I see you are a person of culture
E4 when seeing expensive card
last day to get your votes in!
pretty unsurprising results, although i think this is the first time that the regular art for the tag team outperformed the special art
Again, the desire for convention. I think frlg blastoise ex is phenomenal and deserves all the praise it gets. It’s a cheap card too so it has nothing to do with value. It’s bizarre and interesting. Dark and memorable. A koike classic.
The Arita Blast, while excellent, isn’t in my mind any better in any meaningful way. Both very different, both great.
What’s shocking to me is not more votes for one of Nishida’s finest cards ever made, VS blastoise. Blows me away. The fact that Saitou cards or some other bland modern ones rank above that is bizarre.
Sad how few great blastoise cards there are, he’s like the best pokemon ever.
I voted CD but that card doesn’t live up to the illustration. Galaxy proto is closer, but still. Using another Sugimori Blastoise in Base was genius.
This is Blastoise. One of the most definitive, badass, standard-setting Sugimori moments, and there’s been an awful lot of those.
8.88/10???
people are crazy
Flop 6 with 5 and I’m happy with that top 5!!
This time i can almost fully agree with the results, call it nostalgia but the early releases, including stock arts, look so much better than the later released ones. Perhaps the only one i would have placed higher is the pokemon go one but i think the stamp is holding it back for some people
Blastoise hasn’t had an S tier art.
Arita is close though.
