    One of the artists that did alternate art for this set (Liliana) was Yoshitaka Amano, who was one of the lead character designers for Final Fantasy (Up until Final Fantasy VI, but he kept doing promotional art for some of the Final Fantasy games after that). I know you have interest in the Final Fantasy series, so I thought I'd mention that. He's also credited with creating and working on several other popular Anime and video games.

    One complaint, please, in the future, if you don't know if it's alternate art, please just look it up rather than trying to guess and go back and forth between saying we're getting one in every pack and one every other pack.

    There's a Japanese War of the Spark box at my local game store right now for $150. Is it worth the buy at this point?

    Lol, that is one of the most value-packed box of WAR you opened. Without counting the alternate-art ones.

    CSG in Jacksonville was actually the place I hung out at a majority of my time down there, some really cool people work there.
    That being said, I thought it would be necessary to add that was a normal Narset and the Second Angrath was normal, and a special Tibalt, the rest were accurate reactions pm

    This dude got one of the best alternate art box openings I have ever seen. Also, Rudy you missed some and put some non alternate in the alternate art pile lol

  • @Pazuriel
    @Pazuriel 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you are unsure, check out the artist name on the bottom of the card. You'll recognize the household names like Slawomir Maniak and Aleksi Briclot = not alternate artwork.

    Yep, I was screechin at the screen. Soo many regular arts being called alternates. Gotta agree though, those alternates look nice.

  • @ClampEEGEE
    @ClampEEGEE 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Protip for the next one if you open another: The alternate arts have the artist name in Japanese.
    Also, they're expensive because the boxes aren't easy to get, not because the cards themselves aren't easy to get in packs.

    • @eicha41624
      @eicha41624 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Truth. I spent a few hours in Akihabara looking for them and only one store had boxes and wouldn't sell more than one per customer.

    This is not a negative comment. I just want some information. How many boxes do you have to buy for every new set to justify the 15 dollars a month you have to pay on patreon to get the 79 dollars shipped? Do sets come out every 3 months or less? So that's 45 dollars in patreon money. It just feels like your paying retail price for the box or higher with the patreon. Idk can someone enlighten me?

  • @kingguy3
    @kingguy3 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The rares are 8~10x as expensive as their normal
    And some alt art uncommon are worth 10x too like narset's alter because of the value of the good looking art
    The foil tamiyo... that's about 100$
    Also the chance to get an alter is about 50%
    And getting a foil of that alter is really rare. That's why the foil alt art of Liliana is going about 1000$ because no one has gotten one. Foil Bolas alt art, one was sold for 350$ here in my country.

      I was there in Tokyo on release night opening boxes. Some dude opened 100 boxes and no foil alt art lili but I went around the shops and found at least 5 cheapest was roughly 800 USD.

  • @johnnyscifi

    The Narset you pulled is normal art. Huatli, and Mo Yianglin was alternate art...;)

      He also put Alt Tibalt into the regular pile.

  • @owenmacrowski
    @owenmacrowski 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Rudy I think the reason these things are pretty darn pricy is partially bc it is like Full Art/Secret rare cards in Pokemon, which are expensive (although i cant explain how they are worth so much when they are so common in boxes, cuz in pokemon boxes you might get like 2-4 in a box)

  • @andypham4216

  • @Alittlefruitgoesalongway
    @Alittlefruitgoesalongway 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Man, I thought this alternate art thing was just a lame gimmick. Then I saw the art up close in Rudy's camera. My gosh...
    So many of these just look stunning to me. The art style is awesome. I'm gonna have to get a few of them now.

  • @Garvounet
    @Garvounet 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    For what I've read, you actually have a 50% chance to get an alternate artwork in those japanese boosters if you were wondering :)

  • @greeksotiris

    Seriously, those alternative artworks are awesome. If they sell card sleevs with those arts, it would be an insta-buy.

    Indication: cardmarket Europe: regular Narset 2000+ available, Alt-Narset: 200 available. Do the math;)
    You just had some kind of a God-box for Japanese. You pulled all the good ones except for the one.They are expensive because 1; boxes are hard to get (like sold out),
    2:They're ONLY in Japanese boxes
    3:Only 1 in 2 are Alt (and you got realy lucky with the pulls).

  • @TheMasterNull
    @TheMasterNull 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Non-Foil alternate art Narset is like $26 on TCGplayer. I want to know why the supply is so low that an uncommon costs as much as a mythic.

    Those alternate artwork cards are pretty cool. Most of them look like anime characters, which makes sense.

    • @CozyToad

      My two favorite of the ones he pulled were tamiyo foil ofc and karn, I prefer original bolas to the alt art

  • @almogdov
    @almogdov 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    My box had exactly 18 alternate arts. Just in the middle of the 50% rate.
    Was still a rather ridiculous box with a liliana, a lot of the 25+$ ones and 3 gods and 2 finales.
    They do look so much better in paper than in

  • @Derpderp389
    @Derpderp389 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Foil Tamiyo sold for 140$ on eBay.
