Putting the Animal in my Colosseum... Digimon TCG EX05 Opening!

[@TaylorRamsden]

I just got back into Digimon after finding my old collection that hasn't been touched probably in 20+ years. Looking forward to completing the 1999 set. I enjoy watching your box openings, not many Digimon channels out there. Cheers!!

[@strawberrypi]

Oh wow! I bet you’ve got some incredible vintage cards and glad to see you back 🫡

[@threebeforetwo]

Yeah it’s really great that the newer sets are beginning to bring in a variety of new artists who have more varied styles. Though I also love how a chunk of the artists from the art competition 1 and 2 have became repeat artists for the card game.

[@strawberrypi]

Yes! I really like how they’re using the art competition to find new talent 👏

[@Ashtiko]

you spoke the bancholeomon AA into existence. congrats you definitely won with this set

[@strawberrypi]

I was so happy, my boi answered the call 🦁

[@robiu013]

6:41 that MetalEtemon is one of the best artworks the card game ever did. i don't even care about the feet being there.

[@strawberrypi]

Haha tbf that mon got game

[@Heiru3]

Deva deck is rad as heck, good stuff

[@melvanaltena83]

Building the deva deck myself think it is a bit of a sleeper deck the hard play seems harsh but getting to play other level 5 for free and then fanglong with the -16k across the board plus the ace's look amazing so imma do everything i can to make it work! Personal favo alt four sovereign baihumon!

[@strawberrypi]

Good luck on your deck building! I’ve got a few friends playing it so I’ve been asking them for advice, fangy does look so strong

[@JayMurrayJ-arts]

So much yes to the chase target! The feeling is just *chefs kiss*

[@TripleThreatDX]

could you do more deck tech videos please? I really like the animations of that "Excuse me while I wax poetry about my fav Digimon deck" it's really cool how you do those and how you explain things, unless you want to keep you cards close. no pun intended.

[@rodry1644]

Those boxes seem to be great, our local store unfortunately didnt get one so i will have to wait till next week for it to arrive... This asside, my only issue with this set is that originally Fortitude was gonna be called Indomitable which imo would have been such a better name for the skill, especially leomon.

[@Maikeru176]

There were so many out of pocket lines in this one lol Was originally skeptical of some of the alts, especially Kenji(love his art and contributions to the IP, but sometimes the art doesn't hit for me). But the Sovereign alts are honestly gorgeous, and I can't wait for some of my favorite decks getting released/updated this set! Keep up the good work strawberry

[@chemicalchocobo]

the out of pocketness was at a all time high

[@strawberrypi]

The textures on those Kenji arts are 👌 And thank you! Your support means a lot 🫡

[@00sote]

Amazing hits!! The goblin seemed to be pleased and took over for a bit with those final outro words lmao

[@woolpuppy]

Zoo-kay-mon for the bird, and the turtle... In the west, it's dubbed as Ebonwu, ebon as in ebony for the black tortoise of the north. His proper name is Xuanwu, which to me sounds like Shien-woo. Oh, and Qinglongmon is the proper name for the dragon of the east, which to me sounds like Chin-lon-mon. There is a lot of juicy lore surrounding the beasts of the cardinal directions and the dragon of the center. I love them greatly.

[@mr.carter9175]

Im so happy about this set for leo and lunamon.

[@mysticdigital5936]

I have been so hyped about this set ever since it was announced and released in Japan. I love Dawn and Dusk so I am so excited to finally have Koh and Sayo and Coronamon and Lunamon. They're just so good and honesty I didnt care about Blast Ace or Alternative Being that much. This set and BT16 and 17 are really cool. I also saw that apparently they're going to make the card releases simultaneous at some point in the future.

[@strawberrypi]

I did see that too! Apparently BT20 will be a global release! Which is really exciting for card reveals and meta changes. No more looking at Japan first, we make our own way 🫡

[@ramoncastro4737]

Fanglongmon looks badass 🔥🔥

[@7ri3dge]

Glad you gots hits you wanted! And gracenova hit too! I wanted the Dianamon stuff and at least lucky got lunamon alt!

[@strawberrypi]

Oh nice! Hopefully you can find the rest of the cards you need 🫡

[@7ri3dge]

@@strawberrypi i hope the next couple sets for your games treat you well! A friend was able to help me get the deck pretty much complete

[@lilly7500]

Feeding the goblin

[@PointlessPterodacty]

Try to enjoy fortitude while u can...keyword for a set down the road is 'scapegoat'

[@strawberrypi]

That does look good, purple being like: you don’t kill me, only I can kill me

[@Mordekirby]

Great hits and congratulations for the BanchoLeomon alt art. That is the one i want the most together with the Leviamon alt art which is also drawn by Naochika. Maybe i give an update on my hits when my box arrives. Got my box and it had 10 hits too. Got the Coronamon alt art and even tho its normaly just an uncommon card the alt art is so well done that i realy like and i got at least 1 Naochika alt art with MetalEtemon.

[@strawberrypi]

Naochika def one of the goats, never misses on the art! Congrats on your hits, this set does give

[@Mordekirby]

@@strawberrypi I would say the Digimon TCG is blessed with good artists over all and if they bring even more artists with different styles it will just get better in the future.

[@Xandermon]

I want all of them! ALL OF THEM!

[@Nehezir]

Zhuqiaomon probably comes out pronounced like "juuu chow", if memory serves.

[@AuraKnight-kn1ux]

Awesome pulls you love Bancho Leomon Don’t you 😉😉.

[@strawberrypi]

Oh most def 🦁

[@AuraKnight-kn1ux]

@@strawberrypi figured as much 😏. How are you doing these days?

[@icekingjames8791]

[@JoseDelgaur]

[@TKM20XX]

The gremlin is loose I see, still waiting on my boxes so my gremlin will have to wait a bit longer.

[@strawberrypi]

Hopefully you can get the hits your goblin needs 🫡

[@philipp523]

[@d2h655]

I really enjoy your channel! 😂

[@CheckedH]

We approve of toxic mechanics here. Awesome hits congrats!

[@diegomurcia9387]

So nice you were able to pull that Daddy alt 😁, gotta love the fanglongmon a nice dragon there, such a beautiful set ❤

[@josepalacios1778]

So from EX boxes, we can get 10 hits and (2 SEC)

[@lucifel3685]

Convenient that she pulls a secret rare and forgets to hit record. I believe she did, but wow that’d be easy to fake

[@strawberrypi]

I can promise I’m not a fake hit Harriet 😅

[@MichikoHoshi]

I lost on the 50% chance for a secret rare :(

am i the only one who tears the packs along the side with the easy tear strip?

[@brianp6859]

No but coming from english pokemon it took me awhile lol. I also found you have to go decently quick or else you just get a corner piece lol

[@strawberrypi]

I tried to do that for a while, and it felt so alien 😂😅
