Blaziken?

Tyranitar/Bisharp/Darkrai < Zoroark/Weavile/Darkrai < Darkrai/Tornadus < Darkrai/Sableye/Weavile.

In my opinion.

Anyway, Blaziken is a bad card. It's a worse version of Reshiram, and Reshiram isn't even playable.

I'm not inclined to believe a word you say, A: Concidering I'm 2-1 Against Zekeels with T-Tar/Bisharp/Darkrai in testing. B: You think Terrakion outclasses Donphan Prime. (Still have not explained that on the Card of the Day)

Blaziken isn't meant to be a Reshi replacement, the list I showed earlier is pretty good, not Tier one good, but it still does good with a decent setup.
 
What does Terrakion and Donphan have to do with Blaziken? :\ I'm hoping the rotation is Bw- On, because it gets rid of Dual Ball which is an annoying card is one of the cards that makes to format so fast.
 
I'm 100% sure the rotation is going to be BW- on. Everything points in that direction.
 
I can't see Blaziken succeeding without any real Empoleon counter. Empoleon/Terrakion is pretty popular, running straight fire will get you an autoloss to a fairly powerful deck.
 
You can probably run plain Zekrom to Outrage and deal with Empoleon. And Blaziken does 1HKO Empoleon with a Plus Power. Blaziken also 1-shots Terrakion.
 
I'd agree with that. Zekrom also stops the occasional Tornadus Donk, which would rip the entire deck to shreds.
 
Are we really talking about how to counter Empoleon and Tornadus Donk? Neither of those decks are good at all.
 
^ Not true. Empoleon is a great deck, its just that Zekeels is running rampant. It can beat Zekeels with Terrakion and a smart player. Tornadus Donk is OK at best. I've heard of the aerodactyl version which completely stinks.

Blaziken is one of the only cards that nails the magic 130. It is great if it were fast, but it isn't. I can see it with emboar, but it would be slow. I don't see much of a future for it.....it is great but too slow.
 
No, Empoleon is bad. It's way too slow and it doesn't have a very good damage output. It's tier 2 at the very best.
 
Tier 2 is still good. Empoleon is slow? 1 energy attacker and built in draw slow? I think not. Anyways, this is a thread for Blaziken, not Empoleon, so this arguement is completely irrelevant to the topic.
 
An Empoleon counter. Like Zekrom. Not a tech. Why in the world would anyone ever tech an Empoleon into a deck.
 
I think he meant a tech to counter Empoleon...

When you say Terrakion tech, it usually means you're teching a Terrakion. Not a tech against Terrakion.

Anyways, Zekrom is probably best for the job even though it is OHKOd w/ pluspower by empoleon and can be Terrakion'd. Tornadus EX can put quick damage and KO piplups and can live for a while (SSU helps it live longer). Kingdra Prime, though difficult to set up, can help OHKO the Empos too. Not like there are many Empos out there.
