Straight ninetales eh? Neat. Only thing I can think is you might want 2 (3 for prizing) fairy dolls, clay won't discard them so you can drop them down, and immediately put them on the bottom of the deck. I'd want to do that in my rotom deck, because (based on my experience with rotom) decking...

I'm finally back from vacation, and played a bunch of games with several different iterations. Just FYI it is a total riot when you get this off on ptcgo, I can't even imagine what some of these people are thinking when I take six prizes or wipe their board in one go after falling behind...

Re: mewmew, a turn gusting mew is a turn beedrill takes out mewmew. Also power plant is an option. Re: malamar, healing makes tina a 3hko even with spell tag. Or worse with additional heals. Beedrill need not come into play. At least that would be my guesses.

I'm intrigued because I already thought omelette GX and beedrill was a neat idea... omelette can be a tanky healing deck like celesaur, great against one prizers, and then beedrill is just this nuke you can use against tag teams. Maybe post the deck in the garage? How's it working so far?

I built a just keep chandy-ing version, and so far it's snacking on everything on the ladder. List if you want: My desire in this altered version is to not only get the turn 2 chandy but ideally get into a misty's favor as well, which can draw 3 supporters out of the deck meaning you can get...

I keep having to do actual work instead of testing my crazy idea. I did pull 2 a. raichus, with Brock that's probably fine. I'll have to throw it up against actual ptcgo people when I get the chance, but unfortunately (timing wise) I'll be away on vacation all next week, so I'm hoping other...

I think it's awesome and would try it if I had the cards. My initial thoughts are ditch slowking and triples for a Cobalion GX (stops chuchu and I suppose breloom) and some weakguard energy. With both energy and pan you have a very good chance of making weakness irrelevant.

All this discard with clay and excadrill makes me want to build a rotom deck that has a stage 1 fighting type attacker to open with. Clay doesn't discard the tools, but I can just play bombs and barriers that discard themselves.

Well, I mean if you thought it was risky, 4 of makes sense. I would almost never play 4 lusamine in a deck though, and 4 brock only if I wasn't playing lusamine and was doing something destructive like this.

You could just play 4 brock 4 lusamine 4 pal pad, etc.

I'm not sure I should suggest anything, as SUM-LOT was my absolute favorite format. I want it back, lol. There are so many decks around, it might be helpful to know what you liked to play before. Also December wasn't very long ago, do you have staples from then? Cynthias? Lillies? Possibly even...

Well said. It's ok to have top decks of the moment, as long as the next moment we could be seeing something else show up or move up in the ranks.

I spend all my tickets on theme tournaments and in a lull before a rotation I play theme by default when not dreaming up wacky decks. Ampharos played correctly is the only counter to charizard played correctly i.e. rapidash spam while setting up zards and queens. I can count losses to loop on...

These are fine for the cards, but competitively against Ampharos and the team up decks I don't see it. Better than the UNB decks though.

What's the point of having a decided, aka solved meta? Whether it's one bdif or 5 top decks, there's no room for creativity. The best part about this game is coming up with new archetypes, new counters, new techs, etc. If 5 decks rule, despite the best efforts of creative deck builders, time for...

Depends on what you expect to face, I guess. I'm leaning back toward zebstrika again myself, but with mismagius and poke comms to swap between two stage 1s. Mismagius lets you go down in prizes and draw some cards against stall, but you can just sac it vs aggressive decks. I haven't done any...

Not sure promo Pikachu is necessary if you are going to drop 3 emolgas down anyway off an elm, but maybe. It also seems like 4 comm is overkill for only one target that is comm-only, especially since Volker can grab one if needed, or you might just Cynthia into koko naturally. I hate autolosses...
