Large Sets, New Sets, & Fever Dreams

Michael is under the weather this week, but joins us anyway, and hangs in there like the professional he is. He may even remember some of the discussion! We keep circling back to weather the 80 card Jedi Legacy set is the largest set ever in the app (spoiler alert: No). Hope y'all have had a good week, and happy trading! Here's the airline brochure referenced in the episode:

Celeb-Rey-tion

By the time we released last week's episode, Michael's observation that Rey fervor seemed to be
dying down was already hilariously proven wrong even by our standards of mis-calls, and the 3-day celebration was just ramping up. We'd also talked about how red and blue base didn't seem to have quite the same demand with prospecting...oops. What will we have gotten wrong this week? Tune in and find out! As a special warning, in the post-show we manage to get derailed talking about breakfast cereal; you may find yourself wanting a bowl by the time all is said and done.

New Sets Galore: TFA: Portraits, TFA: Classic Art, Geo-Linear, and more!

Plenty of cards to talk about this week as we've had a number of sets drop. We round them up, from TFA: Portraits, Geo-Linear, to the ones that have kept the good ol' tradable mechanic, like TFA: Classic Art. We also discuss the rumored "gold rush" potentially happening Sunday, so if you're a prospector, make sure you get those counts up to 100. Have a great week, and thanks as always for listening!

Untradable

This week we spend a surprising amount of time actually talking about SWCT...the main topic: the influx of new cards that are dropping as Untradable. Why? We can't get our heads around it completely. We discuss it in relation to the "1 pull per account" mechanic as well, and are of different opinions over how they affect things.

Other discussion highlights: "Selling out a base card"; good-bye Rancor. And Rhett starts chasing green-gradients...less than 24 hours before a bundle goes on sale with all of them and they sell out for good.
