Just another Durant

[silver116]

So I havent really been active in this format and decided to build a cheap competitive deck, I choose Durant. Please look at it:

Durant Disruption Deck

Pokemon: 10

4 Durant
2-2 Weavile
2 Rotom 

Supporters:  9

4 Collector 
3 Juniper
2 Pont

Trainer: 33

3 Catcher
3 Crushing hammer
3 level ball
3 Pokegear
4 Evolite
3 Revive
3 Lost Remover
3 Super Rod
4 Twin
3 Junk Arm
1 Alph

Energy: 8

4 Special Metal
4 Metal

What do u think?

 

[Slowbrother]

I think you could make room for Defense.

 

[silver116]

Any suggestions? U think it's prime for competition?

 

[Jirachi]

Try
-2-2 weaving (just isn't needed)
-1 rotom (only 1 needed)
-1-2 super rod (only 1-2 needed)
-1 Pokegear (2 may be enough)
-4 collector (dual ball is better in ths deck)

+4 dual ball (basics)
+1 mewtwo (good for countering)
+2-3 N (good for refreshment and disruption)
+1 juniper (I think 4 is needed for more draw supporters)
+1 PONT (3 is needed IMO)
+1 black belt (could help sometimes)
+1 junk arm or other

And this is just my preference but adding onto my suggestions above
-2 Pokegear
+2 random receiver (more consistent IMO)

I think the only search you need would be Collector. Maybe a Level Ball or two for Weavile, but I'd definately cut one By the way, that's a very interesting inclusion in Durant. Also, I'd drop Pokegear for Random Reciever. That way you can guarantee a Supporter.

 

[Fluttershy]

-2-2 Weavile
-1 Rotom

+3 Prism
+1 Mewtwo EX
+1 DCE

Some people take Durant for granted and stack a Mewtwo and start sweeping. If you add a Mewtwo EX and DCE, you could Twins for them and KO their stacked m2. It makes the opponent so mad

Thanks for the help! I made major changes but I'd like to keep weavile, maybe 1-1? And I find mewto and black belt useless as attacking isn't the point of the deck.

Mewtwo is needed since it acts as a counter to other mewtwos which many decks use to attack durant. Black belt just helps sometimes to do a surprise attack to get rid of one of their pokemon.

 

[silver116]

Kk. I might add xatu instead of mewtwo just because of the price.

 

[Jirachi]

or cobalion might help too since it uses the same kind of energy and is also kind of a good counter.

I find anything less than 10 Energy in this deck is asking to whiff on your Energy drops in a game. I would take out a Super Rod and an Eviolite for a Basic Metal and a Prism Energy. Prism Energy let's you attack with Rotom and can be pretty useful sometimes.

dmaster out.
