Three Wishes (Tornadus EX/Thunderus EX/Landorus EX)

So here's an idea I've been tossing around and would like your thoughts on it. The deck obviously focuses on the genies, with Tornadus EX being the main attacker, his second attack does 60 plus 30 for every Plasma Energy attached to it. Ideally you can start with either Thunderus EX or Landorus EX to start dishing out early damage, and for the Darkrai match up. hopefully you can get 1-2 colress Machiens off turn 1 to get a T2 Tornadus EX going, and then boos with Deoxys/more plasma Energy, Thunderus EX is also there to accelerate if you can get a plasma in the discard or when a Tornadus EX is knocked out. Landorus (Promo) is for a non EX attacker, and his second attack is just shy of Kyurm's (PLF).

So its all Theory-Mon ATM, but I think it could work, what do you guys think? I know I need a lot of work on the trainers, since I would like to somehow fit in plasma Badge for Lando EX to get the boost off of Deoxys EX. I know it is not very "Tight" right now, that's why I'm posting this IDEA to see if its worth assembling, (all I really need is the Promo Lando and Tornadus EX) or if its just a complete pile of useless paper. so feel free to pick it apart and critique it as you see fit. just please try not to change it so much that it just becomes a standard plasma list with Tornadus EX. I want to build the deck so that it is Plasma in the sense that it uses the great engine that this format gave us but its its own deck. Not just TDK with techs. so without Further ado, "Three Wishes"

Strategy

Get Tornadus EX set up with 2-3 Plasma Energy and a DCE and start swinging for 150-210 with Deoxys EX. Use Landorus EX to spread if needed/deal with Darkrai and the promo Lando is for a non EX atttacker. Thunderus EX is self explanitory, early damage/energy acceleration.

EDIT: After Play testing pretty thoroughly on PlayTCG I am proud to say that the deck is pretty effective, I have taken on various meta decks from plasma, Blastoise, Darkrai Hammer time, Virgen and several big basic decks and it fairs very well against most of them.

Blatoise: 8 games: This testing was pretty much what you'd if I can control his Blatoise/Keldeo it is easily my favor if not I have a very hard time winning against a BKEX every turn.

Plasma: 15 games: pretty even, I can swing much harder then other plasma builds. thus giving me easy OHKO on EX's

Darkrai Hammer time: 2 games: hate this match, only one I lost, I had terrible set up and couldn't attack for 4 turns before he got Double Enhanced Hammer going and I just couldn't keep energy on the field by that time I had 14 of 15 energies in the discard pile and I conceed.

VirGen: 8 games: its pretty easy to control, I OHKO everything and he 2 shots everything.

Overall I think I'm going to try and get the cards IRL and prob take this deck to BR.
 
Hmm, I could test this. If they released the triple boosters in the US! I can playtest with you if you want. On PlayTCG

This does seem solid right now.
 
If you're running Deoxys, and Thunderus you might as well run Lugia EX as a one of right?

Anyways, Porygon-Z could be a nice little tech in this deck, finding room for a 2-2 line of it would be quite fun though
 
What do you think about adding Plasma Frigate, to cancel weakness on my Pokemon? it would help against pretty much the 3 big threats, plasma, Fighting decks (Lando EX/Terriakian) and Blastoise Decks.also I might try to squeeze in 1-2 Shadow Triad to help recover/accel Plasma Energy or get back Landorus/Tornadus EX/Thunderus EX
 
So after play testing this a bit it works wonders I need to adjust the TSS lines a bit but I think I want to fit in 1-2 tool scrapper. Also I'm looking at an additional non-EX, non plasma attacker, any suggestions? I was thinking retaliate terrakian, but I'm debating if I want a 3rd fighting type attacker. I know I could use absol but he's plasma and I was trying to avoid that.

Also what do you guys think about using Gaia hammer landorus instead of promo lando?
 
If you need an attacker that hits through safeguard and klingklang, you can use latias ex. It's also immune to damage from those Pokemon.

That is true, plus it would help a lot against VirGen and several other popular decks, ill have to think about testing this some more.
