I mean,Ive seen so many counter decks to Gardylade and Ive seen so many hate threads towards the deck. I just wanna know,why??Why is this deck deck so unliked by some??
Not having the Holon Engine is what is really hurting this format, not G&G or Magmortar.
Oh, and I agree with vanderbilt_grad that Mag is overall MUCH easier to play than G&G.
Oh, and I've played both GG and Mortar this season, and I felt that Mortar was harder to play. No big deal though, just opinion. I also agree with what you came up with, DarthPika, on that thread you had... about how GG is such a good deck that even a n00b looks good with it.
Many people don't like it because they loose to it. They make couners so that they don't loose to it as much. Now what is confusing me is that you are asking why people try to counter Gallade, yet look at your signature... it advocates Banette, a counter to GG. :lol::thumb:I mean,Ive seen so many counter decks to Gardylade and Ive seen so many hate threads towards the deck.

It depends on the build. A teched G&G can be very tricky to use, and by "use" I do not mean bashing your opponent into the ground with Gallade.
I found the main reason even a n00b can look good with G&G, is not Gardevoir, but Gallade. Any idiot with a G&G can flip a few prizes for a ohko. Not to hard to do, but if you really want to use the deck to its fullest potential, it takes quite a lot of skill.
And don't fool yourself, without g/g the format would be the same mess, DP on cards are so simple to use and so boring because they all work by simply beeing broken. Last Year you needed 2 Metagross 1 Nidoqueen and 1 Steelix Ex (that was an ex, had 2 terrible weaknesses and whos other attack pretty much sucked) to snipe for 100, now you need 1 magmortar and a DRE.
Last Year you needed a whole field of Metagross d and Dragonite d to reach a big dmg output/turn, now you need a gallade / a magmortar / a garchomp (110 DMG 4 3 NRGS wtf).
