Psychic Elegance is the name of the deck used by Tord Reklev, the Masters Division runner-up at the 2023 Pokémon World Championships. It is one of the 2023 World Championship Decks released March 1, 2024. Each deck comes with a playmat, poster, booklet about the event, TCGL code card, and a special Worlds 2023 deck box, pin, and coin. The cards included in the deck are not the exact prints used by Reklev, but are the most recent, lowest-rarity print with any Holofoil removed. Each card has a unique card back (thus making them ineligible for tournaments) and Reklev's signature.
Description
Packaging
Pokémon TCG legend Tord Reklev's masterful touch is apparent throughout his Psychic Elegance deck - its pieces build upon each other to form a powerhouse engine. From the early game to the late, support is provided by synergistic card combinations. In this skillful strategy, Kirlia is more than a means to an end - its Refinement Ability forms the deck's backbone, as it helps Gardevoir ex accelerate extra energy through discarding, and ultimately, take control of the game. With a little help from comeback kid Iono, opponents can watch their strategies suddenly dissolve in Gardevoir's embrace.
Booklet
Tord is one of the giants of the competitive TCG scene. Since his debut in the 2014 season, he has won just about everything there is to win, with only a world title eluding him. He is the only player so far to complete a grand slam by winning all four International Championships. He has won Regionals and Special Events all across Europe and the US. He has made top cut at a major event at least once every season since 2016. Our point is, Tord is a juggernaut. So, with all his experience, knowledge, and success, what was his strategy for 2023? Frighteningly simple, really: "Set up Gardevoir. Attack." True to his word, Tord rampaged through the bracket all the way to the finals table and a game that will go down as one of the most hard fought and intense in Worlds history.
