LaserBank is awesome since it lets you OHKO Kyurems with Megalo Cannon.
I'll have to test to see whether Drifblim or LaserBank is better against TDK. The next tournament in my area's going to be Regionals and my friend thinks it'll be a VirGen/TDK/Garbodor fest.

Not really auto-loss... I'm more than likely going to play Drifblim at Regionals unless LaserBank seems very much better in testing.

It can discard Plasma Energy but that's it.

Shadow Steal also does a lot against that deck, if they're running Colress Machine's or 4 Plasma Energy. Using Derail is too slow, and you often have to attach an energy or 2 to use it, so maybe including some Enhanced Hammers would be good for that match up.
I'm so conflicted on whether to use Drifblim or LaserBank

My friend thinks Regionals is gonna have a bunch of VirGen/TDK/Garbodor... Hmm.....

Well, if you use Derail, which now costs 1 or 2 energy, you're putting yourself behind on damage, which isn't a good thing, especially in a mirror match. Even if you manage to discard an Energy, they'll just attach another Grass, and probably Catcher your highest-powered EX/most vulnerable EX, and get ahead on the prize trade. You usually only want to use Shadow Steal when it does 150-200 damage, or when you don't have the Energy to use anything else, and if the latter ever happens, you're going to lose most of the time.

I'm thinking I might not run Drifblim OR LaserBank and just go for consistency. That's what my friend thinks I should do but I'll see if any VirGen decks make top 8 at the KO

Yeah I just saw that.... Trying to find the list but with no luck.
