Garchomp/altaria doesnt need anything aside from holos from drx and will be a great cheap deck to play until the tins get released.

Not really. 4 Garchomp and 4 Altaria are 80$. 2 Mewtwo are 60$. It would be cheaper to build Zekrom/Eelektrik than it would be to build Garchomp/Altaria...
 
Garchomps are under $10 and Altaria is under $5. You can find Darkrai and Mewtwo around $20 if you look hard enough. If you don't want to spend money on the EXs then play a deck that doesn't use any. Ninetales/Amoongus is the first one that comes to mind.
 
$20 makes sense. Some (many?) players will unload excess Mewtwo and Darkrai since the price will be capped once the tins are out and widely available.

Garchomps are $14 now. Darkrai isn't under $25 no matter where you look, and that's if you're lucky. Ninetales decks will fail, as will Garchomp/Altaria. Turn 2 80-100 sounds nice, but they just can't stand up to Darkrai or cheap catcher KO's on Altarias.

garchomp and altaria are dirt cheap right now since people are finding out it's not a good deck. My store is selling them @ 7 a piece for chomp and 2 for altaria.

80 dollars for the 8 cards. MAYBE 20-25(depending on catcher count). Thats about as cheap a deck as youll be able to build and still be competitive. And since when does the deck play mewtwos. Seems like adding in dce along with fighting and blend energy would get clunky.
 
Weve had emerging powers pretty much everywhere, and not much Noble Victories. LOL

When will we get a break? and I wonder what the Winter tins will feature.

As for the cards, they've seen decline as anti-ex decks started popping up, so the cards would sell for around $8?
Probably not reccomended. just by 5 DEX packs.
