It's still a good deck but I don't think it's tier 1 good. You have that at tier 1 but not Volcanion? Volcanion has seen about the same success recently and is pretty consistent. Although I'm biased because I pretty much mastered that deck (only one I know how to really play), it's definitely...

You can say what you want but I play the EXACT Darkrai deck and I play a great hand and lose out in the end, NOT BECAUSE OF ME, but because the opponent can take out my Darkrais with Choice Bands, etc. By the time you get enough energies on board, it's over for your Darkrais. Sorry but even...

You're right. I'm a shit player and probably should quit. Going to be putting my stuff up on Ebay sometime soon anyways. Don't have anyone that teaches how to get better or learn how to play these decks but whatever.

Darkrai is not tier 1. I am 30-40 with it and it gets thrashed pretty hard by a lot of things like Metagross, Drampa with Berserk, Vika/Bulu, etc, etc. With Choice Band out to hit numbers against Darkrai and Field Blowers, it is NOT tier 1. It just isn't. Vika/Bulu is tier 3 imo as well. Too...

I just play tested a game where I drew 4 Dark energies, 2 Altars, a Darkrai, and Exp Share... Idk how anyone would win a game starting out like that. And I always make sure to have Darkrai and Yveltal going, with Yveltal as the main attacker to accumulate energies onto the board. But as...

I guess i'll start screen shotting the hands I get because you think i'm kidding...

It doesn't matter your skill level when you draw complete brick hands. That's what you aren't understanding.

This is online only. And as for carbon copy, yeah it's not EXACTLY card for card but it runs pretty much most of the cards, other than some tweaks I find I like. But even so, it draws so terrible online to where I have a lone Darkrai, Elixirs, Exp Share, energies, and that's it. So if I don't...

It's pretty much an exact deck that top 8ed a recent regionals but yet in testing, it's drawn very awful a lot of times. I'll get hands like Yveltal, Darkrai, 2 Exp Shares, Elixir, Altar, and Choice Band. It happens a lot and idk why that is considering it's the same thing that top 8ed. It's...

The Octillery line is no more clunkier than the Starmie line honestly but if we're doing Expanded, then Hoopa is the call (because it's rotating out of Standard anyways). I was thinking I need Blacksmiths in this deck? I mean, Volcanion does run those in expanded, right? If Volcanion doesn't...

I play Standard so I don't wish to use Expanded cards. However, my locals plays expanded exclusively so I just have to drag along. I'm not getting wins with this deck and need help. ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 11 * 1 Shaymin-EX ROS 77 * 3 Volcanion STS 25 * 1...

Sure.

I'm 12-7 with the deck. Honestly I should have fewer losses because some losses I have are due to shit like not getting a Float Stone... ****** Pokémon Trading Card Game Deck List ****** ##Pokémon - 11 * 1 Shaymin-EX ROS 77 * 3 Volcanion STS 25 * 1 Tapu Lele-GX GRI 60 * 1 Remoraid BKT 32 * 1...

So you're basically telling me to quit? I did play Yugioh a long time ago and did well at many regionals with top 8's, qualifying for nats, etc. That was back in 2008 when i last played that. I hadn't played a card game since until this year. i hate losing to dumb luck though. I vs a Vespiqueen...

I play Tapu Lele after Pokemon Fan Club to fetch Sycamore for next turn. And then the guy Delinquets me. I mean, who runs that for one? I have played HOURS on end. In fact, it's all I do and yet, nothing has changed. Like I have said, it's difficult to know what a right play is. How do I figure...

I just fought myself out of a tough Mega Ray situation where he had the complete set up on me. Disrupting his Sky Field, taking out his Mega Ray, and N'ing him down to 1 really saved me. I would have easily won if I were able to draw into a Lysandre but that's apparently not allowed for me.

I'm trying to learn while also looking to win but all I am finding is that in losses, I come up just short. In a lot of the games as Volcanion, i lose to stuff like water decks. Before Guardians Rising, I was winning a lot of games with Volcanion. Not so much now. Things got harder.

The problem I have is I don't know which option is correct in a situation because yeah, I do want something to happen but it seems like I always choose wrong. And you talk like it's a fixable issue but is it really? I feel like it's a mental thing that's just always gonna doom me with games like...

So I just Sycamore and discard the Lele? See, that's what i'm trying to say. It's not clear as day what the right play is.

Is Ninetales GX a viable deck? Volcanion is just too clunky and I need something more versatile and consistent. Is Ninetales that deck?
