Older packs have a higher ceiling but are less likely to break even or plus. But for me it doesn’t matter because the nostalgia and the rush of excitement for an old school pull are things that modern yugioh just can’t replicate
Old packs have a higher ceiling yes BUT for graded cards. So you gamble opening the pack and then gamble again paying the fee to grade and hope to hit high numbers. So it's a gamble on a gamble...
@powersurge2536 Some of us buy old packs for collecting, modern yugioh ever since pendulums has sucked. It's completely dumbed down the game. Even xyz.... let's match two amounts of stars together to make one card. If I wanted to play concentration, I'd play concentration.
Honestly, all I know is the old school and I am standing by it . I’m sure the new packs have more value but the OG’s have those few memorable monsters that will always be on top.
You should try what Leonhart has done recently and add the " value opened" when you show the price of the cards you pull. So a counting amount that goes up for each pack you open from each side.
@@professorbanana00I see that he posts the winners on twitter, but I can’t find any other information or people who’ve confirmed receiving a giveaway, However, I would think if they were fake that I would see people discussing why they haven’t received their giveaway and things like that etc but there’s nothing, only some stuff about how his store is overpriced. So my inclination and giving the benefit of the doubt is that they actually are real giveaways
I don’t because of scaling, not many lgs where I live so they would definitely get away with it and people here would have no choice but to accept it like the ‘good ol days’. It’s wayy better now, they also make it difficult to case map boxes, since the QCR’s are 2 per case now and in random order it makes it not worth the risk for stores to open the boxes and get the QCR’s and sell the duds like they used to do So I much prefer that they have all super rare packs now (and 2 QCR cases) and have the ultra rares and secret rares (same ratio as old foils) to compensate that ‘YAY!!!’ Factor,
So to me this is really the biggest issue yugioh truly has faced for a while, for collectors at least, as beyond buying special sets that I saw or seemed to have ‘potential’ cool new rarities for nostalgic cards, the likelihood of pulling those rarities for most people, almost nonexistent, and I wasn’t willing to open unlim packs during the boom whereas i was buying the 2017 reprints that still did have ok value, and the same reprints, for $7 from Walmart all day long in ‘20-‘21 until they too, were bought up en masse, to drive the prices up for THOSE reprints, etc. so, yugioh, really just struggles with being truly insanely ridiculous where reprints, are more expensive at times then original unlims, new 1st ed reprints, are sometimes and often the most expensive, and the high rarity stuff, well, get ready to start to shave off organs if you want to try to have fun pulling them, ain’t going to happen 😅😂 then, if you turn to the secondary for those high rarities, also had to prepare myself, to be slaughtered😂 again, these days this games market, is starting to make like 2% more logical sense though it’s still insane, but that’s yugioh in general, at the very least there seems to be some attempt to make it make coherent sense for people to follow, as is the case for the 2 main TCGs (Pokémon / Mtg) where at least for the collectors and players there, while yes there’s some cards and sets/languages things are insane and it does not follow coherent logic, their markets at least can make some sense to a squirrels mind 😂like it’s all worthless cardboard anyways, that people spend ridiculous amounts of imaginary money on, what’s really bothered me with this game is just how literally ass backwards the market was, especially for being a ‘top 3’ game 😂
It all depends. The market will favor two things in my eyes. Competitive play and print quantity. Nostalgia def plays apart. I think both new and old can produce decent pulls. Just depends what you are looking for.
Potential of older packs is better. And it is heart touching when nostalgia kicks in to you and new packs definitely have more value on average I think but old packs always have THE CARDS that can be worth more than any nowadays packs
New packs got more staples, and archtypes seeing use, so value will be higher. However, old packs do have those single cards that can be worth alot, new packs are just more consistent in that smaller value.
The newer cards that have some value are in higher rarity and it’s really hard to pull them, but the older cards are having value in every card even the common cards.
The newer packs are more likely because they're more consistent and contain cards that are desired in modern decks, so I imagine they'll be worth more.
I think the new packs will have better value just because rarity collection has "guaranteed" value almost, and there's a high chance that you'll pull a meta that's worth something in the new packs.
I think it all depends on the cards you pull, I'm going for the new packs. Better chance of higher rarities in those, although if you hit the money cards in the old sets that could really turn the tables!
My man ruxin special the pharaonic guardian pack and called it pharaohs servant and call the trap dustshoot a dust tornado right after 😂😂😂 but I love the mixture of old vs new
Normally I would say that old s hook packs have the potential of having more value. However, since starting to play again around 2 years ago I’ve been collecting older cards and am always looking at purchasing older cards and so many cards just keep dropping in value and it’s depressing. It’s made me sadly decide that I’m not going to collect Yugioh anymore but collect Pokémon instead. Konami has done a great job destroying value of older cards with all the reprints they do. I’m still going to play Yugioh but not waste my money on high end or older Yugioh cards just for them to keep dropping in value. But, I do still love watching you open cards haha, especially older cards and am always rooting when you pull a good card.
I think the new packs will have more valuable cards. Most singles from older packs haven't significantly jumped in price over the years alongside the price of the packs themselves.
I’m pulling for the old school packs to have more value! Even though age of overload has some banger cards lol 😂I know your super busy but I was going to let you know I email you about some PSA cards that I potentially wanna buy if you still have them available. Just let me know whenever you get the chance. Thanks 🙏
Is easy to know that new packs have more value openings and pulls, only because de ratios and more... I would like to go with ole packs... But You know hahaha, specially opening rarity collection. Good vibes and pulls.
I think that especially for this choice of booster the recent ones offers more good cards since they are 5 of 6 month old. It's only a meta thing Btw the ancient golem is sick tho wp
I think overall, the old packs have more value, depending on the individual set. Some LOB and MR commons are a couple of dollars on their own. Unless you pull a big chase card from some of the new packs, you won't be able to compete. Again, this comes down to the individual sets at the end of the day
Overall I would say the newer packs have more value. But the potential of some individual cards in older packs I don't think will ever be matched. They will keep going up with time.
If the old school packs are first editions, then you’ll have some luck of trying to pull a $100+ card, but I’d take anything for anyone who likes to create decks.
Did i miss it somewhere? Ruxin said hed put the PSA estimate on the old school card he pulled *im not naming it since spoiler* however i didnt see a PSA estimate on it for 9/10?
The new packs will have more value due to the current meta, but the oldies have collectors value and some might be included in the future meta. We shall see. 💪
from my personal experience new packs have yielded more value imo. older packs always had sum difficulty but w the reprinted packs ive pulled good stuff but still.
Honestly it is cooler seeing the old packs but newer packs have more meta cards that see more play than an expensive card that's only used for display. Though I am being subjective, I would love to hear an opposing take.
Nice pull rux glad ur happy with that golem, not finished yet but bro is pushing for some hopium for those bonfires, tryna see them hit moon to $200+ 😂
With the newer packs having a larger share of meta cards in high rarities i imagine theres more value in the new packs. Unless you can get a grade 10 from a great old school pull
Ruxin I was thinking what if you did a search for the Ultimate Rare Odd Eyes Rebellion Dragon from Clash Of Rebellion and try and pull the Odd Eyes Rebellion Dragon in Secret and Ultimate.
I think that the old packs will have some insane pulls, so good luck pulling those bangers! Edit post script Both old and new did do quite well, and as you said it, the new packs won, but the old packs aren’t to be underestimated, since they preformed pretty decent! Have a wonderful week everyone!
i think new due to being more playable the only way i see old school being more expensive is it being some really nostalgic cards that people pay big time
Was rooting for the OG packs but new packs with their rarities can definitely bump up the value. Why is it that every time I open a newer pack I still get crappy pulls lol
I mean...it's all random and luck really, so either one of them can win. Also depends on what old school and new booster packs you're opening as well to even the playing field in terms of value when doing these 1v1 battles of valuable pulls.
Well I'll go for new packs this time, since AGOV still has some crazy value inside, same as PHNI. Let's see how it goes! EDIT: well this ended up being a pretty fair fight! I honestly was expecting a more different result. Pretty fun!

New cards may win in $ but older cards/packs will always remain in our heads for the nostalgia and memories that we made with them.
I honestly prefer the old school packs, where you are not guaranteed a foil. It makes opening packs much more interesting.

I like. That you do the raw value. It shows a realistic price compared to when people just do PSA 10 value if the card. Great video

Ton of nice cards pulled! I never pulled the Ancient Gear Golem back in the day, so it was nice to see him! Old School nearly came back!

I think new packs will have more value, but the old ones have the crazier potential.
def think in the super long term, vintage pulls will be worth more.
@@rangeless 100%. Old school cards don’t have much use in current format, and new school hasn’t been reprinted into oblivion yet.
New packs got more staples, and archtypes seeing use, so value will be higher. However, old packs do have those single cards that can be worth alot, new packs are just more consistent in that smaller value.
Was rooting for the old school packs but knew they would’ve needed a Banger to win against these new sets. As always, thanks for the content!
The newer cards that have some value are in higher rarity and it’s really hard to pull them, but the older cards are having value in every card even the common cards.
pulled the ancient gear golem!! LETS GOO RUXIN. You are always my favorite too watch thanks man
Always rooting for old school. Just wish the packs were cheaper so I could pull for myself. Guess thats why the packs are so expensive though.
You should have added Ra yellow mega pack or a similar reprint pack for old school to compare. Rarity will kill it
I feel like with how many decent value cards one can pull nowadays, its easier to not make a loss
The newer packs are more likely because they're more consistent and contain cards that are desired in modern decks, so I imagine they'll be worth more.
Value is one thing… but there’s something soooo cool about the anticipation of ripping 20 year old packs despite getting nothing but maybe a rare lol
I choose the old packs, reminds me of when I first started out playing. Now that there is no one to play with, I just now collect them.
Some really nice pulls on both sides! I’m not surprised that new won
I think the new packs will have better value just because rarity collection has "guaranteed" value almost, and there's a high chance that you'll pull a meta that's worth something in the new packs.
Age of overlord just has so much base value without getting into high chase rarities
Love the old school, but gotta give it to new with this selection.
I think it all depends on the cards you pull, I'm going for the new packs. Better chance of higher rarities in those, although if you hit the money cards in the old sets that could really turn the tables!
Its always, 1000%, the nostalgia of the old packs!(know its about the 💰)
Thanks for the content, Ruxin! 🎉🎉
new packs are almost always going to win but I think it is a very fun series and I would watch more of it
You should try legacy packs but original vs each year reprints came out up until 25th anniversary if that makes sense.
My man ruxin special the pharaonic guardian pack and called it pharaohs servant and call the trap dustshoot a dust tornado right after 😂😂😂 but I love the mixture of old vs new
Honestly, anytime a price pops up it should add to the amount total, not just the $1+ amounts.

Hmm, I'll go with the older packs, I don't know much about the card prices, but I think the older packs should contain more expensive cards :)
I wanna open rarity collection but can’t find any packs for it mostly because I love packs and deck building lol

Random thought and not sure if it's been done before, but I thought it'd be funny if you did "Opening Packs Until I Ruxin Special"
If the old school packs are first editions, then you’ll have some luck of trying to pull a $100+ card, but I’d take anything for anyone who likes to create decks.
Just getting back into it, fun stuff.
1st ed old packs might be worth more, especially those DM ones. But the meta relevant stuff will probably win it for the modern stuff.
Did i miss it somewhere? Ruxin said hed put the PSA estimate on the old school card he pulled *im not naming it since spoiler* however i didnt see a PSA estimate on it for 9/10?

Old school versus new school is kind of cool I enjoy it
The new stuff is where it's at: qcr Ash blossom, qcr s:p little knight, and collectors rare bonfire. 🔥🎉🏆
New packs will win easy, but the nostalgia with these old packs is top tiers ❤
Honestly it is cooler seeing the old packs but newer packs have more meta cards that see more play than an expensive card that's only used for display. Though I am being subjective, I would love to hear an opposing take.
New packs will definitely have more value right away. That being said I hope today is different and that you pull some rare goodness 🤞
New ones for sure. Also more value to me because I just like seeing new stuff
Nice pull rux glad ur happy with that golem, not finished yet but bro is pushing for some hopium for those bonfires, tryna see them hit moon to $200+ 😂

The potential of older packs is way better. And its nice when nostalgia kicks in!
The old packs are definitely very nostalgic. But the new packs will beat them. The new ones are what I wish the packs were as a kid!
Honestly, Older packs of you High Roll give MUCH more than if you High Roll modern packs
The old school packs will smell better. That’s for sure.
There’s some cool new stuff out there. But nothing hits like old school! 😎
Certainly was expecting the old school to do better but rarity collection makes the difference.
PokeRux new upload right into some vintage, keep crushing Rux 🙌
I think you shouldn't compare set boosters with reprint sets. Maybe if you throw a LCYW in the middle to compete with rarity collection
Old packs always feel so disappointing at the end of the day, but I never get those hits
The game has evolved so much that newer packs will always win these kinds of challenges. But personally, give me the 20 year old packs any day.
Older packs are so hard to make money on. Unless you get amazing pulls, it’s extremely difficult to even break even
Was definitely closer than I thought. Great vid!
Ruxin I was thinking what if you did a search for the Ultimate Rare Odd Eyes Rebellion Dragon from Clash Of Rebellion and try and pull the Odd Eyes Rebellion Dragon in Secret and Ultimate.

Old packs just bring out the nostalgia tbh
i think new due to being more playable the only way i see old school being more expensive is it being some really nostalgic cards that people pay big time
Old actually held its own which was kinda surprising considering the lower pull rates
I think it’s gotta be the new packs for overall value but the OGs can have crazy pulls if you’ve got the luck!
I think the older packs will win because I think Ruxin will pull a really nice old money card
Old school might not have as many of value but the ones that are of value are way higher than the new ones
Was rooting for the OG packs but new packs with their rarities can definitely bump up the value.

Rooting for the older packs!
First. Old school will always be more valuable; but nowadays rarities like starlights. Woah Pot of prosperity QCR!!! Talking about it! xD
Damn😢
I love the titles man. Always makes me laugh. God bless you, Ruxin :)
New school should have the short term value advantage, but oldschool has the potential for special pulls that new school can’t replicate
I think new school packs have the win, especially with age of overlord
How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man!?!?!
New packs on average will generally be better. You get some extreme highs out of the older ones, but those are so rare.
New packs have the chase factor that old packs don't have thus they have higher value.
Older packs I like more but new packs likely going to win here
Nice opening! Old school always win to me
In my opinion the value of newer cards is easier to go down, while the older cards can only grow in value.
The newer packs have more value I think but I love the older cards much much more
ooold school always , i love old school cards
Hey Rux! SDY-E, SDK-E, SDJ, SDP all 1st Edition cards. How much do you think they'd go for ?
I’m going to pull for the old school packs!
I think the new packs will win. There is some crazy value in the old packs, but the new packs have more overall value
I guess it depends what you pull, the new school have more stuff people want to use nut old school can be worth more if you get a oldie but goldie!
