PTCGP Fighting Pokemon Deck Strategy

Strategy Focuses on Early Game Damage

A common theme for Fighting Type Cards is that they can deal heavy damage while using less energy, making them good early game damage dealers. This makes them good at putting pressure at the start and disrupting opponent's builds.

The best strategy is to set up quick to build cards like Hitmonlee and Dugtrio to maximize on early game damage while building your heavy hitters at the bench.
