    Blog Iron Crushing the Format: An In-Depth Mega Scizor Review

    I only run one Flare Grunt. Enhanced hammer is mostly a dud as your M Scizor is going to be doing the same thing most of the time. Sure it opens up the stadium + energy double but so does flare grunt or just playing your own stadium. Until there's a proliferation of decks that want to run...

    Discussion Is Machamp-EX still viable?

    A big misconception I see here is that Machamp can't handle M Mewtwo which isn't the truth the attack of M Mewtwo doesn't get doubled for weakness. Neither does dmg change of course leaving just the first attack which isn't gonna be enough to take out Machamp. A fury belted Machamp requires 7...

    Blog Iron Crushing the Format: An In-Depth Mega Scizor Review

    I dumped the garb line for a 2-2 zoroark line with 2 dce's and have had much better results. Garb just isnt really necessary right now outside of greninja and volcanion and the latter is a loss anyways although zoroark can make it close. The stand in allows for easy gale thrust and the ability...

    Discussion So how viable will Greninja be next format?

    Initially Greninja is in trouble Garbodor just neuters the deck. It can't even Lysandre and ohko a Garb. There's no tool removal so the only option for Garb is to run another attacker, It has to be able to ohko Garb with little energy, or rely on back to back Lysandres. Neither sounds like a...

    Event M Audino-EX wins Worlds?!?

    So was his two hands in the semis against what was not a favorable matchup. He pulled that one out with some crazy draws. I don't think it matters that much in the end the Audino starts were too good and there were no shaymins on bench for easy snipes.

    Discussion Yanmega in PRC-On

    Yanmega would be best in a deck where he kinda fills a secondary role. Zoroark/Zebstrika/Yanmega could be a very strong mix providing a deck with good type coverage that has good prize trades with the EX heavy decks. Yanmega has a nice free retreat so if he does get locked out of attacks it's...

    Discussion New Energy Options?

    Magnezone and carbink break can both fuel big attacker's pretty fast and will still be around. I have a feeling Magnezone will become the preferred method after battle compressor rotates out due to filling a discard pile not being so easy. Clemont is available to help fish out energies for...

    Discussion Anti-Meta Serperior

    Forretress helps more in the worst matchups I think. It's a big bonus in the NM matchup as it can be chained to snipe a joltik and can ohko pumpkaboo in a pinch (this has come up enough for me to not be trivial.) Ariados just doesn't provide that kind of benefit and scoop ups are pretty free...
