Discussion Slowking Breakpoint

[uriel serjohn m. casal]

Last night, I had the opportunity to play my new deck which is Regice / Slowking deck. Although I'm not used to it just yet, I think that Slowking is a very useful card to disrupt. I've posted this thread to know what are your thoughts about the card.

I played against a variant last week that used toad/slowking/hammers and I wanted to cry in a corner. It's extremely disruptive and can be great in lock decks.

Wow, that must be very very hard to play with.

Right now I'm trying to slap together a houndoom slowking mill deck, so on top of discarding energies, you are putting energies on a benched shaymin of whatever you come across. Here is an example: you are playing against a Manectric/Yveltal deck and they have an Yveltal active with a Manectric benched. You have 2 slowking on the bench and flip heads on one and tails on the other. You send a double colorless energy to Manectric and flip heads on a crushing hammer and discard a dark energy. Then you melting horn and discard a dce and a muscle band.

Nice idea I think slowking will be a great addition in a milling deck where you can disrupt the attacks of your opponent I'll be trying to do the same with a durant slowking deck with this kind of tech the opponent will be limited to use sycamores. Slowking/durant/bunnelby with hammers and puzzle of time deck would be handy
