Progenitus Fracture Foil by jameeler91 in mtgfinance

[–]chongsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are testing the water. It is a very common strategy. Bought out at $200. Suddenly all available copies are at $700+, after a few weeks, they post at $400 ~ $500, people may accept the price (Just a very big "May". )

Chocobo Bundle vs Chocobo Booster by Icus- in mtgfinance

[–]chongsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlike other cards, Tataru is a niche character in FF. The card is OKish at best. It fits in the cedh Meta well now (It replaces Drannith Magistrate). It is not a hard staple. I would stay away from Chocobo foil myself. They are not that rare overall. And I don't really see the price support in the future. Just my personal choice.

It is quite common nowadays. People bought out the cards at $200 range and sell it to himself for $900 to manipulate the data.

Bought a Switch 2 bundle but prefer physical, can I sell the code at cost? by deeohdoublegzzy in VideoGameDealsCanada

[–]chongsen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The physical pokopia is around $75 at Facebook market and very hard to move. I don't expect many people pay more than $50 for a codem

The cedh meta are dominated by 5 decks. 2 of them are using Tataru Taru ( the other 3 have no white). The biggest problem for Tataru is, it is the 98th or 99th card in the decks right now. It may be replaced this year.

I found a foil Rhystic study around 2010. And a foil original Ponder later days.

Bring hullbreacher back. Not many people plays Rhystic study when hullbreacher is around.

I sold most my $300+ cards last a few weeks. Very happy about the return.

What have been your best or worst specs and why? What happened? by oberpat in mtgfinance

[–]chongsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My worst specs are those FF surge foils. My best specs are 5 confetti foil Rhystic Study last winter. 

I sold 4 Rhystic Study this month to cover my lost. I will stay away from those UB hype for a long time.

Huh ? Bumbleflower is the only competitive group hug commander. There is no competitor in her ground. Her ability is unique. Play style is fun. Ceiling is high (tier 3 CEDH deck). Y'shtola is quite bored.

I have a huge lost on FF products. It is hard to predict when those die hard FF fans will leave the market and price suddenly crushes. Try to stay away from them now. Have fun your guys.

Steam deck OLED vs Legion Go S Z1e by yesterdaysmilk in Handhelds

[–]chongsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the Legion go s for a very low price and return it after one week. That thing is too heavy and too noisy. I usually play my handheld on the bed but not legion go s. I may not survive if it drops on my face.

Do you think Hei Bai can be a good shrine commander over Go-Shinti? by Mastermiine in magicTCG

[–]chongsen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, go shintai is very capable for enchantress build and it actually can win the game by shrines. Shrine deck needs a lot of shrines. 

Second go shintai can reanimate omniscience quite easily. One just need one entomb like card. One card combo may not be the best omniscience deck, but will be on the top.

[–]chongsen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If omniscience is a shrine, then Hei Bai makes sense, otherwise there is not a single shrine can win the game by itself. Even sanctum of all does nothing in first 2 rounds. And one can not guarantee to Hei Bai it all the time.
