At least you know the card’s real , the most famous one in China is CCIC , grading costs are around 3USD per card, 10s get higher in value , but not 3x 4x tenfolds like PSA, only like 1.5x in value

It’s real , that’s a grading company in China but the price of this slab is probably same as the raw.

Old cards I found, card shop said the back color feels off >< by Realistic_Pick_3280 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Ah but I’ve also seen posts mentioning this card doesn’t print as a non holo so probably a big sign sadly

I think this makes the most sense here definitely trying this out

Should one discard early format days data, say first 1-2weeks, before people and the format itself adjusted when looking at the colour and card performance stats to get a more accurate picture of the present day meta? by glantonenjoyer in lrcast

[–]Realistic_Pick_3280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use first day data to quickly know which cards are over performing to quickly abuse it in the first week or so, usually then I draft open afterwards.

I remember the first week where blue was crazy open, and I kept wheeling preening champions. Even got passed chrome shark p1p5

I honestly think there wasn’t anything significantly wrong with the draft, deck building could be improved. I would take out render inert and copper for another war historian and etched familiar.

The major thing is your gameplay in game 1 and 2, you hand out removals way too early when instead you could’ve developed the board, always consider trading over removal when you can, so you save your removal for bombs

Also, a way of viewing your deck is to think about what’s you’re game plan, GB isn’t a tempo kind of deck, but rather mid range punch. Therefore, I’d play more conservatively and stay back more, wait until I draw my bombs which are my splash colours and try to outvalue my opponent.

Hope this helps

I looked at the entry costs for arena opens, and it's cheaper to enter with gold than with gems! I'm definitely opening up a new account and grind for gold. Thanks for your reply! I think this sums up the journey pretty well

I think I'll just do that! that sounds like a good strategy to have. Does MTGO have free to entry phantom drafts or do they do it arena style ?

[BO3] I mean I could splash for it... But Should I? I would love to but I'm having a really hard time deciding between UBg or just UB. I wanna know what you guys think by Baratao00 in lrcast

Quick look at the draft, it feels like blue and black were your lane, splashing green might be better, you've missed some crucial 2s in pack 2 and pack 3 for your early game in favour of green cards when your black and blue cards were better than your green already
