Pokemon TCG Live glitch makes Lost Box “OP” thanks to new bug
PokemonA Pokemon TCG Live player has discovered one major glitch to help make the Lost Box OP, changing how one card in particular works.
If you’re running Jirachi in your Pokemon trading card game live app deck, then beware, because you could be missing out on some key wins, with one newly discovered glitch rendering your previously powerful card pretty useless.
Pokemon fan Martin R took to X to illustrate a glitch that causes a turn skip when you quickly place damage counters on the enemy side.
Pokemon TCG Live bug removes Jirachi as tech vs Lost Box
In the example shared by Martin R, current Pokemon TCG mainstay Sableye has attached damage counters evenly on enemy bench Pokemon, thanks to its Lost Mine attack.
Jirachi’s Stellar Veil effect then kicks in, which should prevent the counters from being placed. The effect cancels the damage, but it drags on during the opponent’s turn. In effect, Lost Mine becomes a ‘skip a go’ against the Jirachi side.
It only takes your enemy having three benched Pokemon on the field for them to get ‘stuck’. To make things worse, the more Pokemon the enemy has on the bench, the more time they skip from Jirachi’s canceling effect, due to a ‘desynch’.
In the case of Pokemon TCG Live, a desynchronization essentially means running out of time and missing your turn.
Given that the new Jirachi is one of the main ‘techs’ against Lost Zone decks, this makes Lost Zone even more potent on the TCG live ladder. As Martin R put it, “Lost Box is top tier again.”
