Strategy

The strategy is quite simple. Focus on Blacksmith to charge a fire Pokemon turn 1 or turn 2.
Normally, I will start with Reshiram or Entei and try to discard energies turn 1 with ultra ball or flame torch to bring them back with blacksmith.

I use hard charm to preserve Entei or Reshiram from a KO and use Max potion to heal them. I don't really care to lose 3 energies from Entei with Max potion because I can bring them back with Blacksmith and another Entei.

I'm still debating about Pyroar. I want to play it because it's a fire Pokemon so have a great synergy with blacksmith, can prevent attacks from EX and can counter mirror match but I love garbodor too.

I put 1 Jirachi EX in this deck to help the turn one 90 or 120 with Blue Flare. If I have in my hand 1 professor Letter and 1 Ultra Ball, it's an easy 2 energies attached to one of my Pokemon so it's a great start.

I use Pal Pad to bring back my Blacksmith.
I use few draw supporters because I focus on Blacksmith and my draw is Flame Torch and Bicycle.

Can I have your opinion on my list?
 
Well. I can give advice but I have absolutely NO idea what the meta will be. Maybe take out 2 fire for consistency. Also, there will not be a mirror as this is rogue.
 
True for mirrors but Pyroar is a good option against Plasma or EX decks. I tried the deck with 12 energies and I had some issues with my energies. Maybe I can drop 1 energy for 1 super road.
 
That's a good idea. I see the fire type of decks working when the new set comes out, but I actually have my eye on 1 particular card.....
