I'm on the fence between these two decks, so please state your opinion and any changes to that deck.
 
A deck like this can't work nowise. Just the fact that you have to set up two stage2 is difficult even for google' deck (and that is as well why we don't see it anymore), and here you're saying that you want mix google.dec with another deck, which has its own problems.
You can try to take the Electrode line out and attack with Kyurem or Cobalion as tanks, maybe you could add a Victini V-Create to counter Cobalion (who crashes Kyurem); this way, the deck will become a google.dec with Kyurem and Cobalion to attack (viz a thinner google.dec, faster and more consistent).
I think that this way it will become at least a bit better :)

Hope I helped!

EDIT: you can also consider a Dodrio line: Kyurem, Cobalion, Reuniclus and Vileplume needs two energies to retreat, and Lampent's Luring Light could become your main issue.
 
I agree with some points above, however I think electorde combos really well in this deck
as soon as you blow up the lil bastard you can twins :D and with 4 twins in the deck you shouldn't have to many problems finding one. Then if you keep the twins chain rocking you can get setup fast(er)

But as Balboa said it's alot to setup, it's already a deck that falls behind to setup a wall that eventually means you can't be stoped and pull it back, and as much as electrode helps you setup faster via twins (and getting you energy at the same time) it will also hinder you, if you come up against a fast deck they are just going to slam solosis and Oddish all day long =/
 
So, I should go with a different deck? I'm really fine with it, since my old deck is just flat out boring, and I'm going deck shopping. Which deck should I use for the upcoming format, but still good now. Rogue decks are just fine.
For now though, I'll merely rite a google deck and Cake deck, and see which is better.
 
Deck choice is up to you man, what feels best ?
How do you like to play?
What cards do you have to build with?

I am still running Kingdra / Cinncino lol! Mainly because I don't really like to many of the other decks out there currently (CaKe, Eelzone e.t.c)
I have made alot of changes to the deck, and I keep updating it as the meta changes in my area but it still holds it's own. Came second this week at league loosing in a VERY tight game against CaKe. Lost due to a silly misplay on my part.

But I love the deck, and can't bring myself to take it apart or play anything else :p I am currently building and testing my own version of 6 corners.

Look at the decks out there and see if you like any of them, if yes then build one and playtest and customise it for your playstyle. If no then look at the cards you have and think about what combo's you can make if you want to go rogue. Then like above playtest it and change it till it works.
 
If you want something like cake with a more different feel, there was a weird deck I ran into at cities.

It was cobalion,electrode,klinklang,Scizor

This dude ended up wining seniors.

How it works, is he would get out cobaLion with trode and set up twins and lock. But if cobalion killed he would shift gear, max potion, and move it back. Then if he was against like tyram and they used rescue he would bring out Scizor and win. That's pretty much how it went.

For such a weird deck I still thought it was a pretty cool idea and I think I'll try and make a variant of it.

Maybe this could work against senior or junior players, but I think mainly junior ones. The first thing who a skilled TyRam player does when he sees a Scyther is setting up a second Reshiram without Rescue Energy attached and starting Catcher around...
