How to beat the Deck above you...

I'm not going to comment on that, since it would destroy the topic

And because you know you're full of it.

Deck above is Magmortar.

Counter is Salamence Kingdra, abuse weakness with Kingdra while powering up Salamence for repeat kills.
 
Above: Sallly Kingdra

Counter: Raichu Lv.X

Raichu is faster than Sally Kingdra and it can do repeative kills smoothly than them :p

And can someone stop with Sallmence variants? Its getting OLD...
 
Deck above is Raichu Lv X

Counter is Salamence Dialga G Lv X.

Raichu doesn't have enough HP for Salamence's body to work, so you may as well drop Dialga and shut the entire show down. Salamence can easily clean up once Raichu is neutered.
 
~sigh~ You know, the deck (Cradily/Cherim/Shaymin) would work, but not on turn one. It's just too slow.

Anyway, deck above is Salamence Kingdra.

Counter: Neo-Speed Empoleon (The type running Empoleon X)

Get out Empoleon quickly, beat down Salamence and its earlier forms on the bench. Take out Kingdra from there.

Edit: Why is it that, every time I post, there's always exactly two people that post while I'm typing? The answer: I get distracted.

Deck directly above me is Salamence/Dialga G

Counter: ... Wait, what? Doesn't that deck cancel itself out!? Oh well; Garchomp X Deck with Magmortar.

Abuse Sally's weakness, discard Magmortar and fire energies, bring them back with Restore and finish off Dialga G.
 
You do realize Kingdra would outspeed you and punch your face in, while Salamence KOs you for two energy and a Plus Power, right?
 
I never said it doesn't work. However, Bippa keeps saying T1 70. HUGE difference. It's like comparing a linear function to a sine function.

Above is Empoleon
Counter with Sally Raichu
 
You don't need all 4 Cherrim, 1 or 2 suffices for T1, as long as all 4 are out T2

Deck above: Salamence/Raichu

Counter: AMU

Salamence is pointless, and it is starting a trend so whatever. Raichu also is too slow for AMU

So you need 14 cards on T2. As well as 5 Basics, 1 of which is a fossil, on t1. Again, you are so full of it and so bad at covering it up.

Deck above is AMU

Counter is Salamence Mewtwo Lv X.

Mewtwo locks AMU while it beats down and powers up Salamence.
 
We have BlissCario on top
Kill it with fire, I mean Salamence Gallade

Gallade loves Rainbow and will run through the fat blisseys

Not true. Neo Speed Empo can rival Kingdra in speed and set up, if played correctly.

HAHAHAHAHA no. 2 energy for 40 vs 1 energy for 60+20. You have nothing over Kingdra, whereas with Crobat/Plus Power it THKO's you. You, in return... would need to Level Up and use a Plus Power to THKO it, and considering it probably setup a turn before you, Kingdra will draw first blood.

Don't waste my time with bad answers you clearly didn't think about.

Sparta, I'm really sick of your ignorance.

Neo Speed Empo uses Kyogre to power up. The normal three turns it would take to get fully powered up is reduced to one. In terms of leveling up/evolving, Level Max, Rare Candy, and other cards come to mind.

Don't waste your time with bad arguments that miss critical points.

I'm sick of your bad attempts to argue with and insult me. At least put more effort in.

So you use a basic to power up a stage two in order to be able to NOT kill Kingdra, who still THKOs you and kills Kyogre as well (60 from the first attack, then 40 from the other two, Killing Empoleon from the first colateral damage then two hits of 60). Once I kill you, you are left with an Underpowered Empoleon vs my Kingdra, And Salamence can STILL destroy you with a Plus Power. You fail. Again.

Addressed your critical points of fail. Let me know when I can start trying.

Kingdra is dead anyways. Empoleon destroys it (I have actually gone 6-0 against a Kingdra)
Click to expand...

6-0 shouldn't be the case, honestly, unless the build you're facing is bad. With a particular Empoleon Build and the proper Kingdra build, the majority of wins should go to the Empoleon Build, but it by no means is a 100% guarantee.

Effort? I have more important things to worry about. I have a job, I have to help my mom get through a divorce that's putting her through poverty, and, further more, I have a life. Why would I try to put effort into insulting some little brat on the internet?

So you use a basic to power up a stage two in order to be able to NOT kill Kingdra, who still THKOs you and kills Kyogre as well (60 from the first attack, then 40 from the other two, Killing Empoleon from the first colateral damage then two hits of 60). Once I kill you, you are left with an Underpowered Empoleon vs my Kingdra, And Salamence can STILL destroy you with a Plus Power. You fail. Again.

... Your logic fails. Big time. Assuming I get the first turn, the Piplup that's benched will get its three energies, and on my second turn I can BTS to get up to at least Empoleon, or I could Rare Candy and Level Max to get out the X. By this time, I will be able to one-shot either your Kingdra or one of your benched Pokemon, seeing as I highly doubt you will have both Kingdra and Salamence out on turn one. If I go second, it essentially plays out the same way, except I can get Empoleon out much faster. In the latter scenario, your Kingdra has the potential of being killed off as a Horsea.

Addressed your critical points of fail. Let me know when I can start trying.

SPARTA - You seriously need to stop flaming Armored Mewtwo. It's ignorant and rude.

The rules of this thread allow me to argue with a terrible idea for a counter. He decided to call me ignorant, obviously he wishes for there to be insults added to the debate. And as for rude, ask me how much I care, I treat rudeness with an equal or greater amount. Incidentally, you are off topic by not discussing a deck OR by addressing the topic. Stop spamming.
