Popular Twitch streamer Moistcr1tikal recently hosted a livestream where he opened up 34 boxes ofYu-Gi-Ohcards in the hopes of pulling an extremely rare card called Ten Thousand Dragon.
About an hour into the stream, Moistcr1tikal managed to do just that, and erupted in excitement after pulling theYu-Gi-Ohcard. He then showed his girlfriend, expecting her to share in his celebration. However, Moistcr1tical gets a bit disappointed over the fact that his girlfriend doesn’t seems as excited as him over his successful pull, with her even suggesting that he might have been only joking at first.

Ten Thousand Dragon is worth over a thousand dollars for many fans of the card game, with listings of it on Ebay ranging anywhere from $1,000 to $4,000 in price. The card isone of the most expensive in all ofYu-Gi-Oh, and can be summoned by the user sacrificing monsters whose combined Attack and Defense add up to 10,000 or more. Ten Thousand Dragon was created by Konami in celebration of ten thousand Official Card Game (OCG) cards being created, with both its effect and name reflecting the celebration.
Ten Thousand Dragon differs quite a bit from other expensive cards in the OCG in that it is relatively new in thepopular trading card game. Other expensiveYu-Gi-Ohcards have gained their rarity over the course of many years, but Ten Thousand Dragon is instead rare because of its extremely low pull rate and limited number of copies having only been created just a few months ago.
A lot has changed since Yu-Gi-Oh was first inventedover twenty years ago, from the fundamental rules of the game to specific card effects. Over ten thousand OCG cards have been created, makingYu-Gi-Ohone of the largest card games in the world in terms of pure scope. The franchise also continues to be popular, spanning not only the trading card game, but also video games, manga, and other media formats.
Thefree-to-play mobile titleYu-Gi-Oh Duel Linksreleased for mobile devices in 2016, becoming a hit for both old and new players alike. The mobile game is comparable to the likes ofHearthstoneandGwentin how it translates physical cards into a digital space. With over twenty years under its belt, it seems like theYu-Gi-Ohfranchise isn’t going anywhere any time soon, especially with people like Moistcr1tikal continuing to bring it attention.
