Konami just lately launched the greatest product for the Yu-Gi-Oh! buying and selling card sport in years if not ever. The twenty fifth Anniversary Rarity Collection has prompted so much of buzz in the Yu-Gi-Oh! group and rightly so. The set is a mere reprint set, however Konami really appears to have gone above and past on this one. First, there are solely 79 playing cards and so they’re nearly all wanted playing cards together with highly effective staples like Lightning Storm, Forbidden Droplet, and Dark Ruler No More. Second, every card is accessible in every of the SEVEN rarities! That brings us to the third level in its favor: two rarities had been lastly introduced from the OCG to the TCG! The full checklist of rarities embody Super Rare, Ultra Rare, Secret Rare, Platinum Secret Rare, Quarter Century Secret Rare, Prismatic Collector’s Rare (model new to TCG), and Prismatic Ultimate Rare (model new to the TCG)! I actually love these new rarities. They look beautiful in particular person and I feel the Prismatic Collector’s Rare may be my new favourite rarity in the sport. I haven’t even talked about how the Rarity Collection presents alternate paintings variations for Knightmare Unicorn and Eldlich, the Golden Lord.
The Rarity Collection has one thing for everybody and that’s why everybody is loving it. It has new rarities and alternate artwork of a pair playing cards for collectors. Competitive gamers can seize mandatory playing cards for a bit cheaper and even bling out their decks extra. Likewise, the reprints make it simpler and cheaper for informal duelists to deliver their decks to the subsequent degree.
Dear Konami, please make this an annual factor. I don’t care if this replaces the tins or the tins turn out to be rarity collections or perhaps we hold each merchandise separate. Please launch a rarity assortment yearly. You’ll wish to change up the card lists to incorporate any new highly effective staples and make issues completely different, however having a comparatively small card checklist the place every card is accessible in every rarity is a significant win. Plus, all the shininess is at all times a pull. Yu-Gi-Oh! duelists love shiny cardboard! Shiny equals good, proper?
Below you possibly can take a look at a video the place I get to open a full field of 24 packs that Konami was sort sufficient to ship out to me. I’m nonetheless unconvinced that the digicam does justice to something shinier than a Secret Rare, however I promise that the luxurious rarities are beautiful in particular person. Let me know in the feedback what playing cards you’ve pulled and what your favourite rarity is for Yu-Gi-Oh! playing cards.
