S.W.E.E.P.: Silly Winning Extra Extravagant Plays

Anyways, I'm a huge Tsareena ex fan, as it can win games in one fell swoop, or be a funny control deck that slowly dwindles your opponent's options. This deck is a board wipe version, taking advantage of some of the new cards coming out in Surging Sparks! As for the placeholders, Calamitous Snowy Mountain will become the atrium that gives all basics +30 HP, and Calamitous Wasteland will become the one that gives all stage 2's -30

S.W.E.E.P.: Silly Winning Extra Extravagant Plays

Anyways, I'm a huge Tsareena ex fan, as it can win games in one fell swoop, or be a funny control deck that slowly dwindles your opponent's options. This deck is a board wipe version, taking advantage of some of the new cards coming out in Surging Sparks! As for the placeholders, Calamitous Snowy Mountain will become the atrium that gives all basics +30 HP, and Calamitous Wasteland will become the one that gives all stage 2's -30 HP.

This deck's strategy is the usual, where you spam Tsareena ex's Icicle Sole attack to set your opponent's HP to 30, and then KO them all at once; Panic Mask prevents them from retaliating as effectively. The way you KO them depends on the deck you're playing against, and you'll have a more difficult time depending on the matchup.

Stage 2 decks have you just plunk down the -30 HP stadium once they're all at 30 remaining, which makes them all get KO'd. What's nice is that this takes place in the middle of your turn, so you have the opportunity to attack any stragglers and hopefully knock them out as well.

Basic decks are funnier, but still doable. You want to play the +30 HP stadium before you attack any of their big basics, and set up the damage while it's in play. When you're ready to strike, remove the stadium, the basics will no longer have +30 HP, and then die. Your opponent will also be forced to play along to some capacity, because if they preemptively remove it, they have to suffer from the HP loss anyways. 

Stage 1 decks are the trickiest, but you have TM: Devo to devolve all of your opponents Pokémon into weaker forms that should be KO'd as well.

Enjoy!

Battle Compressor Absolutely! They're a personal favourite of mine because of the dopamine rush you get when it works after the 38th attempt.

CountyGibbon798  once you get the opponent’s Pokemon to 30hp how do you ko them without Froslass or Braviary?

There are things I see in the deck that make this too Expanded-like. I don't blame you, because about 90% of your decks are Expanded.

 

-Unlike Expanded, (where most decks run 3 or 4 of the main card) you don't actually want to have many copies of the main attacker nor it's devolutions. If you look at Standard Palkia lists, they're playing a 3-2 line, where in Expanded, you'd usually play 4-4 or 4-3. So I suggest keeping your Tsareena line 3-1-3 over 4-2-3. This makes more room for a better draw engine, like a Revavroom one where you discard an Energy to draw till six.

-Only 5 Energies here, (Unless you DO want to play the Revavroom draw engine) because you're attacking for 1 energy, and either way, even Charizard, who attacks for 2 energy, plays just 5. And if you play 5, I suggest removing at least 1 earthen. You'll rarely ever be searching out 2 energies with Earthen here and you do have Colress.

-This needs more tech cards, like Fezandipiti ex. (Which literally every Standard deck plays except Thorns) Fez is good because well... you get the picture.

-I think you should completely "tera"part that ACE SPEC. I'd suggest Unfair Stamp. (If there's no specific prefered ACE SPEC, you go with Unfair Stamp.) Unfair stamp can get you out of a pinch when the prize trade is in your opponent's favor.

-Lastly, you can either: Play 2 more Buddy-Buddies or: Play 3 Nest Balls.

 

Overall though, this is pretty good and cheeky.
