The decks I tend to have the most fun with are decks that sacrifice a bit of consistency for the chance of one hit knockouts.

I was feeling lucky, but excited about my finish. At my second cup, I played my updated Zoroark Salazzle list, and didn’t hit a fighting deck until the finals, where I was trounced by Ryan Allred.
