I don’t know if it’s just me, but these scarlet & violet packs lately have had WAYY more luck than the sword & shield packs. Like anytime I get one of these boxes, I get no full arts, alt arts, or anything like that, just v’s and vmax’s. Your luck this December has been 🔥. I hope you get more alt arts, or cards that you want in general, have a nice day.. or night depending on when you’re reading this.

@TheRealMrSpaceMonkey Yoooo Merry Christmas, brotha! Bro, you're absofk'nlutely right! Typically, SwSh hit rates are horrendous, especially the eleventeenth reprinted ones! I'm amazed these two Legendary boxes I've opened had 1 alt art each! Hitting 2 out of 28 packs is insanely rare! Hitting the Rotom out of 8 LO pks, and the full art Zard out of 4 Brilli packs is leprechaun lucky af! Def sending them both for grading! Anyway, with S&V, there are much more hits put in the sets. SIR'S, IR's, full arts, etc make it literally like 1 in 10 packs at avg pulling something decent. Some ppl won't understand this, but I've ripped around 200 Fusion Strike & Lost Origin pks from tins with Evolving Skies in it. My best ever FS pull was the wrong Gengar Vmax #157 😂 & like 4 Gold Giratina V Star from LO b4 hitting this Rotom. SwSh is much more brutal than S&V. Anyway, hope u and your fam had a great Christmas!

That Gold pikachu pull must have felt very exciting and mad at the same time, exciting cause you pulled it, mad cause you weren't recording LOL

@sadashi5281 Bro, the bundle was meh. Then I opened the last pack which featured the big stupid building art. Once I saw the gold border, and 3 gold stars indicating I hit a gold, I immediately yelled, "FUCK! If this is the Gold Pika, Imma be sick & throw up all over myself. Then as I slowly revealed the card, I started dry heaving excessively. Then the other half of me was like, FUCKKK YESSS GOLD PIKAAAA!!" So ya, there was def a combined positive & negative reaction, 😅

HUGE w the last pack magic after talking about hitting an alt in only 4 packs 😂🤘 funny enough that's the only alt I ever pulled from over 350 packs of LO before I gave up. But how dare you talk blasphemy on ST and like that Goofy Machamp set better 😂 Na I should give AR a better chance bc that Starmie and Garchamp are badass. I also quit ST after hitting the Lugia Alt lol but you're now no longer allowed to hate archafknludon after the gold pika 💥

@CrashRips 😂💀 I swear when I get pissed & disappointed af, I always end up hitting a banger card within the last few packs that completely changes my mood. 😅 Ya man, LO has been super rough for me! Worse than Evolving Skies & Fusion Strike, if u can believe it! The Alt Rotom was such a surprise hit! Hahaha blasphemy! I knew you'd give me hell for that opinionated statement! 🤣 Other collectors, investors, and fans have AR ranked ahead of ST, and some have it behind it only bc of the Lugia is more valued than Machamp. But they all know Astral has more desired cards in the set. Lmaoooo bro I got something special planned for ArchafknbuilDON in a future video! I will never again trash talk the big dumb building after this response. 😂 Btw, Merry Christmas to u and yours! 🎅 🧑🎄 🌲 ⛄️

@GrimmRipper88 thats me all the time, ill immediately rip something off cam after a bad vid 😂 LO has easily been the worst set to me of any other. And that makes sense about AR, I as normal like all the things that aren't bigger hits and just really like all the arts in ST 😂🤷🏼♂️ Excited for the build and absolutely Merry Christmas to you too buddy!!!

@@CrashRips😂 I remember after that horrible 151 vid, I ripped like 10 packs of Brilliant Stars off camera and hit the Arceus V. Then said, hmmm figures. Fair enough. The art is supposed to be more important than the overall value. It wpuld be nice if some cool looking cards were more valuable, though lol.

@GrimmRipper88 I have a BS booster box I've been holding to rip for a vid and am hoping for that Arceus over the Zard 😂 I will *not* be mad in the slightest hitting that zard tho lol and Merry Christmas for real today 🥳

@CrashRips If you hit the Umbreon V Max, I'll trade ya! Their worth about the same. Def looking forward to seeing that vid! Merry Christmas for reals this time! Lol. Bro, I was up until 3am wrapping gifts. Then woke up at 7am to start prepping the food. Big Italian/Irish family = no rest & alot of food! I'm so exhausted lol. But good news is think I'm slipping into a food coma as I type.. 😂
