Fast Daze and Furious Knights



These Theme Decks Reviews will be kept relatively short. The two Theme Decks I’ll be reviewing are the Noble Victories ones, Fast Daze and Furious Knights. I originally was not going to buy them until I knew more information, but after the usual PokeBeach reception of anything being “mediocre” I’ve decided to preorder just to piss off these moronic kids. Seriously, you whiny immature ingrates, fuck off.

And it turned out for the better. Many of the included cards were worth buying. Let’s start with Fast Daze:

Pokemon
2x Accelgor
4x Shelmet
1x Leavanny
2x Swadloon
3x Sewaddle
1x Lilligant
2x Petilil
2x Crustle
2x Dwebble
3x Foongus
1x Volcarona
2x Larvesta
2x Simisear
2x Pansear

Trainers
2x Energy Search
2x Potion
2x Cheren
2x Great Ball
1x N
2x Pokemon Communication
2x Super Rod

Energy
12x Grass Energy
6x Fire Energy

Not bad. I always wanted that Volcarona. Although besides that and Accelgor, not many pokemon are that good. But this is made up by the trainers. The inclusion of N is always welcome, as well as Super Rod, a very useful card. Cheren is always helpful. Leavanny is alright, as it alleviates weaknesses. Lilligant has an attack to that basically a Max Potion minus the mass discard. Crustle is OK w/ Fliptini from the same set. Accelgor is fantastic with its free retreat and 1 for 60 attack. Volcarona’s 1 for 30 attack helps energy acceleration. Simisear, though is pretty bad. And I don’t know why Foongus is there.

Overall, I would recommend to get this, if you like the Pokemon. Otherwise, it may not be a good decision unless you want those cards in your Pokemon TCG Online without trades or luck.

Now for the better one, Furoius Knights:

Pokemon
2x Escavalier (1 holo, 1 non-holo)
4x Karrablast
3x Durant
1x Eelektross
2x Eelektrik
3x Tynamo
1x Zebstrika
2x Blitzle
2x Emolga
2x Stunfisk
1x Druddigon
2x Audino
2x Fraxure
2x Axew

Trainers
2x Energy Search
2x Switch
2x Bianca
2x Great Ball
1x N
2x Pokemon Communication
2x Super Rod

Energy
12x Lightning Energy
6x Metal Energy (basic)

This one is the reverse of Fast Daze. While Fast Daze has a good main card, while the others are not as good; the main card of Furious Knights is not as good, but they are better Pokemon in the deck. Escavalier is not too good with its expensive costs and riskty attacks. But Durant and Druddigion are great additions with their good milling and walling, respectively. Durant is basically a MUCH more functional version of Triumphail Magmortar and Druddigon works AMAZING with Rocky Helmet, dealing 4 damage counters every time it takes an attack. And Eelektrik is a great energy resource.The rest of the Pokemon are not even worth mentioning.

Just like in the other theme deck, the trainers are good. N is also present, as well as Super Rod. Bianca is here instead of Cheren.

In conclusion, the cards in theme deck are worth the price. Fast Daze is alright, but Furious Knight is much better with its great Pokemon. I suggest you buy the latter and po
