Hey, everyone, its me "Coolbone", back once again
to... um.... speak. I recently read this article and I
disagree with some of it, and want to bring some
better aspects of beating the "dreaded" deck. This
person (not saying the name) says that stall can beat
the Trapper deck, or wahetever you call it. Here is
what this person said:
"Due to the lack of basics, your opponent only
has an electabuzz as his active. You bench 2 chanseys,
a kangaskan and an abra. They get TR trap adn reduce
your hand to zero. You draw a energy and start
fetching."
Ok, but here's something I want to know, when does
stall use alot of card drawing? And... where do the
Chansey and Abra come in? :) Anyways, you're relying
on luck right there, and what makes you think they
won't play another TRT combo? Maybe it'd be best if
you went first and used searches to find a Lass to get
rid of the Trainers? Now here's some more of what the
person said:
"Eventually, by turn 6 or 7 , you'll have and alakazam
and they will have 3 more prizes to go. Due to all the
card drawing, you should win pretty easily without
taking forever. Stall is BACK!!!"
Ok, now were saying they didn't use the TRT thing on
you again, but tell me... how do you win without
taking forever? Isn't that the point of stall? To take
forever? I admit though, that if you draw the right
cards and they don't you win, so in summarry it
usually takes luck to either beat the deck, or for the
deck to beat you. But here is one last thing the
person said that I feel I should post:
"Due to the lack of basics, your opponent only
has an electabuzz as his active."
So.... how about... using something like Pidgeot to
get rid of the only basic? Here's something I'd like
to see though, 2 Trapper decks battling each other.
Don't get me wrong though, I'm not trying to dis
anyone, but I'm bored and I just felt like I'd bring
this up since this is probobly all you'd be seeing.
Here is something of the deck I would use to counter
it, it may not be the exact thing, but its a start,
right?
5 Fighting Energy
7 Fire Energies
4 DCE
4 Hitmonchan
4 Fossil Magmar
4 Kangaskhan
4 Chansey
4 CPU Search
4 Lass
4 RSA
4 Item Finder
4 Bill
4 Oak
4 Misty's Wrath
Ok, so its not the best thing in the world, but like I
said its a start, maybe some of you could try it out
for me, mainly because I don't have the cards and no
one here really has gym yet. What you really want
against a deck is plenty of card drawing, and Misty's
wrath can help you find those card drawing, but there
really should be some Trash exchange in the deck, it
works well with Item Finder. OK, so since most trapper
Pokemon include Scyther and Electabuzz, these Pokemon
help beat them, plus Chansey can take them down in one
hit. Kangaskhan fetches. I'm sorry I took so long for
writing this article and first wrote about
disagreeing, but I just felt I had to bring this up.
k?
