Another update an its still terrible, possibly even worse. Last few days i played 3 to 5 matches a day and all were the same!! Mulligans an then just a terrible starting hand. Turn after turn sitting an doing nothing. No trainer cards! Halfway into my deck an not one smh. Had 4 matches in a row where i couldnt draw any energy!! Getting dealt 3 of the same card several times. Even getting a reshuffle , im dealt the same exact cards back to me again!

And even my opponent is sitting with a cards in hand an cant do anything. Decks i built, i feel like i cant even see if they are good. Because i get dealt the same cards all the time!

But not if i use the new pre made deck! Seems to always flow so perfect. Smh.

    Based on this patch release notes, the shuffle algorithm wasn't changed at all...

    any chance you'd share the deck list this happens most on might just be a card count balancing issue that's making it not feel good

    It happens with every deck i use. It doesnt matter. It feels like im playing against the game itself anymore an not the other player.

    Is this the match that stops clumping all my cards together. Making a deck an trying not to use the cards that constantly keep getting dealt to me to start with.

    Pokemon TCG Live is one of the biggest EOMM Matchmaking Slop. Only Solution is, STOP playing online games who use EOMM Matchmaking Algorithms (Engagement Optimized Matchmaking) (99% of all online Games nowadays)! It has nothing to do with Skill - These Games play with you!

    Complete dog water smh. Allll the supporters to draw cards, search for pokemon, 3 or 4 of each!! More then 1/3 of my deck. Yet match after match , i go turn after turn and not 1. Some matches i cant even get energy! Dealt 3 of the same pokemon! 4 stadiums locked in prize cards. Broken system. I can see it happening here or there. But ill play 5 matches in a row!! All going the same exact way. Crazy becuz ill go an change up some cards in my deck trying to stop this dumb rotation i get stuck in.
