8:30 The artwork seen on the Absorption card is an older painting by Boris Vallejo, called "Vampire’s Kiss". Before its appearance in the Hyborian Gates game, it was used as the cover artwork for the first THUNDERDOME Hardcore CD in 1993.
Super excited that you opened up some Hyborian Gates! Didn't realize it was so cheap, I'll have to pick some up. If you like this art, take a look at Guardians as well.
Magic use to feel like one of those generic card games. With no numbers or limited edition cards. I had marvel cards and basketball. Then I had magic and I think Dungeon and dragons cards and was thinking back then no foils WTF! Lol But I held onto my Marvel and a lot of my magic cards. I did get rid of a bunch of Alfa and Beta 😭
This and the guardians are outstanding artwork and concept just a little too complicated on game play. PS the instrument is a french horn. A sousaphone is a marching tuba and is much larger
I have these exact starter decks, amazing art. They should invested in foils.
I love how random and insane this games art is
It's like they threw the fantasy section of a used bookstore into a wood chipper
Cool and weird art!! Like a lot this kind of stuff, thanks
That art is just crazy, thnx for sharing this Tragic. You’re right about Hyborian, I believe they refer to it as the “Hyborian age”

This was the first CCG I ever played. I used to collect the Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell art cards.
I have a few of these packs. Never had the chance to play it, but god I love the art.
That dolphin card is the same art as an ecco the dolphin video game cover. Tides of time I believe. Lol
And I believe I've seen 8:53 on the cover of a BattleTech novel.

I ordered some Guardians packs to check out. Pretty soon I'll have to change the channel name!

4:22 how did it not succeed????
Think the problem with this game was they forget the real point, IT'S ABOUT THE CONES
Any chance we could get the link to the eBay seller I would love to buy a booster Box and a couple of starter decks
I just ordered the box Tragic is opening off Amazon for 13 dollars.
