RE: VaniSword (stupid idea)

i like virizion with sacred sword better than either of these.

for 1 it heals itself on the top attack.
2 it has 1 retreat cost. (skyarrow) and you nullify having vanilluxe in this deck, along with cobalion and terrakion. :)

I saw Virizon closely and your point is right. The stupid part of the deck is just Vanilluxe indeed, i'll change it and see

thanks
 
RE: VaniSword (stupid idea)

The NV versions and Terrakion are quite allot better than the EP versions,so maybe you should swap them around....
If you do 3 Terrakion is probably not neded as just 2 Terrakion can take about any Electric based decks so replacing one with a Junk Arm, for added consistency may be a good idea.
 
RE: VaniSword (stupid idea)

NV Terrakion and Cobalion, Mewtwo EX is always a nifty addition too
-2 Rocky Helmet
-1 Cilan
-3 Terrakion
-3 Cobalion

+2 Mewtwo EX
+1 Professor Juniper
+3 Terrakion (NV)
+3 Cobalion (NV)

no they aren't. just more commonly used.

the sacred swords have potential. just nobody has ever spent the time of day to use the idea.

Like i did :D
 
RE: VaniSword (stupid idea)

The NV ones are still quite a lot better, that just doesn't mean the EP ones are useless. Thinking the EP ones are actually better is just silly.

As far as the deck goes, Kyurem EX does pretty much the same as your EP Musketeers but with more HP and more damage.

I don't know. 100 for 3 and can't even use it next turn? It's not even all {C}.

skyarrow for free retreat and use another one. playing magical chairs between virizion.

why is this concept so hard for the online users to grasp? lol
 
RE: VaniSword (stupid idea)

Please add the names of your main attackers to the title of your thread. Thanks.

Perhaps I could see Virizion working with some form of energy acceleration. You'd need 6 energies in 3 turns. But you were actually talking about Terrakion, and he has a hard time playing musical chairs. Cobalion's only slightly better. But all of this is ignoring the low HP. 100 HP and 3 energies is just asking for an X-ball. (I'll give Terrakion credit for his 120.)
 
RE: VaniSword (stupid idea)

I'd rather not use vanilluxe because it's a bit harder and longer to setup. I'd just use dodrio since it takes up less space and with sky arrow you only have to discard one to retreat terrakion if necessary. For the sacred sword attack, I think virizion would be better than cobalion since terrakions are played a lot. I'd say an energy accelerator would work really well too. Try celebi prime maybe or electrode prime.

Your comment was absolutely right. Now you make me definily Update my post, thank you
 
Try running terrakion EP for sacred sword instead of cobalion since terrakion can hit for weakness in electric types and eelektrik decks are played a lot.
 
I'd rather run the one from NV, since it can attack every turn. With a retreat of 4, it's a little bit harder to dodge the Sacred Sword recoil.
 
I would too but the main strategy is to use sacred sword so I would maybe tech in 1-2 from NV to revenge KO and against zekeels.
 
I can see a big weakness to this deck. You have no energy acceleration and trying to use sacred sword takes 3 energy. To chain sacred sword, it takes 6 energy meaning 6 turns. What are the odds of your pokemon with energy (assuming you didn't miss attachments) being knocked out in the first 3 turns? If they are knocked out, what next? 3 more turns to power up another attacker?
 
Yes. That's why I suggested electrode prime since you could take advantage of twins and and electrode is compatible with every type of energy.
 
Dude personally, this is my idea, (take it or leave it).

Run 4 Tangela (COL) with nurtional support, 2 Shaymin EX 4 Virizion, and a solid Vileplume UD line.

Start with tangela or another tech support to get the cards out (Tangela for energy accel).
Leave the Tangela out and use it's energy accel attack as long as possible (possibly 2 tangela).
Bait your opponent into KO'ing 1-2 of them. Drop twins, search & drop vileplume T3-4. (obviously skyarrow needs to be played by then)
Run 2 Black belt and then you are set for 2-3 turns of twins/black belt and you can have easily musical chair set up with the virizion.
Ride the musical chairs as long as possible, play the N when your opponent is down to 2 maybe 3 prizes to disrupt the hand, then pull out Shaymin EX for an easy 120+ per turn.

A buddy and I thought of this deck and to me it seems legit. Havent play tested or anything though.
