Nobody said that this is the same deck. I have stated that Charizard has the "Zoroark ability", which it absolutely does. Not exactly the same, but in the same category.I'm sorry but gotta hecc on you on that Zoroark ability thing. Zard's is so much worse than zoroark's ability lol. Keeping in mind Cincinno also has Zoro's EXACT ability, stage 1, and it barely sees play. Zoro's problem was ability AND attack being good. Zard's gets you half the cards at the double the effective cost of discarded cards in exchange for a wider selection of cards and no requirement to use. It is not the same at ALL lol, and definitely shouldn't be compared to Zoroark of all things lol.
Yes, it's possible that it's not a good deck at all - after all, there are many other VMAXes that can achieve a similar damage output with way less hassle - but it's obviously the most pushed non-VMAX we had in Sword & Shield. Other Stage 2's in this card block got around ~170 for 4 energy with a drawback. Charizard got 300 for 2, and with a useful ability to boot. It's just inelegant in design, how powercreeped a non-VMAX Stage 2 has to be to compete with the VMAXes of the world.It's a stage 2, that alone make this Charizard not a problem
