Clefairy (BS 5). Magmar (BS 36). Clefairy's Metronome attack states that you do not need to copy the need to discard energy cards when it is used. However, when trying to use Metronome to copy Magmar's Flamethrower attack using non-fire energy cards, the attack fails with the game claiming there is not enough energy to use the attack.

Not a bug, that card has an errata. More info: Copy Attacks vs Discard Energy Interactions

Since many of these WotC era erratas were not publicized until recently, I think it is important that there is some kind of notification to players.

If @linkinboss is able to create corrected versions, we could tag each card with an errata marker at the bottom right of the art to match the intended text. This will help prevent a lot of confusion and frustration from players.

I agree, two changes to be done;

  1. New card scan & text should be created and used for cards with errata.

  2. Game should make errata’d cards remarkable, in card database, deck editor, in-game card view, attack text, and so on. I have to complete an expensive internal refactoring to make this happen, it’s on my list but not high priority.
