I am trying to build a good Persian EX decks,but I'm struggling to find cards that work really well with it. Especially when trying to manipulate what cards are in their deck for me to take advantage of.

    There really aren't a lot of good cards in today's Standard. We're lacking a lot of good disruption Supporters in my opinion.

    However, there are a few tricks. Any way to lock somebody's hand and then shuffle in a bunch of cards will help. (Think Team Rocket's Arbok plus an Iono.) The only tech specifically for the way Persian ex works I can think of is Gothitelle (Paldea Evolved 92), which is… mediocre, but could be worse. I think Persian ex is probably going to be a meme deck at most until we get significantly better deck manipulation.
