Decklist

4 Absol [SW]
4-2-2 Glaceon Lv.X [RR-RR-MD]
1 Espeon
1 Umbreon
3-1 Giratina Lv.X [PL9-PL]
18 Pokemon

4 Bebe
4 Roseanne
4 Buck
4 PokeDrawer
3 Warp Point
2 Moonlight Stadium
3 Quick Ball
1 Luxury Ball
2 Level Max
27 Trainers

6 Water Energy
5 Psychic Energy
4 Upper Energy
15 Energy

Strategy: Absol is the starter, hampering the opponents hand. Keep using Baleful Wind until Giratina, Glaceon and Cresselia are built up. Use Glaceon's Ice Bind as the main attack, while destroying your opponents hand some more. Giratina also offers more hand control. Cresselia is a healer, as Glaceon has low HP, 120+10 with every PokeBody activated, as the body reduces all damage by 10.

I would like to fit in a 4th Level Max, as well as some upper energy

Yeah, about that. This deck is even worse than your article. Your Article at least had some synergy between the cards that were in it. This is a deck that has a lack of synergy to the highest degree.

For one Giratina is just not a good card no matter how it is played because it takes to damn long to setup. Cresselia shouldn't be used in this deck because it as well takes to long to setup and only helps the deck in a minor way.
 
how does it lack synergy? They are disruption.

whoops.

I'll add 1 Level Max, as well as 2 Upper Energy to fill in the blank spots.

Disruption doesn't win the game, at least not the way your playing it. If your deck was focused on disruption you'd be playing Diagla G as opposed to Glaceon. take a look at any Diagla G/ Plakia G deck and then you'll know how a disruptive deck is really played. However as I said before Disruption does not win the game, it only helps to stall your opponent's setup.
 
I don't care if it wins games or loses games, I'm playing it like this.

Glaceon>Dialga

Totally my personal opinion. I still have no idea how it became more then a simple tech.

Ummm . . . this is how most people decide if a deck is good or not.

Glaceon>Dialga

Totally my personal opinion. I still have no idea how it became more then a simple tech.

Dialga IS a mediocre Pokemon in itself, but the SP Support makes it a great disruptive tank that can hit for decent damage. I don't think that is really a matter of opinion, more like you are in denial.

Anyway, Absol with its Fighting Weakness probably won't last more than a turn, so don't count on being able to hide behind it to set up too much.

Quick Ball isn't very efficient with so many different Pokemon, some staple draw would help the deck get set up faster. Seeing as you want disruption, why not replace Buck with TG Mars?

-3 Quick Ball
-1 Warp Point
-4 Buck

+2-2 Claydol (or 3-1 Uxie, your choice)
+4 TGM

There IS some synergy in the deck. I guess the idea is to kill their hand and then lock their Uxies and Claydols with Glaceon to prevent them recovering. Uxie's fast draw will help you get set up fast enough to try and make this work. You might also try Mesprits for those times when you can't get a T2/3 Glaceon. Premier Ball would be useful with 3 Lv X's.

BTW, you mention Cresselia in your strategy, but I don't see it in the decklist . . .

EDIT:

Had a think and came up with this:

Pokemon (20)

3-2-2 Glaceon LV X
1 Espeon
2 Mesprit
2 Gira (Let Loose)
4 Absol SW
3-1 Uxie LV X

Trainers (26)

4 Roseanne
4 Bebe
4 Mars
1 Cynthia
3 Level Max
3 Moonlight
1 Luxury Ball
2 Premier Ball
2 Night M.
2 Warp Point

Energy (14)

4 Upper/Call
10 Water

Disruption doesn't win the game.

I belive all I have to say is Wager.

countless # or my games have gone to wager.. losing a Rock paper scissors shoot game then having candies/claydols //supporters shuffled in .. then you draw -energy-switch-NM not a very good change of hands... id say some games are lost by distruption..

Well dialga stops glaceon and hits for weakness :/
thats the only reason I see that hurts this deck



Unless you discard it with absol :thumb:

Look man. IN order to be a good player you should at least understand why certain cards are good and why certain cards are bad. You don't have to like it or even play these cards to have fun, but in order to get better as a player you should at least put effort into understanding why cards are good or bad regardless of whether you'll play them. Saying Glaceon Lv. X is better than Dialga G Lv. X wrong. Dialga G Lv. X is much better than Glaceon Lv. X. The fact of the matter is that Dialga G Lv. X has more versatility than Glaceon Lv. X which is why it beats Glaceon Lv. X. Also the reason why it became more than a tech is because there cards out there that make using it very easy.
 
Suicide omg, so Just because dialga beats glaceon he shouldnt play a glaceon deck ? This is his Deck idea, he is asking you to give him a little feedback, not tell him what a good player should know lol. if you dont have anything constructive to say then dont post, calling someones article bad and telling him dialga palkia is good doesnt really help him with his deck list. I understand what your trying to do with the list bippa, but i think your probably gonna want to drop the giratina X and the and focus on a T2 Glace X. This is like just an outline, the trainer line is up to you but this is a really tough deck to play in this format. Good Luck and hope this helps. Try LV MAX and BTS if you wanna have fun with it.

4-3-1 Glaceon Lv X
2 Azelf LA
3-1 Uxie LA
1 Mesprit LA
1 Umbreon
1 Espeon
1 Giratina (Let Loose)

3 BTS
4 Lv MAX
