Ruling Muligan

[RiachuPwns]

Is there a limit to how many muligans you can do?

Muligan? That's from magic the gathering right? If I recall right, there isn't any muligan here. You only shuffle your hand into your deck if you don't have any basic pokemon, and your opponent can draw a card.

 

[RiachuPwns]

yes that, sorry I used to play magic and still use some of the same terms

 

[Po-Po-Pocchama]

There should be no limit and yes there are Muligans in the Mon(Poke) TCG. If you have no Basics in your hand you shuffle and redraw

 

[Magic Umbreon]

Remember that the draw is optional after your opponent re-shuffles after not drawing a basic.

There is a limit. When you deck your opponent out.

Ohhh.. Mully Mewtwo decks.. The only decks that worked before the game even started..

So it means what ever happens... there is a match that will be fought? is that it? since mulligan (MTG term) doesn't exist, am I right or am i getting confused by my self here...

 

[Shade Daroach]

If you dont get a basic in your hand, you re-shuffle your hand and your opponent MAY draw an extra card. Once you get your basic the game starts. Your opponent doesn't HAVE to draw a card, so muligan stops when you draw a basic.

 

[Naki Feralkin]

In the old rules, they had to draw 2, it wasn't an option. That was the best part.

Of course, Mully Mew is why they changed the ruling.

 

[sneasel-master]

So mulligan really doesn't exist... and you and your opponent can wait until he/she gets a pokemon.

Example:
he doesn't get a basic pokemon 10 times. But he gets a basic at the 11th attempt the you start the game since there is no mulligan.

(Sorry for the exaggerated example.)

I think consistant mulliganing can be petitioned for a judge, though, since there is kind of a time limit. I'd draw the cards just because of less time and the advantage I'd have on my opponent.
