Interestingly, this is not the only limit players are beholden to in Pokemon TCG Pocket , as they are also held back on the number of cards they can have in the deck
Why OP-17 Is a Must-Open Set
Fusionist X EARTH Level 3 [ Beast / Fusion ] ATK 900 DEF 700 "Petit Angel" + "Mystical Sheep #2" Number 14: Greedy Sarameya X DARK Rank 5 [ Beast / XyzEffect ] ATK 2500 DEF 1500 2 Level 5 monsters Your opponent takes any effect damage you would have taken from their card effects, instead
Its also only your permanents, not all permanents unlike Homeward Path, so if you run theft effects in your own deck like Gilded Drake, Thieving Skydiver or Agent of Treachery , those effects will not end with Brand
Why am I assuming you see ~2 more cards in those 9 turns
But lets not lose sight of the real problem here
