the biggest weakness to Crobat is that it's a Stage 2 Pokmon AND it requires Arceus to be a real threat
Love the menacing pose too
