Mega Camerupt ex can deliver a ludicrous 240 damage for one Energy if the opponent is Burned, while my favorite, Mega Mawile, can take a Huge Bite of 260 damage if an opponent is unharmed (and only 30 if it isnt!), but also Gobble Down for 80 per prize card youve taken
These kinds of effects can only be used once per turn per card, while that card is face-up in its current location
Of course, each individual creature type has its own set of deliberate payoffs, usually in the form of lords or thematic tie-ins
A common professional mistake is to include too many different types of Pokmon without enough Energy or Trainer support for any of them, leading to an inconsistent and unreliable strategy
On top being one of our favourite card games, we enjoy Star Realms so much that it's also made its way onto our list of the best two-player games out there right now
