Personally I feel shelling out that amount needs to come with some level of rarity, conditional or others, but as I collect Japanese I appreciate theres far less $1k set cards than in English which may sway me
I spent that time crushing draft tournaments and diving deep into the sets intersecting mechanics
The death trigger makes this useful as anti-aggro in draft, but youll not find this in a serious constructed deck
Selling in the hype window of a new release can mean big gains
However, not every card can be as sought-after as Charizard and, with 230 cards to keep track of, some are bound to be more valuable than others
This Double Rare doesn't break the bank, but it represents a significant jump in price from the prior entry, although it's not hard to eclipse a card that's under 25 cents
