Honestly, now that I think about it, I think they chose the right guy to be the face for the company. Speaks volumes, really. (Allegedly, in my opinion)

Keep in mind this guy knows the predatory nature of up charges, but he doesn't mind profiting off them! (Allegedly, in my opinion.)

People think the seedy underground of altering cards or even straight up creating fake cards is the biggest scam in the hobby. Turns out the biggest scam is the one perpetuated by one of the biggest companies in the space operating right out in the open.

This week we discuss our favorites 1/1's, our least favorites, and if 1/1's are actually worth the prices we pay for them. We also answer a bunch of questions that came in from our IG poll asking the community about their thoughts on 1/1 cards.

I have been collecting Yu Darvish cards since 2012. A few years into it I began to focus primarily on his jersey #d 11/XXX parallels. I won this yesterday. It's probably one of his last releases with the Rangers before he went to the Dodgers. Paired with the relic and being the number it was, I could not believe I got it for less than $1.00! I think this makes around 60 of his jersey numbered cards in my collection. Looking forward to getting it in the mail next week. Poverty mail days are the BEST!

That looks very much like a blue faded autograph.

I hate to call out the other sports card forum, but over on B***Out the user PuddleMonkey is currently testing different inks, including leaving multiple copies of the same autographed card in a room facing different directions and then comparing it to one kept in a storage box. You can find it under the title:

'The 2025 Definitive (not Topps) Color, Paper & Pen Test Thread'

I have long known that the ink on all modern cards will fade over time, but the tests PuddleMonkey is doing, demonstrates how quickly (days not weeks) that Blue Ink can fade if not permanently kept in storage. It also gives you the different shades they go through as they do. The experiment is fascinating and scary all at the same time.

I've been adding Shaun Livingston rookies to the PC, I found this one and swoopped it up! Back then, photography was important, I loved that the topps set was all draft day or summer league image variations and they used a different image for the front then they did for the back for each card!

I also found the gold refractor and decided to include it in the PC! The shine from 04-05 was crazy great. I love the in game action shot on the front, and that they again used a different image on the back for each rookie was great!

So I was late to the show again, but you guys at one point talked about 'WHAT IFS'

Well I've got a WHAT IF for you, WHAT IF Kemp never got traded to the Cavs and stayed with the Sonics?

Let's be serious here, 2 rings at least.

Kobe / Shaq fans mad AF rn.

Here's another one, what if SHAQ stayed in Orlando?

Amphanee Hardaway, I'd say a couple rings, at least. Sorry, Pacers fans.

That Russell is gorgeous.
The following is not, but figured I should pick it up anyway. Which is strange to say, because I'm usually super selective wiith his autos.
It just reminds me of how badly I wish he had an OG autographics.

I love Echelon. I got really lucky and found a Jermaine O'Neal for my PC a few years ago for like $10.

Found one of these on COMC recently for cheap considering that there are only 71 in existence. Mostly because many people hated Panini Instant. I have a handful of "moments" cards that I truly love and want to remember! Hard to believe it's been 7 years! I remember watching this happen on tv. It will look nice next to the other Dame I posted in another thread last year! And although I know my comrade @AbraCalabro doesn't care for the company that made the card...if my old @$$ mind remembers correctly....He has even more disdain for the team that went home that series....yes? LOL

Pretty cool mailday today. Trademark Moves has some pretty sweet All Star Patches. I used to own a Dirk/KG/Duncan triple but when I sold off my original collection years ago, it was one of the cards I sold. When I came across this on Ebay, I had to get it. The Shaq and Dwight patches are great!

My cousin passed suddenly a few years ago in a freak accident, but he bought me 3 boxes back in the day including a 98-99 Finest. Hit the Kobe jumbo refractor.

Still need the non-subset Rubies, but just got this one in

Last call fellas, been holding these a bit and really want to move them or get some trades done. Not an ultimatum, just don't want to hold on to these any longer than I have to. Most of these going to consignment next week.

just looked at COMC fees, lol, never mind.

But I'm listing most of this stuff elsewhere, want it gone gone gone.

Absolute BEAST of a card. Who else is in this set? Just curious.
Montana, Rice, Barry Sanders, Steve Young, Marshall Faulk, Mark Brunell and RASHAAN SALAAM of all people lol. Reminds of the first baseball set where it's Griffey, Gwynn and REY ORDONEZ lol
lol

I was legit expecting an Emmitt Smith card to be in that set. Yeah, UD got a little weird around that time with who they were putting in some of these sets. Sick card man, timeless even.

I'm a huge Cowboys fan so if Emmitt or Troy were in this set, I'd be allll over it

Man some of the inclusions and omissions on these OG Game Jersey sets still blows my mind to this day. No Smith, or Aikman, also no Kemp in the original 97/98 basketball one is such a huge question mark.

Man didn't realize Kemp isn't in the original 97 set and that checklist is much more extensive, yet they put Kerry Kittles in the set! Hahaha.

I've got a lot more than I'm posting now, but this is what I have photos of so far.

I've only done 1 deal here on HB, but ya'll know me from everywhere on the web and have done tons of deals elsewhere and have a good reputation. My feedback thread HERE doesn't have my positive experience with dengbang because he didn't leave me feedback but it was good.

I'm open to trades but I'm picky, and mostly do Topps 1956-1995 slabbed, Topps Chrome 1996-current raw or slabbed, and some Heritage & Archives stuff. I'm mostly a HoFer collector, but have a few PC guys. lmk what you have to trade.

As we continue to celebrate the landmark 30th anniversary of Pokémon, the trading card market has reached a level of maturity that was once reserved for fine art. At the heart of this billion-dollar industry is a single, fire-breathing dragon.

With an influx of high-net-worth capital and the anniversary hype, prices for grail cards have shattered records.

*Magic: The Gathering Secrets of Strixhaven TCG Checklist and Set Details The return to Strixhaven University has brought us some of the most mechanically complex and rewarding preconstructed decks we’ve seen in years. Among them is the Witherbloom Pestilence deck, a Black-Green deck that perfectly captures the life-as-a-resource philosophy of the college. Helmed by the new mythic commander Dina, Essence Brewer, this deck wants to generate massive value by sacrificing 1/1 Pest tokens to grow your board and drain your opponents. The following ten surgical swaps are designed to increase your deck’s velocity and deepen its synergy with +1/+1 counters. […]

The Lorehold Spirit preconstructed deck introduces the Gravebreak mechanic, a good source in Red-White value that focuses on cards leaving your graveyard.

However, the current metagame is a wild place. Between the high-speed Sneak triggers from the Teenage Mutant Ninja […]

BECKETT :: Budget Cards to Combat the Mulcharmy Dilemma in Yu-Gi-Oh! :: Author admin

no_email@example.com (admin) — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 10:44:16 +0000

The Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG metagame is currently grappling with a significant structural tension, with the necessity of high-impact lingering hand traps versus the actual financial accessibility of those cards for the average player. Central to this debate is the Mulcharmy archetype, a series of monsters designed to rebalance the game’s relationship with special summoning loops. Despite receiving common reprints in the Legendary Modern Decks 2026 (L26D), the market performance of Mulcharmy Fuwalos has created what I am calling the Mulcharmy dilemma. For a common staple that most competitive decks want to run at three, the $10 price tag represents a steep […]

In December 2000, Pokémon TCG entered its first true era of evolution with the release of Neo Genesis. The expansion introduced the Johto region and Generation II Pokémon to a global audience. Neo Genesis revolutionized the game’s core mechanics by introducing Darkness and Metal types, complete with Special Energy cards. Beyond energy, Neo Genesis introduced Pokémon Tools and the Baby Rule, a stall-heavy mechanic that slowed down the breakneck competitive speed of the early Wizards of the Coast era. It was a monumental milestone that bridged the gap between the original 151 species and a wider, more complex world of […]

BECKETT :: The Top Five Mega Evolution Cards in Pokémon :: Author admin

no_email@example.com (admin) — Fri, 01 May 2026 19:57:54 +0000

Mega Evolution, a powerful mechanic that first defined the XY era, continues to remain popular in Pokémon TCG. These cards are known for their massive HP and devastating attacks, but they come with high-stake trade-offs. In the modern format, knocking out a Mega Evolution Pokémon ex nets the opponent two to three prize cards. Balancing that risk is the key to mastering the current meta. From the gold-bordered classics of 2014 to the narrative-driven Special Illustration Rares of today, these are the top five Mega Evolution cards to ever hit the table. Top Five Mega Evolution Cards M Gengar EX […]

*Magic: The Gathering Hot and Cold List for the Week of April 27, 2026 It’s been a good week in the Magic: The Gathering secondary market, largely dictated by the results of Pro Tour Secrets of Strixhaven in Las Vegas and the continued explosion of the Premodern format.

Passion for collecting cards can come from numerous sources, but one that appears time and time again is discovering the hobby as a kid. A childhood rip of a Topps Baseball pack was enough to hook Russell Savage-Fink. Chasing cardboard for fun has grown into a lifetime of collecting, which has expanded to putting on wildly successful 757 Card Shows in the Mid-Atlantic region. It is amazing what Mike Schmidt and Rollie Fingers cards can do to an impressionable young collector.

The Pokémon Trading Card Game has seen hundreds of sets over the last few decades, but few carry the unique aura of the Southern Islands (SI) collection. Released in English on July 31, 2001, this wasn’t a standard booster-pack expansion. Instead, it was a curated 18-card promotional set sold in a special three-ring binder to coincide with Pokémon the Movie 2000. Today, Southern Islands stands as a masterpiece of the Neo era, prized for its cohesive world-building and extreme technical rarity. Because the set was never distributed in randomized packs, its value is entirely dictated by the surviving population of […]

The set was made up entirely of reprints pulled from the game’s first four expansions – Base Set, Jungle, Fossil, and Team Rocket – giving players and collectors a second chance at some of the most iconic cards ever printed. It was also the first Pokémon set to introduce reverse holographic cards, featuring an exclusive “fireworks” foil pattern across the card’s background that has never been replicated in any set since. Even common cards with this treatment are worth real money today. So, […]

The question that matters now is which Charizard you owned, because in 2026, that single detail is the difference between a card worth a few hundred dollars and one worth several thousand. The Base Set is the foundation of the Pokémon TCG hobby, but not all Base Set cards are created equal. There are three distinct print variations that collectors need to understand. These are First Edition, Shadowless, and Unlimited. Most people are familiar with the First Edition stamp, and most people know that Unlimited is what […]

Whether acquiring a card as an investment piece or as an addition to the personal collection, getting a Pokémon card graded is a special moment in the hobby. Outside of ripping open a pack, there is arguably no greater thrill than unboxing a graded order filled with Gem Mints. For those in resell mode, the next big thrill is cashing in after a high-value sale. Searching through public sales data on graded TCGs, five transactions were found from April into mid-May that caught our attention. Sold!

no_email@example.com (admin) — Mon, 18 May 2026 20:09:28 +0000

There is a subset of the Pokémon TCG collecting community that has quietly built its entire identity around the e-Card era, and if you spend more than five minutes talking to one of them, you will understand why. Released on September 15, 2002, Expedition Base Set arrived at a complicated moment in the hobby. The Pokémon bubble had deflated considerably since the dizzying heights of 1999, print runs were conservative, and the Nintendo e-Reader technology baked into every card’s enlarged left and bottom borders meant these cards were being swiped through machines, not sleeved and stored. The result is a […]

The Pokémon TCG secondary market for the week of May 18 is all about Chaos Rising.

The Pokémon TCG’s fourth Mega Evolution era expansion, Chaos Rising, arrives on May 22, 2026, and the set delivers exactly what its name promises. The narrative framing is pulled straight from the world of Pokémon Legends: Z-A, where the Kalos region’s iconic capital is under siege. Mega Floette ex, the Eternal Flower Pokémon and AZ’s long-lost companion, has blossomed into something far more dangerous than a symbol of eternal life and grief. As chaos spreads through the city streets, it falls on Mega Greninja ex to rally the other Mega Evolution Pokémon and push back the darkness before Lumiose falls […]

While headlines have rightfully gone to cards like the Elder Dragon cycle and the Emeritus mythics, some of the most impactful cards from SoS are quietly sitting in bargain bins and budget binders.

Nostalgia is a powerful force in the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG, and a whole generation of duelists who grew up watching Yugi and Kaiba duke it out on Saturday mornings are now adults with disposable income and a lot of feelings about their childhood collections. The earliest sets, Legend of Blue-Eyes White Dragon (LOB), Starter Deck: Joey (SDJ), and Magician’s Force (MFC), were the foundation of the entire TCG in North America. Released between 2002 and 2003, these were the first cards that millions of players ever touched. First edition prints in particular are becoming increasingly hard to find in Near-Mint condition, […]

For every Reserved List staple clogging up Commander wish lists, there is a legal, reprinted, budget-friendly card doing a version of the same job. Are these substitutes identical? No. Are some of them close enough to make the difference negligible at your table? Absolutely. Here are five of the most meaningful swaps you can make right now. Top MTG […]

UPPER DECK :: The Hunt Begins: Be a Part of History as Neopets Battledome TCG Announces Its First Numbered Card :: Author admin

no_email@example.com (admin) — Mon, 27 Apr 2026 16:02:19 +0000

The Two-of-Two Ring

The Ye Olde Fishing Vortex follows a Neopets journey to the Underwater Fishing Cavern with hopes of reeling in The Two Ring, and we wanted to pay tribute to the Ring by creating a two-of-two unique Neopets Battledome Trading Card Game card. The most iconic element of the Ye olde Fishing Vortex is the Two Ring itself: the treasure and temptation, “A slight upgrade” of power.

And so, as part of an extraordinarily rare and exciting promotion only for the Neopets Battledome TCG Curse of Maraqua set, we made two such cards.

© 2026 The Upper Deck Company. © Neopets 1999-2026 All Rights Reserved.
Only two copies of this artwork and rarity exist in the entire world. We wanted to create the ultimate chase item for the most dedicated collectors. This full art numbered 1 to 2 card showcases stunning artwork by Jessica Geis and is printed on dazzling rainbow foil board with Spot UV treatment. It is sealed with gold Scodix numbering. The serialized Two Ring Cards also feature the Maractite blue hot foil stamped card name and cost. This is a distinguishing characteristic of the new card rarity, Maractite Rare, debuting in Curse of Maraqua, and is featured on several other cards in this set.

© 2026 The Upper Deck Company. © Neopets 1999-2026 All Rights Reserved.
Not everyone can handle the powers of the numbered The Two Ring. You can also collect The Two Ring in Rare and Maractite Rare. Rarity and artwork are the only differences between these cards.

The Two Ring serialized cards will be entering circulation with the upcoming release of the Neopets Battledome TCG Curse of Maraqua Booster Box! Will you be one of the two to pull the card and make history?

Stay up to date on all things Neopets Battledome TCG and watch these teasers get revealed by following our socials!

UPPER DECK :: Neopets Weekly Series 2 :: Author admin

no_email@example.com (admin) — Mon, 27 Apr 2026 21:03:44 +0000

Hello Neopets fans and collectors! We’re excited to talk about the upcoming Neopets Weekly Series 2, featuring favorite Neopets and some fun painted versions of them. These cards will be released exclusively on Upper Deck e-Pack over a period of nine weeks. If you collected any of the cards from the first series, you’ll have a good understanding of how the weekly packs work. If not, don’t worry! We’ll go over the releases in this post.

Starting April 28th, packs will release each Tuesday featuring three different Neopets. In Series 1, we featured Baby and Fairy painted pets along with the base pets. There were also achievements with Darigan and Mutant pets as achievements. Series 2 will feature Eventide and Maractite painted pets along with the base pets, with Pirate and Maraquan painted pets as achievements.

Each pack will have 4 cards: 1 of each Neopet in a base color, and 1 random Eventide painted variant! There is also a chance to pull a bonus card, which can be one of four card types: Maractite painted Neopet variant, a Pirate Paint Brush, a Printing Plate, or a Grundo Warehouse loot card.

Example of Printing Plates

The Grundo Warehouse card will have a code on it that you can use to redeem for an in-game item on Neopets.com. Printing Plates are the metal plates that were used in the printing of the cards. Printing Plates are 1 of 1 items and come in Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. You have a chance to pull a printing plate for any of the base, Eventide, Maractite, or Pirate Neopets.

Additionally, each week there will be achievements to redeem for additional cards! Achievements are ways to earn rarer cards just from collecting the regular cards. You can view the Achievements page HERE. A simple one is that if you get a Pirate Paintbrush, you can go to the Achievements page where you’ll be able to combine the paintbrush with the base Neopet selected for that week. You’ll then get a card with the Pirate version of that pet.

If you collect the three Eventide variants, you can redeem them for a Maraquan Paint Brush. You can then combine that brush with the base Neopet selected for that week to receive the Maraquan version of that pet! If you are one of the first four collectors to redeem for the Maraquan Neopet, you can also redeem for a random printing plate of that Maraquan Neopet.

If you’re curious about the difference between Combine and Redeem, I’ll explain that now. When you combine cards, the cards that are combined will no longer be in your inventory and you will receive a new card in their place. When you redeem a card (or cards) for another, the cards that are redeemed will then have a yellow “R” tab on it showing it has been redeemed and cannot be redeemed for another achievement. They can still be used in combining, though.

Example of Redeemed Cards

I hope this guide has helped to get you ready to collect the Neopets Weekly Series 2 cards as they come out! Be sure to keep an eye on our social media to see which Neopets will be released each week!

UPPER DECK :: Rush of Ikorr Developer Update: Banned List :: Author admin

no_email@example.com (admin) — Fri, 08 May 2026 20:07:28 +0000

Now that Shattered Chaos and Merciless Battlegrounds have had some time to simmer and the meta is starting to flatten, it was time for us to address some problematic cards. As we approach multiple competitive tournaments, it was important for us to bring to light these changes in hopes of creating a more interesting and diverse metagame. It is a solid list, but we feel that this will allow players the freedom to express their playstyles more confidently. Below the list, we have provided some design and developer notes regarding these decisions to give you clarity.

The following cards are banned in Rush of Ikorr constructed play. This means that none of these cards may be registered in decklists for sanctioned events.
Banned
Stargazer ROI-084 C
Ritual Practitioner ROI-075 U
Starry Deer Crocodile ROI-085 U
Niobe, Sulking Stone ROI-123 R
Ix Chel, Lady Rainbow ROI-009 R/ROI-010 R
Tsukuyomi’s Twilight ROI-189 UR
Trade Skills ROI-188 U
Tzolk’in (Infusion) ROI-289 R
Tresses of Nephthys (Infusion) RMB-274 R
Hermes’ Lyre (Infusion) ROI-269 R

Stargazer
As the game grows, so does the potential to take advantage of free influence. With an influence cost of 0, Stargazer has proven to be a staple in any yellow-based deck, allowing you to jump ahead of the curve. However, the real power lies in its inconspicuous pip allowance, turning any infusion with a cost of 1 into a powerful effect that also nets you an influence. For these reasons, Stargazer is banned.

Ritual Practitioner
When it comes to design, there is always an assessment of risk and cost involved in balancing cards. In the context of the Reanimate keyword, our approach to balancing it was to force its owner to eventually void it, breaking the loop and cashing it in one last time. Ultimately, the intention of the void is to serve as a zone where it feels cards are “gone for good” or that they served their time. Ritual Practitioner directly undid this principle and was far too efficient in skirting around the costs associated with Reanimate and similar effects that involved the void. For these reasons, Ritual Practitioner is banned.

Starry Deer Crocodile
Starry Deer Crocodile has been a bit of a boogeyman since Shattered Chaos and we thought that dealing with the powerful threat of Blessing of Osiris would be enough to slow the associated combo down. However, time has proven that this champion is still a dominating piece in the meta and we felt it was the correct choice to sacrifice it. As the game moves forward, we will be far more careful and attentive to abilities that refresh influence. In a “perfect-curve” game, refreshing influence often feels like taking extra turns and we have found that is not the gameplay experience we want to provide our players. Due to the crocodiles combo potential in producing infinite influence, it is banned.

Niobe, Sulking Stone
In the early stages of the game, especially before the popularity of 2v2 and 3v3, Niobe was an underdog, not seeing much play due to its symmetrical tax. However, as multiplayer has grown and the prevalence of Typhon & Izanagi decks increases, Niobe has found a home in sufficiently slowing down the opponent’s ability to answer the inevitability of a board full of beasts or other aggressive threats. In addition, the gameplay experience of facing down one Niobe is manageable, but when there are two, sometimes three of them across the table, it quickly devolves into a very poor experience for the entire team. For these reasons, Niobe, Sulking Stone, is banned.

Ix Chel, Lady Rainbow
Avatars have a particularly interesting design challenge to them in that we must check many cards against them repeatedly as the card pool expands. In a lot of cases, this makes designing relevant cards intriguing because it allows players to look back on a previous avatar and consider how new options add to the experience they create. Ix Chel has proven the flip side of that scenario in that development has had to “Ix Chel Check” cards such that they are not immediately made abusable by the avatar. This has created boundaries on our design capabilities, thus creating less exciting or impactful options for future cards. Additionally, players have discovered that the value Ix Chel generates as an avatar is far too powerful. Due to its current power and the future potential only proving stronger, Ix Chel, Lady Rainbow, is banned.

Tsukuyomi’s Twilight
From the start, we knew Tsukuyomi’s Twilight was both splashy and very impactful and thus built inherent guardrails into its mechanics. We said “we want it to do this, but not more than once” and that proved to be sufficient. As the game has grown since then, the mid to late game experience has shown to be swingy and grindy in fun and interesting ways. Tsukuyomi’s Twilight has not been one of those fun and interesting cards. After all said and done, the effect creates a three-turn yield on the game that adds time while removing agency and impactful decision-making. This hinders the pace of play and overall player experience. For these reasons, Tsukuyomi’s Twilight is banned.

Trade Skills
As mentioned before, free (or refreshed) influence has created problematic gameplay loops and negative player experiences in its potential to capitalize on game-winning actions. While seemingly innocuous, Trade Skills poses some back-breaking advantages in multiplayer that leads to both unfair and overwhelming board states. On curve, two copies of Trade Skills can provide a center player with 6 influence on turn 2. This doesn’t account for cost reducers or recursion, which only make this sort of conversion more effective. In an effort to slow down the potential of a burst in resources, Trade Skills is banned.

Tzolk’in (Infusion)
Similar to other cards on this update, Tzolk’in provides influence advantage at a rate that is disproportionate to where we intended those effects to be at. This infusion has served a very powerful role in combo decks and due to its inherent quality as an infusion, is very easily implemented. Additionally, with Maya jumping to the forefront of the meta in its effectiveness, the barrier of entry for this infusion is quite thin. For these reasons and a continued effort to slow down the rate at which players can manipulate influence, Tzolk’in is banned.

Tresses of Nephthys (Infusion)
While recursion is a necessary element to any card game, Tresses of Nephthys capitalizes on it at too little of a cost. At only 1 infusion cost and the inherent flexibility of infusions, it has proven to be far too efficient. There are several other routes to similar recursion but at far more reasonable costs. To add more variety to the recursion options, Tresses of Nephthys is banned.

Hermes’ Lyre (Infusion)
We knew when designing Rush of Ikorr that infusions would pose a unique balancing challenge simply with the sheer number of combinations that are available with each expansion, compounding exponentially. While this does not discourage us from designing both thematic and playable infusions, it does allow for a margin of unexpected power. Hermes’ Lyre has been a standout option at such an incredibly low cost, we have felt that it has served its time. Due to its high efficiency and being able to be placed on any nonFabled champion, it outclasses a lot of other options and for these reasons, Hermes’ Lyre is banned.

Additional Notes Regarding the Moonlit Magic Starter Deck
While the avatar and some of the cards in the Moonlit Magic starter deck are now banned,
that doesn’t mean you can’t still play with the starter deck. Players may legally register the
Moonlit Magic deck in a sanctioned event if and only if the deck is completely unchanged.
This also means the booster pack included in the box cannot be added to a player’s deck.
