Thats a great decklist there GodTrainer, but this deck you would have to do Azumarill's attack once and have at least 4 or more Water energies on it.
 
Blaziken ex: help to stop it.

O.k. for those of you who think balze ex is so broken, I'd first like to say this RAyquaza ex is way more broken. I mean My Gardy deck has a hard timea because that thing can just load on 5 energy and whipe me for 160, but I think I may have found help against both blaze ex and rayquaza ex. Buffer Peice yeah I know your crazy right. Well think about it Buffer Peice reduces damage by 20 so Blaze ex can't knock out gard, and many others and it forces Rayquaza player to be cautous abou brining out a 5 energied quaza.
 
Rayquaza is gone in a second with Crystal Shard, so it's not broken.
Alakazam can do a good job against all pokemon with weakness to psy.

But Exp-Sky will rotate out in June I think, than a new set comes.
What I don't like about this, you almost must play the high HP pokemon EX while some of the lesser HP pokemon have nice attacks.
Not everyone is able to buy/trade these cards.
 
Balze ex is too fast. Everyone is saying that it's slow but i run it and i casn get set up by the fifth turn every single time. and i only run 1 blaze ex. Ray is still the main power of the deck.

Shdwchu- the deck looks interesting. we'll see how it does on saturday at the CC in, IN.
 
Was just testing against my friend using my own Blaze deck...he built a Kingdra EX deck to counter Blaze decks that we're all expecting at States. Let me just say that it's really, really annoying...but it works great. Kingdra EX + Boost + Strength Charm is a one hit KO for blaziken EX. And, it only needs one stupid energy because of genetic memory, so it plays all the healer cards >_< It sets up just as fast, if not faster (turn 3 turn 4 Kingdra EX on average, from what I saw) than Blaziken EX, and you just sit there and plug away if it sits on the bench, or blow it away if it steps up. Manectric and Wobbuffett were not enough- the deck just healed it too quickly. Trying other measures, I'll let you know how it comes out.

If Kingdra ex is built first, the Blaziken ex player should focus on building Rayquaza ex to ko Kingdra ex. Healing shouldn't matter in that matchup as much.
 
Switch all water energy to AQ Kingdra (It's power) on the bench, put Crystal Shard on it and Rayquaza wouldn't be a problem.

That is why I use it. :)
 
Hey, When Feraligatr was out, it was Feraligatr vs Counter-gatr, and Gatr won. X) *chuckles*
Same concept, different card...choose a side? =)
*chuckles and shakes his head*
 
As someone who doesn't really play the game, I have a unique view of this particular situation.

And it looks to me, there's two groups of people... Those who throw up their arms and say the card should be banned and it's just going to lead to everyone playing the same decks over and over... and those who are toying with some really wild deck ideas, seeing what strange and unique ideas they can come up with...

Which group of people deseve more credit? :)

It IS difficult to get out a Blaziken, a Blaziken ex, a Manectric and enough energies, but with the right draw engine it will become possible. By the time someone's found it, there will be an anti-deck. Blaziken ex IS counterable, a wobby hits it for 100, blaze KOs 1 benched or retreats, nurses, you ko the blaze if it's still there.

I dun think so,
I've try this deck be4 (as i'm a Japanese version player)...

With the support of Linoone...

Use net search at the first turn, pull out Zigagoon, Torchic and a Electrike onto bench and
a Prof Oak's research at the second turn + seek out for 2 more cards......

So if the opponent cannot beat this deck before the fifth turn, the chance of getting win become less.
Don't forget, Aqua's Magnatric is a lighting type Pokemon, it can used for anti-water, or even anti-ghost!

The weakness seems nothing.

How long have you been playing?

I'm really sick of this. Honestly. Let me get one thing straight.

G8r was a deck. Blaziken EX is a supporting pokemon behind Ray or Tales. Cut me a break. Blaziken EX is a good card. It is hard to beat. If you're going to have this attitude, why do you even play?

Feraligatr was the focus of the deck. There were supporting cards: Trash Exchange, Misty's Wrath, Rev. Sect, etc. But Blaziken EX is not a DECK FOCUS. It's a SINGLE CARD. It can not change the game!

No card besides the three listed below have changed the game.

Professor Oak
Computer Search
Genesis Slowking

These cards are absolutely broken. Sneasel? Good point, but it has 60 HP. Get TUff out second turn if you're going first and Sneasel's dead. They have two Sneasels? Good point, but once you KO the second, they've got two Darkness in the discard.

Blaziken EX can't change the game. If you think so, then you might as well give up.

All flames are accepted, I want to see how many people will argue with me about this.
