Every set has a chase card. OP17 has one that opened higher than any booster pull before it: the Super Alternate Art of Rocks.D.Xebec trades at $8,182 today, weeks into the set's life. For comparison, the Luffy Manga from OP05 took a year to reach that level.
Three reasons it opened this high
- The character. Xebec is the most anticipated reveal in the story for years, and the card game got him before the anime did.
- The tier. Super Alternate Art is a new rarity above the manga tier, with a pull rate the market is treating as the rarest thing in a modern box.
- The English premium. The English print trades at more than double the Japanese one, the widest gap of any current set chase card, which says the demand is coming from the largest market.

What usually happens next
Opening prices on a chase card are set by the people who want it most and the few copies pulled in the first weeks. As boxes keep being opened, supply catches up and the price finds a level below the opening. That happened to every chase card of the last four sets. What is different here is the tier: if Super Alternate Art pull rates are as low as the early market believes, the supply catch up will be smaller than usual. The population report over the next two months will settle it.
The first price of a chase card is a bet on its pull rate. The population report is the answer.
