The changed the all star game cards to actually say it, the ones in the paper set just had the team name without any ASG designation. Much better in chrome.

[@StrykerBreaks]

Yes, I agree

[@DavidCorbett-n5j]

Stryker, ignore these yappers in the comments, they don't know what they are talking about! They should be congratulating you on your pulls not complaining about them! Don't people watch these videos to see the products and then evaluate for themselves? People say "oh its a loaded box when you are lucky enough to pulls good card.for your self and " this product stinks when you dont! That's the point of the hobby people!!!! The joy and surprise of pulling bangers or disapoint ment of not is what the hobby is about! Sometimes you strike put sometimes you don't! Keep on doing what you do Stryker! A+ video

[@deanwilson7070]

You did well congrats, $500 for a jumbo, and I bet the break I watched, they got $50 at best and the RC’s were OC, looks like singles again for me.

[@UnderPar_Cards]

Sweet rip! I have a hobby, jumbo, and some megas coming. Can’t wait to rip!

[@gamedaylegends515]

Having too much fun with Stadium Club and update series. Plus it doesn't cost a mortgage payment to open. Fun box opening. Thank you for sharing

[@yarazzy66]

The fat packs from update have treated me so nicely

[@alvarhanso6310]

Apart from the incredibly strange collation, I found Stadium Club to be my favorite release so far this year. Pricing was decent (got in on preorder pricing), and not many numbered cards, but numerous parallels, and great looking cards. My first time ever buying much Stadium Club since never opened much as a kid and just got back into it this year. Saw a Jumbo of this pulled last night, and they literally titled it a "bloodbath". Made me glad I just got 3 Megas on the way. If I strike something, I'll be happy, when I don't, I won't be too disappointed.

[@StrykerBreaks]

@@gamedaylegends515 yeah I’m going to keep opening update for the foreseeable future because it’s more affordable. I’ll still open a good amount of this too.

[@firstclassflagship]

It’s great to see you pull some awesome stuff for yourself!!

[@StrykerBreaks]

Thanks!

[@bspaz020]

Half way through update series hobby box and not 1 Skenes. Not even a base. . I am keeping my head high. Great video once again. You have taught me a lot in my childhood hobby that I am very much into once again!

[@mannyquintana8074]

Love that Lava Skenes. The big dealer deserves the big dealer. Atta way

[@MichaelSmith-fx4qe]

Skenes refractor looks a little heavy on the left. Tough grade probably.

[@bobgriffin8472]

I see the coalition’s merrill chourio and skenes. May be like that allot. Refractor maybe different. Stadium club blew my mind with team coalitions. Great video

[@in2rock275]

I can't afford to gamble on boxes. If I want a particular card, I'll pick it up on eBay for pennies on the dollar. With boxes, it's like playing the lottery to pull a patch auto of the right player to make it worthwhile. I do enjoy watching your videos though. Informative and I like the way you do the spreadsheets. Can't wait to see you open that next envelope with a pair of scissors.

[@jameshughes7068]

Love your channel. Your the GOAT 🐐 of baseball

[@mperry0913]

Those Skenes are beautiful!! I haven't had any luck pulling Skenes, so I took a small break after Chrome came out. Haven't bought anything in about 4-6 weeks or so. So, yesterday, I stopped at Gamestop to trade in a few games, and picked up a blaster of Update. Brought it home, and I pulled the base Skenes, debut Skenes, and the insert Skenes w/ Grandal. Chrome Stars of MLB Wyatt Langford as well as his regular Halloween one. Just about every rookie except Elly too. If I had the money I would have gone back and bought the rest of them. LOL Can't wait to see your breaks with these. Gonna pull some monsters!

[@StrykerBreaks]

Nice pulls!

[@CopeGotti]

Loving the rips bro! I like how you break down what’s in every product so we know what’s the better value

[@StrykerBreaks]

[@uncfester8230]

Your QC looks just fine , i watched CardLab who i never saw before open a jumbo and they were complaining about the QC there first 3 cards were big rookies and all OC ..your auto was better than all 3 of theirs lol ..thanks for sharing i always look forward to your preview

[@joesmith-es1zy]

Except for a few print lines, including one on the negative.

[@shakascloset1700]

I watched that as well.

[@uncfester8230]

[@andrewsnyder2822]

Honestly the mega I’ve opened have been insanely loaded. I’ve opened 6 mega boxes. 1 rookie auto /99, Wyatt Langford /99, Jackson Chourio /99, jd Martinez /15 lava, elly stratospheric star, a /299 veteran, and a few ray wave prism and x-factor of good rookies overall have remained in profit. Trying to decide if I should go buy a hobby at 280 or pick up some more retail mega boxes from where I’ve been getting them. Would love to know your opinion Stryker. Thanks

[@legendkillerjedi]

That magenta skenes is gorgeous

[@TheCollectiveAuthority]

Opening 10 mega from GameStop pre-order since didn’t get in on Topps pre-order so I will let you know how they do. Luckily I have you for case breaks, thank you sir. Sending good vibes ahead for tomorrow just in case I’m late. Let’s Go!

[@derekbaker2665]

There’s not a Stryker video without Kikuchi! Thanks Stryker! Can’t wait to open Chrome update! Everyone will be chasing the Skeene’s and Elly debut patch.

[@StrykerBreaks]

lol thanks for watching!

[@jakeburley9481]

I got 10 megas today! Personally, I would rather spend that money to get 20 Raywave parallels and xfractors, for the price of one jumbo box.

[@miked2560]

That Skenes lava lamp is sick! Love you videos man!

[@StrykerBreaks]

@@miked2560 I love it! Thanks!

[@somethingelsedoesmatter]

I watched a jumbo on the other baseball card channel I follow (the third, I guess, but two of them are you), and it sucked compared to this box. I'd love those Skenes cards, but I would have also loved the Cam Eden card, since the Jays are my team and it's a nice-looking card!

[@gafgounk]

Stryker, I need help. Can you tell me the best value I can get for $150 for buying Topps update regular, whether I buy 10 hanger or 1 hobby or anything. I would really appreciate it!

I've been waiting for this video to drop! :). Those Skenes were HEAT. I'm probably going to open a few Mega's. I love the parallel chase with XFractor's and Ray Waves. More so than chasing autos. And since they come out 1:1 and 1:4 so hopefully its a fun rip and doesn't make me choose between cards and food!

[@tyschilling1755]

Sucks they don’t put everything in the cheaper boxes. It’s hard as the smaller guy to afford these crazy boxes. It’s fun to watch you rip!

Nice box but I’m passing this year. It’s gotten too pricy. I might grab a blaster and scoop up a few singles.

[@zacklackey6559]

They hurt this release by including Holliday, Chourio, Merrill, Langford, Keith in Topps Chrome. They doubled the number of base and parallels for all of those players, and they've already had their first Chrome rookies.

[@StrykerBreaks]

No quite the opposite actually. They improved THIS release by including those players. It hurts regular Topps chrome by watering down the chrome rookies.

Everybody's talking bout "you got a loaded box' but tell me why, I just saw a channel with 1.27k subscribers get a Skeins refractor image variation and a Skeins Blue Ray Wave out of a Chrome Update Jumbo Hobby box?!?

[@marcmikesell5280]

How do you feel about the double printing the true rookies of the three Jacksons? Honestly for me it feels like I can’t even touch the wax because it waters down the biggest names so much that you have to hit a huge card to get anywhere close to getting your value back at the prices that these are at. Watched a guy open a jumbo box earlier and get maybe 40$ worth of cards out of it. Just an absolutely brutal box. I got destroyed on a hobby box of chrome earlier this year and just can’t justify the price of these boxes. But I’ll be watching you rip a ton of it and hope you hit some monsters Stryker.

[@BigRed3-e8z]

Sweet.pulls

[@jeff_lanctot26]

A loaded box? Seriously? What is so loaded about this? It's a 200 cards checklist and you get 96 cards with a hobby. Obviously, you'll pull some good cards and probably all the top rookies base cards. And with such a small checklist, you'll pull some nice parallels too. People also act like he buys only 1 hobby box. Don't compare your luck when you buy one box vs. someone who rips multiple boxes. Go and buy yourselves a case and tell me that you don't have great finds. Some people are just plain stupid and cry foul the minute they see someone do better than them.

[@chupacabra8479]

I don’t think it’s necessarily a hot box but he doesn’t open cases, he breaks cases. This is his personal box he ordered from Topps for preview content. Topps is so familiar with Stryker that they created an insert card of him. Personally, I think it’s naive to think that he would pull multiple Skenes cards worth hundreds of dollars if he used a mock account to make his purchase. I think Stryker is a solid dude but Topps will use anyone with or without their knowledge.
