Phantasmal Flames release?????

So i didnt realised that the new Phantasmal Flames set was released and we were allowed to play the new Mega Gengar & Diancie Ex on PTCGL. I thought the set had to have some form of release and then after some time the set would be available online. What happened, decided to go off earlier than usual?? I hope you guys understand that doing this doesnt help anyone who is in the process of doing their own playtesting online and such. I think doing this is a horrible decision move and the cards need to be removed from online play til the set has been realeased.
