Can Marnie’s Grimmsnarl ex Stop the Best Decks and Win Worlds?
Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl ex 能否阻止最好的套牌并赢得世界冠军？

Hello, PokeBeach readers! Gabriel Semedo here again with another Pokemon TCG article. This time, I want to talk about Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex and how this deck has a solid chance of beating the two best decks in the format — Dragapult ex and Gardevoir ex— giving it a real shot at reaching the top tables of the most important Pokemon TCG tournament, the World Championships at Anaheim happening in August.
您好，PokeBeach 读者！Gabriel Semedo 再次来到这里，发表了另一篇 Pokemon TCG 文章。这一次，我想谈谈 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任，以及这副套牌如何很有可能击败该赛制中最好的两副套牌—— Dragapult ex 和 Gardevoir ex——让它真正有机会进入最重要的 Pokemon TCG 锦标赛的顶级选手，即 8 月在阿纳海姆举行的世界锦标赛。

I usually come up with the article title after finishing the content, but this time I already knew what it would be. Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex's favorable matchups against Gardevoir ex and Dragapult ex are just too good. Another reason I felt compelled to write about Grimmsnarl is that, even though it performs well against the format's top two decks, I still found it difficult to consider it on par with other Tier 1 contenders. Raging Bolt ex has a good matchup against Grimmsnarl and can be considered a Tier 1 deck alongside Gardevoir and Dragapult. But theoretically, having two favorable matchups and one tough one isn’t that bad. Here in the West, we’ve only seen Grimmsnarl shine in one major tournament — the North America International Championships — where the deck had a decent showing, partially confirming its already demonstrated potential. However, in my view, it still performed below expectations.
我通常在完成内容后想出文章标题，但这次我已经知道它会是什么了。Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任与 Gardevoir ex 和 Dragapult ex 的有利对决实在是太好了。我觉得有必要写 Grimmsnarl 的另一个原因是，即使它在对抗赛制的前两副套牌时表现不错，我还是觉得很难认为它与其他 1 级竞争者相提并论。Raging Bolt ex 与 Grimmsnarl 的对决很不错，可以被视为与 Gardevoir 和 Dragapult 一起的 1 级套牌。但从理论上讲，有两场有利的对决和一场艰难的对决并没有那么糟糕。在西方，我们只在一场大型锦标赛——北美国际锦标赛——中看到 Grimmsnarl 大放异彩，这副套牌的表现还不错，部分证实了它已经展示出的潜力。然而，在我看来，它的表现仍然低于预期。

Before Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex came into the picture, many believed Gardevoir ex's competitive run was over. But what we saw at NAIC was a matchup that played out close to 50/50. A decent Gardevoir player might struggle against Grimmsnarl, but top Gardevoir players who succeeded had a specific strategy in place. Additionally, despite being the fourth most popular deck in Day 2 of the competition, Grimmsnarl had relatively few Top 64 appearances, indicating the deck faced several other challenges in the metagame.
在 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任出现之前，许多人认为 Gardevoir 前任的竞争已经结束。但我们在 NAIC 看到的是一场接近 50/50 的对决。一个体面的 Gardevoir 玩家可能会与 Grimmsnarl 作斗争，但成功的顶级 Gardevoir 玩家有一个特定的策略。此外，尽管 Grimmsnarl 是比赛第 2 天最受欢迎的套牌，但进入前 64 强的套牌相对较少，这表明该套牌在赛场主流中还面临着其他几个挑战。

Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex's biggest advantage, as I mentioned, lies in its favorable matchups against Gardevoir ex and Dragapult ex. The issue, however, is that — beyond Raging Bolt — it also struggles against lesser-played decks in the metagame, such as Joltik Box, Eevee Box, and Toedscruel ex. In massive tournaments like NAIC and Japan Nationals, which attract around 4,000 players, the deck diversity is immense. Even though Gardevoir and Dragapult are the top two decks, chances are you’ll face each of them only once or twice. In other words, if you play nine rounds and encounter them in only half, that still might not be enough. It's also entirely normal to lose to Gardy and Pult. What I’m saying is, beating the two best decks often isn’t enough — you also need to perform well against Tier 2 decks. Especially in the current format, where the gap between Tier 1 and Tier 2 isn’t all that wide.
正如我提到的，Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl ex 的最大优势在于它与 Gardevoir ex 和 Dragapult ex 的有利对决。然而，问题在于——除了 Raging Bolt——它也在赛场主流中与较少使用的套牌作斗争，例如 Joltik Box、Eevee Box 和 Toedscruel ex。在吸引约 4,000 名玩家的 NAIC 和 Japan Nationals 等大型锦标赛中，套牌的多样性是巨大的。尽管 Gardevoir 和 Dragapult 是前两副牌，但您很可能只会面对它们一两次。换句话说，如果你玩了九轮并且只在一半内遇到它们，那可能仍然不够。输给 Gardy 和 Pult 也是完全正常的。我想说的是，经常击败两副最好的套牌是不够的——你还需要在对抗 2 级套牌时表现出色。尤其是在目前的赛制中，1 级和 2 级之间的差距并不大。

It’s this blend of notable strengths and weaknesses that inspired me to write today’s article about Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex. Not only is it the most recent deck to break into Tier 1, but it’s also one that still raises a lot of questions for me. Of course, if I’m choosing a deck to win the World Championships, it must at least have even or favorable matchups against Gardevoir ex and Dragapult ex. But I also need to know exactly what price I’m paying for that. In today’s article, I’ll break down the Grimmsnarl list I’m currently using, based on inspiration from both the NAIC and Japan Nationals lists.
正是这种显着优点和缺点的混合激发了我今天写关于 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任的文章。它不仅是最近闯入 1 级的套牌，而且它仍然给我带来了很多问题。当然，如果我要选择一副套牌来赢得世界冠军，它至少必须与 Gardevoir ex 和 Dragapult ex 有势均力敌或有利的对决。但我也需要确切地知道我为此付出了什么代价。在今天的文章中，我将根据 NAIC 和 Japan Nationals 名单的灵感，分解我目前正在使用的 Grimmsnarl 名单。

Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex Deck List
Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex 牌组列表

Card Explanation  卡片说明

Two Grimmsnarl ex  两个 Grimmsnarl ex

In the first Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex lists I saw from Japan, it was common to use a 4-2-3 Grimmsnarl ex line. But over time, players realised that this wasn’t really necessary. In practice, the Grimmsnarl deck is more of a Froslass / Munkidori deck, with Grimmsnarl ex acting as a powerful tech option. In many matchups, you actually play it like a regular Froslass deck — chipping away with damage, using Munkidori to move damage counters to your opponent's Pokemon, and locking the opponent out with Maractus and Budew.
在我从日本看到的第一个 Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex 列表中，通常使用 4-2-3 Grimmsnarl ex line。但随着时间的推移，玩家意识到这并不是真正必要的。在实践中，Grimmsnarl 套牌更像是 Froslass / Munkidori 套牌，而 Grimmsnarl ex 是一个强大的技术选择。在许多对决中，你实际上就像普通的 Froslass 套牌一样玩它——减少伤害，使用 Munkidori 将伤害指示物移动到对手的口袋妖怪，并用 Maractus 和 Budew 将对手锁定在外面。

Four Munkidori

This Pokemon is so strong that the entire format practically revolves around it, and decks that can maximise Munkidori’s potential tend to perform the best. Gardevoir ex initially used only one copy, but now the NAIC champion's list runs four. Froslass / Munkidori is another deck fully centered on utilizing Munkidori's Abilities, but it lacked a strong attacker — something Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex now provides.
这只口袋妖怪非常强大，以至于整个赛制几乎都围绕着它展开，而能够最大限度地发挥 Munkidori 潜力的套牌往往表现最好。Gardevoir ex 最初只使用了一份副本，但现在 NAIC 冠军名单有四个。Froslass / Munkidori 是另一副完全以利用 Munkidori 的能力为中心的套牌，但它缺乏强大的攻击者——Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任现在提供了这一点。

Two Froslass  两个 Froslass

There are matchups where you’ll rely on Munkidori as a defensive tool to clean up chip damage from Gardevoir ex and Dragapult ex. But in others, you’ll need to actively deal damage so your Munkidori can be effective. The matchups where you’ll lean on Froslass are mainly those where Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex can’t do the heavy lifting — such as Raging Bolt ex, Joltik Box, and Gholdengo ex — as well as matchups where you plan to use Technical Machine: Devolution, like against Dragapult ex and Charizard ex.
在有些比赛中，您将依靠 Munkidori 作为防御工具来清理 Gardevoir ex 和 Dragapult ex 的芯片损坏。但在其他情况下，您需要积极造成伤害，这样您的 Munkidori 才能有效。您将依赖 Froslass 的对决主要是那些 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任无法完成繁重工作的对决——例如 Raging Bolt ex、Joltik Box 和 Gholdengo ex——以及您计划使用 Technical Machine： Devolution 的对决，例如对付 Dragapult ex 和 Charizard ex。

One Maractus  一个 Maractus

Maractus is used to trap your opponent’s Pokemon in the Active Spot, giving Froslass and Munkidori an opportunity to Knock Out targets on your opponent's Bench. Against Raging Bolt ex, locking Latias ex for a turn or two can make a critical difference.
Maractus 用于将对手的口袋妖怪困在活动点，让 Froslass 和 Munkidori 有机会击倒对手替补席上的目标。对付 Raging Bolt ex，锁定 Latias ex 一两个回合可以产生关键的不同。

One Budew

Earlier Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex lists included up to three copies of Budew, and now we’re seeing lists scale that back to just one. This reflects how the metagame has evolved. Opponents are already aware you’ll be abusing Item lock, so they’re building lists with more Supporters and often including at least one Munkidori to counter your strategy. Still, I think it's important to include one Budew to punish opponents who start poorly. In the mid-to-late game, Budew can also buy you extra turns when your opponent doesn't do much — each of these turns lets Froslass stack more damage and gives Munkidori more opportunities to move damage counters and score Knock Outs.
早些时候，Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任列表最多包含三份 Budew，现在我们看到列表将其缩减回仅一份。这反映了赛场主流的演变。对手已经知道你会滥用物品锁定，所以他们正在建立包含更多支持者的列表，并且通常至少包括一个 Munkidori 来对抗你的策略。尽管如此，我认为包括一个 Budew 来惩罚开局不佳的对手是很重要的。在游戏中后期，当你的对手没有做太多事情时，Budew 还可以为你购买额外的回合——这些回合中的每一个回合都可以让 Froslass 积累更多伤害，并让 Munkidori 有更多机会移动伤害计数器和获得 Knock Outs。

One Shaymin  一个 Shaymin

This Pokemon is important in two key matchups: against Gardevoir ex and in the Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex mirror. Against Gardevoir, Scream Tail can't KO your Benched Pokemon. And in the mirror, Marnie's Grimmsnarl's 30 damage can make a huge difference when trying to KO your opponent’s Benched Pokemon. Besides the 30 damage you would get without including Shaymin, you’ll likely have one or two Munkidori in play — totaling 90 damage on your Bench, not even counting what Froslass contributes.
这只口袋妖怪在两个关键的对决中很重要：对阵 Gardevoir ex 和 Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex 镜子。对阵 Gardevoir，Scream Tail 无法 KO 你的 Benched Pokemon。在镜子里，Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 的 30 点伤害可以在尝试 KO 对手的 Benched Pokemon 时产生巨大的影响。除了不包括 Shaymin 的情况下你会得到的 30 点伤害外，你还可能会有一两个 Munkidori 在游戏中——你的板凳上总共有 90 点伤害，甚至不算 Froslass 的贡献。

One Tatsugiri  1 个 Tatsugiri

This deck can’t afford to run Fezandipiti ex or Mew ex, as leaving them on the field would be practically suicidal —Froslass would end up damaging them. Tatsugiri also has an Ability and takes damage from Froslass, but it’s searchable via Artazon and Buddy-Buddy Poffin, and most importantly, it’s a single-Prize Pokemon.
这副套牌负担不起 Fezandipiti ex 或 Mew ex，因为把他们留在场上几乎是自杀——Froslass 最终会伤害他们。Tatsugiri 也有能力并受到 Froslass 的伤害，但它可以通过 Artazon 和 Buddy-Buddy Poffin 搜索，最重要的是，它是一个单奖口袋妖怪。

One Iron Bundle  1 个 Iron Bundle

In my early Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex testing, I quickly saw how important Iron Bundle could be — mainly because this deck doesn’t use Boss's Orders (Ghetsis) often. The deck lacks any significant draw engine, so your Supporter for the turn usually needs to help you draw cards instead.
在我早期的 Marnie's Grimmsnarl 前测试中，我很快就看到了 Iron Bundle 的重要性——主要是因为这副牌不经常使用 Boss 的命令（Ghetsis）。 这副套牌没有任何重要的抓牌引擎，所以你的辅助在回合通常需要帮你抓牌。

One Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex
一个血月乌尔萨卢纳前任

To round out the Pokemon lineup, Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex was my final addition to the list, but I now see it as just as important as the other tech options. Its attack deals 60 more damage to the opponent’s Active Pokemon than Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex, and that’s a huge deal when it comes to KO’ing Stage 2 Pokemon like Dragapult ex or Charizard ex with help from Munkidori. Plus, in matchups like Raging Bolt and Joltik Box, Ursaluna is key for scoring surprise Knock Outs on Basic Pokemon ex — something Grimmsnarl ex can’t do effectively.
为了完善 Pokemon 阵容，Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex 是我最后添加到列表中的列表，但我现在认为它与其他技术选项一样重要。它的攻击对对方的主动口袋妖怪造成的伤害比 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl ex 多 60 点，在 Munkidori 的帮助下，这对于 Dragapult ex 或 Charizard ex 等第 2 阶段口袋妖怪来说是一件大事。此外，在 Raging Bolt 和 Joltik Box 等对决中，Ursaluna 是在 Basic Pokemon ex 上获得惊喜 Knock Outs 的关键——这是 Grimmsnarl ex 无法有效做到的。

Four Arven, Four Iono, and Three Professor’s Research
4 个 Arven、4 个 Iano 和 3 个教授的研究

This is the deck’s complete draw Supporter lineup, and I don’t have much to add here. Arven is the best early-game Supporter for setup; Professor's Research is great when you need a lot of resources all at once; and Iono offers similar value while adding the bonus of a disruptive effect in the late game.
这是这副套牌完整的抽牌 Supporter 阵容，我在这里没有太多要补充的。Arven 是游戏早期最好的 Supporter;当您同时需要大量资源时，Professor's Research 非常棒;和 Iono 提供类似的价值，同时在游戏后期增加了破坏性效果的奖励。

One Boss’s Orders  一个 Boss 的命令

This is a deck where you already get to choose where to place your damage thanks to Munkidori, so in theory, you don’t really miss the effect of Boss’s Orders. However, the meta is evolving, and with everyone now using Munkidori, it’s no longer that easy to KO exactly what you want using only Abilities.
多亏了 Munkidori，在这个套牌中，您已经可以选择在哪里放置伤害，因此从理论上讲，您不会真正错过 Boss 命令的效果。然而，元数据正在发展，现在每个人都在使用 Munkidori，仅使用 Abilities 就可以准确地 KO 你想要的东西不再那么容易。

Most lists I’ve looked at typically run one copy of Boss’s Orders and two copies of Counter Catcher— which makes perfect sense to me. You’ll usually use Counter Catcher in your worst matchups, like against Raging Bolt ex and Joltik Box, which are designed to rush for Prizes without wasting time on setup. Boss’s Orders, on the other hand, shines in matchups with slower setup — like Gardevoir ex, Dragapult ex, and Charizard ex— where opponents can’t grab quick Prizes. Depending on the decks I expect to face most at Worlds, I might swap the counts and play two copies of Boss’s Orders and just one Counter Catcher.
我看过的大多数列表通常运行一份 Boss's Orders 和两份 Counter Catcher ——这对我来说非常有意义。您通常会在最糟糕的对决中使用 Counter Catcher，例如对抗 Raging Bolt ex 和 Joltik Box，它们旨在冲刺奖品而不会在设置上浪费时间。另一方面，Boss 的命令在设置较慢的对局中大放异彩——比如 Gardevoir ex、Dragapult ex 和 Charizard ex——对手无法快速获得奖品。根据我最期待在世界赛中面对的套牌，我可能会交换计数并使用两张 Boss 的订单和一张 Counter Catcher。

One Secret Box  一个秘密盒子

This ACE SPEC has become the go-to for decks with poor draw power. With just a single card, you can fix multiple setup issues. But in Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex’s case specifically, Secret Box gives you access to the deck’s most crucial card: Spikemuth Gym. All four cards you can search with Secret Box are incredibly useful in this deck’s strategy. This might be the deck that gets the most out of this card.
这把 ACE SPEC 已经成为抽牌能力差的套牌的首选。只需一张卡，您就可以修复多个设置问题。但具体到 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任的情况下，Secret Box 可让您访问这副牌中最重要的卡牌：Spikemuth Gym。您可以使用 Secret Box 搜索的所有四张卡牌在此套牌的策略中非常有用。这可能是最能利用这张牌的牌组。

Two Buddy-Buddy Poffin  两个 Buddy-Buddy Poffin

This is probably the scariest part of the list: the lack of consistent Item-based search. You're running just two of this Item card, with the hope of hitting at least one through your first-turn Arven play. The rest of your setup depends on your Stadium cards and Technical Machine: Evolution.
这可能是列表中最可怕的部分：缺乏一致的基于项目的搜索。你只使用两张这张物品卡，希望在你的第一回合 Arven 游戏中至少击中一张。其余的设置取决于您的 Stadium 卡和 Technical Machine： Evolution。

One Ultra Ball  一个 Ultra Ball

It’s crucial to include at least one Item that can fetch the Pokemon you need. As good as Spikemuth Gym is, it’s a Stadium and you can't search for it easily.
至少包含一个可以获取您需要的 Pokemon 的项目至关重要。尽管 Spikemuth Gym 很好，但它是一个体育场，你不能轻易搜索它。

One Rare Candy  一颗稀有糖果

Some lists run two copies of Rare Candy; others just one. Based on my experience, I’ve found that a single copy is enough — mainly because this isn’t a full-on Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex deck. It’s more of a Froslass / Munkidori deck that includes Grimmsnarl. The matchups where you really need Grimmsnarl are usually slower setups or ones where the opponent is applying Item lock, which already restricts you from using Rare Candy early on.
一些列表运行两份 Rare Candy;其他人只有一个。根据我的经验，我发现一份就足够了——主要是因为这不是一副完整的 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前套牌。它更像是一副包含 Grimmsnarl 的 Froslass / Munkidori 套牌。您真正需要 Grimmsnarl 的对决通常是较慢的设置或对手应用物品锁定的对决，这已经限制了您尽早使用 Rare Candy。

One Earthen Vessel  一个陶器

You’ll want a way to search for Energy cards via Arven — but the choice often comes down to Earthen Vessel vs. Energy Search. In this case, I’m going with Earthen Vessel for one simple reason: consistency.
您需要一种方法来通过 Arven 搜索能量卡——但选择通常归结为土器与能量搜索 。在这种情况下，我选择 Earthen Vessel 的原因很简单：一致性。

In the Dragapult ex deck, I opted for Energy Search because I rarely needed two Energies at once — Drakloak’s draw power usually fetched the rest. Plus, the discard cost could be painful, since that deck already runs four copies of Ultra Ball, which discard a lot of cards on their own.
在 Dragapult ex 套牌中，我选择了能量搜索，因为我很少同时需要两个能量——Drakloak 的抽牌能力通常会获得其余的。此外，丢弃费用可能很痛苦，因为该套牌已经运行了四个 Ultra Ball 副本，它们会自己丢弃很多牌。

In this Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex deck, you don’t have that kind of draw consistency. Finding a second Energy card for your next Munkidori isn’t guaranteed. Also, pulling two Energies out of the deck helps thin it, which improves your chances of drawing into other crucial cards. In a less consistent deck, you need to pay even more attention to small optimisations like this. And here, the discard cost isn’t that punishing — since you’re only running one Ultra Ball. In fact, it might even help by letting you discard a useless card.
在这副 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前套牌中，你没有那种抓牌的一致性。不能保证为您的下一个 Munkidori 找到第二张 Energy 卡。此外，从牌组中抽出两个能量有助于稀释它，从而提高您抽到其他重要卡牌的机会。在不太一致的套牌中，您需要更加注意像这样的小优化。在这里，弃牌费用并没有那么惩罚——因为你只运行一个 Ultra Ball。事实上，它甚至可能通过让您丢弃一张无用的卡牌来提供帮助。

One Switch  一个开关

This is one way my list differs from most others — very few include a copy of Switch. In theory, the deck doesn’t need it. Its mobility is decent enough. But if your opponent manages to use Corner from Maractus or inflicts Confusion on your Pokemon with Munkidori — your Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex deck could run into serious issues.
这是我的列表与大多数其他列表不同的一个方面——很少有包含 Switch 的副本。理论上，这副牌不需要它。它的机动性足够不错。但是，如果你的对手设法使用 Maractus 的 Corner 或使用 Munkidori 对你的口袋妖怪造成困惑——你的 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前套牌可能会遇到严重的问题。

When Grimmsnarl loses to Gardevoir ex, it’s often because of Munkidori, which has a 50% chance of stopping Grimmsnarl from attacking. Yes, you can retreat and send up another attacker, but it’s not always easy in practice. That usually requires two Grimmsnarl ex in play, and without an Air Balloon, each retreat discards precious Energy. With Switch, you only need one Grimmsnarl on the field, and you save those resources.
当 Grimmsnarl 输给 Gardevoir ex 时，通常是因为 Munkidori，它有 50% 的机会阻止 Grimmsnarl 的攻击。是的，你可以撤退并派出另一个攻击者，但在实践中并不总是那么容易。这通常需要两个 Grimmsnarl ex 在场，如果没有气球 ，每次撤退都会丢弃宝贵的能量。使用 Switch，您只需要在场上有一个 Grimmsnarl，就可以节省这些资源。

Switch also improves overall mobility — it makes it easier to pivot Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex or use Tatsugiri during the match.
Switch 还提高了整体机动性——它使在比赛中更容易旋转 Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex 或使用 Tatsugiri。

Two Super Rod  二超级杆

Most lists run two copies of Night Stretcher and just one Super Rod. I chose to cut Night Stretcher and include a second copy of Super Rod instead. Night Stretcher is obviously strong, but I needed to free up space in the list. I also believe the Stadium cards help enhance the utility of Super Rod — Artazon and Spikemuth Gym can search nearly all your Pokemon, except Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex. Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex’s Ability can search for Energy, so the biggest drawback of Super Rod compared to Night Stretcher — returning cards to the deck instead of the hand — isn’t such a big deal here.
大多数列表都有两份 Night Stretcher 和一份 Super Rod。我选择删减 Night Stretcher 并加入第二个 Super Rod 副本。Night Stretcher 显然很强大，但我需要在列表中释放空间。我也相信体育场卡有助于增强 Super Rod 的实用性——Artazon 和 Spikemuth Gym 几乎可以搜索你所有的口袋妖怪，除了 Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex。Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl ex's Ability 可以搜索能量，所以与 Night Stretcher 相比，Super Rod 的最大缺点——将卡片放回牌组而不是手上——在这里没什么大不了的。

One Counter Catcher  一个反捕手

In today’s meta, most players want their opponent to take the first Prize card, which makes Counter Catcher harder to use. Still, there are matchups where your opponent must be aggressive, and those are the moments when Counter Catcher can save you. Another key reason to include it: if you're playing Froslass / Munkidori and intentionally avoid taking Prizes early so you can stack damage and then sweep all six Prizes in one go, then Counter Catcher becomes essential.
在今天的元数据中，大多数玩家都希望他们的对手拿第一张奖品卡，这使得 Counter Catcher 更难使用。尽管如此，有些对决你的对手必须具有侵略性，而这些时刻就是 Counter Catcher 可以拯救你的时刻。包含它的另一个关键原因：如果您正在玩 Froslass / Munkidori 并有意识地避免提前获得奖品，以便您可以叠加伤害，然后一口气扫除所有六个奖品，那么 Counter Catcher 就变得必不可少。

One Rescue Board (Switch to Air Balloon in the Future)
1 个救援板（将来改用气球）

The return of Air Balloon in the upcoming Black Bolt & White Flare set offers a much better overall effect than Rescue Board moving forward.
在即将到来的  Black Bolt & White Flare 套装中，气球的回归提供了比 Rescue Board 更好的整体效果。

One Technical Machine: Devolution
一台技术机器：权力下放

In matchups against Evolution-based decks like Dragapult ex, Charizard ex, the mirror match, Eevee Box, and Gholdengo, Technical Machine: Devolution is your best win condition. First, because this Grimmsnarl deck is excellent at spreading damage, and second, because in a straightforward Prize-trading battle, I believe Grimmsnarl is at a disadvantage.
在与基于 Evolution 的套牌（如 Dragapult ex、Charizard ex、镜子比赛、Eevee Box 和 Gholdengo）的对决中，Technical Machine： Devolution 是您最好的获胜条件。首先，因为这副 Grimmsnarl 套牌非常擅长分散伤害，其次，因为在一场简单的奖品交易战斗中，我认为 Grimmsnarl 处于劣势。

Two Technical Machine: Evolution
两台技术机器：进化

This Pokemon Tool has proven to be increasingly essential for any Evolution deck, as it essentially does a better job than playing two Ultra Ball — with the added benefit of allowing you to evolve a Pokemon the same turn it's played. Against Gardevoir or Dragapult, evolving a late-game Snorunt is nearly impossible — these decks can easily Knock it Out using Munkidori or Phantom Dive's damage to the Bench. However, Technical Machine: Evolution lets you evolve Snorunt into Froslass immediately, closing this vulnerability.
事实证明，这个 Pokemon Tool 对于任何 Evolution 套牌都越来越重要，因为它基本上比玩两个 Ultra Ball 做得更好——还有一个额外的好处，那就是让你可以在玩的同一回合进化 Pokemon。对付 Gardevoir 或 Dragapult，进化游戏后期的 Snorunt 几乎是不可能的——这些套牌可以使用 Munkidori 或 Phantom Dive 对板凳的伤害轻松击倒它。但是，Technical Machine： Evolution 可让您立即将 Snorunt 进化为 Froslass，从而关闭此漏洞。

Two Spikemuth Gym  Two Spikemuth 健身房

This Stadium is where all the deck’s magic happens. The fact that a single Stadium can help search out your entire Grimmsnarl line is already amazing. Plus, it discards your opponent’s Stadium, and since Stadium cards typically stay on the field for more than one turn, you can repeatedly take advantage of its already powerful effect.
这个体育场是所有套牌魔法发生的地方。事实上，单个 Stadium 可以帮助搜索您的整个 Grimmsnarl 系列已经令人惊叹了。此外，它会丢弃对手的 Stadium，而且由于 Stadium 的牌通常会在场上停留不止一个回合，因此您可以反复利用它已经很强大的效果。

Two Artazon  两个 Artazon

Another way to search for Pokemon — even under Item lock. It also helps to bump your opponent’s Stadium cards, especially annoying ones like Jamming Tower.
另一种搜索 Pokemon 的方法 — 即使在 Item lock 下。它还有助于撞击对手的 Stadium 卡，尤其是像 Jamming Tower 这样烦人的卡。

Eight Darkness Energy  八暗能量

Here’s how I arrived at the Energy count: In my opinion, you need a comfortable number of Energy cards to power up two Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex with two Energy each, and at least two additional Munkidori, totaling six Energy. The remaining two Energy act as a buffer in case some are stuck in your Prize cards.
以下是我得出能量计数的方法：在我看来，你需要足够数量的能量卡来为两个 Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl ex 提供能量，每个卡有两个能量，以及至少两个额外的 Munkidori，总共有 6 个能量。剩下的两个能量充当缓冲，以防一些能量卡在你的奖品卡中。

Final Thoughts  最后的思考

This deck is arguably the most polarizing in the format, with crucial matchups being slightly favorable and less relevant matchups skewing unfavorable. This makes it a risky choice for large-scale tournaments featuring a wide player base and diverse deck choices. At the World Championships, though, I think this becomes a good thing — players tend to stick to the best decks, meaning Tier 2 options are often sidelined.
这副套牌可以说是赛制中最两极分化的，关键的对决略微有利，而不太相关的对决则偏向于不利。这使其成为具有广泛玩家基础和多样化套牌选择的大型锦标赛的冒险选择。不过，在世界锦标赛上，我认为这成为一件好事——玩家倾向于坚持使用最好的套牌，这意味着 2 级选项经常被边缘化。

In my past World Championships run, I encountered more Tier 1 decks than usual. The rogue or Tier 2 decks that did show up were typically innovative, creatively tweaked builds made specifically for the tournament. In short, they weren’t just Tier 2 replicas but refined strategies from high-level players looking to surprise the meta.
在我过去的世界锦标赛中，我遇到的 1 级套牌比平时多。出现的盗贼或 Tier 2 套牌通常是专为比赛打造的创新、创意调整的构筑。简而言之，它们不仅仅是 2 级复制品，而是来自希望给元数据带来惊喜的高等级玩家的精炼策略。

Another key aspect of Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex is its unique gameplay. It requires practice and dedication to master. The list I shared today includes 15 Basic Pokemon — nine of them unique — each designed for a specific role. Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex cannot carry the deck alone; in fact, it only truly shines in the Gardevoir ex matchup. In other situations, it's a solid attacker but needs the support of all the other Basic Pokemon in the deck to reach its full potential.
Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl ex 的另一个关键方面是其独特的游戏玩法。它需要练习和奉献精神才能掌握。我今天分享的清单包括 15 个基本口袋妖怪——其中 9 个是独一无二的——每个都为特定角色设计。Marnie 的 Grimmsnarl 前任无法独自扛起甲板;事实上，它只有在 Gardevoir ex matchup 中才真正闪耀。在其他情况下，它是一个可靠的攻击者，但需要牌组中所有其他基本口袋妖怪的支持才能充分发挥其潜力。
