How Yu-Gi-Oh! sets usually behave
Value concentrates hard: across 481 measured Yu-Gi-Oh! sets, the single top card typically holds about 13% of a set's total card value.
New Yu-Gi-Oh! sets have typically settled about 47% below their release-week price, with most of that easing done within roughly 13 weeks (measured across 49 recent releases).
Over the first 30 weeks after release, that easing runs about 28% deeper than the market's own drift.
Across 71,958 measured breakaway moves in our archive, upward moves outnumber drops about 1.5 to 1.

“One active week” means the daily market price changed in only one week of the move window. A single-week jump on an otherwise flat quote can be a stale price rather than a sustained move.
