shameless bump....I need some help from those that actually know the competitive game well (unlike me)
 
RE: Help with PlayTCG deck

What is the strategy? You also have way too many energy.
 
RE: Help with PlayTCG deck

I don't know what a good amount of energy is.....and I don't know really. Just a deck of primarily colorless with a good psychic line and a good water line.
 
RE: Help with PlayTCG deck

Please update the title of the thread with the main Pokémon in the deck.

14 is a good amount of energy in a deck. I would have 26 TSS in a deck.
 
A good guideline for decks would be:

20-25 pokemon
10-15 energies
20-30 trainers

Now when considering your trainers, obviously you want them to compliment the style of deck you have and your strategy.
If you have stage 2 pokemon in the deck, obviously you want rare candies to get them out quicker.
You almost always want 2-3 save cards (twins, black belts, etc etc)
At least 1/2 of the trainers should be some sort of draw/search power to get the cards you need out ASAP.
Usually when running stage 2 cards you want 3-4 of the basic, 1-3 of the stage 1, 3-4 of the stage 2. Depending on the number of rare candies.
Usually when thinking of "what deck to make", you always choose 1 pokemon as your main, then build the deck around that pokemon/strategy.

If you need anymore help, send me a PM.
