Too bad he isn't going. loool actually it isn't.
Robby and his dad are using up their an jeremy's beaches, so that's out too.
I need two too soooo I've been asking around as well.

Robby is playing blasty still? It doesn't lose to Garb?
 
Anyone on "The List" is going and I'm too lazy to take people off. So therefore by extension RogueChomp is going :p
 
I'll need three if I were to play it >_<

Does anyone else have thoughts on what to play? Every deck seems to lose really hard to three other popular decks >_>
 
Have you thought of Bouffalant/Eels? I also have 3 coba but my bro is using them :s

You could also try Empire or maybe even Hammertime...
 
I think PlasmaKlang is the play. I'm also liking the idea of EtherDex/Bouffalant/Landorus EX/LaserBank. Possibly minus the EtherDex and plus Exp. Share or Energy Switch.
 
IDK about PlasmaKlang, it loses to Rayeels, Garb, and some Blastoise and anything else that techs for it. EtherDex is too inconsistent from what I've found in my testing. I might just play Darkrai, I have a really good list and am really good at playing it. The other option is Big Basics but that's boring and gets wrecked by Blastoise.
 
The PlasmaKlang I tested before States and today hasn't lost to any Victini techs, hammers, etc.In fact, today I went against 4 Victini techs in 4 decks, and didn't lose to a single one.
PlasmaKlang is a strong play because everyone thought it died week 3 and will tech for Garbodor instead, which is by far a larger, stronger threat. That being said, Garbodor will only be so popular as it is expected now, unlike during States. And you can only tech so much. The only deck that I find has a huge advantage against KK is RayEels obviously, and Garbodor is difficult but not impossible. Blastoise Keldeo can tech for Rayeels or Plasma Klang, teching for both would lose consistency. Tool Scrapper is a given in BK to prevent the Garbodor autoloss (it IS and autoloss without it).
I'm stuck between KK, B/K, Garbodor, and I think that's all. Unfortunately for 2 of those I need at least 1 beach, for BK I need 2.
 
Eh I'll probably just stick to darkrai, he hasn't failed me yet :D (excluding Fall regs, but that's another story)

But now the question for me is... which darkrai variant should I play? Hammers? Lasers? Hammers/Lasers? Tini tech? Ah decisions decisions :p
 
Straight Darkrai/Lasers works pretty well, although I admit Darkrai/Tornadus/Bouffalant is pretty good too. Consistency is the key in Darkrai, so I would say no to the hammers. When I tested them, they never seemed to help out that much except in 1-2 matchups, and the consistency was much more helpful in those anyway.
 
Yeah I'm really only thinking about hammers for the klinklang match up, but like you said consistency > gimmicks. So right now I'm testing Darkrai and friends (Darkrai/DCE/Attackers) and so far it's not so bad although it's not quite as consistent as straight up darkrai, but I think I can live with it since it improves my plasmaklang matchup quite a bit...
 
Now I would only need 1 beach if I were to borrow it. Is there a chance anyone can lend?

Maybe if someone would have accepted a certain friends' offer... ;)
