- Updated To summon a Link monster, you must send a number of monsters from the field to the grave equal to the Link number on the card

The raw-and-grade route requires: finding raw copies that actually look gradable inspecting photos carefully avoiding sellers hiding flaws paying taxes, shipping, and marketplace fees inspecting the card again in person paying grading fees, shipping, insurance, and supplies waiting while the card is at PSA accepting the risk that the card comes back a 9 or lower Buying the PSA 10 is cleaner
