I always tech in 1 Shaymin in my Durant now, it is very useful in certain situations, but I really wouldn't reccomend running more than 1 because of the possibility of starting with it, and it can just be deadweight sometimes.

Didn't Magnezone Yanmega T16 the ECC? I don't think it deserves to be put that low... and Gothitelle is pretty much a dead deck, the only reason it worked is because nothing could reliably OHKO it in trainer lock, but with everything doing like 150+ damage now, that's a different story...

You're right, CaKE does have a hard time with these EX's, and standard CaKE isn't as good as it used to be, however, Electrode is still very useful. Yes, you can whiff on enerygymites, and it isn't as consistent as Celebi or Eelektrik, but for what it can get for you, it is very good. Straight...

It was a joke... 17

Ross' deck with Regigas and maybe Terrakion is certainly nothing to mess with, I expect it to win at least one or two states, I think most of the wins however will go to CMT. This is my tier list: Tier 1: CMT Thunderdome Zekrom/Eelektrick Ross' w/Regigias Tier 2: CaKE 6 Corners Reshiboar...

why in the world are you building a cheap deck when you have two mewtwos?

Also, I just noticed this, but it's "Tier", not "Teir." just saying...

Because it has great matchups against everything else in the format, just because a deck has one or two bad matchups doesn't mean it can't be tier 1. Luxchomp had some unfavorable matchups but it was still the BDIF.

This was great well, written article. The only thing is: why do you not mention Tornadus and Zapdos, as being the most popular Tailwind-users?

I will be there for VGC, bringing a few friends too, so it's gonna be a great time!

It's confusing still. Doesn't that mean that it should be listed as 2 wins for Zekrom/Eel/Tornadus?

Mewtwo EX is broken, but there are many counters to it. I hate the fact that the format has come to this (since it was such a good format before), but you either play mewtwo EX, or counter it, doing neither means you won't do very well at states. :C

^Yeah, that's pretty important. But still, If they get set up before you you're in trouble. Also you need Pluspowers consistantly to OHKO them.

Because of Skyarrow Bridge, and the fact that Mewtwo can use Eviolite, too, I'd say that it's an even matchup. Depending on who sets up first.

Great article. I like how, for the matchups, you didn't state whether the matchup was "favorable" or not, you just said how to play against the deck.

Good Job, I thought Cobalion/Kyurem/Electrode would be an autoloss for your deck, now i'm having second thoughts about playing it. >.<

I agree with this list for the most part. However, 8 energy is not enough, you should at least be running 9, and two Rescue Energy. 4 Mime Jr. is also not the way to go. Mime Jr. is more of a tech, and a pretty luck-based one, too. 3 Lost World is too many. 2 Is all you need. Picu is pretty...

I can't remember the last time Pikachu fought and it didn't want to.

haha, Great job going undefeated, Ross' deck is a hard deck to play!

I agree with this for the most part, Catcher is not healthy for the game. However, in the state the game was, they had almost no choice but to print Catcher. The format would've been very luck-based without it, so in this current situation, it is actually helping the skill-factor of the game...
