    There's alot there to read and I apologize, but I exported the game log because this was golden. Literally played a guy that ran a deck solely focused on EX pokemon. Blaziken EX, Pikachu EX, and Miraidon EX…I had only Mimikyu and Sylveon in play after he took out my Budew, if he kept his Torchic, he would have at least been able to do some damage. But he opted to use a rare candy for Blaziken

    From then on, he couldn't touch me

    That's what makes that deck fun!

    When they only use ex and has opportunities to use normal cards but don't realize the danger they're in

    By the time they realize it's too late and game's over

    Good job+
