Don’t forget Rudy was still pumping the Metazoo bundled boxes with his family hand drawn artwork promo.
Many LGS got the shaft when they didn’t get the products early while a few stores got it and sold at decent profits.
Did the owner Mike Waddell pay the IP for using Kuromi with the last set ?
TCG had a fire sale on Metazoo Kuromi set when it wasn’t selling very well at 50% discount.
One of the worst TCG managed company in history.
Nightfall boxes to 500
Mark i think that the reactions are just proof of the old saying: it is easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.
Indeed!
I would absolutely buy Metazoo boxes at $2 each. That's cheaper than firewood in the winter.
Firewood smells better when burned.
Hey mark can you do a video on the future of grand archive and how you think it’ll go this metazoo situation has me alittle nervous collecting other kickstarter tcgs
Yes for sure. Grand Archive deserves a video.
@@SolarGamesllc appreciate it :)
@@SolarGamesllc what about sorc
Metazoo, the paper version of Cryptozoo.
I really like your content. Very even keeled and intellectually honest discussions.
As a LGS owner, metazoo felt like one of the worst games possible to buy into. Games with basically 0 organic growth and a bunch of internet goons hyping it up is a massive red flag.
"Whale Wars" -- ok, that had me rolling. Imagine such a thing in the Magic world -- the security and insurance expenses would be insane.
Where's the money? Im going to guess in some large suitcases, the walls of the house and in some offshore numbered accounts.
It feels like aggressive monetization compromises the intent of what these games were meant to be; I was bummed out when this happened to videogames but it seems like more and more companies want to collect rent instead of providing me a memorable play experience.
I wonder what TCG's will get a boost from metazoo's collapse? Pokemon seems like an easy choice, but there is going to be a certain amount of collectors that abandon the TCG world after a betrayal of this scale.
The money was sent to Rudy Chan. He's got 10 more promos in the works. Think about it. Rudy celebrated 6.9 years of his channel (mostly magic videos) with metazoo mystery boxes. lol.
Stfu bro, Mike is having the time of his life. 😂
Tony IP lawyer pokemon investor steak dinner multi accounts going to the moon bb.
As someone who watched 99.9% of tcg's die over the last 30 years and someone who bought Rage boxes from EBgames for $6, if I had ANY Metazoo right now then I'd be undercutting everyone fast.
You could have bought Kickstarter boxes directly from Metazoo, on their site for $78 a box. You could have done that all the way up until the day after the first Rudy video and 3 weeks later you could have sold those boxes for $2k easily. 6 months later, 3k and on and on over the following 6 months. Mike showed us the hundreds and hundreds of boxes he still had on stream that he said would be kept for prizes in the future. I would bet anything he dumped them fast haha
I'm a huge Sorcery fan but I'm realistic. I can't wait to see your take on it!
Holy shit Dave’s dugout is such a throwback I miss that place
AWW YEEEEE, so you from the old dayz.
All the talk about how money was the selling point of MetaZoo reminds me of the Battle Spirits reboot where even the tutorial video said you'll make money from it.
Not a single local store in my entire country wanted to touch Battle Spirits with a 50meter pole btw, just a small fun fact. And another fun fact according to the local owners Bandai very aggresively tried to shove down Battle Spirits down them just because they carried other Bandai TCGs.
Yeah that doesn't sound like organically growing a community.
We know where the money is. somewhere offshore. #metazoo #cryptozoo #coffeezilla
RIP
Great takes. I keep wondering why would anyone buy the IP? It's not an original IP, anyone could make a cryptic game.
Dollar Tree Pokemon.
HEY HEYYY HEYYYYYYYYYY.... WASO- WASO- WASOOOOO!! *METAAAPOOOOOOOOOO!!*
Lmao
Lol 😅 never even heard of this game until the shutdown news, God forbid if you put money into that Kickstarter, Mike is laughing to the bank as we speak 😂😂😂
I feel like the NFTs scared off a ton of people
I like Mark already 😂😂😂. I like how he doesn't give a shit about the snowflakes' feelings 😊
I know nothing of sorcery. The art looks amazing but play sounds complex. Pokemon was always a basic bitch game. I bought 0 of Metazoo. Instead, I got my Moat.
Basically what I did.
I was kicking meda zoo when the owner/creator did that crazy interview when the game launched and was like not my money not my friends.
They rugged?
"I spent all my money on MetaZoo"
Imagine being the idiot who did that for real.
I cant imagine that this mike wont be investigated or audited for financial issues.
It does not matter that you missed one piece, they reprinting everything :) Rudy is the same with MTG on one hand Rudy is the champion of the poor LGS-es that get Amazoned but on the other hand he selling thousands of boxes a week to ballers under the LGS prices who dont need to buy at an LGS anymore :)
Can you please use a higher volume? most laptops do not have speakers and I have to use subtits to hear it
I hope you can keep true to the promise. I'm done with that game, no need to discuss it any further as to how, why and such it ended up where it did.
After all, it cost a lot of LGS a lot of money and that harmed much more than just the few players and collectors.
Get the meme plow bro, it's time to start farming content! xD
I'm so glad I never picked it up, and stuck to Magic and Pokémon.
.... Playmats with stitched edging with print on demand is a mere five bucks. Tcgs need to serve all the legs of the tripod. Metazoo served 1 (collectors). Not a way to sustain a business.
Another reason I believe GA will collapse eventually. Stagnated growth it seems. Serving collectors and org play the most. Anyone that wants to play a game like this casually is more likely to just play FaB or One Piece or even Magic.
Also their meta so far has been more stale than even og FaB.
I largely agree with the Metazoo comments; but the story about the LGS in the 90’s is concerning.
Instead of buying an Unl. Lotus for $500 instead of buying Pokemon. Thats such a shortsighted view to take. If you just bought 125 Base Set Unlimited packs at $4 each you could sell them at $300 a piece today earning $37,500. That is $17,500 more than the cheapest Unl. Lotus on TCG at the time of writing this.
Those people who make games do not understand $100+ booster boxes is not a game anymore, thats a days work for a starbucks barista lol! a game needs players! a lot of players look at WOTC when they started $1,95 once you have millions of players you can root them out like WOTC by making new boxes that are more expensive than older ones.
Rudy went long kekw
I have many thoughts about all of this. However, the way you started yesterday's video could be seen as heartless and cold, and when people have strong feelings toward something and someone comes along with little to no empathy and $#!+$ on it. People who are emotionally and financially tied to that will rally back hard. That's just psychology/ human nature
0 sympathy for them fools 😂
Nah Mike and Metazoo were the assholes first. They gotta take it up the ass now. Reap what u sow. There aint no heartless being here. Mans banned people and LGS for criticism, positive criticism. So Yes zero empathy will be given when Goliath falls.
😂 imagine being in a position where any of this is surprising or needing explanation 😂
Metazoo also has never paid out any of the winners of their events.
Are you serious? I mean I get that now, but back when they won events, they never got paid? That sound cringe.
The Dungeons And Joypads YT channel had an eye-opening perspective about MetaZoo from a UK-based LGS perspective. That was a great, but depressing video. Sounds like Grand Archive has the right attitude to go far👍
You messed up. You should have asked for 50 booster boxes and a bag of cheetos for 100.00 let me know next time you want to bargain. Ill help you out.
Sucks man, the art and concept was great...
Sadly they seemed to take the CRYPTid literally. Dang all for short term greed
Great video, but bro aint no one give a shit about grand archive.
I just spent 2 days casting a tournament for 208 players… that seems like some people care.
Who will tank first... Sorcery or Grand Archive?
Sorcery, GA won’t ever tank
GA for sure as sorcery won't follow the traditional model. Also sorcery scratches an itch most games can't as it's more of a board game in play. GA is just a worse head to head duel game (magic or fab or one piece etc). Also the anime style is more niche than the other 3.
Is sorcery still a thing?
Sorcery,
You have to understand something, people who are in GA are in it for the gameplay.
That is a sign of a healthy TCG basis.
GA will fail if, and only if the devs fuckup their financer or roadmap somehow.
@@Tronjheimr honestly hilarious to think the 50th anime card game will have any staying power
As a 11yr old kid i saw an alpha black lotus in a display case with a sticker tag of $300. I knew it was alpha because the magazine said those were worth $300. Had no more than $50 in my pocket. Prolly wouldnt have bought the card if i had the money, beause what 11yr kid would spend that kind of money. I was stupid
yes i think you miss one piece, but one piece is still early and reprint is coming
Perfect tcg ideas for me is all cards are playable at an uncommon level and rare/sr/ etc.... are full art, foils, etc... the cool cards that are super playable would be valuable in their rare form. The players can play decks by busting a few boxes and the collectors and money bag players have chase cards.
Pokemon is kind of like that. It's super cheap to play competitively but they also have chase cards for collectors or people that want to bling out their deck
stockholm syndrome
Imagine buying metazoo and really defending it ever😂😂😂
Hilarious 😂
New sub here! At least we all meet a bunch of new people from this debacle
😂 intro big W!
I have to thank my daughter for lending me her cellphone as I have lost all my money with MetaZoo.
