Waifu cards, which feature full-art female trainers, tend to fetch significantly higher prices in Japan compared to their English versions
If you are in the business for some slow card quality then this is fine
each deck also comes with a 2-card Collector Booster Sample Pack, 1 Foil-Etched Display Commander, 10 double-sided tokens, 1 Helper card, 1 life tracker, and 1 deck box
On its own merits, this would already be insanely good, as enabling a Mana Crypt that taps for 3 colorless mana, a Basalt Monolith that can go infinite with Kinnan on turn 3, or a Birds of Paradise that taps for 2 mana of any color is ridiculous value
It's also an answer to [Screaming Nemesis], which ruins the lifelink of Atraxa or Valgavoth, so mono-red might be stopped just by playing this card
In our opinion, the Sapphire/Steel starter deck is the better of the two for a few reasons
