* '''{{TCG ID|Noble Victories|Terrakion|73}}''' - After the release of the {{TCG|Dark Explorers}} expansion in May 2012, CMT needed a way to deal with {{TCG ID|Dark Explorers|Darkrai-EX|63}}. Darkrai-EX resisted {{TCG ID|Next Destinies|Mewtwo-EX|54}} and was capable of knocking out any Pokémon in the deck in two attacks. Because its ''Night Spear'' attack also hit a benched Pokémon for 30 damage (in addition to the 90 it dealt to the Defending Pokémon), Darkrai-EX could knock out a benched [[Celebi (Triumphant 92)|Celebi Prime]] in two attacks. Although the addition of Terrakion, along with {{TCG|Fighting Energy}} to power its attacks, somewhat decreased CMT's consistency, it greatly improved the deck's matchup against {{TCG|Darkrai/Terrakion}}, {{TCG|DMT}}, and other Darkrai-EX-based archetypes. | * '''{{TCG ID|Noble Victories|Terrakion|73}}''' - After the release of the {{TCG|Dark Explorers}} expansion in May 2012, CMT needed a way to deal with {{TCG ID|Dark Explorers|Darkrai-EX|63}}.

Builds utilizing Tornadus-EX tended to run a higher count of {{TCG|Skyarrow Bridge}} than those that did not. Although Tornadus-EX was a two-prize liability against Zeel and other {{TCG|Lightning}}-type decks, it was more powerful than the Emerging Powers Tornadus and gave CMT a greater ability to donk. | ||
