Deck Primer

GLC Dark "Disrupt" Deck centered around Mabosstiff.

Game plan/-play:
1) Start/Early Game:
-> Try to put Toxtricity and Mabosstiff on the Bench and either get Team Rocket's Murkrow (if better cards are needed in hand) or Galarian Weezing (to slow down the opponent) into the Active Spot.

2) Mid-Game:
-> Depending on the situation, put Zoroark (if opponent has >=4 Benched Pokémon), Weavile (if opponent has >=3 Pokémon with Abilities in play) or best Tyranitar

2) Mid-Game:
-> Depending on the situation, put Zoroark (if opponent has >=4 Benched Pokémon), Weavile (if opponent has >=3 Pokémon with Abilities in play) or best Tyranitar (to serve as disruption and strong attacker) into the Active Spot.
-> Tyranitar can be put into play using Ciphermaniac's Codebreaking first to put Grimsley's Move on top and Tyranitar second from top onto the deck. Then simply cast Grimsley's Move next turn and put Tyranitar on the Bench.
-> In this phase try to use Mabosstiff's Ability to "lure" the opponent into moving either an Attacker that the opponent is trying to set up or an important Support Pokémon into the Active Spot and k.o. it.

3) Late Game/Being behind:
-> In late game Galarian Moltres serves as "Revenge" Attacker if the opponent has at least >=3 prizes taken.
-> Now Mabosstiff can also be used as Attacker or again Zoroark or Weavile, depending on the situation, since these two are easily set up even after they are defeated.

Disclaimer:
- Comments, ideas, etc. are welcome!
- All my decks are mostly built around a theme and built for fun games in the local GLC friends group and LGS.
- Since I'm not a competitive player, this deck it's not meant/recommended for GLC tournament play.
- All my decks have been built/are organized on limitlesstcg.com beforehand and have been tested in https://ptcgsim.online/ and games against friends. They have gone through a lot of changes and I compared them with decks from other players (GLC tournament decks, pokemoncard.io, cardboardwarriors.net, etc.) before I upload them. So I think they are okay as they are.
- However, I'm still open to recommendations for cards that fit into the deck's “theme” and can improve it.
- My decks are subject to change as I update them regularly when new GLC legal sets/cards release.
