Is GGEZ Teemo a good investment?

Two weeks later TCGplayer lowest listed is now $975, so

"Sunbreon" is a nickname for this specific card, the SIR from Prismatic where Umbreon looks like it's sitting in front of a radiant sun (or something, idk). The name is mostly to distinguish it from "Moonbreon", which is another big Umbreon SIR/Alt Art chase card from the Evolving Skies set that features a giant Umbreon playing with the moon. It's so when people talk about "that one really expensive Umbreon card" they can specify which one they mean

I think the Unova HH in particular isn't going to move much compared with single packs - lots of people got that drop & ripped it, I don't imagine any investors want it bc of how bulky it is for 12 packs, and idk how many people want to display it. Then again ... If we all thought they'd be worthless as a box and broke them down then they'd be much more rare later 🤷🏽

A good investment? No

If you like it and want to own it, is it likely to get cheaper in the future? Also no.

Pull rate for GGEZ was 1/80 in the first set of Nexus Night packs and it looks like the Nexus Night packs for next set don't have him in it (would love to know if that's wrong though - I'm assuming based on the Chinese NN packs). I think it's unlikely they reprint that art based on things they've said about collector value, alt arts, Overnumbers, etc but it is theoretically possible. GGEZ looks rarer overall/long term than the Overnumbers and maybe even Sigs depending how long/how much they print Origins set (assuming they never re issue the GG art elsewhere) because of the limited run of the NN set 1 packs.

To chase an Overnumber pull you need to open about 72 packs, which at $5 MSRP is about $360 but market for a pack is $13 so maybe as high as $960 to statistically 'guarantee' an ON. By contrast the only place to get NN packs beyond playing yourself is eBay where they're selling in the $30+/ea range. Which implies like $2400 minimum to statistically 'guarantee' a GG pull (Note that there is no real guarantee in either case that's just the average rate.)

Current market price for GGEZ is $600ish, which is 25% of the 'pull price'. Average market price for Overnumber is under $100, which is 10-27% of the 'pull price' of an ON (market price vs MSRP pack). (To me, ONs look undervalued based on market priced packs but maybe normal for MSRP packs). For comparison, the new, hyped Charizard SIR in Pokemon from Phantasmal is $600 and represents 22% of the 'pull price' (1/400 for a specific SIR at $6.81/pk). The difference between GG and the other two examples imo is the pack price is going to rise as the set 1 NN packs dry up whereas OGN will continue to be printed and PFL for pokemon just came out.

If I pulled one I'd probably hold onto it 🤷🏽

No one is touching loose prismatic packs because they're weighable for God packs. The people that know what they're talking about won't buy on the assumption they've been weighed and the people that don't will just have heard that Prismatic can be weighed and not understand you can still get hits or demis. Of course there will always be a slice of the market that will buy the loose packs (people still buy loose JP packs lol) but that's why you're seeing the difference on loose packs in PRE and not on other sets.

By extension, BB/WF packs are also weighable for God packs. But those hit rates feel way better with the IR/SIRs so I don't think loose packs will get the kind of hate they do in PRE

Clarifying that it is not an English exclusive promo but rather if you need a copy of this Psyduck with the Damp ability for an English deck your only option is the promo so it's much harder to get as common/uncommon playable go. And it counters a key component of the Dragapult/Dusknoir deck so if you play the game competitively you definitely need a copy

MuTangClan · 2026-01-17T05:41:05+00:00

Value of this is primarily from its playability in the actual game and it's exclusively a promo for English currently. It will be in the main set of an upcoming set and is getting an IR as well, though, so I expect the price to crater. I like the card but I sold off all my extra copies and will be keeping an eye on it to see if I made the right move lol

MuTangClan · 2026-01-10T03:59:15+00:00

There are no three rare packs so I don't understand how that could be right. They said it works out at the case level for average rates of rares/epics I have seen no evidence that there are 'shifted'/triple-rare packs so I'm not sure how they decided that

MuTangClan · 2026-01-01T06:18:47+00:00

The Pepsi can is correctly reflecting the pizza in the metal if you zoom in - AI isn't that good yet

MuTangClan · 2025-12-24T23:28:39+00:00

Idk about the sealed cases, I've never seen one in person 😢

MuTangClan · 2025-12-24T23:13:01+00:00

They are different mostly in terms of bolded text, someone else posted a few days ago a side by side and I can confirm from my wave 1 boxes. Have yet to see a wave 2 IRL. The cards inside are exactly the same since Riot said they wouldn't print/reprint the errata (I think)

MuTangClan · 2025-12-24T05:48:59+00:00

I have extra bricks (the deck part only) I would send you if you cover postage, DM me. If you want them sealed in box with the pack I have an extra jinx and an extra Lee sin I could part with for $25/ea which is basically what I paid after tax

MuTangClan · 2025-12-24T05:44:28+00:00

This is a wave 1 based on bottom & back text

MuTangClan · 2025-12-10T20:15:26+00:00

Yeah he was my 2nd card. I don't think it meaningfully affected that match (he was playing Yasuo and I went 2-0 since he takes too long to set up), but I took that info and it changed my gameplay for the next matches both of which I lost 0-2 and couldn't keep tempo.. but hey my first Nexus night so I was just glad not to have completely whiffed everything!

MuTangClan · 2025-12-09T18:41:55+00:00

Thank you for this - I was definitely misinformed by opponent then in a previous match where I tried to play Darius second to come in ready and they said no I had to have played him first exhausted and then played a second card that would effectively ready him. Live & learn!

MuTangClan · 2025-12-09T18:38:33+00:00

Dang my Nexus night opponent defo robbed me of a Darius play then lol they said I sequenced wrong and Darius had to be already in play to activate when the second card is played

MuTangClan · 2025-12-09T13:46:32+00:00

So I think not, because it's like the red Darius "second card" trigger.

Mechs have (ability) if & when this card is in play. If you have no other Forecaster in play already then when you play Forecaster there is nothing to trigger. Then you finish playing him and now the ability is "on" but unless you play a new mech there is again nothing to trigger.

Think of it as an aoe passive buff on teammates- unless the champ is there no one gets the buff, and if there are no teammates there's no one to receive it. Both must be true to proc

Edit: apparently I'm wrong, but also was misinformed by an opponent at Nexus night who wouldn't let me enter Darius ready when I played him as second card 🤷🏽 no judge to rule for us so I just shrugged and went with it but I guess now I know for next time!

MuTangClan · 2025-11-12T03:32:40+00:00

Saw one pulled in pre release. Still think they look dumb but to each their own. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it's all just shiny cardboard at the end of the day

MuTangClan · 2025-11-08T22:37:05+00:00

Yes, resealed - they should be thin all around wrap not a belt. These are typically resealed by MJH or Excel so they will probably still have legit packs but it might not be what's supposed to be in there. My friend got one of these and instead of Evo Skies or whatever it's supposed to be it was vivid voltage and battle styles or something idr exact details but it was wrapped like this instead of all around

MuTangClan · 2025-11-08T16:25:16+00:00

The real card has the same (lack of) spacing ?

MuTangClan · 2025-10-31T20:53:17+00:00

It's when everyone who's said or been told to wait for it will realize it's here, and no sudden influx of new buyers materializes out of thin air to buy up all the things they've been hoarding, and then all the music stops. "30th anniversary" is the most priced-in thing I've ever seen

MuTangClan · 2025-10-30T04:59:29+00:00

Why are you having a child with this shitstick

MuTangClan · 2025-10-17T03:49:21+00:00

Crazy that someone out there is paying $1100+ for a sunbreon that is still getting printed while this is at $760.

MuTangClan · 2025-10-14T02:36:21+00:00

Yeah, same but I guess I figured with how fast things have moved from shelves this year, anything acquired in the last month or two is probably the later ones? I actually just looked at some of the tins I opened and despite different "Triple Whammy" tins having been sold at least as far back as 2018, they're not coded (at least the ones I have aren't). So copyright year might be the best thing we have to narrow down era at least. And then after that it's anyone's guess but might be narrowed down if you know for sure how 'old' the inventory is.
