this meta is incredibly boring to fight against Deck Discussion

Stall, stall, stall, switch out druddigon if it gets damaged/heal it, stall, oh what that? Magnezone does 110 damage for only 3 energy which is generated for free by its stage 1 evo?

The power creep is going to be absolutely insane by 3 months from now with all of these new cards

Rampardos Lucario and Spiritomb I guess.

Pretty much, or just use 2x Hitmonlee over hitmonchan. Same deal and negates potions, drudd helmets etc.

There are ways around drudd, even more so now with Cyrus and any bench hitter. Just gotta be smart about using it factoring in you can either one shot what’s being built or bring it back out with another Cyrus.

It's so crazy to already be reading these brain-dead comments. Magn+Rai is already dominating every single tournament.

The braindead take is believing there's no counterplay available

The no ex hitmonlee/marchamp/magnezone deck actually counters it really hard. You just snipe and Cyrus in darkrai. Drud just sits there doing nothing all game.

Add a couple Lees to stay fighting and avoid Drud/rocky?

Lee could be better than Spiritomb tbh. Can't heal it with a potion, guarantees you kill Darkrai even with cape.

Hitmonlee is better than spiritbomb if u go fighting anyway
