why are people scalping pokemon cards right now Scalpers lined up since 4am for : r/mildlyinfuriating Replying to @Jacob Corrales it

I know I sure cant wait to jump on a plane and battle in Chicago for the Open Series on release weekend

Retreat to Coralhelm, Sakura-Tribe Scout, and a bounce land like Simic Growth Chamber establish a strong loop to get infinite landfall triggers, and thats just the simplest combo to come to mind

On the one hand, that makes it a less desirable target, especially against decks that should be running tons of ways to boost its power at instant speed

With intense artwork and a solid 3-4k starting price, it could rise if it becomes a staple

People are also always trying to have the lowest price on eBay, which drives down prices, which while good for us buyers, can drive down the market value of a card
