Late to the party, but I wanted to say that the Snorlax Block matchup is brilliant. All you have to do is set up two or three Froslass and just sit and wait. Opponent is completely helpless.

I just tried out this deck list in 4 matches and won all 4! Not too shabby! A little awkward at first and a little inconsistent with the draw support, but overall not bad. I even was able to comeback from a 2-6 prize card deficit. One thing I like about this deck is the constant 3 prize turns if you can pull it off!

For the Raging Bolt matchup is not that bad, but you have to play it more control style, setup 3 froslass, don't bench any 2 prize pokemons and stall. They autolose if they bench 2 teal masks + squak. They need 6 turns to win and in the meantime 3 froslass would deal like 300 dmg

I played against this deck on the first week of Twilight Mascarade. I was definitely the best way to play this Greninja ex. 🙌🏽 Edit: Mirage Barrage is actually doing what it’s supposed to. Greninja’s attack says “discard two energies. THEN you deal 120 damage to two Pokémon.” Because that is the case, and by the time the damage is applied Greninja no longer has DTE, it cannot decrease the damage of the attack.

This is the only deck that I have tried before I saw it on your channel and I had so much fun playing it. I still play it every now and again sometimes substitute frostlass for Pidgey

I had my longest losing streak ever using a deck that was just a couple cards off from this list. 11 straight Ls. Even lost to a Blastoise ex that was playing Candace as their main supporter. Every hand was always awkward, I was constantly one piece off and just getting steam rolled by meta decks. My only two wins were both against Lugia.

Yeah same, I also tried a version of this deck with Pidgeot, and while it’s a more consistent draw engine, it still requires a lot of pieces and could take longer to set up if you can’t find rare candy in time. I might try adding a 1-1 Bibarel line…

Happy you did this dexk review. Would have loved to see you put some more spice into it tho. Perhaps a follow up vid? Just using block cards to stall seems solid.

Ptcg would need to make 'Tera crowns' as tool cards for each type in the card game which you can attach to any pokemon except already Tera pokemon cards. And each Tera card would have an effect. Like Tera fire would boost that pokemon attacks or Tera normal makes the attack cost of that pokemon all colorless.

Respect for using water Greninja ex! I love using Greninja cards so a double Gren deck seems fun to use!

I don’t think the double turbo lessens the damage of Mirage Barrage because the damage done from greninja ex is an effect of the attack and not the actual attack damage itself. But it would lessen the damage of Shinobi because its damage is from the actual attack

You mentioned a bug with DTE not reducing damage on mirage barrage - I don't think it's a bug. You discarded the DTE before you attacked, so it's effect ended. Unless it doesn't work that way on other pokemon that make you discard an energy to do damage...

100% just makes no sense to not include it, even beat a raging bolt because of it.

This deck would be a lot of fun (probably not very good) with weezing that did damage for being in the active. He also had a spread that did 40 to active and 20 to everything damaged. That +dmg pump would be a lot of fun

is dte supposed to be reducing the dmg though? the 120x2 is after all not the attk's dmg but the effect of the attack, no?

@MaksimPlayzYT

5 күн бұрын

It does 120 because the card states to discard 2 energy BEFORE the 120x2 damage, therefore by the time you deal damage the dte damage reducer is gone

What do you say, 100 or 120 discarding the DTE? In the regulations it is only in point F5 where they mention the modification that the energies make, long after point D in which the DTE is discarded. I think it does 120 damage*2

Awesome Man!

Froslass is my favorite card from this format. It helps so many decks

This deck scares me a bit if i dont have my manaphy on the bench. By the time greninja and froslass placed on the spot, i put my manaphy ahead of the time so it can last long against them (aside from the froslass effect)

Still no Palafin EX to go with Graninja?

Have you thought about revisiting ting lu ex with froslass?? Seems like a match made in heaven

what about greninja with the new boomerang energy for mirage barrage? (that attack name is fun to say)

My list uses 2 of the paralysis frogadier to try to luck my way through the raging bolts

I always love playing against it with my dragapult turbo deck, but with lugia V it's a hard matchup

This is my favorite deck to play for fun.

i think the game didnt reduce the damage of the mirage barrage because the energy that you discarded was the double energy so its penalty wouldn't be applied. thats just my running theory tho

Bro you should have seen my game. I lost like 10 games in a row because of me getting bad draws and like the opponent literally gets anything he wants

Can you try a variant of this build instead of Greninja you are using Venomoth with Perplexing Powder(Professor Gnome’s Build), and ace spec Hyper Aroma if possible with your variation

Hoping greninja become more meta when terapagos and all the new normal pokemon coming in shrouded fable are released

if raging bolt bench 3 ogerpon against greninja the matchup is free: bench 3-4 froslass, make frokies, cleffa and manaphy sacrifices on the active and win in 5 turns before they can get 6 prizes on your single prize only board.

I believe double turbo doesnt reduce the greninja barrage because damage form 120 to 100 because the dmage comes form an effect of the attack and not the attack itself. like if you had turbo energy and you use the first attack it has 170 damage from the attack, that would have been reduced to 150. i think it matters if its attack or damage from an effect. This and the fact you are discarding the turbo energy for the cost of the effect. meaning turbos not on greninja anymore. If thats so then its not bugged.

@SoroSorrow

Ай бұрын

The first reason is not exact I think since damage is damage, even if it is in the "additional effect". This is not 120 in damage counter, but really 120 damage. So that should be 100 However, because you discard the double turbo before, you don't reduce the damage. That is the real reason. Thanks for pointing it out!

@TheGreatPewpyOne

Ай бұрын

you also discard the energy before damage is dealt so technically the DTE isnt attached when resolving therefore no damage reduction

I feel like Tsareena Ex with Froslass would be good too

I seen some decks run Froslass Ex

I have a deck like this called FrostBake. It either works great or awful. No in-between. If they have no ability mons, it is trash. But if they have a bench full of ability mons it is awesome. I got a 10 prize hand once. Also just as something hilarious, they are making all this hullabaloo about Palafin and it is still broken af. Especially the prebuilt deck. I built my own Palafin LostBox type and have issues every once in a while. Its just Cram, Comfey, All the Palafins and a Bloodmoon. The worst glitch I get is being able to play zero to hero as a basic. But I get this wierd one where Palafin and comfey merger together and play as the 2 cards as once. I have no idea how it is so busted but I think it has a lot to do with the new ability not being programmed in the game right. I want the deck to work right because it is a powerful card and I want to make a Greninja, Palafin with Beach. For such a low energy need It could really be a great deck. Edit: You have to get the spooky alt art Frosties, they look so awesome.

I play this same deck and I have been on winning for two weeks

very smiliar to my list i used no rotom and forest steal stone i used two more dte

Anyone else have a glitch that put 5 Rare cadies in after import??? Still bugs galore lol

Because the attack reads "Discard 2 energy" before mentioning damage, then when you remove the DTE you actually don't have to worry about damage reduction.

Palkia hits hard enough to help take out bigger mons. But the snipe ability of the greninja take out there bench or put damage on stuff for palkia range sooo good.

Greninja is a busted card in a meta where gardevoir isnt the bdif and raging bolt doesnt exist. Maybe it will be solid in a couple sets.

The water Greninja ex is not good IMO.

I love this deck so much, but it really is positioned awfully in the format. Lugia and pidgeot resist the KOs. Decks that get big attackers with no ability's just get ahead of us. Randomly gardevoir just blows us out.
