This guy trippin’… “Don’t buy this set.” Yet he goes and buys the set himself. Proceeds to pull one of the best cards in the set and has a blast while doing so. This is the problem with some of these guys. It’s do as I say, not as I do. What’s the problem with spending £38 on an ETB in the hopes that you might pull a cool Zard? Not to mention some of the other cool full arts in the set. There’s a difference between buying in bulk and scalping a product hoping to make big returns on it and just buying a couple boxes/packs to enjoy. Be more specific 👍🏻
What point is to be missed, you say its a waste of money and not to get it as your doing a video where you open an etb and start by talking prices of singles and showing the cats in the set saying how there are a nice variety of good ones and saying how you already sold a cpl singles for this and that, right, you seem like the type that tells his community not to get a product while you get it and then turn around and sell the singles at top value, like you already stated you did, so it's a waste of money for ppl to go and get these products for themselves to open and enjoy but not a waste for you to go buy and sell the singles at an inflated price, that is what's called hypocrisy
@@ogreofthefrost it’s a waste of money to open, the “fun tax” of opening up the set doesn’t cover the massive gap between the price of the singles, if you appreciate the cards buy the singles. The “fun tax/gambling tax” of opening the cards just isn’t worth. If the set goes on sell I will 100% be picking it up, will I be opening this stuff for videos also yes, because that’s for content, has a pretty good hit rate and it’s the newest set so unfortunately I feel the need to even though I really dislike it.
@@Urari444 not worth it, but wait has good pull rates, so as opposed to spending $100+ on multiple packs spend $100+ on one or two cards, yeah you are showing your hypocrisy hard,
@@ogreofthefrost this is actually an unhinged take, yes spending whatever amount on a guaranteed card you actually want versus gambling is always correct
@@Urari444 thats your whole take though lol "This set bad because similar name and Charizard" then your praise the promo? When you go over the DA set its like youve never even glanced at the gold cards til then. You say its based but I think your just trying to get them clicks, Just my opinion though and to each their own.
@@TheEscapeRope valid opinion, I should’ve made a much more thought out list why, but I’ll make it here the title it very clickbaity can’t deny that, This set is easily the most lack luster set out of the 3 we’ve gotten out of the sv block. Which is super obviously when you see them reprinting cards are already from 2 sets ago already. This set was comprised of one Japanese set and all the promos they got that we didn’t. There are roughly 4-8 cards that will actually affect the competitive tcg From a “collector view” maybe it’s not bad but I see it from both sides, I think all the nice art like the pidgey line and ninetails either have better art or straight up should’ve been in 151. The singles like most sets are dirt cheap, so yes I think it’s a BIG waste of money to buy sealed product of this set, even including the “fun” tax with opening packs This is all said with no hate at all I truly respect your opinion, and I think I did a horrible job explaining my point and would like to refer people that agree it’s a bad take to this comment, much love and appreciate you sharing your opinion!
@@Urari444 I can agree and disagree with some of those points, but I appreciate the genuine response. I'm sorry if I came off strong at all but can respect those points much more 😎😎
Again completely valid brother, I think I did a poor job representing my actual opinion but I truly do appreciate the feedback hope to see you on some other videos :)
This is no where close too darkness ablaze this ser is way better darkness ablaze you get one charizard and the artworks aren't as good as obsidian flames and obsidian flames has multiple beautiful cards and it's not always about the money and how much you can make urs about having fun and opening cards to pull nice art works and this sets hit rates are very very good dont be telling people not to open a good set this isnt rebal clash or darkness ablaze it's not all about investing and making money there is numerous beautiful art works in this set it's very much so worth it to open
You’re right it isn’t about making money more so, a penny saved is a penny earned, and I may have misspoke this isn’t like darkness ablaze but is the darkness ablaze of the current block (which could change) but you point is SUPER VALID the hit rate seems insane I would recommend but the singles seeing how cheap they are when I don’t get the card I wanted for example a Charizard or whatever it may be to use that same money to guarantee I get it
@@Urari444I understand that and it's a way better set then darkness ablaze tho and yes the hit rates are very good the singles point is a good one but pulling the card gives you more joy
I bought 6 booster sets and pulled charizard illustration edition. The rarest one. Im going to get it graded. What do you think its worth will be in 10-20 years if graded 10?
For and investment perspective its kinda hard to go wrong with a set that has multiple high rare charizards with a nice charmander promo. All for 32$ an etb...
@@Urari444 I've only opened a booster box and an ETB so far. in the box I got two Charizards - the Special Art Rare and the Full art, including the Geeta special art and Orgeta. 12 hits total in one box 👀 I imagine people haven't been that excited about Scarlet and Violet so far and it's the Pokemon company's attempt to boost sales with a easy pull rates set like this. just a thought. It's Always fun to pull a Charizard, but it loses a bit of the magic I must say
@@Dkenur I wonder if the game did damage to it. i have no care for it myself. the starters, main characters and legendary pokemon dont have designs i find appealing.
Great set for the art and terrific grade values on some. Got a booster box today an pulled golden Zard an other chases. Gloom art is insane an a lot of others greats. Stay mad.
man i got this etb the first day it came out and pulled the charizard chase card out the first pack i opened, I've got all 4 of them now and I'm only missing like 6 or 7 cards from this set to complete it but I've spent a lot on this set man, got about 4 regular etbs about 3 PC etbs about 3 booster boxes and quite a few booster bundles a few battle decks also a bunch of 3 pack blisters and a bunch of single packs and still haven't completed the master set. have so many doubles its insane and yeah at this point I'm sick of this set. but evolving skies has to be my fave from the sword and shield.
Before this set, my win rate was maybe 3 out of 10. I bought one ETB and booster box from my friend's shop, set me back $150, and I picked up 2 charizard SIR ($100+ each), 1 double rare EX, and one Gold double rare. Set up my deck, and my win rate went from 3 out of 10 to 7 out of ten. You're out your mind, this is THE BEST FUCKING SET TO EVER RELEASE in pokemon history!
@@Urari444 exactly. That’s why I preordered my UPC for 151 SV in September:D!! And I’m ordering the ETB snorlax box for October! The artwork is waaaayyyy better and I’m a og so kanto region will always be home for me
I don't think this set is too bad. I won 3 booster boxes of this set at an arcade, and I've opened one of the boxes so far. I've pulled 3 of the 4 big Charizard cards in this set except the golden one, and in total that box had $191 usd worth of pulls.
That’s I felt I’m ripping on the set and pull the chase card kind of ruined the point of the video but if you take a look at singles already super cheap
Yeah I definitely would say this set is worse than darkness ablaze. Darkness ablaze was way more relevant in the TCG than this set is (on release) which imo gives it the W.
For collectors this set was nice because there was some nice cards. For flippers this set was horrible as there was nothing major money wise that held value. For game play this set made decks amazing which is the poing of these cards. People who think pokemon cards are a good money maker or expect to get ur money back your nuts.
Everyone shitting on your opinion, meanwhile the single prices are dropping hard like a ROCK. JUST BUY THE SINGLES Too many amateur investor bros and toddlers in this community i stg
@@Urari444 on that note I agree with you. Dont buy over priced products by any means especially knowing that the prices drop after release on just about every set.
This set is horrible and to be honest, It was the first set in the Scarlett & Violet series that I looked forward too…disappointed. Looking forward to 151 now!
Super Valid opinion! The set has good pull rates and some nice special arts really liking the pidgey line but I’m going to stick tl singles for this set!
This set has way more than darkness ablaze. Such a bad comparison. It’s not a top set by any means. Loved watching and seeing other’s opinions. Got a sub from me.
Thanks man and I agree I left a comment under angry squirtle comments giving a more in-depth comment on my actually opinion I think I did a pretty poor job explaining my actual reason
@Urari444 lol you can think whatever you want but to encourage others who don't know any better to think the same is not admirable, especially when you're wrong because you evidently haven't been in the hobby long enough to have an opinion

New to Pokémon.Would love the binder 🎉🎉🎉
Be sure to stay tuned and join the discord I tend to give cards away on most videos
hi, if you had 100$ what would you invest it in, no singles ?
I would probably look into brilliant stars or lost origin
I would join the community discord and ask held he’s very knowledgeable though for sure
what exactly do you mean?

Found your channel dope video🎉
Great set for the art and terrific grade values on some. Got a booster box today an pulled golden Zard an other chases. Gloom art is insane an a lot of others greats.

It’s a good set because of pull rates. But this is a 8 out of ten set. But that’s just my opinion
That’s a fair point, I agree the hit rare does seem pretty freaking good
The charizards will be worth in 10 years and a few others will too , regardless of what you think you know
Comparing this to darkness ablaze is crazy.
Oh no I bought darkness ablaze and now I find out :(

isn't that every booster box set ever since beginning of time? hahaha
@@fluffy91 not necessarily some box’s like PAL has tons of playable stuff and some nice hitters too
@@fluffy91 more like “every modern zard set” lol.

is it worth keeping sealed???
sealed always grows

@@Urari444 will do, thanks for this info
I was feeling like this when I got a booster box and got some hits but not that charizard. Didn’t even make back what I spent.
Exactly I bet you could’ve bought the hits you got for like 3/4 of the booster
Which sucks

Nice pulls

What you meant to say is if youre only in the hobby for money don't buy it. True fans like that cards are cheap or like to get hits.
