Strategy
Usual Keldeo/Blastoise strats. Get Blastoise out asap, charge Keldeo/Kyurem=win. Sounds easy enough.

I need halps!
Now, the thing is, this is a two year old deck, since I made the deck two years ago when Keldeo/Blastoise was just getting into the game, and basically stopped playing. So, all my cards are 2011/2012, and I'm not sure if some of them are getting rotated out since I haven't been playing tcg for two years now. Also I heard that they will introduce BW-on format, and that this rotation is killing(or already has) all the sets up to - NDX. So, what I'm asking you is to help me get back in the flow, and help me adjust my deck for this new format whatsoever. Really hope I can still use the Beaches :/.
 
RE: Keldeo EX/Blastoise/Blaq Kyurem EX

-4 energy retrieval
+4 superior energy retrieval

Superior energy retrieval is superior to energy retrieval because you can get 4 back, it's worth the discard requirement. If you plan on streaming black ballista every turn SER (superior energy retrieval) is the way to go.
 
Okay did some research and found out they decided to kill Cather. Now, am I supposed to throw all 4 Catchers out(I'm unlucky at flipping coins) or keep some? Instead of Catchers I would put in the Float stone, since according to most of the new decks, everybody uses Black Ballista Kyurem as a main, and use a Keldeo to Rush in to save the Ballista from dying. Tell me if I got something wrong, any other suggestions appreciated!
 
-4 Catcher
-1 Energy Search
-1 Keldeo (regular one)

+1 Black Kyurem BCR (regular)
+1 Professors Letter
+1 Skyla
+1 Tool Scrapper

You have some options for the last 2 slots. Super rod is definitely a nice card to have around, as it can make some Junipers a bit less painful, but your Pokemon lines are pretty thick, you it may be a bit unnecessary. If you're worried about Garbodor, definitely throw in another tool scrapper. It's a pretty tool-heavy format, so they won't go to waste, but they can clog things up in some match-ups. I like one Colress in here for endgame, or sometimes even mid-game; most decks play a heavy bench. Another idea is having a regular energy retrieval (just one) because sometimes you just don't have the hand to discard the energies for SER. It can also be good to just grab 2 energy, so you don't have to waste an SER on it.
