Burning Blaziken (Cities, Senior)

Aspiring Trainer
Member
4-2-4 Blaziken Pt
2-2 Blaziken FB
2-2 Ninetails
2 Crobat
2 Uxie
PKM22

3 Cyrus
2 Collector
4 PokeTurn
2 Warp Point
3 Bebe
3 Communication
1 Palmer
1 E-Gain
2 Candy
1 Luxury Ball
2 BTS
2 PONT
1 Fisherman
TSS 27

3 DCE
8 Fire
11NRG

Strategy: Try to start with a Blaziken FB/Torchic. Blaziken has the potential to donk with crobat G etc. Burn with Blaziken and attack for big damage with Blaziken FBs body which does 40+ damage to a burned Pokemon. Ninetails is for draw. Fisherman is to recover discarded energies.
 
RE: Bruning Blaziken (Cities, Senior)

I would add 1 level max it would help to get aether heatran X or blaziken X out with little effort. And some energy recover would be good since you play ninetales HS for draw. So 1 fisher man can help. And you play no azelf LA, that might be bad when something you need is prized so it's also an option to put in.

So take out: 2
1 pokemon collector (i don't think you need 3 of these)
1 bebe's search (no need for 4)

Put in: (chose 2)
1 level max (can help but not guaranteed)
1 fisherman (should be played if you play ninetales)
1 azelf LA (good if something is prized)

You should also type the full card name and set released from, since there are others with same/similar name.
 
RE: Bruning Blaziken (Cities, Senior)

I play pretty much the same deck, and honestly, you really don't NEED Heatran. It takes so long to set up and is extremely slow. Adding level max is not only flippy, but can get trainer locked in a deck that's already pretty trainer heavy due to it's speed. Ditch the 1-1 heatran(which really isn't even consistent enough to draw into) and add another 1-0-1 Blaziken PL. This should help your consistency immensely.

You also should be running {C}{C} if your plan is to Clutch for 80 with burn. Attacking for 1 attachment is much better than 2. If you face something like Scizor, then you can use standard {R} energy, but {C}{C} should be your main energy type. Ditch the 2 Warp and 2 {R} for 4 {C}{C} IMO.

**SIDE NOTE: What is Bruning? Is that some new way to cook or something?**
 
Lol I meant burning xD
I have tried this deck by taking out the 2-2 ninetails and adding 4 Level Maxes and it worked (I usually got at least one in my starting hand) but it was quite flippy. But I've been lucky sometimes and managed to get both Heatran X and Blaziken FB X out on my first turn :D
But XFlameMasterX I think you are right because normally I don't have enough space for Heatran anyway as I'll have something like this:
Blaziken, Blaziken FB, Ninetails, Uxie, Crobat G, Uxie
I think I should now be focusing on Clutch since Heatran will be out.
@ Aburame Yuki:
With Azelf, it's the same as Heatran I can't normally get him out and if I do it will just fill up bench space until something kills it. I'll try to fit a Fisherman in there.
So:

-1-1 Heatran
-2 Warp Energy
-1 Pokemon Collector
-2 Fire Energy

+1 Fisherman
+4 DCE
+1-0-1 Blaziken PL

I think I should add a E-belt but I'm not sure what to take out.
 
This deck would benifit with Enbuoh from BW collection when it comes out.

Unlimited fire attachment is reallly useful.
 
@ Electabuzzy: Most likely, by the time B&W comes out, Platnium will be rotated. And Blaziken PL is the heart & soul of this deck(no pun intended). Without Blaziken PL, the only thing you could do to burn would be to use Houndoom Prime, but that's very flippy and not even worth it. Strangely enough, it's attack locks just like Blaziken's Clutch, but the flip really kills it.
@Keleyn: Not to sound arrogant, but I know I'm right. This deck has been my baby ever since HGSS came out, and I've been working endlessly to perfect it. I've considered everything that you've probably ever run and more. Definitely go 4-3-4 Blaziken. You HAVE to have consistency since it's your main line. 2-2 vs. 3-1 on FB is up to you. Personally, although it's nice to have 3 FB for better chance of starting with it, it also means that your deck REQUIRES Azlef, since if FB X is prized, your screwed. That creates even more problems because unless you run seeker, if you get an Azlef start and FB X is prized, you'll never get Lv. X out.

One other thing I feel like mentioning. I'm not too sure about Ninetales at all. This is not a discard deck at all, and if you discard your fire energy, you won't have enough left for an emergency Fire Spin. On the other hand, Ninetales is awesome consistant draw power, and this deck has plenty of bench space for it. I've honestly never even tried it out because I just didn't think it'd work. I also don't think I run enough fire energy in the first place to warrant a draw engine surrounding energy.

Keep testing your deck out with the changes I suggested, but keep Ninetales in and let me know how it runs.
 
The Ninetails actually works quite well, but i took away a DCE and added a fire energy so I can draw more.
 
Swap a Bebe for 1 more Cyrus.

Also, If you're going to run only 2 candy, up your Blazideath line to a 4-3-4 with 3 BTS. Otherwise add 1-2 more candy.
 
you need 4 collector. i don't know how much i have to tell people this. do you want a consistent way of getting out your basics t1/2? run 4 collector. please.
 
Disagree. Collector is SUCH a dead draw late game. Most worthless card ever. 3 is fine.
If you're that concerned run Call.
 
who cares? use your other, more useful supporters that are better late game. starting with a collector is essential.
it's all about consistency. with 3 collector, you increase chances of a bad start with no search or supporters. in that situation, you literally rely on topdecks to grab what you need. but, there would probably be no late game if you had a no supporter start. 4 collector increases CONSISTENCY, the key to any deck.
