From what I’ve seen, there’s a divide between collectors on this topic. I lean towards the side that the abundance of SIR’s and easy pull rates is bad. I love to open packs in hopes to pull a card I wouldn’t dare buy outright. To me, if the top chase card is $40 or below, it completely takes out the point of opening a pack. Like why risk it? Just buy the card. And just buying the card isn’t FUN to me. On the other hand I understand how some collectors are enjoying the cheap cards, but (no offenses to them) at that point it doesn’t feel like a real tangible collection that has any value to it. That’s just me!
I agree to a lot of your points! The cheapness of SIRs does take away from the excitement of pulling it. This is coming from someone that has pulled the Spidops EX SIR twice 😭 luckily just from single packs and not a booster box.
yea I agree but I feel that way anyway why spend thousands on trying to pull a 200$ card or whatever makes more sense to just keep stuff sealed and buy singles
Bought a booster box of twilight mascerade and got absolutely trolled, pulled the greninja ex ultra rare and the full art version with ZERO SIR’s in the whole box 😭 got 3 SI’s and two full arts 😫
Personally dont think this is a problem, cheaper and less rare cards means i can own most of them without spending an insane amount of money on cardboard. If someone is taking a monetary drop in their "assets" its on them for investing on a kids game
Agree somewhat. I try to master a lot of sets, so it's nice to not have to send $1k+ to do so, but if you're ripping open packs, it's a bummer to know that even if you open a booster box and get the #1 chase card of the set, you still won't get your money back in a lot of SV sets right now.
What is your favorite SIR so far?!
Iron Crown! The Color Palette is to die for

wow nice work, I love these statistic Videos
could you make the same for the AltArts from the Sword&Shield era?
Great video! I love the top 2 Charizard cards and the bubble Mew. Also love the Perrin and Raging Bolt cards.
Ya, I really like the raging bolt! Temporal forces is one of my favorite sets of the era so far.
Love the bubble Mew 💓

Dang, this is why I’m afraid to open this set 😂😂
I think now more than ever is the best time to master each set since the rarest cards (SIR) have such frequent pull rates
Ya, personally, I am about done with temporal forces and paldea evolved, and working on base and obsidian next.
I liked the video. Never seen anyone break down the certain card type and prices. Keep it up 👍🏻
Thank you!! Appreciate the kind words!
2 favorites are the Paldean Fates Charizard and Chi-Yu.
The colors on the Chi-Yu 😍

Love that Greninja 🤤
I think card #21 is from TLM and not OBF.
Yup! Error on my end. That's what I get for copying the slide 10 times and then making changes afterwards 😝
Where was TEF Gasthly?
That's just an illustration rare, not a special illustration rare. But still a very nice card :)
