As far as I know, when you can't draw a card when you need to, you've lost the game. Contradictorily, I was told differently last weekend during Battle Roads. They claim that you only lose a game when you can't draw a card at the start of the turn. Anyway, I just want clarification.
My opponent had only 1 card in his deck. He used his Empoleon's Diving Draw and discards a Terrakion. He then draws one card. This is where I thought I had the game as Empoleon's ability states that if you discard one card you then need to draw 2 cards. There weren't any Professors at the tournament so I just went with what the majority said. He only draws one card and he play's N, shuffling his large hand back into his deck.
Was he right that you only lose if you can't draw a card at the start of the turn? Or was I right and I should have won the game?
