You should also avoid loose sealed because the boxes are semi-mappable in the regular frame Legendary slot. Beyond the 1Ks you mention the big news recently on the competitive end was the 5K in Orlando which had a 1st place Vader control build with playsets of those Avengers and Vigilances. Those jumped a fair bit pretty much directly after that deck placed so highly. I do agree with Matt that Vaders have likely dipped some after these Vader-less (unit) decks have been placing so highly. Prior to that there were even top 8s that were all Boba-Green decks. Now that other decks are proven in the meta it means you don't HAVE to have them to compete at a high level whereas most people didn't think that was the case before.

Pullrates of Cards even Rare are hard so even with a insane printrun there would not be enough to fill players best decks. It will be better with more Sets and Variants… Even for stores its difficult to fill up with Singles.

There being four variants of cards is interesting from a collecting side but keeping stock of essentially 900 different cards across the four variants and showcases, just for set 1, is going to be an interesting challenge for store to keep things in stock.

Foils in this game curl too much for my taste. I will keep a few foils I think look cool and will gladly trade the rest. The normal hyperspace cards is what I think I will chase.

I agree in the foils. They’re super bendy. Usually it takes a few years for the bends to become so prominent but that does not seem to be the case

Long story short. Bought a box at msrp to open for fun after watching these videos. Got some nice pulls. Dog destroys said nice pulls including hyperspace foil Mace. Very sad, mad at dog. Decide to buy $200 sealed booster despite wise advice not to. Open box. Pull Force Lightening, Foil Force Lightening, Hyperspace Force Lightening, Luke Skywalker, and Showcase Palpatine. Sad no longer, dog forgiven...

@@Frank-ro5bp Destiny was interesting. It was like a rules engine playground. And if it were an lcg where you buy packs and have everything you need to build and brew decks then fine. But as a TCG? I could open a whole box and not be able to put a deck together. Drafting was extremely flawed. The hero/villain split felt like you were collecting two separate games. And you had to buy tons of starter decks just to get second copies of good dice. You had devs changing fundamental rules to combat unintended combos. Oh and Z E R O forethought into storage of the friggin dice! And I actually LIKED THE GAME! I'm going easy on it here. SWU might not be as unique but it's 30x more functional in every aspect.

I think there’s a difference between buying cards for you and friends to play with or collect and buying out every store in the area with the intent of flipping it on eBay. To each their own, I think long term success of the game is having widely available product. You might make a few bucks short term but go talk to the Lorcana scalpers that ended up with way too much product and no market for it.
