How to fix bad draws i.e. always mulligan

Hi is there a way to adjust my account’s draw in ptcg? Out of all of my games only a handful is not a mulligan for context I’m using a deck copied from a pro player so I don’t think it’s because of unoptimized deck and also my deck irl

    No, you can't adjust your account draw.

    Mulligans happen many times for obvious reasons, decks have 60 cards and in most of the decks less than 15% of the cards are basic Pokemon… so the odds of your starting 7 cards having a basic Pokemon are not that high.

    And irl there are shuffling tricks (that should be cheating), but many players get away with it unpunished… in game you can't cheat like that so even more mulligans.

    ohh maybe I’m not clear I was asking if there was way to like reset the shuffle or draw? It’s weird because every game is a mulligan lol hahaha

    I’m not trying to cheat or anything just want to fix it because it may be bugged one thing I noticed is I seem to draw more energy for context I always draw 2 energies when I only play 5 (zard) also someone said I should go to the forums to fix this idk if that’s just a prank😭

    How often you mulligan is a simple formula of how many basic pokemon you have.

    6 basics = 54.144% chance to not mulligan

    7 = 60.088%

    9 = 70.023%

    12 = 80.935%

    16 = 90.078%

    The past 8 world championship theme decks have 10-14 basics each(74.137% - 86.141%)

    Ok, but still there is no reset the shuffle/draw option or anything like that available in the game.
