I see a lot of deck reports and I also see alot of Bills listed in these
reports. A lot of these decks are equipped with the maximum of the 4 allowed
Bills. Even TopDeck magazine suggests several Bills to help out your deck...
but I kinda have to disagree... actually I really disagree with putting any
Bills in my deck. My friends are always gung-ho to chuck 'em all in when
building a deck but if you really look at it, it isn't that cool. Sure you
get to draw 2 extra cards into your hand, but that is only 2 cards, and in
reality it is only one extra card you get to draw because if that Bill
wasn't there you would have drawn a different card that wasn't a Bill.A card
that wasn't a Bill to go bye-bye into a discard pile in return for the card
you would have drawn in your next couple turns. In my opinion Oak can beat
Bill down. I'd rather have 1 Prof. Oak than 4 Bills basically becuase he can
do more than the work of 4 Bills. Sure, you can't go around Oaking like a
retard because you could waste all sorts of vaulable cards, but I know that
I can hold my Oaks till the time is right. I do it when all I have in my
hand is the Oak, sometimes when I have some crap I know I dont need. And I
love it when I have a hand, use all my trainers, evolve who needs can be
evolved, Oak and draw a fresh hand with a new Oak ready to use when I need
it again. So forget about that dang Bill. He'll just waste space in your
deck, by replaceing better cards with himself who just gets chucked and in
reality only gets you the card you would have drawn on your next turn
anyhow. I'm not saying that Bill has no place in the game, but I am saying
that someone with half a brain can find a way not to waste precious deck
space with a multitude of Bill when there are several other trainers and
pokemon that can do his job and most often a lot better. Besides... do you
really want that fruity Bill (who really really likes dressing up as
pokemon)making an appearance in your deck when there are trainers that allow
you draw an extra card of your choice instead the one you would have taken
next turn. Anyways.... I'll catch you on the flipside.... ADIOS
