(2) Black/White Kyurem, N Premium Packs, Keldeo Distribution [1/24]

given that there are some PR's tomorrow, it's kind of sad that they're not releasing more news about plasma storm. Oh well, this will just have to suffice

Haven't they released as much as they traditionally do? I think what's lacking here are leaks from foreign pre-releases. We usually have scans for about 80% of the deck a week before the first US pre-releases, let alone the day before.

On the plus side, it's moar excitinggggg!

I don't want them to release the scans because I'm 99% sure I'm going to a PR tomorrow and I want to be suprised! Anyway the Keldeo is awesome and helped my pokédex.

Okay, I just noticed this:

these packs will introduce our Boundaries Crossed-exclusive Black Kyurem and White Kyurem cards to Japan (and possibly our exclusive Black Kyurem-EX and White Kyurem-EX too)

Those full arts aren't exclusive.

Yeah that's pretty much what I meant. From a collector's point of view there's nothing wrong with them keeping secrets like that. However from a player's point of view trying to guess what useful cards will be kept in/left out/added could be a real nightmare. Remember how people were outraged about ether not being in BCR? We knew about that several weeks before the PR's. Now imagine a similar thing happening tomorrow (A highly hyped card like Colress for example being left out of the set) It would really mess up hours of testing you could've done before the set's release, bringing you back to square one.

IMO Colress not being in the set wouldn't piss me off

 

[The Pikachu Mafia]

Well that's why it was just an example
