I live in Japan, and started going to local events with a friend. Its really cool to see the wide range of ppl who play One Piece here. The last event I went to, there was a guy in his 40s who joined, and a mom and her 12 year old son playing together as well.
I played yu gi oh like almost 2 decades ago and I can't keep up with it. I never got into pokemon. My friend and I came across one piece tcg and we fell in love. We've opened almost over a dozen booster boxes and getting into the game as well has been so fun for us. I really hope prices stay like this so more people can get in.
Btw another big reason to get into the game is the op09 set, which is the 2nd anniversary set with all the manga posters and manga and cards around the Yonko
I just started playing yesterday. I bought my first packs a week ago, and I bought my first starter deck (ST14) and a Double Pack two days ago. I pulled an SP OP02-013 Ace from the double pack!!! I've never been more hyped to get into a TCG, the art is amazing, the pricing is great, the feeling of opening packs is awesome due to this, the community is friendly and helpful, and most importantly, the game is really fun to play! Every color feels like it can work, there's a lot of viable leaders with different playstyles, the mixed color leaders allow for creative deck building, and every set brings something new and exciting to the game from what I've seen!
I just collect cheap Luffy cards. Some Luffy cards are just around $0.2, which makes it a thrilling hobby for someone like me who doesn't have a lot of money.
I agree with you and I want this game to keep growing and have longevity. But I will say like it’s all ready there man, the popularity that is. I struggle to find any one piece boxes or packs or anything and I’ll drive to two different states trying to find anything but every single store I go too always says the same thing. The second the get product it’s gone.
Im a Yu-Gi-Oh competitor and I'm going to be real with you, it may not be as big as Yu-Gi-Oh but its in a better state and has better support for players and its way more approachable. It could get there. Yu-Gi-Oh is not in a good spot as a competitor. But i love the game and i love optcg as well. Its great
imo, I'm enjoying the card game the most because there's always a chance to interact. I've played yugioh competitively and commander magic casually with friends. in magic, you have situations where you miss land drops and you're just waiting to draw a land just to play the game. there are also moments where people just get infinite mana or have infinite combos. in yugioh, there are times you are forced to break a board of negates which means running multiple board breakers. that also means drawing into multiple board breakers and not having enough of your deck engine to start even after breaking a one card combo board. i feel like one piece is designed to mitigate some of these things to make a more fair game. one of my friends just got into the game a week ago after buying my RP Luffy deck and upgrading it. now he's doing well with it AND IT'S ONLY BEEN A WEEK. i can't wait to see what other deck he's going to research and come up with after this. the game is also very easy get into. there aren't any complicated interactions between cards like some other card games.
I think big emphasis should be put on the fact that as far as English Card games, this is the best 1v1 game currently going. MTG Commander is probably going to be king forever, but the game as it is right now can't be beat when you want to play competitive card games. I'm not even a huge One Piece guy, but I love card games and this one has me hooked.
Came from Yu-Gi-Oh to this because my son loved the anime an it was something we could do together an now we have dropped thousands on this card game an go to tournaments twice a week.
To be fair a lot of people are still finding out there is a card game lol my brother and friend got me into anime in general but one piece was the main thing they told me to start with. I binged the entire show for 2 months then said “it would be dope if there was a card game.” Turns out…there is. January I started playing and I’m obsessed.
coming from Magic which has entrenched issues from being one of the first successful TCGs, I have a lot I really like about the design of the game itself. I tried the game because of a lot of the reasons you mentioned in this video, but I think it's the real deal because of how rewarding it is to play at both a beginner and competitive level
I love your videos so much, this was super insightful! I’m very new to the optcg, it’s the first trading card game I’ve ever tried to get into, and I am struggling a little but I’m having a lot of fun figuring it out and learning how things will develop for it in the future! : D
I started collecting cards 2 weeks ago to date IV opened 25 boosters and 6 starter decks as a massive one piece fan for years it even being the reason I'm alive hahahahah I started off just wanting to collect cards 😂 but now I find myself playing against myself with 2 of the now 5 decks I have I feel totally addicted and I can't stop buying more cards ahhaaha
FMA: Brotherhood did not condensed the first FMA series. FMA strayed away from the manga. It changes many things. FMA: Brotherhood is the loyal adaptation of the manga. I don't know how it relates to the upcoming The One Piece series...
I think what he meant by the FMA: Brotherhood example is that, just like FMA Brotherhood the new one piece Anime is going to be a remastered version of the show visually, just how the original FMA was out dated graphically. In the beginning of the original One Piece show the build up is quite slow also it's not visually appealing to younger audiences as the anime itself is old, which is already a deterrent to younger anime viewers. fact of the matter is FMA would have never grown or become as popular as it is today without releasing FMA: Brotherhood, because it gives the opportunity for new viewers to jump in and follow along from the beginning, also giving the OG's a chance to start the experience all over again, which I'm sure people are going to love.
I got most of the pieces through a good series of booster pulls, and grabbed the rest as singles and yeah, £60 seems about right. the 4 cost Raiju is the most expensive card and that's only £5.
new player here and also 40. So I think your theory holds water. I've been hearing more and more good things about the tcg, it already survived the two year curse, so I bought in. I'd forgotten the intense dopamine hit that booster pack based games gives you, I haven't played anything other than Arkham Horror and Netrunner for years. From my perspective the OPTCG is a fixed yugioh. I really like the don system, I really like the way that rares and alts are handled (for the most part), overall I'm super excited to get more heavily into the game. tldr: I think you're entirely correct in your assessment
I don’t like anime and I don’t even watch the show. But this game absolutely fucks I love it! just started playing a month ago. And if I even got into it, It’s gonna pop off. Invest in this!
@@CancelledExplorer One Piece TCG was the most popular and most played at regionals here in the UK having only been released for 7months at the time, *followed by* Pokemon then Digimon then DBZ, which have been around for a lot lot longer.. 1k players is alot e.g this video has 19k views and less then 600people liked.. so yeah, I would say its already massive
I get the same feeling about this game that I got right before League of Legends took off. There’s a perfect storm brewing, as shown by all the examples and evidence you brought up in your video.
The game has already popped off. There's already tons of content being made about the tcg and lots of people buying cards. But you are right an older audience will have more disposable income to spend on this game. With not only the remake but the continuing live action series I think it's going to continue to grow. And being a former Yugioh player it was nice to play a new and slower game. Yugioh has become way too fast to the point where I personally think it's unplayable. I don't want to sit there watch my opponent make a board full of negates and I basically can't play.
I just got into One Piece TCG around 3 weeks ago. I was originally a Yugioh player but, jumped ship after how bad Konami mis-mananged the game. Yugioh just had a horrible banlist a few days ago that left the game in a horrible state🤮 🐴 It would not suprise me to see a lot of yugioh converts in the next few months
lmao I met a guy at my OnePiece locals last night and they cited both the guy that replied to you and what you were saying as the reasons he quit yugioh for onepiece
The one piece remake is going to be insane for the IP. I don’t play the TCG yet but I have some bad ass cards. I’m just hoping my cards don’t go down in value
another benefit of the increased age range is you're less likely to meet young players who haven't socially developed so you avoid more of those awkward/uncomfortable situations....
I think the card game is gonna be big and the anime will certainly have a huge fanbase but everyone's attentiom span only lasts so long. One piece is also heading towards its endgame, its at its peak. Itll definitely have the status like DBZ, as it always has had, but nothing lasts forever.
Card games are expensive, no person looking to play competitive buys a cheap pack and sits with it, so many people spend thousands on these hobbies so expect the price to be dumb. I would love for this to be in a progressive video game format.
magic the gathering has finally kicked me to the side on the piss poor management and got me into playing one piece. most lgs around me dropped modern legacy pioneer formats i was playing and has one piece events now that pop with way more people we had that was playing magic
@@YGO_Renaissance its not just their focus on commander that killed it for me its also the constant set after set price increase for nothing and the lousy secondary market. before the ban announcement i could of gotten myself a playset of the one ring for around 280 dollars now after the announcement its over 400 dollars. if i can make a whole competitive deck with one piece for the same price as 4 cards i need for modern i'd rather play one piece then
Not around here it isn’t. Not in Connecticut….No one plays it, and no stores even can carry inventory because they can’t get much product and no one cares about locals. So I’ll believe it when I see it. It’s a shame, because I’m also a big fan of one piece, my daughter and I love the game but all I can play on is a simulator, no local support here.
It might get bigger than yugioh, I feel like it’s slowly dying because of terrible products from Konami. Me and a lot of people switched over to one piece because local sizes aren’t that big anymore. One piece or other games are taking over
You forgot reason 6, the yugioh ban list sucks. Obviously this is a joke, but recently in the yu-gi-oh community we got a ban list that was really bad and doesn't really solve the overarching problem that plagues the game right now. This has lead to some people joking about quitting yugioh and switching over to one piece. That and also people who are probably serious about it. The game was in a really bad state, and not much has changed. Best case secenario is that the game is alright for roughly 6 weeks until Rage of the Abyss and then it goes back to being trash.
This game is def going to get more popular but, since it's tied to an IP it has a finite shelf life. It is eventually just going to die. I already went through this with Naruto. The game is definitely going to last way more (2-3 years) but there is only so many luffys you can print.
Are you not seeing how everything is the one piece IP is expanding in every avenue Anime is now only converting one chapter per episode that is already more than 3 years
@@nieco8746 That would make sense if the expansions were in order, but we already got egg-head so the game is up to date with the manga. Tcg don't adapt episodes per se in booster themes, they adapt arks or specific factions. The community really enjoys the game and I personally think is fun so I hope it's stays healthy ( i dont play but i do watch). That doesn't mean we can't exhort people to be cautious with investing in the game when it's pretty much proven this is not a forever game.
i feel like its ok, its been like 9 collections and we still dont have usopp, brook, franky and other strawhat leaders, even though we may have like 10 luffys, they have a lot of characters to explore
This game is not affordable by any means. Making a top tier deck costs hundreds of dollars and you will also need to acquire 4 copies for a playset. Reprints are now on the horizon after the first year of this game launching which should bring prices down for certain cards. Collecting wise is even more crazy with AA's/Mangas. I'm just on my way to collecting the first set of Mangas before the release of the rerpints and OP08 and future sets. The Mangas alone take too many resources to acquire and if you try to rip them from cases or boxes with the low ratios you spend way too much money. Luckily the first case I did buy ended up giving me a ton of AA's/SP's to have decent trade value for most of the Mangas. Even still it takes way too much to even trade for cards because most card shops won't sell singles or have the ones you are looking for specifically for decks. Overall the game is fresh, it's new and easy to play. I do enjoy playing the game and i love the yellow mechanic for the game. The game is very easy to learn for beginner players as well but trying to scrap up a competitive deck for a beginner is difficult.
"Game isn't affordable" > Is collecting every Manga card?? > Upset that a top-tier deck that uses cards from the past 7 sets + starter decks costs around 2 booster boxes to build with singles C'mon now.
@@batsutcg collecting the higher end cards in this game in general isn't at all budget or affordable. Singles again are hard to come by when most Trading Card Shops are relying on selling sealed and letting the customers rip them for the singles for trade-ins. I hear a lot of players complaining playing meta decks like Enel because they gotta pay $50 for a playset of Katakuris. Not everyone is willing to spend the money. The ones that are definitely have the sustainable income to do so. Until more reprints happen for this game, the more prices will spike for upcoming set and support for upcoming decks or upgrades to older strategies. The Mangas for this game are way overpriced for the collecting aspect. I've had my fair share of buying some product and trading it away to acquire them and I have gotten lucky to pull 2. With them being the most sought for chase cards in each set it makes sense why Bandai are creating crappy pull ratios to increase more demand for certain sets over others. Scalpers at local Walmarts, Targets, etc create an even bigger issue with trying to get anything and trying to resell the product for even more for what they paid for. So again yes this game as of now isn't affordable with very high demand on products but very low resources to acquire cards needed for decks or for the collection aspect.
Isn’t it already top 5 card games ? Ur talking about it surpassing the giants… 🥇 pokemon 🥈 yugioh 🥉 duel masters 4th one piece 5th magic the gathering For the recent sales these are the top dogs and u want it to grow more ? Idk bro maybe it surpasses duel masters but not yugioh or Pokémon and some ppl say db new tcg will surpass it
Are you talking solely about Japan? Cause duel masters is effectively dead in the west unfortunately. I think it would go Magic > Pokemon > Yugioh > FaB > Lorcana in Eu / NA / Oce
IT DOES NOT DESERVE IT BANDAI BROUGHT OUT BATTLE SPIRITS SAGA A WAY BETTER GAME AND THEN TOOK EVERYTHING AND GAVE IT TO ONE PIECE A WORSE GAME THAT ONLY SURVIVES OFF ITS IP
Hmm. Battle spirits saga must be one hell of a game, cause I've played quite a few in my time and One Piece is my all time top of the list from a mechanics standpoint. Only others that come close IMO are Pokemon and the now defunct "The Spoils."
One piece TCG is trash and derivative, if you don't think so prove it by making a video comparing its mechanics its stole from other games @kekfilaTCG

This game is def going to get more popular but, since it's tied to an IP it has a finite shelf life. It is eventually just going to die. I already went through this with Naruto. The game is definitely going to last way more (2-3 years) but there is only so many luffys you can print.
love the "every leader series"

Are you not seeing how everything is the one piece IP is expanding in every avenue
Anime is now only converting one chapter per episode that is already more than 3 years
@@nieco8746 That would make sense if the expansions were in order, but we already got egg-head so the game is up to date with the manga. Tcg don't adapt episodes per se in booster themes, they adapt arks or specific factions. The community really enjoys the game and I personally think is fun so I hope it's stays healthy ( i dont play but i do watch). That doesn't mean we can't exhort people to be cautious with investing in the game when it's pretty much proven this is not a forever game.
i feel like its ok, its been like 9 collections and we still dont have usopp, brook, franky and other strawhat leaders, even though we may have like 10 luffys, they have a lot of characters to explore
This game is not affordable by any means. Making a top tier deck costs hundreds of dollars and you will also need to acquire 4 copies for a playset. Reprints are now on the horizon after the first year of this game launching which should bring prices down for certain cards.
Collecting wise is even more crazy with AA's/Mangas. I'm just on my way to collecting the first set of Mangas before the release of the rerpints and OP08 and future sets. The Mangas alone take too many resources to acquire and if you try to rip them from cases or boxes with the low ratios you spend way too much money.
Luckily the first case I did buy ended up giving me a ton of AA's/SP's to have decent trade value for most of the Mangas. Even still it takes way too much to even trade for cards because most card shops won't sell singles or have the ones you are looking for specifically for decks.
Overall the game is fresh, it's new and easy to play. I do enjoy playing the game and i love the yellow mechanic for the game. The game is very easy to learn for beginner players as well but trying to scrap up a competitive deck for a beginner is difficult.
i built reiju for 60 dollars. reiju is a top tier deck.
Nami decks are under $50
wtf is this comment? You want to see decks you can’t afford? Go play yugioh because it just sounds like you are bitching over nothing rn
"Game isn't affordable"
> Is collecting every Manga card??
> Upset that a top-tier deck that uses cards from the past 7 sets + starter decks costs around 2 booster boxes to build with singles
C'mon now.
@@batsutcg collecting the higher end cards in this game in general isn't at all budget or affordable.
Singles again are hard to come by when most Trading Card Shops are relying on selling sealed and letting the customers rip them for the singles for trade-ins. I hear a lot of players complaining playing meta decks like Enel because they gotta pay $50 for a playset of Katakuris.
Not everyone is willing to spend the money. The ones that are definitely have the sustainable income to do so. Until more reprints happen for this game, the more prices will spike for upcoming set and support for upcoming decks or upgrades to older strategies.
The Mangas for this game are way overpriced for the collecting aspect. I've had my fair share of buying some product and trading it away to acquire them and I have gotten lucky to pull 2. With them being the most sought for chase cards in each set it makes sense why Bandai are creating crappy pull ratios to increase more demand for certain sets over others. Scalpers at local Walmarts, Targets, etc create an even bigger issue with trying to get anything and trying to resell the product for even more for what they paid for.
So again yes this game as of now isn't affordable with very high demand on products but very low resources to acquire cards needed for decks or for the collection aspect.
make it available more in ENGLISH PRINT
Isn’t it already top 5 card games ? Ur talking about it surpassing the giants…
🥇 pokemon
🥈 yugioh
🥉 duel masters
4th one piece
5th magic the gathering
For the recent sales these are the top dogs and u want it to grow more ? Idk bro maybe it surpasses duel masters but not yugioh or Pokémon and some ppl say db new tcg will surpass it
Are you talking solely about Japan? Cause duel masters is effectively dead in the west unfortunately.
I think it would go Magic > Pokemon > Yugioh > FaB > Lorcana in Eu / NA / Oce
What in the world is duel masters?
Sorry what is that list?
Here's the correct list
1. Pkmn
2. MtG
3. FAB
4. Yugioh
5. OP.
I think OP can beat yugioh. Not Pokémon tho
100000000%
Let’s goooooo
🤡🗿= one piece
You're a little late to the party big dawg the game has been growing with each set
IT DOES NOT DESERVE IT BANDAI BROUGHT OUT BATTLE SPIRITS SAGA A WAY BETTER GAME AND THEN TOOK EVERYTHING AND GAVE IT TO ONE PIECE A WORSE GAME THAT ONLY SURVIVES OFF ITS IP
Hmm. Battle spirits saga must be one hell of a game, cause I've played quite a few in my time and One Piece is my all time top of the list from a mechanics standpoint. Only others that come close IMO are Pokemon and the now defunct "The Spoils."
Try battle spirits saga for yourself and get back to me@beanstheclown
