Alternate art
If one of the creatures is an illegal target and the other one isn't as The Earth Crystal's last ability tries to resolve, the original distribution of counters applies and the counter that would have been put on the illegal target is lost
If my experience losing out on the PS5 several times over ~2 years via Amazons invitation system is any indication, my advice would be requesting an invitation for all Lorcana products that you might want to purchase, as it will presumably increase your chances of success
Magica De Spell, The Midas Touch Ruby-amethyst wasnt the only meta dominating deck on the market in Lorcana set two, with Tamatoa item decks also proving a worthy contender and winning plenty of tournaments
They can really take off, however, with some help from special creatures like Bartz And Boko, Sazh Katzroy, and Traveling Chocobo (not the super-expensive serialized version)
The vehicle synergies also give the deck some diversity
