RE: Virizion EX Variants
But, if you can, don't show your opponents you play drifloon too early. If turn 1 they only see a Virizion EX, and not a balloon contender, then they may attach/discard more DCE's early game. The enhanced hammers give it away a little, but until a drifloon comes down the hammers might just be a tech for a straight VirGen build.
I get that they will be set up really fast, and the only way to win is to set up just as quickly. But, just in perspective, 9/10 times does VirGen set up well. Only about 7/10 times does Pyroar set up well, a lot of times they run into a supporter, energy, or even pokemon drought. I more hope that after enough N's my opponent will draw a bad hand rather then legitimately 'beating' the deck fair in square.
Lastly, am I missing something about the stadium? I really haven't seen any Pyroar builds actually use a stadium recently. I've seen mountain ring in the past, but I thought the idea ran out and the deck needed more room/cuts for battle compressors and VS seekers? Idk, it could just be my local meta though.
