so ive been testing some decks and these are the ones that i'm thinking of playing,
1. sablegarb
i dont have a ton of experience playing this deck, but it seems like a good play. a lot decks like buzzgarb mew3 and zoroark are special energy reliant and all the energy denial cripples them. garb turns off mew3 blastoise trade(just to list a few archetypes) but the turbo dar matchup feels bad, ive been thinking a crygonial can cripple them early game and a cyrus prism/paralell city can destro their setup. crygonial is good against archies because you cant get garbodor online t1 so item lock makes it pretty much impssible for them toget an archies if they dont get it t1.
2. Seismatoad garb
energy denial and ability/item losck seems like its in a great position right now, and in was saismatoad seems better than sableye. the main problem is that almost EVERY DECK is playing ranger. they do have to get ranger field blower and vs seeker to have anything past that one turn though. to sum this up, feels better than sablegarb but ranger exists so....
3. zorocheckmate.
Great tag team matchups(especially mew3) good night march, 50/50 zoroark but dies to fighting which makes me scared to play it.
4.zorogarb. feels underwhelming, zoroark dosent even 2hko mew3 and opponents can play around items. also dies to fighting and turbodark. it just feels worse than checmate to me
%. buzzgarb.
good matchups, but sky return and acerola exist. you acn ability lock but they can use stealthy hood, and its somewhat inconsistient.
so right now I would probably play checkmate or sableye but i woul;d like advice on that you think would be the best play out of the decks i listed.
