I really like this deck. I went 6-1 swiss last saturday. Lost in top 16. Today, I went 4-2 and got 10th with top 8 cut. Also, I took out engineers. And made a lot of other changes.
 
Well against the SP matchup (which is really common in my area) u always gotta discard 3energies against someone with 110Hp, it would be great to be able to do 10 more....Expert Belt??
 
Crobat g can be sprayed. I think the belt is better because you don´t want to use the bench for a crobat g

No.
It can be sprayed, but vs SP (which you need 110 damage to kill for), that's essentially the same as them spraying one of your Magnezone SF/Regirock. I played against this deck, and the sole reason they lost to me was that they had to Expert Belt each Magnezone. Had they not done that, I wouldn't have been able to take enough prizes from Magnezones to win.

It can't be sprayed behind a Spiritomb...Still Yoshi said it, your going to win the Luxchomp matches through Judges and consistency.
 
Just a report, Magnezone/Rock took a 2nd place at Indiana States. Continued testing still shows us that the ERL really is not required.
 
Well again, thank you Morten, this deck is amazing! I built it a few weeks ago, and its probably the most fun deck I have played..

our the man, and congrats!
 
Thanks for the comments and for the discusion of the decks future and the good techs discusion. I´m glad some are testing this deck and try to find the best list, if that exist.
 
Well I ended up 3-3 with it at AB provincials.....

One of the losses I ran out of energy against a Tangroth deck. (i ended up with 14)
another one of the losses I started with a double spiritomb start with no supporter until the guy set up a slowking of all things >.<
and the last loss was to an SP deck where I started with a spiritomb regirock start with no collectors....

I ended up playing 1-1-1 Machamp line aswell as ERL. The Machamp actually won me the arceus match up in round two (nice not having to discard 2-3 energys for each basic) Even more so when you are running low on energy. Altho the extra space may have cost me the game vs tangrowth.

ERL didn't help me finish any games of at all unfortunately. I might just stick with machamp and let the ERL go. Have you considered running call energy in here at all?
 
^ Deck doesn't require Call energy. I've more often than not seen decent hands with Regirocks, and the call would be detrimental late game. Warp Energy is far more important.

regirock start with only 2 warp energy can be absolutly brutal.....even if you are able to get a fighting in the discard pile early.....

I think id prefer playing with warp point and call....
 
^ I understand that it is a possibility that solo Regirock can happen, but the statistics shown from most of my own personal testing proves that the odds of it occurring are massively unlikely. (4 Magnemite/4 Spiritomb/2 Regi/1 Azelf/1 Unown Q/1 Skuntank G/etc) I think I've only had maybe one game out of like 15-20 games in which this happened, and I was still able to get at least to a warp energy. (I also run 4 Warp Energies in my deck, if that tells you anything)

I'll take the risk. Call really doesn't help you that much with as consistent an engine as this deck has.
 
I go with 3 warp now. I have thought of call energy but didn´t like it to be on the tech list because it is rarely useable. Kinda like uxie.
