Dark Tyrant Deck (Unlimited)

Hey guys. Been Fixing up my dark deck little by little as I can afford to and Its slowly getting better. I'm running Unlimited format cause I mostly play with friends and we throw our own tourneys. I originally started off as dark/fighting but decided it worked better to lose the fighting types. So I've kind of gone towards a tool box style dark deck and have incorporated a few different dark strategies into the deck. Still working on getting all the cards (mostly the more expensive ones) like Tyranitar prime, rare candy, and double colorless. But here is the blue print for what I plan on eventually running. Any tips or advice would be great, thanks :D

So right now I'm running Honchkrow with Blindside which works really well but I wanted to put in the double colorless to speed up the deck and Mandibuzz works better with that. Especially since it also speeds up absol G and tyranitar aswell. Sableye is kind of my graveyard picker so I can get things that have already been used and reuse them. Works really well with Team rockets trickery cause It pretty much makes sure he stays doing 50 and making the opponent discard is always great. Umbreon paired with the unseen eevee just makes him a good fast starter and of course to lock up big hitters with powers or bodies. Absol is basically used for taking out big threats. LEt me know what you guys think.
 
RE: Dark Tyrant Deck

I don't do unlimited format so I can't help you much but what I can say is you don't need 4 interviewer's questions. Pretty much no deck should need more than 2, if they do they probably need more energy or energy retrieval instead.
 
RE: Dark Tyrant Deck

When you say tyranitar UL, do you mean prime or non-prime? Because the non-prime isn't that great a card...

I think you my be right about the interviewers questions. I might take 2 out and do 2 switches instead. To save the retreat heavy pokes. As far as the tyranitar, that list is using prime. My deck is currently running the other due to cost. Right now I'm just waiting to be able to afford those, rare candy, and double colorless. Oh and I haven't found mandibuzz yet so I'm using honchkrow.

I don't think Sableye is needed here.

You know I felt the same at first unfilled sableye got me things I needed to win a few games from the discard and also when I used rockets trickery about 4 turns in a row. He's been a life saver at times.
