What might Win

I think the term "autowin" has evolved to mean that a deck has a highly favorable matchup against another deck. Or that, all else being equal, that one deck will always beat another deck given both have ideal setups and both have similarly talented players.
 
I consider autowin to be more like autopilot where you have to think little because normally you have a big advantage.
 
Sabledonk is the deck I see that can beat any deck. Then again any deck can given the circumstances but sabledonk can best assure these "circumstances"

I will not be playing it though as its a subpar deck when it doesn't dominate early.
 
I think LuxChomp will win. It has the ability to beat every deck in the format, and a lot of good players seem to prefer it.
 
Unless of course the Mother Gengar is really just a Dialga deck with a tech 1-0-1 Gengar and Nidoqueen.
 
NOW, with that said, it shouldn't be played in ANY DECK THAT DOESN'T PLAY CLAYDOL.

I totally agree barring one exception.

Sablelock.

I've only had one instance in which I've totally crippled myself by playing Judge in this list (And I stress THREE in my list) and that was because I had three Cyrus Initiative in this hand and a Moonlight Stadium (an instance so totally unstatistical it hurts). You literally can do anything with one energy/gain or a DCE every turn that there is no problem "crippling" yourself since the only hurting you'll truly be doing is to your opponent. Not to mention you can easily bring up a Sableye and Conspiracy yourself to recover.

Not to mention you should hypothetically be up +1 card after judging since you'll likely be killing a Claydol that turn, no?
 
Its good when it goes off but hoping it goes off for 8-10 rounds of swiss against people that have played against it seems like a gamble. The deck is good don't get me wrong it just seems like its lost a little potincey after it lost the suprise factor.
 
Sablelock dies to anyone who can manage to get out a chatot. Once people figure out somebody is running sablock they get chatot when they can and they're fine.

Attach Special Dark to Sableye, Crobat G the active, Judge, Overconfident?

Not that easy, bub. And Honchkrow G works pretty well in this situation too.
