Players closing the game to not lose
Quick question, is it a thing for players to intentionally dc so that they don't lose? I started playing ptcgo again recently, and it seems that everytime im about to win, the game just stops moving forward. It will pause right after my knock out or move, and just sit there. I can click on things like normal but it just…

Why would you ever use Withdraw over Bubble on Squirtle (Base Set)?
Base Set Squirtle has two attacks: Bubble, with one Water Energy. Flip a coin. If heads, the defending Pokémon is now Paralysed. Deals 10 damage. Withdraw, with one Water and one Colourless Energy.

When will Expanded be fully available on TCG Live?
When can we expect to see the Black & White on be added and playable in PTCG Live? I'm not going to lie, I was a bit disappointed to see that it wasn't available at launch. I've been patiently waiting for expanded to make a come back. There are so many benefits to having expanded around it's not even funny. I think…

PCTGL Devs: Please participate in a Q and A
It would be really nice to engage with the player base. The opaque feedback system feels like everything goes into a black hole. I really wish the TCG designers would do so, but I assume they're all in Japan and only care about Japanese players. Will any staff be present at the World Championships? Or Baltimore (since I'll…
