Video summary
The video documents the creator's experience receiving a massive batch of 100 graded Yu-Gi-Oh! cards from PCG, a grading company that has recently implemented significant updates to address long-standing community complaints. Upon opening the box, the creator reveals that PCG has redesigned their Yu-Gi-Oh! slabs to offer a tighter fit and enhanced durability, aiming to reduce card movement during transit. More importantly, they have adjusted their centering criteria to account for industry-wide print inconsistencies common in Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. These new standards mean that minor diamond cuts will no longer result in downgrades unless severe, and centering measurements are now calculated based on the most central reference point, which generally boosts subgrades by 0.5 to 1.0 points. While a flawless 10 still requires a card to be free of any diamond cut, cards with minor imperfections can now achieve a pristine 10 overall grade, striking a balance between preserving perfection and acknowledging real-world printing variations.
Despite these positive policy changes, the creator notes that the results were mixed due to his decision to submit a large volume of "Rarity Collection 5" cards, which suffered from poor print quality and significant whitening on the corners. As he graded each card, it became evident that while the new centering rules helped secure higher subgrades for many cards, the physical condition of the Rarity 5 set often held them back. The creator observed that top-to-bottom misalignments were still penalized heavily, even with the adjustments, and that whitening on corners frequently prevented cards from reaching a nine or ten. He expressed regret over submitting so many of these specific cards without inspecting them closely enough, noting that the print quality issues in this set made it difficult to achieve high grades regardless of the grading company's leniency.
The final tally revealed six 9.5s and no 10s out of the 50 cards from the main batch, a result the creator attributed largely to his mistake of grading too many flawed Rarity 5 cards rather than PCG's grading standards themselves. He highlighted specific successes, such as a Magician card that received a flawless 10 overall despite having slightly diamond-cut edges and some whitening on the corners, demonstrating how the new rules allowed for more forgiving assessments of minor flaws. However, the prevalence of nines across the board, particularly due to corner whitening and edge issues, dampened the excitement. The video concludes with the creator vowing not to submit more Rarity 5 cards in the future and expressing anticipation for a separate box containing older sets and his highly anticipated "Grandmaster" card, hoping that those submissions will yield better results as he moves past the disappointing experience with the recent batch.

In today's video, I got back cards from
PCG and I think there might be a special
update.
What is up everybody? We are back with
another PCG order and I'm about to open
up this box. I'm doing it right now.
This is the regular box and according to
my friends at PCG, which you guys know
I've been doing some grading with PCG
right now because literally now at the
time of recording this PSA is closed
down pretty much everything. CGC's up
their turnaround times to 150 days. BGS
is closing down everything except their
big uh return turnaround times just
because there's so much demand for card
grading right now. No matter what you
think about it, it's very very popular.
So PCG's been an easier option for me
because I can actually get my cards back
in less than half a year. Now they're
also behind quite a bit and they're not
returning cards in a couple of weeks
like they were, but they're still much
faster than my other options right now.
Plus I have a great relationship with
the guys at PCG as well. So it's another
good reason for me to grade there as
well. But as you guys know, they've kind
of been cooking my cards. Like the
centering's been rough, right? Well,
they sent me a note. They actually
texted me and said, "Hey, by the way,
we're sending a note with your order.
You know, check it out on your video and
you can we can get a quick update." So
I'm interested to see what this says.
"Dear Ruxin34 and fans." So you guys got
you guys got the note as well. "Our team
is thrilled to announce that we've heard
your feedback and implemented several
key upgrades to our product and grading
standards." Which is awesome cuz there's
been a couple of main complaints about
PCG. It's been the slab. So the slabs
already got one improvement, but there's
been a lot of I don't know about these
slabs. I'm not sure if I want to grade
if they're going to be in those slabs or
whatever. And then the centering, okay?
So we're going to get into that. The
center the centering's been rough for
us.
Let's go here. We are officially the new
Yu-Gi-Oh! slab version two. We are
officially rolling out a redesigned
Yu-Gi-Oh! slab. Key improvements include
precision fit designed to match the
standard thickness of our regular slabs
with tighter top and side dimensions and
a slimmer inner sleeve to securely hold
your cards. Minimize movement. The snug
fit significantly reduces card movement
and should mitigate labels from shifting
during rough handling in transit. So
that has happened before where where the
labels could move. So apparently that's
been improved as well. Enhanced
durability. Based directly on community
input, these updates provide a sturdier,
stronger and more protective overall
display. So that's all great. Updating
Yu-Gi-Oh! grading standards. Let me let
me just fold it here so we can really
focus in on this cuz I'm excited to hear
what the update is exactly. We know
centering on Yu-Gi-Oh! cards has been a
major pain point due to the
industry-wide print inconsistencies and
strict standard enforcement across
grading companies. To better account for
these widespread printing variations,
we've adjusted our centering criteria.
Diamond cut adjustments. Diamond cut
cards will no longer be downgraded on
centering unless the cut is severe. What
a diamond cut is, it's when the card is
turned one direction or the other and
the borders are thicker at the top,
smaller at the bottom, bigger at the
bottom, smaller at the top, etc. and you
know, it it basically turns the card
inside of the borders. So before you
were getting a downgrade for a diamond
cut card. Well, almost every Yu-Gi-Oh!
card, if you look closely enough, is
somewhat diamond cut. So it has to be
pretty severe now to be uh penalized for
that. Measurement protocol. For diamond
cut cards, centering measurements will
now be calculated for the most central
reference point. This adjustment will
generally result in a 0.5 to 1.0
increase on centering subgrade. So we're
only talking about the centering
subgrade here, not the overall grade. So
normally if I get an 8.5, I could get a
9 or a 9.5 on those same cards. Flawless
10 criteria. To protect the integrity uh
of prestigious flawless 10, card must be
free of diamond cut to achieve this
grade. The flawless is a perfect card,
so I think that is totally
understandable. You don't want it to be
like it has to be perfect, right? It
needs to be as nice as possible and I
think having a diamond cut card wouldn't
make sense on a flawless card. So that
makes sense. Consequently, diamond cut
cards can reach a maximum overall grade
of pristine 10 with 9.5 10 10 10. I
think that's totally fair. We believe
this strikes a healthy balance
preserving the chance for a true
flawless 10 while keeping an overall 10
grade attainable. We hope this change
demonstrate our commitment to addressing
community feedback and offering the best
slabs on the market. High submission
volumes have kept our team working
around the clock to expand operations,
train new staff, and protect our
turnaround times, which made this
release a bit slower than we had
originally planned. Regardless of how
much we grow, we continue to listen,
evolve, and adapt based on your input.
Please keep the constructive feedback
coming. Sincerely, PCG. So, shout out to
PCG. They've heard all the feedback from
the videos and they're like, at least in
my opinion, I thought Some people will
say, "That's not right. They should be
extremely strict and like impossible to
grade." But, as a smaller company, if
you're a harder to grade with, like way
too hard, they were too hard on the
centering. You want to be at least
comparable to other grading companies
because if you're so hard to grade,
you're only going to get nines and 8.5s,
why would you pick them over somewhere
else? You know, they do have a lot of
other things, but it's like, "Well, I
can't ever grade anything cuz I get an
eight on the centering every time." So,
I think them making it more normal,
honestly, I thought they were really
harsh on the centering before, is going
to be better for Yu-Gi-Oh! overall.
Okay, and as I'm getting the boxes out
for the return, they hit me up about an
Express 20 code that they're using. So,
if you use the code Express 20, you can
get Express service for only $20. It's
normally 50. You're getting it regular
price and you get the Express service.
You get it all back a lot faster. So, if
you want to grade your cards for only
$20 each and get them back quickly,
Express 20 is what you use at PCG. You
won't be able to use my Ruxin code, I
don't think, but it'll be better for you
to get Express 20 then. So, I mean, I
would recommend doing that. Okay, so I
don't know what 50 cards this is cuz I
have a lot of cards at PCG. I think it's
like 300 cards. And if you're wondering
about the Grandmaster, that is coming
back. I got an update about that. They
said that's going to be
probably like this week or next week
they're going to send it.
So, I guess that means it's been graded.
I don't know the grade. I don't peek at
any grades. I don't ask for any grades,
but uh FYI,
that is on the horizon. So, keep an eye
out. We're going to have our serialized
card at Grandmaster being graded soon. I
believe a lot of this is Rarity
Collection 5, which I also got an update
uh a couple of comments about how bad
Rarity 5's print was, so that kind of
worried me a little bit. We're going to
start with the first card, which appears
to be a gold label, which is a great
start. 9.5 Infinite Impermanence. And we
got 9.5 centering. Look at that. Look
how beautiful that is. 9.5 9.5 We got a
nine on the surface here.
So, the lighting is kind of bright here
today. I don't know what's going on, but
Infinite Impermanence looks fantastic.
That is very nice. 9.5. See if we can
get another one. Oh, okay, starting off
with another gold label.
9.5 centering, nine on the corners, and
then 9.5 on the others. So, overall,
we're already starting off better. We
got two 9.5s. I don't know how many 10s
we're going to get. Last time we only
got like one, so we'll see if the
centering improvements help.
Uh 9.5 on the Magic Cylinder. This is a
quad 9.5, which beautiful. Maybe Okay,
I'm going to try the old
Let's try this. I think it's the This is
normally really good for the lighting,
but I think this actually might work a
little bit better here. Yeah. Let's try
that. The card itself looks really good.
Yeah, that looks amazing. Okay, three
9.5s in a row, that's great. All right,
we're back to our old silver silver
label, and that is because of centering
8.5. So, I think he said there was a
couple in the old slabs.
Let's see if we can figure out the
difference between the slabs. These feel
the same. I think they're the same. So,
this might just be really bad centering.
I'm looking.
I'm not sure yet. I'm not sure on that
one. Okay, nine on that one. We have
another nine. 8.5 centering as well. So,
two back-to-back 8.5 centerings.
And I think it's the top-to-bottom is
really bad here. Yeah, actually, I see
it now. Okay, it's over there. Okay,
there we go.
All All next one. A lot of Magic
cylinders, we have an 8.5 centering on
the Compulsory Evacuation Device.
Okay, I was enjoying the 9.5 centering
for a second. Let's try the next one. A
nine centering on this one. We have nine
9.5 9 9. I think he was telling me
specific spots where almost every card
was damaged in the same way, the corners
and the edges. Which, looking at a lot
of my rarity five pulls, honestly, the
print was really rough on those. So, I
just made a mistake submitting so many
of these cards. I didn't really look at
them that closely originally thinking,
"Oh, they're out of the pack. Some of
them will be nice." But, I mean, some of
them were nice, but some is a very key
word there. A lot of them were not.
Okay, so And then, by the way, not
everything I sent is rarity five. Some
of the cards I'm coming back that are
coming back as well are old school
cards, other sets, which is good because
I'm ready to stop grading rarity five.
It was a big mistake grading a lot of
these. They are definitely not in the
best shape. All right, we got another
gold label, which is great. Raigeki.
Come on, first 10.
9.5. Okay, so we got a nine on the
corners. So, still overall, a gem mint
9.5 is really good for some of these
stamp cards. Let's see about this next
one. Silver label.
9.5 centering, and then 9 9 9. So, it
looks like the centering Overall, we're
getting much better centering. We've got
some 8.5s, but we're getting a lot more
nines and 9.5s.
Okay, Raigeki again.
Uh 8.5 centering on this one, and then
the Yeah, the It's the top edge. And
that's usually the one that's really
easy to miss. If you're just looking at
the sides, I like it looks pretty good.
And the top is like, you know, there's
only that much versus that much. So, if
you only don't really pay attention, you
can miss the top being uh thicker.
Okay.
Another Raigeki. Man, we got one 9.5 on
the Raigekis. Man, we got a lot of
Raigekis, and they're not pulling it
off.
Uh two 9.5s, two nines.
Mystical Space Typhoon, rarity
collection five.
8.5 centering on this one. The uh, yeah,
the centering is it's all about the top
to bottom. I mean, the left to right's
pretty bad, as well, but it can be hard
to tell on these starlights, too, just
cuz they're so shiny. Okay, MST, gold
label.
Is this our chance?
9.5. Okay, another 9.5. Very nice. So,
we're at five 9.5's versus like maybe 12
9's. Another MST, this is an 8.5 9 9
9.5. I don't know if we have a 10
subgrade yet. Oh, yeah, we did. I missed
it. We had a 10 on this one. 10 on the
surface. Okay, next up we have a
scapegoat 8.5 centering and 9 overall.
All right. Next one, come on. I need to
actually zoom out this a little bit.
Yeah, there we go, so I'm not running
into these cards as much. We got another
nine here with 8.5 centering. Then we
have a another 8.5. This is 8.5 overall.
That's our worst grade yet. So, the
scapegoat not doing too well. I think
rarity five was just, yeah, this was
definitely just not the right move to
grade all these.
Uh, Monster Reborn.
Pretty strong subgrades, 9.5 centering.
I mean, it it does seem a lot easier to
get 9.5 centering. If it's like decent,
you're going to get a decent grade
centering. Another nine.
Then we have a Dimension Shifter, 8.5
centering, three 9's, and then one more.
I even graded Dimension Shifters. I was
just sending all the stamped cards. I
was like, whatever, let's just try them
out. And then a Nibiru, the Primal
Being, 8.5. Wow. So, five 9.5's, no
10's. Rarity five is just cooking us so
hard. All right, we got one more box,
and I'm hoping maybe slightly better.
Slightly better? Hopefully, cuz, I mean,
honestly, five out of 25 is not the
best.
We would like to do better than that.
Oh, wait, I'm getting spoilers. Wait. I
almost got a spoiler, but then I
realized I was getting about to get a
spoiler, and I didn't.
Okay, I'm trying to stack these. They're
a little slick in the sleeves. Grabbing
like 20 at a time is not probably not
the best move. Uh,
I did that with some PSA slabs the other
day. I I grabbed them and tried to pick
them up and then dropped them all in the
trash can.
>> [laughter]
>> That was not great. Okay, the next 25 is
9.5
not quad. We have a nine on edges, but a
9.5 to beeru. Okay, fantastic.
Then we have the ice seller of the white
forest. That's an 8.5 9 8.5 9.5. Plus
I'm not going to lie just in general,
I'm ready to like have something besides
rarity five to look at. We just have so
much rarity five. I didn't even open
that much. I just graded a lot of it. I
graded a lot more than normal cuz we
didn't open as much rarity five as
expected.
I want to check out these slabs. These
two slabs do seem more sturdy
than the old ones. They feel like they
felt like pretty good before, but now
they feel like really solid, you know
what I mean?
Yeah, I like that. So 8.5.
That's good.
Now,
that I say that's good. 8.5 centering.
Yeah, we're we're getting a lot of 8.5
centering as as we do with PCG, but we
are getting a lot more better than 8.5.
Oh,
Ghost Mourner Moonlight Chill first 10.
9.5. Oh, we did get a 10 though. The
centering
centering was a nine, but that would
have to be a 10 I think to get it to the
10 cuz it's two 9.5s and a 10, but
that's a very strong 9.5. So, nice card,
very good.
Then we have a Ghost Mourner Moonlight
Chill 8.5 on the centering giving us a
nine overall. So, only one below a nine
so far, so that's good. They're not like
bad enough.
>> [snorts]
>> Okay, another gold label.
9.5 9.5 9 9.5. So, the Ghost Mourners
overall have been pretty good condition.
Cards do look good in the uh in the
slabs too. Like
they're really showing through with the
uh the holo here.
It's nice, so
they have a little bit of a raised uh if
you like that or not, they have a raised
thing where it's kind of like the
top of the slab kind of pops out a
little bit. It's kind of cool.
Then there is a another Ghost Mourner.
This got a 10 on corners. That's pretty
good for a ready five. Unfortunately,
the 8.5
on the centering.
Then we have a Max C, which got an 8.5
on the centering as well. Okay, this one
Yeah, it's always the top to bottom.
So, I think they they reduced the
diamond cut, but they still are grading
it with the percentages, which I mean
this one if you look at it is pretty
pretty big on the forehead. Okay.
Then we have the Ghost Belle and Haunted
Mansion. Okay, are we going to get any
10s today? I have a feeling we're not
going to. Nine.
Uh nine, 8.5, 999.5.
Okay, come on. We still got a few cards
left. There's also a little box in there
that I'm hoping is a flawless 10, but
it's not. You know, there's no way it is
because we haven't even got a regular 10
yet. 8.5. Uh it's a little box of
something though. So, we're going to
take a look at what it is. The stack's
getting a little crazy over here.
Another nine, three nine nines and a
9.5.
Then we have uh another 8.5 centering.
So, it helped with some with the diamond
cuts, but it seems like the uh the
regular just being off-centered is the
same. All right, Ash Blossom Enjoy
Springs. Wow. A 10, a 9.5, but only
still a nine. That's got to be like as
close to a 9.5. Like if one of those is
a 9.5, I think it gets a nine. Uh 0.5.
Uh Neo Spacian Aqua Dolphin is very cool
as well. Any more
9.5s? Come on. Come on.
Neo Spacian Aqua Dolphin. Okay.
Okay.
Come on, PCG. Help us out here. Neo
Spacian Aqua Dolphin. 8.5, 9.5, 10, 9.5,
8.5 centering. 8.5 centering. Yeah, it's
those foreheads. They all have
foreheads. It's crazy. They all got
brains back there, but they're too big.
Eldlich the Golden Lord quad nine. First
time seeing that today.
We've got a Eldlich the Golden Lord 9.5
centering and then three nines. Okay,
two more cards. Nibiru the Primal Being
8.5 three nines.
One final card. I'm not looking. I'm not
peeking. Please
be a 9.5.
Nibiru the Primal Being nine. So, we
ended up with three eight 9.5s. This was
a mistake to grade all of these Rarity
5. This is a lesson, guys. Don't just
submit cards you pull from packs. You
have to look at them carefully.
And um I may have made a mistake grading
all 50 of these cards at PCG. Not
because it's PCG, but because I graded
cards that were off-centered, sadly, and
not in good shape. They had like nine
overall grades. So, if I graded these
with PSA, I think I would have just
gotten a lot of nines and I'd be really
upset because I wouldn't know to like
have the subgrades. I'd just be like,
"Oh, I got a bad grade." So, yeah,
that's a lesson learned for you guys. If
you do grade cards, don't just submit
them without looking. I mean, I It's not
like I didn't look at them at all, but
like look closely like you're grading
them yourself and then submit them
because
yeah, I made a mistake this time. But
luckily, I do have some cards that I
have actually looked at that are at PCG
that will hopefully come back soon and
are not from Rarity 5.
Uh I would not recommend grading Rarity
5 cards, obviously, because we've done
pretty poorly. But we're not done. There
is another box of PCG Premier Card
Grading. What is it? It's three other
cards. What are these?
Oh, was there not enough room for all
50? Oh, wait, there's three more.
Wait, surprise, surprise, everybody. We
have
Swords of Revealing Light nine. Okay,
three more nines to just rub it in my
face.
A Solemn Judgment. Go. And then a final
card.
A solemn judgment, nine. Oh, that's so
mean.
That's so mean.
Three extra card, you couldn't put like
some big ones in there? Come on, PCG,
help me out here. No, I'm just kidding.
We did we So, what is our best card
today? We got two Ghost Mourners. We got
Nibiru. MST, got to be Raigeki.
Raigeki's got to be the goat.
And Imperm.
Honestly, and then all half the time I
didn't even need to grade some of these
like the
the Dimensional Shifter. Why did I grade
that? I don't know. Let's ask Past
Roxon. Past Roxon, what were you
thinking grading those? Um well, you
see, Future Roxon, I was making a
submission and I just needed to grab a
few cards and
I got a little carried away. You know
that grading Dimensional Shifter is
you're that's a playable card. You know
not to do that. When you
Well, here's the thing. Um I thought it
looked really cool and if it was graded,
it might be even cooler. How do you feel
now, Past Roxon? [music]
I I think I might have made a mistake,
Future Roxon, but can you be nice to me,
maybe? Okay. All right, buddy. I'm not
trusting you anymore, though. Oh, come
on, man. Okay, we figured it out
straight from from Past Roxon's mouth.
He he was just thought they looked cool,
so we can't really can't really trust
his judgment anymore. We're going to
have to go with Future Roxon, who has
now seen the grades. Future Roxon knows
the result before he submits them. So,
he'll have a little bit better of an
idea of what to grade. So, cool update
from PCG. We definitely did see some
better centering grades in here, but I'm
not going to grade any more rarity five.
Well, I might have some more there
because I did submit a lot of cards, but
I'm really excited for the Grand Master.
That card was a Japanese card, so I have
high high hopes that the thing's going
to do well. All right, the PCG rarity
collection was rough. They told me ahead
of time, "Hey, yes, rarity collection
sets in bad shape, so be be ready." So,
it was obviously kind of, you know, kind
of a sad return. It's a little bit
better than it's been, but I got another
one back immediately and I'm like, "You
know what? Just make it a mega 100 card
return." And some of these cards are not
rarity collection. So, hopefully
we can get some card grades that are not
like, you know, nines or whatever. You
know, let's try to get something above
that. Okay, next up we have a Oh, wait,
there is rarity. Oh, there's rarity
five. Okay, definitely going to include
this in here cuz we want to get through
this rarity five cuz I have low
expectations. 8.5 centering.
Uh this came back like a day after. Like
these literally immediately came back.
Oh, two. We got the fable ten surface.
That's incredible. Nine edges, nine
corners on the OCG product, too. Wow.
That's quite unfortunate to say the
least. Uh OCG product Superstar Slayer
Typhon Sky Crisis.
Ouch, another nine. Let's Can we get
something above a nine? Let's go. Come
on. Oh, an overframe. Okay, so I have
some overframes in here. Rarity
Collection 5. 8.5 centering. Yeah, the
centering is terrible on this.
Man, the centering was so bad in that
set. Why was it so bad? Uh 8.5 surface,
too. Wow, it must have had some print
lines and some scratches. That's
not good. Not good at all. So, 8.5 Wow,
8.5 on the the overframe. I might have
just have to crack that.
Ooh, there we go. All right, now we're
talking. We're getting some good. We got
a 9.5. That close. This nine This is a
ten. We get a ten overall.
>> [music]
>> 9.5 gem mint Stardust Star Junk Synchron
prismatic secret rare extended art.
Thank goodness, we got something nice.
That That'll bring the mood up a little
bit. I get I should have a lot of OCG of
these. So, hopefully we get 9.5s or
better.
Red-Eyes Black Dragon. 8.5. It's from
Rarity Collection. I don't have high
high hopes for the Rarity Collection
stuff. It's all done pretty bad.
Ooh, got got GOT MAGICIAN. AND ALL THE
NINE CORNERS, are you kidding me? Half a
grade. And if you look closely at that
corner right there,
I can't really zoom in super well, but
there is some whitening on that one.
Dadgum, look at that. 10 on centering.
10 on centering at PCG. That's insane.
And And as they said, they tilted cards,
you know, like you can't really get away
with that on the 10 centering.
>> [music]
>> Then we have the
uh honestly though, looking at it, I
don't know why it's 10 centering cuz
look the
Actually, it No, no. The It was not on
10. It was flawless 10. You couldn't be
diamond cut. So, this can be diamond
cut, and I think it is diamond cut. It's
slightly diamond cut. But because it's
not a flawless 10, they didn't mark down
for that, and it still had good enough
in the ranges. So, that's amazing. Nine
corners, 9.5 edges, and 10 surface.
So close to a 10.
Okay, another rarity collection. Yep,
naturally. I mean, just move on past
those. Yeah, okay.
Okay, the Utopia Dragonair interesting.
The Starlights are doing better. I'm
okay with that. The prismatic secret's
doing better. This got an 8.5 on
centering.
Ooh, 8.5. Where is it so bad? Oh, the
back's pretty bad. I don't love that
back centering is I still don't love how
harsh they still are harsh on centering.
Even with the adjustments, it's better.
It's more reasonable.
But
I don't know. I guess these days you
kind of have to be harsh because there's
so many people grading, so many things.
I mean, it it is tough. So, you you
can't just like give them 10 just
because I want a 10. They're like,
"Well, just get a 10." Yeah, so I mean,
you know, I'm not going to criticize
them for that. Uh Oh, okay, eight
centering.
>> [laughter]
>> I say that we get an eight centering. 10
surface, nine edges, 9.5 corners. Look
how bad that centering is. Oh my gosh,
it is bad.
Yeah, that that is that is an eight.
That might even be worse than an eight.
That is terrible centering. Beautiful
looking card though.
Gagagaga girl, 999
across the board. Wow, OCG cards getting
nines.
OCG cards getting nines. Corners.
Is there's Okay, the top two corners all
have a little whitening on them. Man, I
thought I could count on OCG to get us
some some crazy stuff, but there there
even they have their flaws.
Ooh, okay. The uh Starting Venom Fusion
Dragon for Heavenly Dragons, that is 9.5
9.5 9 and 9. So, the surface and edges
held it back. Pretty rough. Pretty
rough. Okay, come on. Now's the time.
Another nine. Okay, 9 9 and 9.5 and 10.
Why is the centering so bad on all
these? This one's pushed that way and a
little bit up
to get the nine. The corner.
What do we get? Nine corners. Yeah, that
corner has whitening on it. Man, why is
there so much whitening on these?
Sad times, man. Oh, I was hoping this
would bring us up. Cyber Dragon nine
dude.
9.5 9 and 9 and 10 on the surface.
Incredible All the corners.
They all have whitening.
Why do they all have whitening? OCG,
what happened? They do have whitening.
So, edges that those are harder to tell
sometimes. I think the cut is weird.
It's hard to tell but through the
through the slab, but another nine.
Okay, come on.
Uh my Zeus. Uh even my Zeus couldn't
pull through. We can't even get 9.5s.
This is rough.
The corners are Yeah, corners are
cooked.
By cooked, I mean like they have a
little whitening on them, but
10 surface too. Like these OCG surfaces
are passing for what they are. 9.5
centering is great, but I mean corner
you get nines on them two things it
doesn't help.
Okay.
All right, yeah. We're already five. We
know what to expect there.
Diabellstar the Black Witch.
Wow, and look at there. It's the top two
corners every time.
Top two corners just in
not the best shape, sadly. 9.5 centering
and 10 service again, like strong strong
subgrades.
Gate Guardian Collection.
We have rarity five. Okay, we we know
what to expect there.
Oh, look, a rarity five 9.5. Wait, with
nine centering. This was almost a quad
9.5, but the centering did hold it back
a little bit.
Centering, back centering, it's got to
be back centering and top to bottom,
like the hardest to see. Centering held
us back from like a really strong 9.5.
Uh Obelisk the Tormentor, nine rarity
collection. We have a Winged Dragon of
Ra rarity collection. Yeah, I mean, what
do we expect? Rarity fives with
lightness down left and right. We can
just fly through those. Uh
yep, okay.
We're lucky to even got a 9.5 and then a
nine. So, so far three 9.5s out of What
is that? 25 cards?
At least one of them or two of them are
over frames, so that's good, I guess.
All right, we have this tiny box. I'm
not going to get duked by this again. I
think this has like two cards in it or
one card. I don't know. Well, let's do
this first before we go to the last box.
Okay, come on, baby.
Oh, it it's rarity five. Okay.
Please tell me the whole box of the
other one isn't rarity five. I submitted
way too much rarity five. Oh.
If I could take it back, I would. I
messed up. All right, we have another
over frame. Mirror Jade, this is rarity
five as well, so shocker, we got a 9.5,
but it's a very nice looking card or a
nine, sorry. I wish we got a 9.5.
We got a Drag Oh, our Starlight Dragon
with the nine. Oh, 9.5 centering, 9.5
surface. Is it the corners again?
Um
wait.
Edge, I see a little whitening there.
Little whitening.
Man, just the slightest whitening
knocking us down. Okay.
Next up is Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Oh my
gosh, we are getting annihilated. I
thought this was going to help us. I
don't know if it is. I think we're going
to get less 9.5 in this
in the second half of the video. Uh it's
all bunch of rarity five. That's not
good. That's not good at all. Oh look, a
Red-Eyes Quad 9.5.
So yeah, I mean you see a 9.5 PCG, you
know it's you know it's in good
condition. So that is that says
something about their labels. I mean
they they're not letting back at all.
9.5 on the Red-Eyes. That's a fantastic
one to get a 9.5 on.
Another gold, Skull Servant Quad 9.5.
Look at rarity five.
Making a run. Are we going to get a 10
in this video? I think if you get a 10,
you know that card is strong. You know
that card is super strong.
Uh I:P Masquerena, nine. The stack of
nines is just so high. Another I:P
Masquerena, another Okay, another nine.
This is a Zeus. That's a Quad and nine.
Then we have a Utopia Dragonar, nine.
This is a full art Starlight. Eight.
Then we have a Mirror Jade, nine. 8.5
corners. Wow, they must have Oh wow,
that corner is jacked. Yep, that that
makes sense.
I mean so far I as much as I don't like
the nines, they're pretty fair. Uh 9.5
on the full art. There we go. Nine
corner It's all the corners, man.
>> [music]
>> That corner is pretty bad. I see why it
got a nine. So overall, 9.5 centering,
9.5 edges, 10 surface for the 9.5. We're
I think we did get more I think we only
got five 9.5s last time. We got six this
time. That's good.
Dominus Purge. Okay.
Dominus Purge. Why did I grade those?
They're playable. I don't know. Uh just
full art. Super Polymerization. All
right. Yeah, uh another silver. We have
another full art. The full arts have
been rough, the ultras especially.
They're tough. We did get one right
there.
We have a Wake Up Your Elemental Hero,
10 surface.
Then we have a Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon,
nine. Then we have Shooting Quasar
Dragon with a nine. Can we get something
cool to end this? Come on. Singularity.
Then we have a Blue-Eyes White Dragon
nine. There's one more card, the last
card of the video, and Blue-Eyes. Okay.
Six 10s out of 50 card or six 9.5s, no
10s.
Out of 50 cards. That That's rough. And
I'm regretting sending all those rarity
five cards, but you know, you can't take
back the past, all right? So,
we do have a lot more cards coming back
from PCG. Seeing all these recent ones
by serial, I'm praying.
I'm praying it's not a nine, but
honestly, I really don't know. I really
don't know what to expect these days.
So, we there's still a lot more cards at
PCG. You'll be seeing more of those.
Uh I figured I could bind these two
because well, I thought this would Yeah,
be a little bit of a
you know, lift lift up, pick me up sort
of. We got a couple of nice cards there,
but a lot [music] of nines.
