Tyranitar/Mandibuzz/Krookodile Snipe Deck

Should I replace Tyranitar with the Emerging Powers Hydreigon now instead of near rotation time?

This deck basically revolves around sniping the foe's bench.(As the name suggests.)With Tyranitar,I can use Darkness Howl,which puts Twenty damage on everything not a dark type.Then,after doing that I can either A:continue the Howling.B:send up Krookodile and it's attack,Krookoroll.With Krookoroll,the sixty damage it normally does turns into onehundred damage if the opponent's pokemon already has atleast ten damage.The final option is to send up Mandibuzz.With it I can use Blindside to hit one of my opponents pokemon that already has damage for another fifty damage OR if my opponent has a stage two up,I'll just use Punishment to do fourty plus another sixty.Finally,the point of Lunatone and Solrock is the fact that with Solrock,if you have Lunatone in play,healing can't be done,meaning you can only move damage around.


Also,when Tyranitar Prime gets rotated,(we all know that will happen some day.)I plan on replacing it with Hydreigon from Red Collection.
 
It seams solid, but slow. If I'm correct, krookoroll costs four energies, and Darkness howl's cost is low, but t-tar has a heavy retreat cost.
 
also, I would swap hydregion for Tyranitar Prime. Although it's attack has a higher energy cost, it's ability let's you remedy that with 2 DCEs. Not to mention it's health and retreat are almost identical.
 
great deck. but yes, take out t-tar for hydreigon. much better for sniping. does 60 to active and 40 to TWO of their benches. that can possibly win a match in two or three turns, even if you have all six prizes. i know the super scoop up is to heal damage from your guys, but i'd make these changes.

-2 Super Scoop Up

+1 PONT
+1 Pokemon Communication

PONT is great in general for a hand refresh. and pokemon communication for search power.

other then that great deck. hope i helped!
 
Edited and bumped


I think I will change Tyranitar with Hydriegon,since if my opponent runs a deck of mainly Dark-types,I have no way to spread damage.Besides,this would make the deck my first Call of Legends-on deck.For now though,I'll leave Tyranitar on the list to see what others think.
