Values: median of Cardmarket / TCGplayer price guides in £ (hover a version for its sources). Yu-Gi-Oh! uses each printing's own TCGplayer price where listed.
* Pull odds are estimates: typical rates for each rarity in this era of the game, divided by how many cards share that rarity in the set. Real odds vary by set and print run — treat them as a guide, not a promise.
