You can always tell if cards are from the world championship decks by their backs, they'll have a different back to normal and cards that should be holo like this are not. There'll be a comment somewhere on the card about tournament play too.

It's from a world championship deck so it's essentially worthless to begin with. What's happened with this is the printer head or the card has misaligned during the signature print. Kind of cool but if you're looking for monetary value it likely has none.

I catch myself counting almost every single person I see on the street when I'm on the bus and don't know why I'm doing it,

It depends on what I'm playing. I can happily play a few rounds of BFV and then head onto OW2 for a few rounds, but recently I've been playing the Oblivion Remaster and end up playing exclusively that for hours at a time

Hello all As those on the discord are aware, we've been mulling over running some TCG tournaments for the community for a while. Before I go any further with it I'd like to gauge where players on the community sit with it all. I appreciate that some of you prefer/only play Pocket. I am happy to...

Every boss fight in MGS4, except for Vamp and Rex Vs Ray. Metal Gear was known for it's crazy boss fights with outlandish characters up until 4. The BB unit didn't really cut it. Peace Walker also has this issue, but the boss fights there are a bit more creative.

The Ecco games actually had such surreal, sick soundscapes

I could buy Puka being a reincarnation of Jan, I certainly don't think that a gyarados or something similar randomly turned him into a Pikachu. I think the implication is that Jan drowned out there.

I used to be a real little troublemaker on here on my old account. Mostly just light trolling with a group of friends. I think I really realised how dumb it all was shortly after my ban when a member of our little clique called me up to boast that he'd lied about having cancer to some staff...

Verrrry tricky question actually, mine often move around 1. Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater 2. Fallout 1 3. Final Fantasy 6 4. Pokemon GSC 5. Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker 6. Fallout New Vegas 7. Battlefield 4 8. Fallout 2 9. Overwatch/2 10. Metal Gear Solid like I say, these change a lot...

You've got a real good handle on the lighting, shading and palettes that Sugimori used to use, great stuff.

https://www.justinbasil.com/translations/sv105 Some interesting reprints in this mini-set. Air Balloon and Eelektrik reprints are going to definitely shake things up a little. Eelektrik will let us see yet another version of the Miraidon archtype which has risen and died a handful of times...

I've got to be honest with you bud, I have zero idea about this stuff. I'm not sure many in the wider TCG community will. I know there's people who are really into the vendor card sticker sheets, perhaps trying to find a discord or reddit community more focused on that will yield you some better...

The issue is to anyone in the know these are clearly fakes, doing the rip is almost certainly just an additional step as proof to the customer.

In fairness that's a common method to prove legitimacy. Official Pokemon cards have an additional layer that the fakes never seem to have and the best way to see that is to rip a card
