7-8 energy removal cards are in Durant. For the Mewtwo counter, what coolestman said. Durant kills Mewtwo so bad it’s not even funny. If they do build up the 5 energy needed to ko, they will probably have an extra few to get ahead. Black belt+plasma arrow= win. Granted, that probably won’t even be needed, but it’s just an example to show how hard Mewtwo falls against durant.

With Eviolite you take 30. That means you’re at 150. If they Lost burn, it’s still 4 since you’re negating 20 with that Eviolite. So you’re at a 170 range.

Mewtwo can 2 shot a lot of EXs, though. I don’t know how that’s so damning against Reshiram.

Nothing hurts more than energy droughting in a mirror match with the ants. Arrow is a clutch play, but 2 prism has always been enough for me.

I would rather have energy for Rotom but I can see that.

It’s sure going to make it’s stand in this format. I’m a bit afraid of facing it.

Attach energy, retreat, dynamotor onto eel for next time, or heck, even use those useless DCEs. Zekeels runs around 3 switches as well, and evolving into an eel with 0 energy attached would be a huge misplay in itself, that person would deserve to lose to the ant. Yes lost remover makes a difference, yet Zekeels can function perfectly well without using them for attacks. Zekeels also runs some shuffle/draw supporters such as PONT, they don’t necessarily run a 4/4 juniper/sage split and call the supporter line perfect, at least not any I have played. All it takes is 1 or 2 PONT (or maybe copycat…bleh…) in 3 turns to get the 4 needed lightning energy, or switch/DC combos.

Lastly, I’d say it’s worth noting that there is a small chance of the Zekeels player hitting a needed N by the last turn.

30+130 is 160. Reshiram EX has 180.

Catcher Eelektrik

What now?

Lost Remover DOES make a difference, 11-12 Lightning energy, which is the amount you can fit in Zekrom/Eels does not mean one per first three turns, especially without Juniper or Sage. You’d be lucky to get 2 and a DCE in 10 cards.

Last time I checked Durant WAS a Mewtwo counter.

It takes 5 energy for Mewtwo to OHKO an ant with Eviolite and Spec Metal. 70+50-20=100, 20 x 5=100.

The quickest that could happen is T2. That would require six different cards in your hand. I think Durant is in good hands so long as there are no god hands.
