Kyurem deck drafting

Kyurem isn't as successful this meta as it was last year. There are no easy targets since most Pokemon have +180 HP and Tauros Gx is abundant. Try aqua patch and max elixir? But at that point why not use lapras gx?

130+20+30= 180 HP for 3 energy
This is one kyurem with a choice band and Empoleon buff

160+10=170 HP for three energy
This is one lapras gx with fighting fury belt buff

The only advantage that kyurem has is that it's a non gx/ex and only takes one prize if defeated but I find it harder to support Kyurem as it's easily ko now and can't retaliate easily. The first attack and it's splash damage to isn't enough either.
