This list is much more consistent are cards such as Multi are horrible in this deck. This way, you have no combination of 2 energies which won't meet Shadow Chant's requirements; and Lass is nearly as important as Mentor in here; no joke.
4 TVR's are staples because they're better than Adventurer in this deck, since discarding after can mean maintaining a usable hand. Consider removing 1-1 Doom for 1-1 Umbreon ex, swap Reversals for Claw Fossils if you do so. Bandoom with Claw Fossil gets T2 40-50 nearly all the time, I've tried it.
RaiEggs is this deck's worst matchup, averaging a 60-40 on Bandoom if the opponent plays right. Tauros techs are uncommon, but can ruin your lock if included in the decklist. Luckily, 'doom shuts off Transceivers, so they'll have to have an actual Mentor to get Tauros out. Beating RaiEggs is hard, but possible if played right. Bandoom gets much better starts than RaiEggs from what I've seen, always go for Reversals on Pikachus/Raichus even if a fully-powered Eggs is attacking you; fighting resistance keeps him at bay.
The key to winning is Crystal Beach locking, or constantly Reversaling/Umbreoning lone Pikachus. If they begin with Eggs, the matchup becomes 70-30 Bandoom.
