MagmaPhlosion

[MagmaGrowth876]

This deck WAS my MagLeaf deck, but due to the hugely underwelming amount of help, and the fact that I couldn't seem to get anywhere with it, I've created a new deck, which, through play testing, I've found completely sucks. That being said, I'd like to get it critiqued here and hopefully get some much needed help. I honestly think i might be trying too hard lately to get my decks to be better, as I'm fresh out of new ideas.

Strategy: Hopefully to get a Magmar/Cyndaquil out on T1 somehow. Then try to set up Magmortar/Typhlosion from there using Jirachi/Sableye. Discard 2 energies using either EA or FD, use Afterburner to get them back onto Magmortar, attach energy from hand to heal all damage off. Attach 3 energies a turn this way. My strategy needs some help too, as the first couple times i've playtested this, i couldn't do anthing besides attach energy for about 3 turns. I've since added Sableye. No idea where to go from here.

I think you should try getting 1 or 2 Ninetales HS to give you a draw engine. You can't get anywhere if you don't have a draw engine.

I tried that. I got rid of them for 2-2 Claydol. I don't need a ton of fire energy in the d-pile every turn, and if I use Ninetales HGSS as my only draw engine i don't have a way of getting everything back. With Claydol, i just cycle through cards, and discard through retreating/Engineer's Adjustments/Felicity's Drawing. Then I can just Afterburner them back.
