Northern borland's card is more than 50% of my deck value.

Also, how do common cards suddenly become extremely valuable? I have this one which has its market value at 37.50, higher than the value of any legendary that I have.

Idk really, I don't have good strategies. I just count on luck to get good cards and junk the less valuable ones as the deck fills up.

Some guy buys it for a super high price to unnaturally inflate its value, so their entire deck is worth more.
Also, do you guys like my new flag?

Because Riemstagrad sold it to one of his puppets for 360.00 (probably just to move cash). It will definitely fall in value very soon, as new copies are being released in packs more than once a day. I would strongly advise you to sell it for 5.00 while that bid is still there. Legendary cards are the only ones that consistently hold value way above the junk value (usually over 1000% above). Most Epic cards are valued at just junk value or slightly above, and just a handful of them (mostly of the very prominent players) consistently hold value at least several times higher than junk value. Among lower cards, very few are genuinely valuable, and most of those that are valued well above the junk value are just temporarily inflated by market manipulators.

Hmm, I see how it works. Thanks a lot for the advice.

Yes the flag looks good, the coat of arms fits in well.

You are welcome. Before making any decision about any card with market value well above the junk value, I always click on 'Trade History' and see whether past sales were legit (i.e. between random players) or just insider trading (perfectly legal in this game). And if I can't tell from the names that one player is a puppet of another (some names are very explicit), I click on the player, check past trades and see if there were a lot of trades, especially gifts, between that trader and some other. If you see some nation constantly giving gifts to another, you can bet your ass it's a puppet.

Well, yes, I'll admit I've done that a few times too, to bring all the higher value cards on one account. Also, do you think it's good to buy rare/ultra rare cards, especially if you don't have a lot of cash to buy higher value cards?

You have to be very careful. You can start by hunting for cards selling below junk value (I'm trying to buy a lot right now). Occasionally you'll get Legendary cards. If you sell them for good price (e.g. The Northern Light does not care about overpaying for them), you'll have some capital for buying. Sometimes you can buy very cheaply. Just beware of Koem Kab - if he jumps in, you are not buying cheaply. Try not to bid above market value, as somebody may well meet your bid at that price (even if you originally reply to a very low bid).

Okay, I'll remember that. Koem Kab though, that guy shocks me how he pretty much has a monopoly on cards.

He has a lot of puppets (and I have never even created any other nation). I was actually occasionally able to make him run with tail between his legs. Because I have more copies of some (very few) cards than he does. At least one I was even able to do arbitrage on him. But usually I just leave when he shows up in my auction.

That's amazing, and still you have the top deck here.

Also, I saw only now that deck size can be expanded beyond 50. I'd assumed it was some sort of premium feature.

Basically, the greatest opportunities for cheap buying arise when somebody gets a Legendary card in a pack, wants to cash in, sees a bid much higher than junk value (actually such a bid will be shown immediately after you turn the card over) that was simply left from some old auction or perhaps placed by someone just as a marker (in order to be notified of auctions) and is still much lower than market value. Sometimes (not often) you are able to buy just one penny above that bid. That is, if nobody else shows up. Or maybe somebody with very small bank. I always check. If the only other bidder has a small bank, I just bid the size of that bank in the last seconds. He can't raise, and he has only a minute to junk some cards to increase his bank. After probably first wasting some seconds trying to post a higher bid and getting a message of insufficient funds.

You have to pay out of your bank. The price of each expansion (always by 50) rises as the square of the number of your expansion. I.e. 1.00 for the first, 4.00 for the second, 9.00 for the third etc. Recently I had to pay 81.00 to expand from 450 to 500. The next one will cost me 100.00.

My deck is valued at 6.05 but I cannot find anybody to sell stuff to.

I see Frisbeeteria buying epic cards on the market currently, and they seem to have a huge bank.

Yep! If their subordinates feel as though they are mistreated, they are very much able to go take their services elsewhere. Otherwise, they ought to sit down and shut up, since they likely chose to work where they do.
