How much Energy do YOU use?

[Pokeman]

I use anywhere 6-12, but wen the next format comes out I'll be using probally 14 like back 3 years ago.

 

[PheonyxXx]

Depending on my deck. Blastoise/Gatr - 15 Water, SP decks - 6-10, I have quite a few different decks. but I go typically any where between 5 and 15, and 15 was my average in the old base set days as well. So not much has really changed I guess.

 

[Porygon-X]

Oh, and my Porygon-Z deck (my personal favorite deck) runs 4 DCE, and 2 Cyclone.

 

[Matryoshka]

In my current deck:

4 Special Dark

for Mightyena Donk

 

[chrlrssll]

just built a deck with 18 fire energy and in 6 hands pulled one energy.... perhaps i need more?

 

[FireMeowth]

I currently use 19 Energy Cards, as that's how the Toxic SP Theme Deck is built. It's so fun to play, too~

My next deck (which will probably be completed this week) will have 21 Energy Cards - it's a really Energy-based deck, so...

 

[TheBugManiac]

In the fun deck I just built for league, I don't play ANY energy cards. Tyrogue HGSS donk FTW!

 

[Serperior]

I only use about ten to fifteen Energy in the decks I use. The deck I currently run uses eleven.

 

[StealthAngel667]

I tend to use a bit too much energy because I fear drought, because of bad prizes. I currently run like 10 in Crobatech, in Nidoqueen I ran 12 or so, in Speedrill 8. LuxChomp would also be around 10: 4 Basic, 2 Call, 4 DCE.

[Mr.Ferrari]

Most deck use under 14 energy cards nless energy plays some vital role in the deck to say boast attack damage or draw.

I usally play no more then 9 energy depending on the deck when I use poliwrath I dont need as many energy as I h ave DCE but say in My Torterra I play 12 energy since it gets its power from energy cards being attached.

 

[Kittymew]

16 Fire in my last deck, no special energy. Hudda hudda hudda.

 

[Card Slinger J]

Post-Rotation wise once we lose Roseanne's in favor of Interviewer's I'd say the standard amount will be around 15-16 maybe more depending on deck space and what we lose from DP-On. Some might include DCE since it will still be legal.

Currently I run about 13 energies in my BlastiGatr deck and 12 in my CharPhlosion deck.

 

[sturtle]

I currently run 14. It may seem like a lot, but it runs perfectly.

 

[konter5683]

i find that 12-15 is a good amount for decks. anymore then that and it is just too clogged

 

[festizzio]

Scizor: 12
Beedrill: 6-7

 

[NinjaSamurai]

I have a question. If a deck is 60 cards, then why run 6-7. You only have a 1 in 10 chance in drawing one. How do you make sure you get them.

 

[Pencil]

You start out with a hand of seven cards, and there is a large chance that there will be at least one energy in your hand. If not, you might have some Rosy's or stuff like that.
