I think it's an adjustment. Some of that stuff was just too high in the first place. They will reach those prices again 5-10 years in the future imo. I also think that like Magic, when more players play, more people with deep pockets will take notice and become interested in buying the oldest and rarest bits.
We are waiting for the PvE/Multiplayer formats, and wider range of hero releases to come. (eg ability to chose from like 4-5 wizards, guardians etc instead of playing just the one representative of a class thats allowed at the time)
Another good video mate, I agree with everything you said. Considering I have just got back into collecting Flesh and Blood I can wholeheartedly say the newer sets being released are incredible. I still feel the early sets are awesome and will be on my list but only when I am up to date with the newer sets. Let's hope more people get into the game and keep the player base strong
naah, but imagine quite a few. the peops that dare to touch new tcg often corelate on the newer games. value in sorcery is high indeed, but collecting one set a year and some singles that might see more play until game grows seems like it shouldnt have the biggest impact on fab. im not there tho, so just a guess ^^ I think tho that soo many value oriented collectors are missin out so much nowadays. the market is great imo.
btw, its always mtg first peops 90/100 right? we need more ygo people its just like that. suits fab muuuch better. nobody really collected ygo sets but cards that are strong, cool looking and rare??? give em all to us :D
You missed the elephant in the room. F&B entry level and game is way too high and hard. It took me six month to fully understand all classes back at Dynasty when I played. And if you’re a new player theres plenty of games thats way easier to start with = more fun for the most people. Lorcana is in a good spot, Star wars Unlimited is surprisingly fun. Even Altered tcg looks fresh and fun. This is the main reason prices in F&B going down. And it might be a good thing actually. Making it more accessible for new players
Correct, and the prices and limited availability of some staples is a significant entry barrier. Especially by now, this game is so competitive that only optimised decks are worth playing in events.
I didn't miss the elephant in the room. The player base is growing. This isn't what the video is about. It's about collectors leaving. It's actually the contrary. Players are joining and playing, but collectors leave. Numbers worldwide at armoury level and event level continue to grow. I don't disagree that prices are very high. The entry level for this game is high. It's lower than it was, however, 2 years ago, but specifically, generic Ms are very expensive. However, 2 just got banned which does help. I think most going into this game have accepted that. I'd rather this than yugioh where you spend $600 on a deck for it to all be reprinted 6 months later, you lose all your money then have to spend another 600 because that deck is now irrelevant. Lorcana and one piece are cheaper to play but they don't have the competitive levels fab does. There is a reason why it's the Premier competitive tcg.
Sorcery is almost 3, accounting for kickstarter. Only 2 sets and 4.5k reddit followers. Altered is 6 months old accounting for kickstarter and had over 5k reddit followers. Nothing against sorcery, but its most likely due to having so many options these days. There is only so much money in the pool belonging to people who like tcgs. It's simply dilution of funds across tcgs. Too many options within the game and too many options outside it.
If you have money in the game you have a voice the game was pushed by a Investment Channel which was part of the reason why the game got stupid in prices. Also comparing fab to the pokemon is ballsy since fab is a very small fish and pokemon is the biggest ip in the world...

100%
Really interesting vid, as someone who only really collects Raw atm, really informative
Thanks mate, I think collecting raw and also binder collecting is just one of the great things about this game being able to pick and choose
Singles sell through quickly for me. I'll sell directly when people reach out, but I'm holding most of my originals of wac.
Nice video.
Yep people will go directly to those who they know holding, I'd still keep a lot of my wac because I love them
Haha I’m easily forgettable haha thanks for the shout out. I chuckled out loud 😊
Apologies ahahaha usually I remember usernames not actual names but this time it was the other way round
@@poketinking all good! Thought it was hillarious
Love you longtime ahah
@@poketinking that’s not the kind of talk in the comments
🤣

Yeah PVE and Multiplayer is gonna be sick I cant wait for that
Really enjoy the well thought out and articulated takes on everything happening in FAB. Thanks Jamie
Thanks for watching mate appreciate the kind comments 👌
im still just only acumulating. Ive sold cards and regretted it multiple times, when i wanted to play something else. So i just sit on all my cards
Good point makes sense, otherwise it's just buying it back again
spot on dude! i love these kinds of videos :) well articulated
Thank you kind sir for your support always

veeeery valueable and informative video!
👌👌
Top content as always mate. Keep it up!
Appreciate it brother 🙏
I bought the Breaking Scales, will be slabbed straight away and go into my Katsu deck 👍🏼
Another Katsu main like me 👌👌👌
In Australia, fab collectors went to sorcery.
😭😭

So you went from one rudy game to another?
🤣🤣

They've all gone to Union Arena!!! haha only joking mate, great video as always!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 we did talk about Union Arena at OP locals tbh, but people were disappointed they couldn't play in UK
Always be buying!
👌👌 always a good time to buy
sorcery.
Good game
Sorcery is almost 3, accounting for kickstarter. Only 2 sets and 4.5k reddit followers. Altered is 6 months old accounting for kickstarter and had over 5k reddit followers. Nothing against sorcery, but its most likely due to having so many options these days. There is only so much money in the pool belonging to people who like tcgs. It's simply dilution of funds across tcgs.
Too many options within the game and too many options outside it.
I’m in the boat of wanting pretty cards 😂
100% pretty cards always, especially Marvels. The art is what drew me into fab, and they just keep getting better
@@poketinking yes! Since the dragons I’ve shifted my focus to marvels. Those, the angels, and the mistveil marvels are all super beautiful cards.
Yeah Marvels are really special, those dragons are unreal. I never understood people seeing Marvels and not wanting to collect Fab
So you're saying open my CRU1 boxes right? lol jk, nice video
Ahahha I did, it's fun maybe open 1 cheeky box 👀👀
@@poketinking I did 2 and it was fun and not bad - probably broke even on current day prices
That's not bad at all tbh I've opened and lost on a few 😅
If you have money in the game you have a voice the game was pushed by a Investment Channel which was part of the reason why the game got stupid in prices. Also comparing fab to the pokemon is ballsy since fab is a very small fish and pokemon is the biggest ip in the world...
For sure, fab is it's own game but comparison can be used with many things
It’s a small boutique tcg. Don’t expect prices to be like one piece and definitely not like Magic or Pokemon.
Indeed it is niche it won't reach those levels
Ive never met a single person who played flesh and blood.
I hope you do one day 😅
