New lurker first question: Does the game have its own bots?
My apologies as I am new… if there is a lack of appropriately matched players does the game provide bots? On many matches I have newly constructed winning decks, usually two wins in a row while matching a human (random non-immediate times between choices while its their turn). After (usually) winning two I match what seems…
How does Rare Candy work? Please be specific.
I'm sorry if this has been asked before. I checked the first 5 pages and didn't see any posts about this but if I missed it, point me in the right direction. I have had a few matches now & I am grasping the basics, except for one card. Rare Candy. For starters sometimes this card allows me to skip the middle stage of an…
Is there a card called Dragonite ex with 330 hp and jet cruise attack?
Someone I know mentioned this card and I was curious so I tried looking it up but can't find it. It should be from a scarlet & violet set. Anyones help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
What rank would be considered good enough to start playing live regionals?
Hello all, I have been trying to get XP online with the intention so start playing some tournaments live. However, I'm not sure if my deck is yet good enough or if I'm still too noob.

Has anyone ever played a Golisopod Mimikyu deck?
I recently did a deep dive into Paradox rift and saw this card and put together a deck and it has been dominating in live
QoL Suggestion: Let players pick defaults (coin flip, going first/second (per deck), prize order)
Letting players pick defaults for coin flip, going first/second (per deck) and the prize order would speed matches up considerably. Even though it might just be a few seconds per game, I'm certain it will add up over hundreds over matches per user. If the default isn't set, just default to current behavior.
Are TCGL and TCG regulations the same?
Hello, I haven't played either or in a couple years and as I've seen, there was a recent change in the TCGL regulations, does that also apply to the in person game? Thank you!
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…
