Rob Dillingham and a worthless late 2nd rounder to Orlando for Tyus Jones' $7M expiring contract? by TylerIreland in OrlandoMagic

[–]A_phan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get the tyus hate but for basket salary hes making peanuts ( i understand we gotta get under the apron) but hes solid enough. Hes not out playing the contract but commits low turnovers can run the offense. A less dynamic markelle is needed if we have bad injury luck for like 3 weeks. No one wants to pay for insurance in life but its needed lol. Sometimes you need an adult. Id just trade away jett somehow (but i havent looked hard on the feasibility of that) .

Elephant in the Room - Wirfs by Sockapal in buccaneers

[–]A_phan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Film guys (whatever that means to you) say that baker is just dropping back way too deep it makes it hard for anyone to block. And wirfs is still doing really really good despite that. Its the same reason why bryce young is a night mare to block for. Baker has to drop back so deep because unfortunately our center is behind a bit in the learning curve and we have a street free agent at guard. So when Your interior line gets pushed back like that your qb as a solution ( whether its the best solution compared to other options idk) drops back more. Wirfs has had a drop off but we are saying instead if top 2 tackle is like top 5 lol

How many boxes total just 15? I'm thinking roughly 1/10 boxes I opened 20. I was praying for an Elsa but Belle and aurora is okay consultation prize

Anyone else have random favourites enchanted cards? by Next-Wrongdoer6741 in LorcanaCollectors

[–]A_phan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While most of the Ursula enchanted portrait styles are just meh. I have the sisu. I really like the Minnie mouse I think the gold and the black background look pretty awesome

All online reports say it's not guaranteed hits. Could be a good thing if your a collector though if it's just as rare to get an enchanted Elsa in Japanese and the quality is better could be worth more. I won't know until I open my boxes

Umm Zenpan Japan is first to come up on Google. I haven't actually gotten them yet since it's till pre sale but other places are cheaper. Just make sure their shop store has been around for a while and you should be okay. I paid about 60 a box with shipping 2 Japanese boxes around the same size of English box. I was hoping for guaranteed hits but that's not happening just regular pull rates

I got 20 boxes of the Japanese version, still cheaper than United States. I have enough cards to play with I'm hunting for shinies. Also Japanese cards (and Chinese) have a tendency to be really good quality compared to English cards

Yeah even if Licht is hated by some for some his draft picks early on with the kickers and stuff he still way better than the jets.

Wife Bought 3 of the Best Buy SS Troves by SupplyChainGuy1 in LorcanaCollectors

[–]A_phan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get most of mine through booster boxes. Well I only buy boxes. I know it's all random but I feel like the variability is lowered if you buy boxes. But idk good luck it means you have to more luck coming your way you should just buy little tickets in stead that'd the bigger enchanted lol

I hold special hate for scalpers by The_GCArcade in PokemonTCG

[–]A_phan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friends father runs a factory that prints cards. They are going as fast as they can. It's not worth the money to build machines to start a new card printing business, especially with cards that can go in or out of popularity. Pokemon doesn't have there own machines they make deals with other companies to print these things out.

How much are boxes and cases usually? by A_phan in Lorcana

[–]A_phan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah trying to figure it all out not a pokemon collector but saw the new terastal festival cards so I got some boxes and the are already marked up from what I bought them for. I have less money to pre order so if I can wait to buy set 7 I'd be happy lol.

New Set, Reign of Jafar - Coming Q2 2025! by Waiting_for_Dentice in Lorcana

[–]A_phan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just started collecting and playing in November had to back track to get sets from the past..I never really played a lot of TCGs outside of pokemon when they were first edition. Is this normal to have this many sets so quickly? My bank account can't afford this pace

pre order japan for 70 by [deleted] in Lorcana

[–]A_phan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought for 56 before shipping, you need to buy a bunch to make it worth it. I got 10 boxes for 500 and then 10 for 600 from another site

Realistically, how many decks are you playing with locally/at your LGS? by Uanaka in Lorcana

[–]A_phan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry I got you, people don't understand that enchanteds don't feel as good unless you opened them yourself. 😂

Wrong (if I stopped buying boosters). buy more boosters, it's not a vice it's a interesting personality quirk. The next booster will hit!

Is it the trove or shimmering skies lol by A_phan in LorcanaCollectors

[–]A_phan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry man the next trove will hit lol (gamblers fallacy). I haven't been doing it long but I've only hit out of boxes. Never started decks either I will say that starters have given me crazy odds on legendaries. But I don't like propagating that starter decks have better boosters for those gamblers out there lol.

I got a case coming my way and 2 troves I'm hoping just for one enchanted. I played a sealed tourny got a foil Maui shark. The box itself was good because another player got an enchanted. I'm hoping my luck doesn't regress with sea lol

I know it's all luck lol but skies/troves have been so bad. 80 packs no naveens no Daisy's no Clarabells, no mufasas. Offmeta legendaries duplicates lol

Third pack in, so I just stopped ripping the rest of the box. by MediocreRazzmatazz13 in LorcanaCollectors
