N glitch has won me and lost me a lot of games on PTCGO, let me know when they fix it, it's so annoying.
 
I just played against a turbo Durant deck for the first time tonight at league play. I was able to barely scrape off a victory with my own ReshiBoar-style deck. My deck would have been gone the turn after I drew my sixth prize (3 cards left, 3 Durant on opponent's bench). I was surprised and annoyed at how this Durant deck disrupted my early setup, and it only got worse as the game went on. I knew the objective of the turbo Durant deck, but I was totally caught off guard at how quickly and effectively it works. I am very impressed with this Durant strategy. Even though my deck (and TyRam decks) has a major type advantage, Durant still poses a major threat. This is one deck strategy to look out for.

Yep Durant is not going anywhere, I suspect it to be even more popular when we get to Sates and Spring Regionals.
 
Played Durant, not this list, in cities, went 4-1 with it, missing top 4 cut by 2 places. Only game I lost was due to bad luck and I beat 2 reshiphlosions.

Rainbow is there just in case for Rotom, you can take them out if you want. You needed more draw power so I added in 4 Juniper and 2 PONT. You can T1/T2 easily with this list unless you get a horrible start. Cobalion is there for when your opponent has only one attacker on the field. Super Rod is useful for getting multiple Durants out of the discard and possibly getting them out with Collector or Dual Ball. It is just an out if you have no Revive. FSL is there just for luxury, it serves basically the same purpose as Super Rod but it is nifty in the mirror. You can take FSL out if you wish too.
