A little shortminded imo. At minimum TDK runs 2 scrapper. And if you can fit more than 2 mirror into your list you definitely don't have enough consistency cards. If you can even fit one I'de be questioning your draw/search support. It's really not the place for silver mirror, blastoise is tight...

RE: Darkrai EX / Sableye / Hypnotoxic Laser / Virbank City Gym Hmm. Well it was in the deck that won worlds, so I'm going to have to disagree on this one, not to mention with darkrai dark claw you just hit AMAZING numbers. Edit: Also misread. It's pretty terrible in blasty.

Whelp, here's a skeleton I guess. -Pokemon- 3 Genesect 2 Virizion 1 Tropius -Trainers- 1 G-Booster 1 Plasma Ball 2 Tool Scrapper 2 Ultra Ball 4 Colress Machine 4 Juniper 4 N 2 Triad 2 Skyarrow -Energy- 8 Grass 4 Plasma

Even then it'll depend on how people react to the art. Olmost all the people I know thought the promo mewtwo last fall looked terrible so they kept their NXD mewtwos. The full arts will usually stay higher, but if the consumer hates the art that'll change the price. Not to mention FA deoxys and...

If everything plays out, you can get an t1 attachment, then t2 attachment and colress machine to charge up genesect (with booster), wash rinse repeat 2 more times to take the game, there's also Virizion who (if needed) can accelerate energy until you have all you need. In reference to how VG...

Right, I think we're making the same point. All I'm trying to say is that VG isn't getting enough credit as a deck, if it sets up before blastoise and can consistently take out squirtles (with 6-8 ways to do it it shouldn't be that hard), or stream G-Boosters it'll win. If blastoise sets up...

Completely ignoring the fact that blastoise has grass weakness is a little much don't you think? The fact that your acceleration can get taken out for 3 energy and a catcher/plasma manual attachment can be pretty devestating to the deck. Darkrai did it for 3 energy, a laser, virbank, and a dark...

Blastoise: Agreed, argument N/A. Just saying that there is till a possibility of losing the Klinklang to a blastoise or baby bk. Darkrai: I'm a little more inclined to disagree on this one. Mainly because if the darkrai player times his absols correctly he can make a solid KO on the...

Even if it struggles against goth lock, it's less than very favourable against plasma/darkrai/blastoise. All 3 decks have at least 2 non-ex attackers that they can use, Darkrai has Absol which wrecks Klinklang pretty bad, plus sabelye lasers. Plasma has Kyurem and Absol which also do pretty...

It's a tool to get the attack that B-Kyurem has vs. a stage 2. I haven't tested it at all, but I wouldn't assume that BK is easier to get fully charged than Genesect. Not to mention if you get setup second genesect'll just take out your acceleration and you'll fall behind. On the other hand...

Still have Max Pot. with the SR reprint. You're correct though, it will be taking a hit with Shift-Klang and Cobalion nv.

Energy Switch is Rotated, this deck is dead for the moment. (I realize it might be reprinted but that's not a guaruntee)

Don't forget that not all genesect decks will be strictly V/G, techs like lugia, bouffolant or even tropius (not fire weak) can do pretty well against ho-oh with him being a 160 hp pokemon. Not to mention you will get destroyed by Kyurem/Bangle decks.

@Venasour If I understand what your logic is: -Lasers are going out of style because Virizion (G- type) stops them cold -Ho-oh and Terrakion do very well together, but struggled against lasers. -Since Virizion has lowered to depleted laser count Ho-oh with terrakion (G-weak) as a main attacker...

Oh yeah you're right. I saw it in the mirror, however if most darkrai players play like you do (I play the same way) and attack with absol when my opponent hits 4/5 benched Mr. Mime can still be of much use. Even if he protects from benched damage for 3 turns, thats 90 hp saved, and while it...

While mime does hurt with absol in play, once he's taken out mime is a better choice. With some variants of TDK playing absol too, you just need to focus some effort on taking it out before you load up your bench, after it's gone you can max your bench space out while taking minimal damage from...

Which regionals was this? Also do you know of any footage of it? Watching T2 at regionals is always fun, it's not easy to get that far at an event that big.

Just add a mr. mime. It's great in that deck against darkrai, but the real thing it helps out against is Kyurem, without that bench damage it's a sub-par attack. The 2nd deck at canadian nats ran it and I believe the first might have as well.

RE: Darkrai EX / Sableye / Hypnotoxic Laser / Virbank City Gym @Blah, Well that's been different from what I've tested. Depending on your matchup if you don't get setup fast enough you get pressured to death and lose, especially with blastoise. This being the case I prefer computer search as...

RE: Darkrai EX / Sableye / Hypnotoxic Laser / Virbank City Gym 100% Disagree on this one. While dowsing machine MIGHT be useful for winning the stadium war, junk hunt is a better versian of it. And I realize that it's only items, wheras dowsing can grab supports and stadiums too, it's still...
