Hey all. It’s the final week before Worlds, and many of you may be anxiously preparing for the most coveted event of the year, whether it be for the Open, Day 1, or Day 2. Personally, I’m excited to have another Day 1 bye because it gives me an extra day to test, enjoy the atmosphere of Worlds, and spend time with friends. Of course, I also have the added benefit of not playing Day 1, have less stress, etc.

Analyzing Day 1 results is a good way to get a grasp for the meta, but know that it will also change. Last year, if I remember correctly, M Rayquaza blitzed its way through Day 1 with little problem. This led many people to indirectly counter it by choosing a favorable matchup or by adding a Sudowoodo GRI. Garbodor GRI decks made up the most of Top Cut, but Gardevoir-GX ended up winning. That’s a prime example of how the meta can shift from Day 1 to Day 2, but keep in mind that people could turn a blind eye to what does well Day 1! I predict that Rayquaza-GX will be the most succeeding deck of Day 1, but then will tank on Day 2 because players will have switched decks or teched for it.
