So, i really like the idea of sniping decks. I've been looking at alot of options and noticed a few cards I like, specifically Drapion Lv.X. Doing damage to the defending plus damaging a bench.. add in Metagross and you can 1HKO any basic with 60HP or less, and can easily 2hit Claydols and so on while also hitting the defending for a minimum of 40 maximum of 80 (depending on energy use and presence of Darkrai Lv.X).

What are some other good cards that can snipe? if they work into a dark deck well i'd be smitten.

Also, i realize that sniping is not very effective in the current metagame. i'm more concerned about the deck being fun than uber, otherwise I would run LuxChomp and be done with it.
 
Palkia G Lv. X and Garchomp C Lv. X are excellent snipers. Both of them hit for 80 to anything, so it's not hard to take out a tech or 3 with them.
 
The sarcasm really isn't necessary. I knew about Luxchomp decks but I didn't think of Gengar.

I want to avoid SP/G/C/ect pokemon if I can.. I dunno, with how rampant they are, I'd rather go for a rogue deck. If it comes down to it, though, I may utilize Garchomp C LvX..

I want to base the deck around Honchkrow's Darkness Restore. But I may end up going Drapion/Garchomp and not bother with Darkness restore at all. With a stadium Drapion can have free retreat allowing for easy swapping between Garchomp's free retreat and let Drapion attack between Garchomps Cooldowns.
 
I don't like Honchkrow G because it's reliant on the target to already have damage counters.. and Relicanth is nice but it's a tech against tools, and I already have something for that.

Moonlight is geting rotated.
 
Emoleon from Platinum. A deck based off of that made top cut at Nats. (I played it, and I beat it, but it worked pretty well.)

usually after a crobat g drop
 
Teching in Growbat G is a great idea, but then i've gotta regear the deck around SP pokemon because of Poketurn. If Claydol wasn't being rotated I would try Honchkrow G+Aerodactyl.. but meh.

You could try out BlastGatr, it is still underplayed and can snipe for high amounts of damage each turn.
 
Cacturne PL anyone DCE hit for 50
