Severely Unbalanced

Options

I just started last week and am already a level 10. Although I must say it’s almost as if the game designers put little to not thought into game balance, strategy or timing. Here’s why opponents or anyone can stack their deck with top tier cards Pokémon with over 200-250 health and extremely low energy costs for big damage.

If someone pulls these cards out of their deck first it’s pretty much game over, people playing like four or five cards a turn! for Pokémon draws evolutions and item pulls, over and over again someone turn can take up to two minutes!!!!! to finish a turn… the game is confusing I’m not sure why but another players was attacking me with their Pokémon and it had no energy attached to it….., how is this possible?… the designers should have kept it simple and balanced and make each new set of Pokémon series on its own.

I’ve been playing games all my life and a fan of the original 151 was even thinking of purchasing trading cards but after playing this online and seeing how it’s played it’s sad, it gotten to complicated and is just way overrated and super unbalanced. Stop trying to recreate the wheel!!!!
