The FIRST EVER Elestrals Base Set 1st Edition Booster Box Opening!

[@Elestrals]

What cards are you most looking forward to pulling when you get your 1st Edition packs?

[@zachpatterson9010]

I need to round out my set of viscerys so I need one more, also would love to pull a full art Demeter, need 1 more alter of stars as well

[@jonathanwagner526]

Full art Demeter, Rise from the ashes, and sonicore are the main ones. Even though I haven’t played at all yet and literally discovered this like 3 days ago, I’m wanting to build an earth/thunder deck and so general support in those elements would also be great.

I'm starting my own tcg, I would love to see a video that's a guide to AdMagic plz

[@RowRowsDad615]

Vysceris

[@zachpatterson9010]

They look so good! And the randomization is 10x better, such a better pack opening experience that way. Thank you aDrive for taking the time to make sure the quality is there! It is much appreciated and I cannot wait for the future of this game!

[@RowRowsDad615]

I can not wait to get my shattered stars and my first edition stuff. I’m so excited I already am chomping at bits to preorder FrostFall

[@galaxzsea]

Can't wait to get my 1st edition boxes!! Love these cards! Very excited about the future!

[@TeaDrinkingGuy]

Amazing to see UK shipping at a reasonable cost! Just got a whole bunch that I won't be scared to play with!

[@Elestrals]

So glad to hear it! Thank you!!

[@benny5508]

Ordered my 2 booster boxes! Looking forward to them!

[@jasonsumma1530]

If I remember right, the bears were also bunched together. The better spread will lead to more trading between players even if they are commons or uncommon. My big question is will there be time\amount of cards for multiple orders from an individual in case they (particularly myself) want several things but need to spread out the money. My current thought is three separate orders with two of them being a booster box each and the third being the 5 starter decks which I already have from the founder edition. This isn't counting getting any of the sleeves and I will agree with aDrive about the one with all six spirits backing and the eight elemental symbols.

[@regentmango7533]

LETS GOOOOOO IM SO EXCITED TO GET MY BOX!!!

[@Elestrals]

Happy to hear that! Definitely let us know what you pull! 👀

[@ryanbeckett2313]

These packs look awesome aDrive. Love the quality and randomness increases from the kickstarter sets. I know it’s probably going to wait until local game stores get products, and I totally understand why it’s not possible yet because the project is still small compared to other TCGs but I would love a way to by individual packs in the future, outside of the blister packs. I am sadly not in a financial state to be able to afford a whole boster box rn but having a way to add a little to my collection at a time would be awesome. I am bringing it up rn because these cards look so good and I want more lol. Can’t wait to see where this game goes in 2024!

[@jasonsumma1530]

I fully understand where you are coming from. By the math, booster boxes are almost half-price for the packs compared to the blister packs. My problem is I want two booster boxes and maybe another set of the starter decks.

[@ryanbeckett2313]

@@jasonsumma1530 I understand the math that price per pack is a lot cheaper, especially with the blister packs, but for my current financial situation spending $20 or even $40 is doable but $130 is not. This is why selling single packs would be such a big deal to me. I wish I had your money and was debating if I could afford 2 boosters and a set of starter decks, I am however very happy with my 1 starter deck and looking forward to getting a second one with first addition to be able to play with friends. Just being able to play the game is really cool to me.

[@sylar1989]

Looks like the same foil design that metazoo used for there cards, just with slight differences. I do like that foil design though.

[@vuzyra9211]

i buy 5 starter decks... sleeves , playmate and deck boxes and a display to get started... sad that the elestral logo sleeves are sold out.

[@the_skywalker644]

Are there still a set amount of hollows and full arts in a booster box or has that changed due to the better randomisation?

[@PeteDorrTCG]

Thank you so much for fixing my #1 “criticism” if you will, that I had with KS boxes. After opening the fixed/guaranteed 12 holos it gave me no reason to open any leftover packs, so knowing that holo odds are slightly varied this time around sounds like a much better opening experience. Can you elaborate at all on the “estimated” holo odds? Like is it possible to open only 10 or 11, or is it possible to open as much as like 15 or even 16+? Just curious how much variance they may be in holos per box expectations or if opening 14 holos is the new stopping point for pulls.

[@PeteDorrTCG]

This will definitely determine how many boxes I decide to order, so if anyone ever finds out the answer to this just let me know, thanks

[@Noah-hz9cx]

Imma start getting real invested as soon as a locals gamestore sells these :)

[@WallyJTV]

I am an Exaltair fan, lets go set 2

[@RowRowsDad615]

Got all but the water starter deck, 2 things of sleeves, 3 blisters for NoG, 3 for ambrosia and a booster box

[@Elestrals]

Thanks so much for the support!

[@RowRowsDad615]

@@Elestrals you’re very welcome

[@dustinkingsbury5554]

What’s good what’s good Dan! What’s good what’s good. I hope all is going well with elestrals!

[@Elestrals]

Thanks Dustin!

[@Wolfheart2299]

Did the Alt Art spirit placement change? The Vipyro had a Teratlas in the pack as well when you did the card trick

[@iSoultanic]

game looks like it gonna be another Force of Will, something with great potential that the designers are going to fail to keep it afloat

[@Elestrals]

I appreciate the kind words about the potential but I assure you we will do more than keep it afloat. I’ve got over a decade of experience grinding and building a 1 million + person audience, I can do it again and better. Hope you’ll join us for the journey! - aDrive

[@vuzyra9211]

with rise from the ashes... do i have to put spirits from my deck under the elestral i reborn? so 3 cost for card and 2 for spirit = 5 spirit?

[@Elestrals]

Correct! You still have to enchant whatever you’re reviving

[@Thatdudemantell]

Is it common to get all your holos on top? It was a bit disappointing once I realized the rest of the packs weren’t going to have a holo

[@Elestrals]

We are fixing this for the next set! Sorry about that!

[@matzky]

Really cool to hear that you have such a structured plan for the concept. but is there a reason that you will launch new sets quite frequent vs the first few ones grow into a bigger audience?

[@Elestrals]

I don’t think 3 new sets in a year is too frequent when other games do 5-6 😅

[@matzky]

@@Elestrals it might be, i am not a TCG expert. just thinking about inventing new elestrals, new designs as well. gotta have a lot of ideas

[@jasonsumma1530]

@@Elestrals One advantage of fewer sets compared to the other games is you have more time for quality control which you emphasize more than anything else. Sure, once everyone gets into a routine it will go smoother but I hope the due diligence on quality control will still be there. Once it gets smoother, ideally the time for quality control will take less so you could have more time to work on other aspects of the company\game.

[@RowRowsDad615]

I haven’t watched this 5 times now 😂😂 ok you caught me I so did

[@andrewhattorff7348]

Is this going to be available in LGS's and Big Box Stores?

[@Elestrals]

That’s the plan! By summer we hope to make big progress

[@saturninebear]

Epic!

[@CruisM]

I understand this is the first run but is there a discount code by any chance?

[@devonhuckaby5438]

Are you still doing new starter decks for frost fall?

[@Elestrals]

Yes we will have 2 new starter decks

[@mrimyourlawyer6005]

Is this available now?

[@Elestrals]

Yes! shopelestrals.com

[@-Down-D-Stairs-]

Neopets that you?

[@aleksabroad]

I ain’t gunna lie bro, I genuinely admire what you have done, but $100 bucks for an unheard of TCG game in the TCG realm is pretty steep

[@Elestrals]

You can get involved at a starter deck level for much less! As a smaller game our costs to produce are much higher. We feel our pricing is very fair considering the premium quality! Thanks for your feedback!

[@RowRowsDad615]

That’s a normal price for any booster box actually

[@ContentChaser]

No more 7 leonite or 5 spinosect per box woooooo

[@ChrisiOlson91]

Pls lower price I will never be able to afford affording
