Thanks for watching & DFTBA! :)
So for those who don’t know what Break cards do, they essentially act as an additional evolution but instead of covering the entire card below it, it instead just gives you an extra ability and more health.
I love those
dosent seem to bad for battle
@@GalleryArtt Yeah, it does sound good, however it was waaaaay too slow, especially for stage 2 pokemon, which are already slow and then you basically go stage 3. It just wasn't worth it much of the time, except from very few exceptions, like Greninja Break, which was viable because of a very good break ability and because it was able to cheat evolution lines, because of a Frogadier, which was able to use an attack to put as many Frogadier as you wanted on the bench
Xerneas, Carbink, and Greninja breaks were good
@@maaxk1237 I remember when I was playing back in the day some other BREAKs were used to make Top Cuts, Xerneas was good for a short time after a Worlds rotation, Zoroark BREAK was used in Zoroark decks (lots of them ran amok in Expanded at the time), you mentioned Greninja BREAK which got 2nd at Worlds, and Carbink was used because of Safeguard Carbink and Strong Energy in the format. I think some of BREAKs such as Noctowl, and Delphfox being used in rouge decks.
I remember when this set came out. Me and my brother bought a lot of packs because we thought the dual typing gimmick was really fun and cool.
From what I remember, we got a lot of mediocre pulls and then lost our minds getting that full art Sycamore and the MEGA Dual type Gardivoir EX.
I don’t even remember what else we got, we have too many cards to count.
I also got that card!
The first card set my sister opened happened to have a yveltal break and we were over the roof
I do hope we get more duel type cards, I love multi-colored cards in tcgs
When i saw the thumbnail i thought he was going to ruin my childhood arcade card
I love how obnoxious break cards are, their designs are some of my favorites
The story behind these is actually amazing. It basically has to do with two alternate dimensions that crashed together. This is one is really the result of those two worlds colliding. Modern day crashed into a more mythic age and those worlds being put together made this kinda steampunks world. It all happened cuz of Hoopa opening just SO MANY portals.
If anyone wants to hear more lockstin goes into it on his favorite card art episode. I’ll go make sure after I finish this video.
AHA found it! It’s titled “when the cards tell a story” highly recommended it you may get a new appreciation for these packs.
Woah I didn't know the Pokemon TCG had lore outside of just the regular Pokemon Lore
@@rescuerex7031 didn’t either before seeing that video a while back. Really is cool tho.
@@solarixstar Does SwSh do some cool lore things in the Lockstin Video it was just like the standard these pokemon are interacting with eachother stories (I guess I could just look at the Card art lol)
@@rescuerex7031 sadly I’m not sure. I definitely haven’t noticed any background details like these in the newer packs. Maybe since no one picked up on the idea the Pokémon Company decided to scrap any further ideas? New card arts all look cool but they don’t have a real worldwide plot like these and the preceding series did.
@@solarixstar that's lame especially since they deleted Fairy type from the TCG so I thought there'd be a story around why that happened
The Foongus and Amoongus bit that happened at the 10:15 pack is pure gold.
agreed
The Foongus and the Amoonngus
Wait hold on... AMONG US
@@pohjunxun yep
I may have Clipped it, and then watched it for like 5 minutes.
I actually really like that you don't mention the monetary value of the individual cards! Your personal style really works for me, love your style, keep it up!
I also feel you on having a "pokemon knowledge" gap. I knew my gen 1 trough 4 and kinda fell off afterwards. My partner got me back into pokemon about 2 years ago, and I've been playing catch-up on my pokemon knowledge as well
Steam seige has some cool cards in it, I think the dismay with it is they made way too much and put it in every product ever and were still putting it in things long long LOOONG after the XY era and people got fed up with it.
Yeah but thing is its good they made alot of steam siege as that keeps the prices of it accessible and low cost like it should be, most of the sets with low print runs are the expensive ones
There weren't enough desirable cards in steam siege to warrant a reprint. Lol that's the whole point
@@jamesgraves9858 Pokemon TCG fans are the same people that eat up every set with charizard in it like robots. They don't deserve much in my experience LMAOOOO
@@jamesgraves9858 Full art Sycamore ( a 4 of in many decks )
Had many different engine cards in it ( one for fairies, for darks, for fires )
Had the core to what was literally a tournament topping deck at the time and the core to a high tier deck featuring a fan favorite Pokémon.
When people say SS lacked desirable cards I immediately call it out as false. It had the top played trainer in full art as well as had the top meta deck core in it. Like undesirable to who? People who don’t play?
@@zzeroara9511 i don’t understand your phrasing of “are the same people” it’s kind of redundant
Hey I think it's fine that you don't know how to pronounce every Pokémon name. It gives your videos a certain charm you wouldn't likely find elsewhere, with those that claim to be Poké-pros. And never trust meme-based opinions. Those are the dumbest..
It irks the shit out of me
There’s no way or anything, like I still watched and enjoyed his other channel for a long time it’s just super hard to hear most the time
I can’t either
@@jonjones4473 But why? Do you never struggle with pronouncing something? Is it weird for someone to love and enjoy something, without being able to properly pronounce it?
My guess is the answers are yes and no. So there's really no reason to feel irked about something so trivial :)
@@Apophis324 you’re trippin, all I said was it bothers me when I hear it, I didn’t say anything about him not being able to enjoy something cause he doesn’t know how to pronounce it, I don’t leave nasty comments calling him a poser, I’m a fan and I know how it is supposed to be pronounced so it bothers me, that’s it, here the gold medal for over analyzing though 😂
4:09 it’s simply a dual type card.
It’s both a Water and Fairy type for the purposes of gameplay.
This was done only one other time before this, during the EX-Era (the one with the lower-case _ex)._
Weren't these cards also Shiny Pokemon
@@bearmoodsz2702 yep
@@bearmoodsz2702 except volcanion for some reason
i had those azumarill, they were awesome
Fun little detail about the Steam Seige cards: a lot of them have a conected "theme". If you know what to look for, quiet a view of them have a sort of red "cloud" bleading into the card design in the background, which is representing a rift between two timelines/universes. If I remember right, that was also the reason some of the cards have double typing. (For more detail, I recoment the video "When the Cards tell a story..." by Lockstin & Gnoggin. The video is all about different pokemon cards that have hidden connections and secretly tell a story! )
When you said 8 years old i really thought this was recorded in 2024
So real
I first started collecting Pokémon cards during the xy era. With as much hate as it gets, it still holds a special place in my heart.
Yeah it's definitely a okay set in my book but I definitely also don't hate it i do like that the price isn't through the roof like xy Evolutions or flash fire Primal Clash you get the point
The secret rares between Breakthrough and Steam Siege are what I like to call the Arita Secret Rares as all of them are drawn by Mitsuhiro Arita.
I think people should better examine the type of artists and designers who make the Pokemon and characters.
18:18 Ultra rares of the XY-Era sets had a much lower pullrate than in todays sets.
I had opened a box of Furious Fists when it was new, and I only got five EXes out of the entire box, three regular EXes (Lucario, Heracross & Dragonite) and two Full-Art EXes (Lucario & Heracross).
From one of those old etbs I got dragonite ex lucario ex and heracross ex
@@Eddisdedd way to flex on me
Didnt mean to im sorry
Probably why I prefer EX cards over Vs, also the art on EX cards are just better in my opinion
Honestly I think that V's are rarer than EX pull rate wise, I had really good luck with EX era
Just found your channel and you've already become one of my favorite pokemon card channels! There's a genuineness to your appreciation to the cards themselves, and not just what they're worth. and I think it's actually even more endearing that you're enjoying getting back into the hobby after being out of it for a long time A lot of the bigger channels have gotten so caught up in "chasing the chase" and the only focus is monetary profit. Also just really appreciate listening to you just talk about cards and sets and your thoughts etc, so I'm really excited to binge the rest of your videos and watching your new videos as they come out!
I also do agree that the set gets a bit more flack than it deserves. Along with the Azumaril card, the Shiftry and Bisharp cards you pulled are all shiny pokemon!
I personally love how you do the card pulls and commentary! The cards for me have never been about rarity, just the cool art and pokemon I like... and some holos of course! But it's nice to see someone so humble and genuine in their love for pokemon, even if it doesn't mean knowing them all. It's a relaxing time here :)
This is the set that I grew up on. The majority of the cards in my collection are from this set, or the other xy sets. Nice to see it getting some love!
17:51 As a diabetic, I actually flinched as I thought it was my own glucose monitor going off. Great video btw
I love your Pokémon card commentary! It makes me smile. The “blind spots” and having nostalgia, and just not playing the games is a trope that I actually kinda like, my Bf does that haha. He just got into the cards and is having so much fun with them. I LOVE seeing you put your favourites to the side, all the flaafy’s are kept safe… I hope you make more videos similar to this one, i had blast watching it and watching you find new Pokémon to enjoy
This is one of the most chill/casual yet engaging Pokemon Card pack openings I've seen in a long time, love how the commentary isn't just reading the names of the cards back to back all the time, love how you just talk over the pack opening sometimes to make the video far less repetitive
the x/y era was where i got most of my cards. I was always so annoyed when i kept getting freakin rufflets, fletchling, aipom, and ponyta. (and luxio break. I got multiple for some reason.)
Damn, people hate Steam Siege?? That sucks! I have very fond memories of pulling a Secret Rare full art Gardovoir from this set.
I remember that I used to like this set, and I never understood the hate it got. It was a pretty decent set to me, and i've pulled quite a few cool cards! Seeing this video reminds me that the pull rates for the sets back then were pretty different from today, maybe it's just this set but the pulls are pretty scarce
I do love how you take the time to appreciate some of the card arts! I feel like that's something not a lot of people do, and it's a nice refresher from some peeps just reading the names as you said. Nice content, earned a sub. Excited to see more!
I forgot how bad xy booster pull rates were compared to swsh and modern era boxes this was an ouch
iI believe the problem most people had with Steam Siege was that it stayed a bit longer than most other sets, and it was mass produced by a large margin, so it was everywhere, and wouldn't stop popping up because of the extra stock
Something that also helps the energy stay up is watching these back on 2x speed. 😂 Its great, to be honest. But, also I want to see everything in the limited time I have to watch 💜
Hey Foafy! Just wanted to let you know that because of you, I have started collecting pokemon again. I had to start from scratch unfortunately, (I would have had some really cool cards from Platinum through XY had I kept my old ones from wen I was little). But still its been really fun, and even more so because I feel like I was informed by your approach in just appreciating the cards for their beauty and rarity, outside of monetary value. Funnily enough, you pulled the steam seige Aipom, a card that is one of my favourites, and youve mentioned many times that base set two is one of your favourite sets, and just the other day I bought two random 4$ packs from a dollarstore, and managed to pull a sword and shield promo holo eevee, 3 XY evolutions cards, one neogenesis card, a base set card, and last but not least a base set 2 pokemon center and base set 2 onix. So, yeah, basically I just wanted to say thanks for reintroducing pokemon for me.
Hey man, I'm not really into poketubers much but I find your joy and disregard to the monetary value on the cards very refreshing. I know next to nothing about pokemon cards but it was pretty hype watching you geek out over your favorite pokemon cards and liking the art of some. You seem to be the borderline-casual type of card-pack-opener I needed to find. Keep it up, friend
Did he not realize the Bisharp card at 29:55 was a shiny one as well? XD
Those Pokémon like Azumarill, Galvantula and Volcanion(I think there’s also a Bisharp) are called dual types. All the ones other then Volcanion show the Shiny instead of the normal Pokémon color(Blue Bisharp, Gold Azumarill, and Galvantula’s shiny changes barely to a darker tone of blue then usual)
There is a bisharp and I was trying to find a comment mentioning this
I didn't think an expansion that I like would be hated by most of the TCG community. Bringing back the Dual-Type cards and making each dual-typed Pokemon shiny was one of the best thing they've done (aside from bringing back Lv. X as BREAK cards), and I wish it was brought back again for longer.
X/Y is totally my Era! I would love to see more card pack unboxings from X/Y! My favorite is Fennekin ❤
Nah bro sun and moon and swsh is so much better. I respect your opinion tho, it was a pretty nice era.
@DesiredEternity yeah fair enough, xy was pretty good
I'd love to see more XY stuff and see if you can pull any Mega Evolutions!
I remember when they did the split and I had got a Volcarona that was like grass fire. I thought it was so cool but fell on hard times and had to sell it with almost all my cards. I wish I hadn't because I had over 200 on top of some other specials.
Dude I used to love the split cards. When I was just learning to build a deck I made a point to have dual type Galvantula with my Riachu GX deck
I had a dual type Azumarill, can't remember if it was legit or (borrowed) from some kid from school though.
In love with that Foongus and mantine actually
Also I know this is a slightly older video now but I personally really appreciate not having the prices flash up on screen. ESP coz so often TH-camrs who do that will skip over the commons and not talk about the art at all. I mean I understand it coz the shiny cards are exciting. I am not immune to the shiny either. But some of my favourite cards are commons/uncommons so I wish they got some more love in those videos.
Also I love the idea of doing a casual Q&A pack opening.
It was soul crushing to open this set. I was about 10 when it came out and my mom would buy me a pack every once in a while and there was just no chance with these packs.
I was around when they released this set and I could understand why this set was hated, this set was one of the less enjoyed sets. One thing for sure I feel that many people hated this set was because this set was put into many things like tins and other similar bundle-like things. Another reason in my opinion was because that apparently the pull rates (many people consider it being a holo or greater) was apparently increased in Sun and Moon and there was cooler stuff like rainbow rares. This set was also one of the last set of XY and I never hear anyone talk about Margarina and Volcanion so they might have not been pokemon many people cared about plus the break cards are somewhat easy to get and were never seen as cool cards to get. Personally, I don't hate this set but I never got anything better than a Margarina full art and some break cards, but when you compared it to generations which released around the same time or at least was the set between fates collide and steam siege. Steam siege definitely felt like the more underwhelming set-in comparison to the set that had many og full arts, mega's and ex's while fates collide didn't really have any cool cards besides the full art umbreon and secret alakazam but it wasn't pushed into other bundles like how steam siege was because I heard there were putting in steam siege stuff into some of the earlier Sword and Shield stuff (don't take my word for this Sword and Shield stuff bc I can't say for certain but people definitely did not like how this set kept on coming back up in the newer bundles at least at the time)
I'm glad you don't put the card prices when you pull something. Really over how central investing and the money aspect of pokemon has become. I rather people just appreciate the cards for other reasons like art, playability and history. Can mean alot more that way instead of just PRICETAG.
There’s so little of this set being opened now, nice to see! ❤️
Honestly I have the exact same sentiment towards opening up cards for the sake of opening rather than "Hey look I made this much money getting these cards!" Like obviously if you're aware of the general price of cards it'll influence how excited you get over the big cards, but your cool and casual attitude towards opening cards is very refreshing to see! Battle Styles was also the first modern set I got to get back into collecting so it's got a special place for me even if it's pretty unloved compared to sets like Evolving Skies.
Why the hell is this set hated??? Seriously, it brings me so many good memories. Reminds me of my teenage years
I would love this q&a thought. It would be fun to learn more about you with the openings
its nice to see you open these and see how many of these cards i actually remember having, i never realized i had so many lol, and seeing you open them makes me actually really happy
This was one of the first sets I opened when I first got into the card game, so this video made me feel quite nostalgic
Has anyone else ever realised how well pokemon card openers are able to just talk about absolutely nothing important and somehow perfectly keep your attention?
Because you're also focusing on the cards so it fills the void
I've actually started collecting all of the Break cards recently. Funnily enough the pyroar break from steam siege has been the most expensive one so far.
I honestly feel the same about Steam Siege, I got into Pokémon right before Sword and Shield came out, so this was one of the first sets I experienced. I got some awesome cards, including the shiny Mega Gardevoir AND the alt-art with Yveltal. I'm honestly happy to open ANY sets that came before the Sword and Shield era. I'm really glad you gave it a chance and enjoyed it, I loved watching!
Btw, your lack of excitement for the shiny Bisharp bothered me, I'd be over the moon 🤣 (love the Azumarill, too)
First video ive watched of yours but i absolutely love the chiller vibes and not obnoxiously overreacting and loud music. Cant wait to watch more
I can't believe you just brushed past seductive ambipom. That card is so weird that it's one of my absolute favourites.
It's at 5:04, for anyone wondering.
Just found your channel, very glad I did! I like how you take your time opening packs, my favorite part of the opening a pack is appreciating the art. And believe me, as a mega fan of Pokémon, those people commenting about you being a “fake fan” don’t get it. Everyone starts somewhere! Keep doing what you enjoy!
These videos have a real charm to them. Love your energy.
You are the only Pokemon unboxer that I watch because I love that you are focused on the card art & design and not the prices! I think your commentary is perfect too!
It'd be cool to see some more XY stuff, but Sun and Moon was genuinely so fun for collecting the tcg
The pulls were also pretty good from what I remembered, though I got into the tcg in SM base set so I could have nostalgia bias
Can you show us how you get the prices for the cards and how to see how rare they are? Im getting into pokemon cards so it would be very helpful!
tcg site !!
I like how you take some time to stop and look at the art for each card instead of just breezing through it looking for rare ones. Great video!
I know this is an older video but you have the best format I’ve seen for opening Pokémon cards. I appreciate your personal commentary and it’s fun to see you get excited for the Pokémon and the art rather than the monetary value. The art was always my favorite thing about the cards.
I started collecting cards around this time, and I went bonkers when I got A break wobofet and break ho-oh. Break cards are some of my favorites.
Steam Siege was not a bad set when it released. Xerneas (Rainbow Road) was a popular deck back then with all the dual type pokemon. Volcanion EX was also a strong card back then as well. The Mega Gardevoir EX saw play in expanded with the Giratina from Sun/Moon Lost Thunder when that came out. But since then, Steam Siege has fallen out of relevancy and the pulls from the set just aren't that exciting anymore. Steam Siege also became "that one pack" you always got in every pokemon product. It was annoying because there aren't any valuable cards in the set and nothing in the set is "playable" anymore with regards to the TCG. So it felt like a wasted pack.
That foongus amoongus bit was awesome lolol 10:39
Hi, I’m loving these videos. and I love the weekly uploads
My wife just recently got into pokemon and I love hearing her try to pronounce the names of the pokemon just because they aren't the correct pronunciation doesn't mean anything the fact is that shes enjoying her time playing just like you enjoy you're time opening packs.
Oh my god! I remember this kid at my school having the xerneas break and talonflame break I think, if that even is a thing and not my failing memory. I remember wanting those golden cards... I remember ~6 year old me getting so excited when I got a blastoise spirit link, because for my kid self it was the closest I'd get to a good card.
These cards are from the time I started collecting, so this video was a nostalgia trip. Now I have quite a bit of GX/EX (I get them mixed up a lot) cards and valuable reverse holos :)
I love how he just stops and just. AMMOONGUS
I ended purchasing the singles I wanted from Steam Siege (significantly cheaper). The best card I pulled was actually a crimped Monferno lol.
Oh yea, also : the Golden Azumarill and Bisharp you pulled are shinies. They're just not ... stated as "Radiant" like the newest extensions
“agh my blood sugar” is also my dad’s response to his tester, pleasant surprise hearing that LMAO
I don't normally like pack opening videos, but something about your vids is just so captivating. Maybe it's just because other people focus so much on the price. I can just tell from your voice how much fun you're having, even when you're just reading Pokémon names, and that energy is infectious
You should open pokemon cards from Japan or Korea they only have 5 cards per pack but they have way better luck and have more booster packs per booster box
Start pronouncing more names wrong so more comments and then more recommendations on the agoritiom
At 17:49 when he said oh my blood sugar it made me realize the diabetes joke earlier was not a joke
I’ve just discovered your channel with this video! I collected them when I was young just for the fun of it, and I appreciate that you don’t really fixate on the prices and just focus on the fun of it. I’m subscribing for sure!
Foafy trying to justify his lack of knowledge of Gen 4 and onward, but still doesn't know about a Gen 3 Pokemon (being Anorith) makes me chuckle a little
But that's fine, I'm sure he'll remeber them all ! Before Gen 9 let's hope-
For people who wanna know, these are all the cards and prices Foafy pulled in this video:
Xerneas Break is worth $60 at PSA 10 6:32
Professor Sycamore is worth $50 at PSA 10 12:13
Xerneas [holo] is worth $41 at PSA 10 13:50 and 25:55
Shiftry [holo] is worth $56 at PSA 10 18:49 and 23:08
Volcanion EX [full-art] is worth $80 at PSA 10 19:40
Magearna EX is worth $25 at PSA 10 22:11
Volcanion EX is worth $40 at PSA 10 24:20
Chandelure [holo] is worth $70 at PSA 10 25:15
Yveltal [holo] is worth $20 at PSA 10 28:00
Bisharp [holo] is worth $78 at PSA 10 29:55
Ampharos [holo] is worth $50 at PSA 10 30:50
Talonflame Break is worth $25 at PSA 10 31:45
In total, the cards are worth about $692 (I did this by my own research and some prices might not be the same)
Hey Foafy! I got into cards again after battles styles too. Definitely agree the set is super underrated
You're not a poser for still being new, I am glad you are enjoying the franchise, and I am sorry people are gatekeeping you!
10:42 foongus
10:53 amoonguss
I have many break cards and I think they are pretty cool tbh. I don’t get the lash for it…? I found them to be fairly unique!
Also I loved that he ended with an Amoongus
Amogus
I remember seeing them and thinking they were so cool because they looked golden
I think the coherent feeling about gen 2 might be related to memories and nostalgia because I personally feel like gen 7 has an insanely coherent feeling with all of them giving off the tropical and exotic feeling . Gen 6 also quite feel like that but without the exotic feeling as both Kalos and Galar have their origins quite close to my home
iirc, gen 2 pokemon are effectively just an extension of gen 1 as there was a limit to how much data could be stored in the original gen 1 game cartridges, so gen 2 featured pokemon that they ran out of space for in the original game. I think there are definitely pokemon in later gens where the style is more complex or feature more than two colors, but I think that impression probably comes more from nostalgia and the loss of pastel watercolor art that you'd find in stuff like game walkthroughs and box art, or even the simplicity of the old tv show. If magmar or jynx were released this day, they would be branded just the same as any of the other new pokemon's designs I bet.
I remember this set for being one of the available sets when I first got into The trading cards I think my first pack was generations but this was probably one of the first I open so I love the set and hate evolution because they are way too abundant that’s the one that should be hated just so many evolution packs I have four secret rare here comes team rockets I don’t need all of them (did I just complain about having too many secret rares)
Steam siege is a nice set, the reason it is hated on is the same as when xy evolutions was hated at the time and that was due to how commen they were every tin or collection box had them.
I like how you are not including the price because personally I put a big portion of the blame for the current inflation of these cards on them bcasue Logan Paul and scalpers would have seen these prices and jumped on them to profit hurting the community.
Super nostalgic watching u open these packs. I stopped collecting after break because I kinda lost interest but watching u go through these packs is just so great. I actually recently got into the cards again and started playing the online tcg. It's good stuff
For me the actual card game is so hard to understand
tip to pulling cards, i usually hold the cards from the side with my thumb and index fingertips and pull up or down. it’s helps keep the suspense of the last two cards because you won’t be able to see the last two cards at all!
dude i have like 1-3 break cards, when i got back into pokemon cards, i asked my friend "are break cards worth any money" and he just stared at me like i was kidding or something 😆
The thing I hate the most about steam seige is how they made the multi-type pokemon look, like they look genuinely bad. They couldn't split it down the middle like digimon or give it a nice blend or special frame like magic cards have. Its just uncomfortable to look at.
"My blood sugar!" Lmao
It’s great to see someone new opening cards. I find watching more prominent openers can get stale because they don’t take their time viewing the cards, and they really only care about the sets with monetary value. Your bit on Rebels Clash and Battle Styles was great. People only care about the sets with Charizard and whatever is expensive, and just ignoring other sets.
Hi I love Ur vids
This is the most raw and honest channel I’ve seen since Deriums. Loved the video keep it up!
"my blood sugar!" some reason that got me to giggle
Steam seige can eat a microwave and I wouldn't call my mom fr
i can really relate to you in the fact that you got into the card collecting wayyy later. i got into it during sun and moon, probably 2018 or so with some here-and-theres in 2016. i also don't know how to play the game either, so its really relatable to hear that older packs are nostalgic and cool (i think so too!)
i think one of my favourite pulls was a tag-team espeon and deoxys GX holo from the unified minds set.
thank you foafy for this video i was looking for a video and this poped up
22:27 bro let out a little giggle💀
"It leads to sets that go- ooh, Rapidas!" -Foafy, 2022
24:19 Now here’s a card that was hot for a second or two in the meta.
PLEASE open more XY packs! That was the timeframe I was collecting, and miss it alot. This video brought back alot of memories
Steam siege was the set that would appear in boxes and tins 1-2 years after sun and moons release, they over printed it and it wouldnt go away. Same happened to evolutions but not to the same extent
This set was my life. I opened so many packs of this set when I was young.
What a trip, I still own these cards.
this video is a little old..but i also have a fondness for underdog sets like steam siege. i really appreciate how you open packs and appreciate the art on commons/uncommon cards. im an artist myself, and seeing someone appreciate art on every card and not just the hits is super cool :)
