FlipTini Control – SF – Deck

Hello friends, I'm Perupopo and today I'm going to made my third entry for The Dark Deck, today I want to talk about a deck that I prepare for a friend, this deck is very cheap (almost 15 dollars for everything) but it is very competitive and very good. It controls almost every deck in the format because of the Special Conditions that it uses (Paralyze, Confusion and Poison). This deck uses as Attacker the Lilligant from Emerging Powers, this Lilligant with one energy hits 20 and you flip a coin, if it is head, your opponent is paralyzed and poisoned, but if it is tail, your opponent is confused. 

"Bahh! Another Luck Deck, only for lucky people", yes it is a luck deck, but… you use my friend, Victini, this little friend from Noble Victories let you flip again a coin if you don't like the first flip, so it is very difficult to get two tails.

But even if you get both tails your opponent is still confused and has to throw the coin to attack.

With this deck is almost impossible to let your opponent do something, because you hit first with your Lilligant, then when the Opponent Pokemon is with 100HP or less, appears our Virizon (Emerging Powers) to hit 100 and receive your opponents next hit. If your Virizon dies your Lilligant goes out and fight, but if your Virizon survive you change it with your Lilligant, with no retreat cost because of the Skyarrow Bridge. 

Then you make the same combo again and again until you win.
In this deck you play Carnivine (from Dark Explorers) in the case you are playing against a Stage-2 Deck, like Reshiboar, Gothitelle, Empoleon, Krookodino, etc. This basic Pokémon make your opponent switch his Pokémon with another Pokémon and his second attack make your opponents Pokémon go to his hand with everything attached to it.

The Deck List:

Pokémon (18)

4 Petilil (Emerging Power)
4 Lilligant (Emerging Power)

This was the deck, but if you want to spend a little more you can play also 2 Pokemon Catcher, changing them in the 2x Professor Juniper.

 
Game Tests:  
     Against ReshiBoar (my friend played the deck, but I will talk in first person)  

     First turn, I played my Petilil and had my Victini in the bench, so I paralyzed his Reshiram. T2 I evolved   and played my Virizion, I Paralyzed him again, T3 same combo, Virizion with two energy in bench, T4 Skyarrow bridge played, he started to prepare another Reshiram in the bench. My Virizion went out and killed his Reshiram, he put his Reshiram and hit me 40 (I hate weakness). T6 I played Switch, and started hitting the Reshiram with Lilligant.

Easy game, he only killed two Virizions. GG

1 – 0

Second game, was almost the same, only difference that he played 2 Pokemon Catchers, but I won again.

He killed two Virizions.

2 – 0  

Against Zekrom-Reuniclus

T1, I knew this would be a very large game, because he would move the damage counters from the Zekrom every turn so I won't have the opportunity to give a chance to OHKO to my Virizion. I started paralyzing him with my Petilil, T2 he had his Reuniclus set with a Zekrom with 2 energys. The first turns were very boring; in T8 I had my Virizion set with 3 energies, my 2 Lilligant in bench, 1 Carnivine and 1 Victini. I got only 2 prize cards, he got one. I started playing the control, and my FlipTini started making his job. I won in like T16. Easy game, but very boring.

3 – 0 

He started, first turn he started with DCE and Zekrom, hit 20, my turn Petilil + FlipTini, easy paralyzing in T1, Lilligant in T2, Virizion + Skyarrow Bridge in T3, just wait until win, T14 Game Over.

4 – 0

 

Very good deck, very cheap also, just 15$ for all the deck, prices from trollandtoad.com, I hope you like it and tell me how you would play this deck with other cards in the commentaries.

Good bye friends.
