*groan*

Okay, so they released JAKQ and Dynaman yesterday. I'd saved up nearly 900 V-Gems in preparation for the next pack, and pulled the trigger on the 300-Gem bundle. I got a single Hero and the rest Rares, which might not sting so much if the majority of those Rares were duplicates of cards I already have. I didn't get close to completing either team, and didn't pick up any good new additions to existing teams.

I got so frustrated I did something I *knew* was kinda ill-advised and purchased the 500-V-Gem bundle of the Shinkenger pack. I was hoping for, y'know. Shinkengers. Rares, Heroes, Legends, I didn't care. There were a couple of other teams I like in the set. What could go wrong? I drew a Legend Gao Red, which is cool, although I'm not a Gao fan. I think the rest were Rares. Zero Shinkenger-related cards. Given the Legend and the majority of the Rares were new cards (albeit for teams I don't care about), it was... less disappointing? I guess any draw in which you get a Legend or new cards can't really be called bad.

I realize my expectations are probably off. Most Super Sentai teams are in the game, but I really only care about roughly half of them, mostly the newer ones. Kyuranger aside, it's fair to assume the next several new team packs will focus primarily on the I-think-it's-5 missing early teams.

So now, I'm down to a little over 100 V-Gems (earned more from those cards raising my Hero Power,) but I haven't enhanced my existing good teams or made other teams viable. Gaoranger comes closest, but I think it's now Legend Red, a Rare, and Normal cards, so... not quite. Mostly, I feel foolish. I know a Legend Fest is likely next week, and if I was going to drop 800 V-Gems, I should've waited for a 33-draws for 800 deal.

At least there are multiple new Events, and I can see myself putting some effort into Magiranger, since I'd like to build them out.
