Disney Lorcana exploded from a $50 D23 promotional set into one of the world’s most popular trading card games. In only three years, it has sold nearly 3 billion cards, produced five-figure collectibles and inspired hours-long product-launch lines.

But Lorcana also releases four sets a year and retires relatively new cards from competitive play. Is that necessary to keep the game balanced—or a strategy designed to keep Disney fans buying?

In this episode we cover:

-Lorcana’s origin

-How the game works

-The millennial nostalgia behind its success

-The most valuable cards

-Whether this is a lasting game or a collectible bubble
