Hello, everybody.
Thanks for waiting a loooooooooooooooong time for my next post. I was actually at a Pokémon Card State Championship, and I had a great time. I learned a lot of tricks and tips, and today I'm going to give you a mega-post on everything I learned.
My deck:
My deck used Cobalion ex as my main attacker, had Victini ex for its energy accelerator, and had Darmanitan, Simisear, and Infernape as secondary attackers. I had a mini Hypnotoxic Laser strategy going, but my main goal was to hit for at least 100 damage each turn consistently.
What I learned:
I got a lot of positive feedback from my deck and I learned a lot about how in-depth the game can go. These are the modifications that fellow players suggested (in addition to my thoughts afterwards).
More Cobalion ex
More Victini ex
Add Klinklang evo line
Remove Darmanitan, Simisear, and Infernape lines
Add Victory Piece Ace Spec
Add Super Rod
Here are some card reviews:
Cobalion ex - This card surpassed my expectations. Cobalion was my best attacker and really easy to energize with Victini. It can hit for 100 damage each turn
negating resistance or any other effect.
Victini ex- This is the ultimate energy accelerator. I could potentially set up in ONE TURN with this guy. I definitely recommend this for any fire deck that needs energy acceleration big-time (or a pretty good ex tech)
Hugh - Hugh was more than helpful in my deck. It helped my draw power while limiting my opponent. This helped almost every game I played.
Bicycle - Boo! Not that I have anything against bicycles, but all this card did was take up space in my hand. Unless you desperately need cards and you got hit with an N, this card is useless.
Hypnotoxic Laser - Absolutely amazing! This card was in every deck I played, and it really makes a difference. Believe me, its more than a gimmicky PlusPower. When combined with Virbank City Gym, you have at least a 30 damage boost for your attack. This card makes a difference.
Well, if you have any questions about my deck, or you want to start playing the Pokémon card game but don't know where to start, feel free to comment. Thanks!
