Strategy: Strategy is basically to get the Yveltal EX and Darkrai EX up as fast as possible using the regular Yveltal and dark patches. Using roller skates and bicycle to speed through the deck at your own discretion and pace. Beat down and win. Tell me what you think.
 
Hi Conk3r7,

Great deck. Include another Yveltal Ex if possible and some double colorless to increase speed.

Not sure on Roller Skates because the card is not reliable. Shauna would be better since the deck burns its hand fast and in this case shauna refills it most of the time. Also would like Professor's Letter since it is a search ard that thins the deck fast.

I would suggest dropping Red Card x2 and adding Sableye x2. With all of the items and especially using Roller Skates, you're going to want them back late game.

Thanks! I really appreciate it! I used the decklist you gave me and ive been playtesting it the last few days. I did add the yveltal but I didnt pull the third one til yesterday so it was more of an issue getting one lol but I did take the red cards out as well. The only difference I have between the list you gave is
-1 ultra ball
-1 N
+2 roller skates
I do understand that its a coin flip and unreliable but when it works I can just glide through the deck and when it doesnt work it doesnt exactly hurt me.
 
Hi Conk3r7,

How did the deck work for you? The changes sound fine. I personally am usually unlucky with coinflips. For that reason I shy away from cards that require a coinflip to work.
