Card of the Day: Marowak​
44-marowak.jpg
 
I heard of a deck using this with Eelektrik/Fliptini/Zapdos that almost made Top Cut at nationals. If whoever made that deck would like to explain more about it, I'd be interested to learn more about it.
 
This card actually has excellent attacking potential! On average you'll get one heads every time, so that's already 60, just like Donphan. Victini with Victory Start can help give you a second chance at double heads, which deals 120 damage!! That's on par with Kyurem EX's Hail Blizzard, just to put things in perspective.

The second attack will come in handy against any of the big-bad basic decks using Skyarrow Bridge as well.

90 HP is, again low, in this format, but Marowak can quite potentially OHKO monsters so fast, your opponent will lack the Energy to attack! Its a shame that this card was completely overlooked during the HGSS-On format, and we've only got 2 months left until the shift to BW-onward!! Mmm. Makes me pretty sad...
 
The main use for this card is probably to be discarded to boost Cubone's damage resistance in a fun league deck, but it's attacks are decent. If the second attack did 10 more damage, it would be able to OHKO fighting weak EX's, which would make a decent meta counter, but in general relying on Plus Power or flips to do good damage isn't a good idea.

4/10

It has some league potential but to be honest I probably wouldn't play it outside of there.
