Mewtwo Terrakions Help.

I found this deck, and I really liked it, but I am having a few issues with it...

Here's my list:
Mewtwo Terrakions

Pokemon: 8
3x Mewtwo EX 
3x Terrakion EX
2x Terrakion

Supporters: 12
4x Prof. Juniper
4x N
4x Bianca

Items: 27
3x Pluspower
3x Random Receiver
4x Pokémon Cather
3x Switch
3x Potion
3x Ultra Ball
2x Revive
2x EXP Share
1x Max Potion
1x Tool Scrapper
2x Energy Switch

Energy: 13
4x DCE
9x Fighting Energy

It's really close to the League A winning deck in JPN.

My issues:
1.) Should my supporter line be:
4x N
4x Prof. Juniper
3x Bianca
3x Cheren

2.) Should I have 2 Eviolite or 2 Revive

3.) With my 2 Basic energies, should I get Mewtwo Ready or, Terrakion first (and why)

4.) Should I use Landorus in this deck?

Thanks :)
 
I guess you could use landorus but since terrakion EX is already an energy accelerator it won't be too needed I guess, it depends on what kind of deck you want this to be. You should be trying to get terrakion ready most of the times because mewtwo is ideally more for mewtwo wars. I'd suggest
-1 mewtwo (2 is really enough)
-1 random receiver (2 is enough)
-1 potions (shouldn't be too needed. Maybe be around 2 should be enough)
-1 max potion (isn't needed IMO)
-1 Bianca (chere may help a lot as well)
-1-2 energy switch (not too needed)

+4 catcher (really is needed with BW on)
+2-3 cheren (good draw supporter for Bw on)

And I'd try to work in some more search cards. Maybe try to add in a zekrom? It helps a lot against tornadus EX. Space is pretty tight. Maybe
-1 plus power (2 should work)
-1 DCE (since only mewtwo uses it)

+1 super rod (may help immensely)
+1 other

The problem with eviolite is that tool scrapper really kills it. I know it may help, but tool scrapper is its main problem.
 
All those questions are all down to personal preference, as you've pretty much got the main structure of the deck sorted.

I personally don't see a need for Landorus in the deck as you would still get the T2 set-up with either Terrakion or Terrakion EX plus Mewtwo EX can already attack T1 if you have a DCE in hand. The only advantages to using Landorus is the stronger T2 pressure which is always a good thing, and the fact that it spreads to your opponents bench which will soften up things for easier mid/late game KO's. However you need to question whether you truly NEED Landorus: What match-ups would it help in? what would i have to drop to be able to fit it in? and would it just decrease the overall efficiency of the deck?

The Eviolite over Revive and supporter line-up is all down to you. You'll have to test to see which is better.

And as to whether you should set up Mewtwo or Terrakion T2, well, it depends what you're up against. If it were me, i would start with, or at least try to set up Terrakion EX T2 as 50 for 2 energy is pretty decent in a BW-On, plus it helps set up the rest of the field providing energy acceleration. Eel Variants will still see play as well as Darkrai EX so you've got the obvious type advantage. So a T2 100 on various targets is good (with Terrakion EX)

I've also noticed you list is lacking Pokemon Catcher and that your 4 cards short in your Items list (you've got 23 not 27). So it's obvious what you've got to do there. 4 Catcher.
 
^well that changes my suggestions a lot, since I was basing off that he had 60 cards already in his deck. No wonder space was so very tight... Then continuing my previous suggestions, keep the energy switches (may help) or use those spaces for others, add in more search cards, and if the rest of the remaining spaces if you have any more for whatever is needed.
 
I haven't tested the deck or a BW-On Format yet, but I would think that 2 Cilan would be amazing in this deck. I know it sucks that they can be hit with Random Reciever, so maybe just one but they would be great for grabbing those energies to attach with Terrakion EX's attack.
 
Well, during testing, it's been working without searching (Ultra ball) and my supporter line is iffy.

Banks guys for the help :)
And I'm really just looking for people to help with my questions i don't wanna change the list unless I really must.
