Deck Analysis - Sludggge.

What’s up guys? I am here with an analysis on a new deck I have been play testing extensively over the last few weeks.

I knew I wanted to build Plox when HG/SS came out, but after seeing some of the other cards in the set, I thought I should take advantage of some of the new overlooked cards and build something that isn’t simply a net-deck. The result is a high-power, high-consistency, top-tier deck worthy of dominating for the short remainder of the DP-GS format.

Darkrai Me a River

Darkrai Me a River

What’s up everyone? The following is a super fun deck I’ve been toying around with that revolves around the often overlooked legendary, Darkrai! After performing a Google search for a deck that involves him, I quickly realized that the poor guy simply isn’t seeing a lot of play, and the decks that I did find were certainly not competitive enough to keep up with today’s format.

So why is that? Well, first off, every Darkrai has a relatively low HP. But so what? So do SPs, …
