Take A Sneak Peak At The Upcoming Yu-Gi-Oh ‘High Speed Riders’ Booster Set!

As we posted last week, the next Yu-Gi-Oh expansion, High Speed Riders, is right around the corner. Promising to bring back some of the most popular cards of the 5D’s era, (focusing especially on some of Jack Atlas’ trademark monsters,) while introducing new monsters, spells, traps and archtypes to boost your deck, is it hard to see why we’re excited?

We got the chance to open up some preview boosters packs from the set, where we found a good mix of old an new cards alike, with the classics getting some surprising rarity changes to go with their repackaging. Here’s what we pulled from our four boosters:

As a nostalgia junkie, it’s great to see these 5D’s cards getting more love, complete with their straight reprints, or added support from some of the new cards featured. Even then, the best is yet to come, with featured cards like Goyo Predator, PSY-Framelord Omega, and Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Abyss still eluding us. Let’s just say you’ll know what we’ll be tearing open on the October 2nd release date.

The full set includes:

27 Commons

12 Rares

10 Super Rares

6 Ultra Rares

5 Secret Rares
