Saw a Shaddoll structure deck and I had to buy. Top 3 favorite archetype. Got 3 and some booster packs I am waiting to open. Never knew how expensive some cards are, some cards in the packs I bought are worth over 500 which is crazy for some cardboard. But fuck this deck has some busted ass cards. Are Shaddoll card sleeves a thing lol.

I haven't played IRL in years, but I remember Shaddolls being fun to use from trying them in the video games. No idea if they're viable in the current meta though.

Last time I played a real life duel was like 3 or 4 years ago. My friend and I went to Target and he bought a Kaiba structure deck (I think it was Kaiba) and I bought one of those 50 random card things Target has. I still crushed him in like 5 straight duels lol. I know the meta is crazy these days so there cards are probably no longer relevant, but Shaddolls are my personal favorites with Crystal Beasts and Venoms so i had to buy lol.

Shaddolls will never be not rogue I think, but I don't think you play pure Shaddolls if you want to beat some of the meta decks. I admit I've not dueled in a long time but I still follow conversations and Shaddolls are still playable

Also is there any trick I should know about when opening? I know with Pokmon cards you put the last three cards in front so you get the rare last.

When you open the pack at the top, take a big sniff of the cards first before you take em out

i was into them with a few friends back in 2017 to 2018 have no idea how the game is now i was running a blue eyes deck i spent well over a $1000 at the time collecting all the cards for it.

i dont think boosters come in any order but for a guaranteed card people use to just buy a box set which contains dozens of boosters but they were pricey.

i only play the video games, not very often, and not many of the recent ones, 2011 is the most recent one Ive played. Monarchs is my favourite playstyle. Gaining advantage, summoning quick tribute fodder, and activating powerful effects off tribute monsters is very satisfying. I heard they now have specific archetype support cards and stuff. In 2011 its just generic cards with effects that lend themselves well to the playstyle

Monarchs basically got a bunch of really good spells/traps that give you tributes and an upgraded form of all the monarchs. They kept their style but became more consistent and explosive without having to rely on any other summoning methods. I believe they literally only have effect monsters, no xyz/synchros etc. So they work well with cards that try to lock out extra decks.

Just don't use Seal of Orichalcos. That card is just ass

Also, I forgot to say but there are so many varieties of booster packs nowadays that it's hard to tell you what to do to get the rare in the back. Heck, there are some packs where all the cards are rares I think lol

my buddy ran that monarch archetype it was powerful. you could also tribute your opponents cards instead of your own. once that deck got going youd be able to lock out your opponent from special summoning and using effects. one of the best lock down decks at the time i was playing.

Junk DoppelWarrior+ Calculator deck was fun af too. As well as HeroCity decks with the option to go into Omni fusions, but not having that as the sole win condition. Man WC2011 was fun.

what's the point of buying cards now to play? won't be able to play for a while at tournaments.

Sets continue to be released. Yugioh has some tele-duel thing and Magic has MTG arena and online.

Honestly, outside of buying singles, I only really go for the $20-30 tins or duel boxes (duel power, duel overload, duel devestator, etc). Duel Overload especially has pretty good value. Nothing $100+ but a good 5+ cards that are like...$20 each

Yeah because it comes with something called Collector's rares which are apparently $100-200 versions of the cards?

I bought a buncha singles off of that set to tune up my Lightsworn Chaos :d

i pulled a chaos emperor dragon collector's rare and bought a BLS collector's rare just to hold for a while

also bought two BLAR boxes for next week - hoping to pull ten thousand dragon
I'd say most post-5D's legacy cards haven't really seen that big boost in price over long years. Like when they had 1st edition ghost rares and ulti rares of staples in the 5D's sets, they've slowly gained price over the years. Obviously most of the big cards from the DM era are also seeing very slight growths.

But post-5D's era key cards have either plummeted in price and are easy to obtain with ppl realizing it's not going anywhere or only rise in price due to sudden competitive tech use and low supply.

yeah i wanted those collector's rares because i wanted them personally too

they're pretty cool and i fucking love CED and BLS...

the other thing is toon chaos seems to be in limited supply and the pull ratios for the good CRs are low
Yeah those are great reasons to buy them. I still have my 1st edition ghost rare Odin, Father of the Aesir that I pulled off the first random pack I bought in ages that got me back into the game. It's honestly slightly bent and worth basically nothing XD
