Yugioh Advanced Tournament Pack 2014 Volume 2

Photos of the Hippo token from the new #yugioh tournament pack hailing the release of Hippo Carnival from The Duelist Advent! I almost forgot about it with all the DUEA booster openings but the new tournament pack features two tokens; the Hippo token for the Hippo Carnival quick play spell card and the ubiquitous Kuriboh. I'm hoping that the next few tournament packs will feature the other hippos so I can get a set, like the Mecha Phantom Beast tokens that came out a while back.

The other cards are kinda ho-hum but hey, Cyber-Stein will be pretty useful.


Shinies and tokens.

Yu-gi-oh! The Duelist Advent (ザ・デュエリスト・アドベント) DUEA-JP unboxing

The latest #Yugioh booster series has released in Japan today so I decided to do a quick unboxing video!

I'm happy to say that the new Shadoll archetype is looking pretty strong with its ability to recycle from the graveyard and search from the deck. The main card, Shadoll Falcon, seems to be really hard to get though and the key fusion card is sitting on a tidy 2000 yen at the moment. It's like Artifact Cadeceus all over again.

Unfortunately it seems that the card quality has dropped again with many of the cuts not having quite the clear edge but at least the printing quality is as per normal. Stop being such cheapasses Konami and get some real blades!
